ya...for KL ma
in sabah...everything is more expensive than KL
if i'm not wrong....the torqNM 10w-40 is selling like RM105 in KL
but selling RM128 in sabah...but he give me RM120
might want to try your suggestion but i really dn't know where got sell and i wonder what price is it at
5w-30 must have been very smooth pickup
*
had tried using pennzoil semi 5-30w, engine very noisy.. alot of tappet noise. switch back to 10-30w..

meaning if use 10-30w, less tappet noise? blink.gif
*
I start off with 10-40w,
then change to 20-50w(as reco by service manual) , car become very heavy.. no power.
goback to 10-40w,, ok.
change to 10-30w, wah, better performance.. then become more ambition, change to 5-30w. pickup good, but engine quite noisy. so now use 10-30w mineral , change every 5000km..

yup u got a point there hopefully my sc allow me to bring my own oil.


Added on May 9, 2011, 1:38 pmi just want to clarify something does using HID light reduce the lifespan of the battery,cause my friend said so that's why he is not using so is it true.
*
actually hid consume only 35watts instead of halogen 55watt.
the main drainage of battery is the hid drains 15amps on startup..
so in using hid, don't on/off/onoff too often

???? buy now and regret later???. 1.3 is underpower. this 1.6 should be perfect.

yours are both even thn good
but mine only makan right side....after last time they change the right side already
until now my right side still like brand new
plus....the rear wheel is free spinning one...move when the front wheel move, stop when the front wheel stop
nothing is controlling the rear wheel actually
so i dn't know if it's necessary to service the rear brake...cuz i rather put a better brake pad at front brake
*
my pad, each side got 2 pcs, one like new n other makan. left n right wheels also got problem, just right side one more serious.

blm rear drum brake jammed inside. those underwarranty, pls ask sc to check..
loke mine, replaced outside...gotto pay...


Added on June 4, 2011, 1:29 pmah.... a piece of advice for rear drum brake user

Don't pull your handbrake too hard. it will jam up.

i think this apply to a poorly design brake.. it happen to nazaria also.
