Just a gentle reminder to all Inspira future owner, make sure that you check properly the batery terminal. It should be tighten properly n not loose. It happen to me when I received the car. Funny that it happen to broTs1 n others. Why P has not check on this really baffles me. So pls double check the battery connection before signing the release form..

Just check the two +ve and -ve terminal of the battery. Both must be well tighten. As mentioned by Bro Kwokwah, the car dealers loosen the terminal for storage purposes but they did not tighten it or forgot to do so..very dangerous as what had happen to bro ts1. Pls check when receiving the new car..

I did PPS for my black Inspira early this month, & that was one of the worst thing I've ever done to my car (my car is not even 6 months old...). I understand that after applying PPS, the company claim that Ur car's paint won't fade & Ur car will get showroom-like shine for years. Plus, after reading some of the newspaper articles posted in their website, I had this impression that after applying PPS, U just have to wash Ur car regularly & any dirt or whatever U can just wipe clean. So I thought okla, since I dun really have time to really take care of my car & as most of U guys here know, black car can be very difficult to take care of.

I spend quite a substantial amount to have PPS for my car plus I added about RM120 for windscreen protectant (somewhat like Rain-X). That very weekend (I applied PPS on Thursday), watermarks started to appear on the car. Granted I didn't rinse the car over after rain. Ok fine, the company said they dun guarantee against watermarks. But since the PPS was so high-tech, I find it difficult to believe it couldn't even prevent watermarks from forming. & prior to applying PPS, my car didn't have any watermarks. Ok, so I sent the car back to the company & they cleaned it using a special cleaner costing about RM80 (after discount) & told me I shud rinse my car after rain. Funny enuff, right after I got outta the shop, it rained & when I got home, the watermarks started to appear edi.

Nowadays it's rainy season. & my car has become sorta watermark magnet. Even immediately after washing, if it rains, watermarks would appear. & those watermarks will only disappear after using that special cleaner. So, instead of getting easier to care for, now I find that it's become more cumbersome & my car require more care than before. Previously my car hardly have any watermarks at all.

So I shud've been a member with those car wash providing waxing service like Shine Shine or whatever. & I just wished I could just peel this PPS coating away. Haih...

huh Bro Tenno.. this is serious. I always thought PPS will be an added advantage and not a create more problem. Your experience showed that these extra coating have the their own disadvantage. There are not perfect products.. I always thought teflon is a wonder material. Somehow something went wrong during the coating process perhaps?..whatever it is, you should get a refund and not having to pay for more.

I wished that was the case... but during the 1st time I brought my car back also the company already said this product does not guarantee that my car won't get scratches or watermarks.. fine la, but how come a substance as high-tech as Teflon (the slipperiest substance known to man) cannot prevent these things ? & as I said, my car was just fine before applying PPS, got watermark also I can just wash it away...now become watermark magnet edi.

Exactly. You got a point there. The before and after case is always valid. I found it hard too believe its in their clause that warranty minus the watermarks.. To me how could they sell the product if there is significant risk of getting watermark.. and now customers have to fork out RM80 for the cleanser??? Thats is simply making profit out of a known defect product. This in not cheap product..RM700+.
