will do my 20k service this 30th, just ask my SC and their allowed to bring own lube. Intrested to try Castrol Magnatec semi synthetic. any comment guys? or should i stick with Caltex Havoline semi synthetic?
Not sure yet.. Have to wait till this sat or sun when the stock arrives then only the distributor will give the price.. Interested in Denso Iridium 0.4mm Spark Plug? RM160 only. 20k service u shd use fully sync lah.. Then can last 10k mah.. No point servicing at 25k again, waste on labour charges and oil fee.. Use Castrol Edge 5W-40.
yeah right, but i'm prefer using semi synthetic than fully synthetic because i travel in short distance to work and to get every 5k will take almost 4month. if fully sure 7-8month, it's ok to leave oil too long in our engine if not archive next service?
Oh.. Then u have the reason to use semi lah.. But actually it's fine not to service ur car in 3-4 months interval as stated in manual if u're using fully synth. But just don't exceed until like 1 year never service lah..
yeap, that's why i prefer semi to service every 5k because estimate time to get interval next service. thank's for advice, but 4month oil in engine also i feel should change fresh oil, then fully 8month sure i feel really will try to use magnatec but at my SC confirm their will pour all 4l finish even i ask them not to.
Yeah u can leave fully sync that long cos its very stable.. U certainly cant do that with mineral oil.. semi sync is actually half mineral oil half synthetic oil. So its not good to leave it like that too..
sure 7-8 month for full synthetic feel very wrong and too long for me, thanks for advice.
Dadurtyz, don go to the jln tun fatimah there. The workers there not pro also. Go to the another one at Tmn Merdeka behind Pasar Borong MPHJ. There quite good. The jln tun fatimah not good. What problem i faced, they said they will fixed it. Then if cannot fixed, thy said is like that. But the one behind Pasar Borong one solved for me.
Btw where did you stay? Having a TT at melaka?
really?? i know that place, my house at taman merdeka, so near from me, i just done 1st 1k km service there but after that i go to jln.tun fatimah and SC their tell me that dont go any agent SC because if cause a problem's their will void and claim to main SC also. Really? any claim can be done at this SC? because workmanship at jln.tun veer worse, i report 3 time about my brake pad their even dont replace a new brake pad and even give a reason and try to avoid any claim's.
Was being cocok-ed by blm the other night... press till 160km/h n he can still follow.. 170km/h and he slowed down
BTW, if u guys see a long stretch of tyre marks at Jalan Istana fast lane heading to KL, it belongs to me
BLM top speed can reach 180km/h if downhill. never face BLM but face waja 2005 version, 160-180 cucuk waja bontot then speed 190 waja seem cannot go further. then pass him..
well if waja cucuk me i can negotiate, last time got viva cucuk me at speed 140km/h Look's like ah-beng viva with full bodykit, then tekan 160 also he can't chase me
why my engine got knocking sound? when press the pedal the sound appear, sound like ngerengrengreng in soft sound. this knocking sound cause by what? anyone?? hear from cockpit.

Knocking sound is tak tak tak tak like that.. Haiz.. 20mil still up for grabs.. Must buy every draw from now on.. XD
lol then what that;s sound? just bough castrol magnatec 10w-40 A3/B4. for my 20k service, zeng this corret lube for our persona? Bellow attach with picture's
Yeah this the correct one.. But its semi only lah.. so 25k u have to service again.. hehe.. Im resizing the video from my phone.. Then i post it here.. hehe..
yeah like last time i told you why i prefer semi than fully the price different from castrol edge only around RM70+. but because as per-condition i need to stick with semi
Could be IAFM. Better pop up ur hood to record the sound, make sure u record it in HD so that we can get a clearer idea of the noise. dono. God knows I'm broke now, so he's sharing some of his fortune with me so that I won't suffer so badly mah.. God is great, god knows it all... Zeng, I think I can go on Tuesday lah. Just tell me what day u prefer. But I still need u to lend me RM 50 Yes, it's the correct lube. But u do notice the packaging is somewhat different from other Magnatecs, right? It's because Tesco is selling imported European Castrol lube. Perfectly fine with using it, just that u might be supporting other countries' economy lah instead of ours. Also, the one they sell in Tesco might be manufactured quite some time ago, so u might wanna keep an eye on that.
yeah, i survey at jusco and carefour but different packaging, but tesco the best price! RM99, Jusco and carefour RM107. Well the date's mark on the bottle 02/11/2010 must be manufactured date right?
Ohh really IAFM problems? tomorrow will record in HD for prove.
For ur engine oil turn to the back and see the place almost at the bottom there, See when the oil was manufactured then update us here;.. My guesstimate according to the packaging that its within 10mths. Ok no probs with that.. hehe.. Tuesday is perfect lah.. Cos wednesday onwards i have classes.
02/11/2010 and now 02/05/2011 = 6month packaging and manufactured in the EU. Zeng my engine almost sound like urs video, might record as soon in HD for detail
Added on May 1, 2011, 11:59 pm Owh its 6mths only then its worth it lah.. hehe.. Mine when i bought it also around 5mths old.. Did u manage to check out Castrol Edge price?
Yerp, Castrol Edge same packaging like this one around RM170+

tomorrow will done my 20k service with castrol at 9AM earlier item may reject by me, Coolant and brake fluid. wonder why proton coolant so expensive, RM24 per-bottle at outside just RM4.99
Done my 20k major service, bough my own lube and total damage include my lube RM428.25. Item change.
1. Air filter 2. ATF 4litter 3. Coolant 1 bottle (cannot reject since their want flush radiator) 4. Spark Plug 5. Brake major service, (Their scrub drum break with sand paper and blow-it front and rear) RM40<<
item reject Brake Fluid since i just replace my brake pump and top-up new brake fluid last time.
after that their ask me that my ECU still old version and ask me to update latest one 3.9version from main branch service. Their tell me do it ASAP since it might effect our Automatic transmission
so guys if ur car AUTO better re-flash new ECU 3.9.
If not mistaken around RM 450-500.. Item reject.. engine oil..
really? After use Castrol my engine feel roughly, wonder why?? and it's jerking at start, but after move and idling no-more. Feel like Syntium more smooth lar plak
update* I Ask them that my car got rattling sound and their tight my underweight carrier and their put grease on nut's, really solve rattling sound 40% and feel the car more solid and stiff
