Windscreen:

(1) Go renew with car annual insurance for RM600 (double layer + labour). The premium is RM15 for each RM100 insured (I think not yet increase). Therefore RM600 coverage = RM90 premium extra to pay on top of the car insurance.

(2) Fastest/Easiest procedure to claim: Wait few months after renew/add-in windscreen coverage. Then, call up agent/insurance to ask for "approved panel workshop list". Normally they have it in a booklet or can find from website. Call up several of it, ask for quote (incl. labour) to ensure it is RM600 or below. Otherwise you need to pay for the extra.

Once you choose which workshop you like, drive there with your insurance cover-note/policy, inform the guy. They'll do everything, i.e. tel contact insurance to confirm, take before-pic, replace windscreen, take after-pic, etc. Then you drive away without paying single-cent with the windscreen fixed (replaced)  thumbup.gif

I've done it couple of times already during the first few years, every year also crack once (real one, not tipu), until claims dept also suspect. But recent few years, no crack (touch wood) and RM90 wasted every year  tongue.gif

How about tipu 1? laugh.gif

Follow same procedure, only two difference:
(1) During add-in windscreen coverage when renewing your annual insurance, just ensure the insurance company does not insist to inspect the windscreen before accepting coverage.
(2) Do not claim immediate, wait several months. Best is wait till 11th month. Cause windscreen coverage is once only. If you buy in Jan, break in Feb and fix it (free under covered). Then Jun break again. If you do not pay another RM90 after the Feb fix, then there is no more windscreen coverage.

Normally if still can drive, if break in Feb, I'll wait till Nov/Dec to fix and claim it. Then at least if break in next 2 months, I already renew windscreen coverage in the following Jan.

Note that windscreen insurance is not like car accident insurance. Car if buy 1-yr insurance in Jan, if you accident in Feb, fix in Mar (free claim). Then Apr accident, fix in May (free claim also). Then accident again in Jun, fix in Jul (free claim too), ... , etc. Next year, no insurance company want to accept you  tongue.gif

Thanks for your info..

But how to ensure the insurance company does not inspect the windscreen before accepting coverage? hmm.gif

Thx for all the input. I'm not going to heavy use on this car, only on weekend drive, normal tesco, dinner etc. So, if I bought a wira, and it face radiator heat problem. Is it hard to solve?

Plan to buy a 10-12k wira. With 4-5k extra for repairing. Hope I'm good luck enuf.

Since you going to spend 4-5k to repair..I think it is very good already..just make sure you get genuine parts..4-5k can done a lot repairing job..

i only having this as weekend ride, tesco and balik kampung. Plan to drive it for another 2 -4 years. Mainly will be city driving.

So, should I just buy a 1.3 and save RM 1k or RM 2k instead of buying 1.5. Then can use the money to service the car or wateva.

Sorry for asking long, coz in tight budget here.

Guys, got a question want to ask..

Half year ago, I skimmed my brake disc and change Bendix Metal King brake pad, after that actually I don't feel any improvement on my braking..just that the "kok kok kok" and skirl(but it come after after few months) is missing..

So I want to know, why my brake like this? Is because my master pump or brake booster "kong" soon?

Master pump as I search online only cost RM125..not sure about brake booster..anyone has experience in this?
