Eric, congratz on fixing your problems!!  rclxm9.gif  rclxm9.gif

All engine oils are can be used on our cars as long as they meet the correct viscosity ratings. The only issue is that some BLM members have complained of loud tappet noise after using fully synthetic oil. Personally, I just started using fully synthetic on my 10000km service. I don't know what a tappet noise is, but I'll be looking out for any abnormal noises.
*
Here's an example of the said tappet noise. Something like diesel engine. lol



Now that mine's fixed, it sound like new. brows.gif

Hmm, the first batch was well known with rust around the drive shaft, but reaching the stage where it detaches? First time I've heard of this.

Is the rust caused by the air cond water hose being too short? blink.gif I read about that somewhere some time ago.

Gear spring fixed under warranty? Great, I'm gonna get mine fixed too. Hopefully they can raise the accelerator pedal too brows.gif

year half only a..... cry.gif cry.gif cry.gif but what to do...the mounting nearly died on me. It hardened and drooped my engine so had to change. According to my mechanic, Proton's engine mount uses not-so-good quality rubber thats why and can last about 3-5yrs only. No offense ya for those that beg to differ tongue.gif tongue.gif
