yeah its normal, mine also sometimes stop sometimes no stop, doesn't really matter if u on or off econ mode. but if on econ mode, "normally" will auto stop . If dont want it to auto stop, put gear in neutral, and release brake. (use handbrake of coz tongue.gif)

Yup.. Its normal, unless u put gear to "n" and release ur break.


If u wish ur engine not "die" wen u press break, den u must move ur feet to "press" abit accelerator pedal. (press den release) Den ur car wil be not auto-stop for some distance.

I hope u understand wat im saying... Lol

"Air cond will shutdown when car is stopped to conserve fuel"

Wax would only do sealing/sealant, polish would remove swirl marks. Wax would cover the swirl marks a little but then when the wax is gone, u will see the swirl marks again.

What I normally do for a proper car detailing, wash with claybar, polish & wax. smile.gif

yup. i send for sierra glow and thank god all the scratches gone and now my car back to show room condition. before that full of visible scratches.

Added on April 24, 2011, 1:04 amDid smtg stupid today - i tried to use a flat-head screw-driver to manually adjust my headlamps behind the headlamp housing (I personally still find the headlamp levels too low for night driving, even after set to max auto-levelling)...

managed to crank the headlamps light level to ~5cm higher, when the entire internal lamp reflector dish inside "dropped" about 10cm. Then now even if I turn the manual screws, the levels won't go up/down.

will get it fixed in the 1st service... probably a cable inside got loose coz i turned too much.

So, MORAL OF THE STORY: don't get too greedy and adjust the lamp level way too high smile.gif


Added on April 24, 2011, 1:23 amJust got my car back from PPS today...got the Shine N Shield Teflon coating done. Dropped the car off @ 9am, got it back @ 5pm. I watched them for awhile as they were polishing the car... it's quite a detailed process - wash thoroughly, apply polish, then wash thoroughly again, re-polish etc.

Luckily the shop lady boss got car for me to drive home... an old Ford 2.0 sedan... manual drive (i must say i miss driving manual car... still the best for jam-free roads  thumbup.gif

Here's some pix from the shop... these are taken immediately after I got there to collect the car...

Will try and get some clearer/nicer shots these next few days if weather outside is good smile.gif

BTW, I was told by the PPS detailers to use a "PH balanced car shampoo" to keep the shine (and to ensure the warranty is valid). walau eh - even car shampoo must use "PH balanced!"

I'm currently using Armor All wash n wax liquid shampoo (blue bottle, around RM20/bottle)... but might switch to the one the car detailers are using (Auto Magic, RM60/ 3L big bottle). Anyone using this brand?
