Ah pek like me where still got play computer game, every day working alos with computer, back home rest, spamming thread computer, hangout night time also computer meh.......

For FOC service 1K, 5K, 10K and 20K for H-Line e-voucher, CoSE used Semi-Syn Syn 800 10W40. Problem is the missing 15K service coz if semi-syn was used, 15K have to service and pay abt RM160++.

CoSE allows upgrade of semi to fully Syn 1000 15W50 by paying price difference at 10K and 20K. Problem for me is its still a 50 weighted oil. I wanted W40 (Syn 3000) but CoSE only have Syn 1000.

Not worth to bring own oil coz FOC engine oil will be wasted, so have to choose to either use semi or upgrade fully at CoSE.

So it is better to upgrade at 10K to heavier fully 1000 15W50 (next serv 20K) or remains at lighter semi 800 10W40 (till next serv at 15K)? Which is better for the engine.

i ask about the locktech, one shop want to chop me with RM490.

then said got another brand, buatan melexia Locktact copy locktech one - RM350.

Bro Cavino, have u install it? and how much?

Why don't u bring ur own engine oil, & request them to give u back the free Petronas Synthium oil so that u can use for ur minor service after 20k? It's free & it's in the package anyway, they cannot say no & don't wanna give it to u..

FOC oil can be sell off to other people.
Both option also OK. If second option, just change the engine oil at outside with semi syn (15K). Up to you lo.

Siao kah...RM490...

I installed original Locktech, double lock with ignition disable feature (socket plug, no splicing) at RM350 at Klang Bayu Perdana.

Where u install this? Can PM me the location?
BTW, one of the forum member Shorty also sell this kind of lock.

Yes, they can do that, I asked before. But malas lah, want to go find someone to sell some more. I'm just wondering if heavier weighted W50 fully is better than lighter W40 semi or not.. coz my preference is still weight 40.

Got another question on oil. On my City I switched from idetmitsu mineral 10W30 directly to idemitsu fully 5W30 at 80K mileage. Then read some where saying if used mineral for long time, its not good to change to fully as can damage engine. So far my engine seems to run better, more power, less vibration, more silent than previously. However I'm worried abt any long term wear and tear damage thru this switch....is it just a myth, nay saying or its actually for real?

If u can do that then u might as well keep the Petronas Synthium for ur next service. One way or another u still need to pay for ur future service, so why don't u get the free one from them & keep it while using fully syn that u bought from outside for ur 10k service? Then the petronas synthium u can use for ur service at 25k...

U were actually running mineral oil on ur City??

No, it doesn't cause any substantial problem.. But u must check whether there are any sludge buildups from ur previous use of mineral oil as mineral oil is thicker (that's why u feel ur engine produce less power, more vibration & noisier). So yes, it's just a myth.

nice,,,,,,,,,,,,

Thanks for the advise and confirmation.

If I used fully, I'm not going to switch back to semi thus the dilemma in keeping the semi for 25K..

Yes, I'm using stock on engine all along, no mod at all except for structural mod (strut, GC, etc). I've been using Honda Mineral SL 10W30 until abt 60K (play safe), then switch to Idemitsu SM 10W30 until 80K (play even safer cause Honda Mineral also idemitsu but old formula).

Finally used Idetmitsu Fully 5W30 at 80K. Idetmitsu oil pretty good quality and clean even for mineral but quite expensive. Save money mah and all along my engine perform silently and quite powerful as attested by one experience City club member. Only recently it tends to vibrate a little bit more....so switch to fully.

Will asked the mechanic to check if the fully oil dirty or not on next service (probably 6K-7K mileage), yes play safe again as even the mechanic (ex-Honda) mentioned fully by right should also change at 5K but can drag abit for cost saving...

can pm me the location, ur confirm is Locktect not Locktact-copy cat.
coz the shop i visit, he show me 2, it look the same but the quality diff!!

I know the boss and been using his service for near to 6 years liao when he first open shop there. Quite honest.

So I don't think he will cheat me. Anyway I asked him before, he says its definitely real and mentioned the local ones are cheaper but he usually installed locktech. The original locktech metal finishing is much smoother especially around the edge and throughout entire body. So far mine looks original with smooth finishing.

So far my Civic and Persona double lock is very smooth to pull and release. In case, my keys also has Thai word imprinted on it (not sticker, its punch in wan). So assume its of Thai make.

Yo guys,
Any of you cleaned yr new works engineering air filters? Just cleaned mine yesterday after d 5000km service. Notice that there were all kinds of funny stuck in it...found 2 bugs and a few petals of flowers. Real nice eh?

That's normal lah. Especially if u go on highway a lot at night. All kinds of bugs can get sucked into ur air intake & get trapped at the air filter. Imagine if u use K&N instead.. Lower filtration higher flow.. All the bugs get sucked into ur engine to provide extra combustion power

best and most difficult lock for the theives to dismantle is brake lock.. the brake lock is secured against the chassis of the car.. and when its pulled up in lock position its nearly impossible to take it off in ashort time and without cutting anything.. furthermore the brake pedal is one of the hardest metal in the car, compared with the hollow steering which can be cut through easily.. so the best is to install a brake lock and a gear lock lah.. haha..

Forever young mah.. haha..

the 40/50 is not the weight of the oil.. its the index for the change of oil viscosity.. the higher the number, the more resistant is the oil to change its viscosity at high temperature.. So the higher the number, the more lesser the drop of viscosity at higher temp.. the lower the number the thinner the oil will become at higher temp.. too high index then the car will feel heavier at op. temp cos the oil is thicker.. lower index then the engine will feel lighter cos the oil becomes thinner at higher temp..

so expensive.. I got mine for only RM250 and its a quite good quality one except for its harder springs.. The locktact marehsia made one i get it for RM280 only..

higher index 50 gives u more protection, at the expense of slightly higher fc and slight loss of power.. 40 index gives u slightly lower protection for the wear and tear than 50 but better fc and power..

i found leaves and a lot of dead bugs in mine.. XD

since u have supporting this guy for 2 cars, i think it should be !!

Zeng, mind to share ur break lock? is it double lock? and wat brand?
