guys, how many sprk plugs do we have in the BLM? Plus, which type is better for use on our cars? Will there be any difference if we change the spark plug? Reason being, i gotta do major service within the next week and it's gonna kill me. Might as well make it worth while.

QUOTE(MR_alien @ May 25 2011, 10:06 PM) based on booklet is every 20k KM and that is how much the spark plug can last as well unless u use platinum or iridium QUOTE(zeone @ May 25 2011, 10:06 PM) If, however, yu've changed to eg Iridium types, then yu need 2change yr spark plugs only after 100k km!! every 20k km? huh...i had a friend driving the older saga version 7yrs no change spark plug. still stock apparently. |

QUOTE(+Newbie+ @ May 26 2011, 11:51 AM) Well, they do have schedule. The Saga FL just came out recently and we're even getting an official 1.6 Saga FL. Don't expect any major changes after this until maybe 2.5 years later, unless Proton want's to suddenly change their product life cycle from 5 years to 3 years. I get butthurt even though mine is a year old model It's becoming increasingly clear to me that the CVT Saga we saw is just a mule for them to test the new CVT transmissions they are getting for future models. Proton did announce that they are changing transmission suppliers to get more flexibility with gear ratios and also CVT. They might be testing that now. I bought mine early last year also I feel butthurt wei ... imagine those who bought it recently. It's still to early to tell. No one owns one yet. Check out those auto Persona IAFMs and see what's their FC lar. The Saga should be better than that due to better power to weight ratio. Assuming they didn't change the gear ratios lar. Thanks for sharing!!! I'm sure it'll be useful info for the FL owners. |

Added on June 1, 2011, 7:22 am Mayb nxt time do ask yr mech for reason? Kenot understand how a good branded oil of correct grade can cause serious damage to any engine... [/quote] If i rmb correctly, ppl bring their own castrol but damn horrible grade wan. so it corrodes the inside of the engine. good branded is good branded but dunno why the oil they bring was either too thick of something so it just kills the car then later they have to clean out the whole engine. |

QUOTE(jetjet @ Jun 3 2011, 02:53 PM) Hi guys. Does your car have this problem where the black stain keeps appearing from the door handle and the side mirror? Please refer to the pictures attached. from my point of view, looks like dirt that got inside your handle area decided to get washed out. It's even more obvious if you have a white car the stain is not very obvious at the 2nd pic but usually it is very obvious. btw, please add my name to the proud user list.. |

QUOTE(SiuYi @ Jun 9 2011, 10:43 AM) k_eyezax SiuYi, you use the P or D type rubber for the doors? I actually saw those two being sold by the same seller but I dunno which is better and why. lol Insuflex mostly DIY rite?insuflex, i dare not say it is 100% effective, but at least it is better then nothing at all. as for the door rubber line which im using, a thicker version to replace the oem rubber line, the door closing sounds tighter, like persona door."kup", not "pang"..that rubber line really is a catch and my family likes it alot.worth the buck. |
