I agree...the default tint is very good already. My car never really ever felt extremely hot even in hot sun and can cool down very fast once the aircond is on. Save the money!

Just done washing my Inspira and waxing the car just now....took me 2 hours....first wash with Kit car wash shampoo, then dry, then use Meguir to rub off grime and finally turtle wax it....

IT'S FREAKIN HARD WORK.

Now my pants is all wet from sweat like people wet in their pants....got to go take shower now...

But satisfiying knowing i did a better job than Bangla who'll probably scratch my car and charge me RM100++ for it.

Hmm..everybody so rajin today washing and waxing cars...LOL.

Sad day for me....my wife dunno how she drive...langgar the side skirting...now skirting came out a bit, 2 holding points has been disconnected.....i dunno how to fix back...maybe needs to remove skirting and fix back....where can do this? Accesories shop??

It's not patah. The white plastic holder screwed to the car is still there, but the rubber which suppose to latch to the white plastic came out. I can't push it back because it needs to be push foward then only can masuk balik...but can't push coz all the other points are still intact.

Go back to Proton also damn mah fan...haiz...

The rubber hook on the skirting is black color and the hook/latch is white plastic. So u just knock at the skirting and it hooks back??

New car no need to polish...spoil your paint only. Maybe after 3 years you can start polishing. Regular waxing for first 3 years is good enough. Now i plan to wax every 2 months...and apply Turtle Express shine every week....very easy to apply liquid.

Err???What manual?? You mean sports mode??? You can try and then update us...frankly, the sports mode is to waste fuel, not save fuel...so you can do more vrroom vroom.....anyway, i found it very difficult to drive with sports mode. Cause the car jerking when downshift too soon. The car will also downshift automatically even in sports mode when your speeds drop..it just won't upshift automatically when your RPM increases.... It's not like driving a real manual....still haven't get the hang of it.

Is it?? But i don't see swirls wor...maybe white color hard to see?? Anyway i'll double check...thanks for the tip!

Err...break in needs to be light footed meh??? I break in by doing 160km/h going down to Melaka on highway wor....
There's always two school of thoughts on these method.....can give me more insights??

btw, is TT at Paparich on this Friday? I might wanna join u guys...Steven, Vincent, Michael and the rest...hehe.

Oh yeah, just fixed my skirting. Now back to good mood. Went to one shop, the guy say must go to 'mar kut'(how do u spell this thing) to dismantle and install back...so i go to the place around Lim Kok Wing as recommended...on the way... the more i think, the more it's not logical for me...it's simple stuff only wor! So in the end, i pass by a Proton SC near there and i remember my friend said this SC is good. Just got down the car and asked one uncle. Very easily he fix for me...just have to pull out the plastic thing with a screwdriver/cutter, slot back to the skirting rubber and push back the plastic inside...kaw tim....just pay him RM 5 only...no need to open service report...or will be slaughter by Proton standard labour charges....wakakaka.

Added on June 13, 2011, 2:29 pmWho told u this?? I get 8-9km/l in city drive...about 0.21cents....on highway...only 0.13 to 0.14 cents (13-14km/l)...some guys did better than me and hits 15km-16km/l.

All using RON 95. U tok about RON 95 right?? If RON 97 (RM 2.9), it'll be 20cents/km on highway. If you can afford to fill RON 97, no need to tok FC lor....

You are powderful.

btw, driving 90km/h on the highway in this car is very no fun.... ...i read an article somewhere...some challenge to get best FC on Honda Insight....switch off aircond...drive 50km/h and escort by police...(or sure kena langgar from behind)....if want to save FC until like that, better ride a motorbike and go 80km/h.....so sufffering buy car for what?? haha.

Yah...next time i go there too. Can use service voucher rite? Thanks for the info..."MarGad"...i google 'Marquee, Marquet etc etc' all comes out nothing....haha. MUD GUARD....aiyo...now i know.

Erm...i try to describe...

You turn in from the main road, pass a school on right...then you see the Lim Kok Wing building on right...after this building, there's a road turn right, don't turn in, go foward a bit and turn right, this is the first row of shophouses...lots of autoshop here...just drive straight till the corner and you'll see the Proton SC on your left.

Opps..i am sorry...i should mentioned it's the OLD LIM KOK WING INSTITUTE...not the new Lim Kok Wing, which is in CyberJaya...

It is in PJ, as mentioned by Poadster.

Wah..so many members service there?? Must be good huh? (Or is it Ms Ruby give very good service...hehehe)

And kind of surname is that..."ALL"???

But i thought some people says got 4k to 6k discount now?? Dunno true or not lar...maybe higher interest rates or some orther T&C?? But now Inspira 2.0 also got 3 yrs FOC Service...but their service no include expensive stuff like CVT gear oil.......

Book recommend 80K change CVT oil...but i read most Lancer Owner change at 40k....i think i'll change at 40k km or 2 yrs...whichever come first....better spend a little to take care of the CVT gear box....the gearbox is expensive man.....anyone knows the exact price of the CVT gearbox?

I think someone mentioned before...RM3xx gua....maybe i am wrong though.

I could be wrong....it could be RM 6xx...

===Updated===

This guy is selling. Maybe can PM him and check.

Yes..Size does matters....bigger car, bigger cc, more powah, more comfort, more stable, superior handling.

You got a problem with that bud?
