s800-semi synthethic 10w40
s1000-??
s3000-full syhthetic 10w40?

Check Petronas website lar.

Anyway, i think xW40 should be ok...anything more than 40 is a bit too thick and sucks even more fuel. Unless you rev kaw-kaw everyday and redline, i don't think you'll need xw/50.

Say, is it ok if we use xw30 for our engines? Would it be too thin for 2.0cc engine? (But maybe saves more fuel?).
*
So if I go service, they said like can go for 5000km or 10000km is what meaning? what oil is that?
so full syhthetic better. What is the price for s3000?
I just saw petronas now promotion at paultan.

Right now, Proton gives 10w40 for the Synthium 800 for Inspira. But there is a 15w/50 Synthium 800 also. Previously, they were using this i think. but x/50 is too thick for a brand new car.
*
erm.. so my old car now used 20w50, so old engine should use x/50 thicker?
before the 0w / 10w/ 20w is cold start? what is the different??
If i bring to other service instead of proton SC, also ok right??

already on 50, use back 50 lor. About the thickest oil for normal car...unless you use those racing/high performance car oil xw/60....but better not lar....
0w/10w/20w is a rating to indicate that the oil performs the same level of oil thickness during cold or hot. 0w is for the coldest, 10w less cold, 20w lagi less cold...somthing like that....for example 10W/40 will means the oil performs with a level of viscocity based on SAE40 ratings whether in hot or cold(10W).....W means winter, you can google for more info.

Basically, it's all in the -ve Celcius range. Malaysia don't have winter, so it don't matter to us. Our coldest probably in Genting...what...17C ?? Doesn't matter....won't reach negative anyway...unless 2012 coming, which you won't be worry about your car... tongue.gif

Please don't buy oil at outside workshop....there has been many cases of fake oil going on. Only buy from Petrol Stations or official SC. You don't want to kill your car by being cheapskate.

As for Tesco oil, i believe somebody discuss before, the ratings might be a bit different than similar local brands.
*
Now i clearly understand what is the different. haha. smile.gif
thank you so much for your explanation. So the front doesnt matter.
Then i continue use xw/50 for current car. so use xw/40 for inspira.

QUOTE(Matrix @ Aug 10 2011, 03:05 PM)
If your wira already on 50 dun use 40 oil since this is such an old car.

9km/l??? Good FC what. My Inspira only can do 8km/l in City drive!!!!
*
haha.. my car now similar or cheaper than inspira? not sure how much, but full tank around rm70 can go 400km something for highway.

Ken,

sports mode means u drive ur cvt by ur own control except 1.8cvt no paddle shifters only the gear stick
*
oh, so sport mode is actually push it to change gear ourself?? then i think use auto mode better, save petrol. haha..
but when i use sport mode i feel really fun, cause can control when to change gear myself. rclxm9.gif

Penang got more stop and go, while KL is more like an endurance one.....

Sport mode in our CVT is manual gear mode  (for your 2.0 its your flappy paddle gearbox). For us 1.8e its the initial D gear stick   . We don't have traction control anyway.

Mmmm...relatively speaking its a pretty weak air con for proton's standards. I heard that our compressor is bosch and not denso/sanden....


yes, penang got more stop and go, is too many~ doh.gif
next time drive to penang meet u. laugh.gif
my inspira is 1.8e too. not 2.0. not paddle shift. but i think i wont use much the initial D gear stick, haha... worry not good for gear box.

Do you feel the same right? the aircond is not that good. unsure.gif

streakfreak : mine is 1.8e, no paddle shift. hehe.. but i always wrong + n - using paddle shift~ laugh.gif
but it is really nice, just i a bit worry the cvt gearbox will spoil only.

DM3, haha.. when i go petrol station that time i feel not happy already. laugh.gif fun when driving.

I do think buy manual, but after i worry if i change job to PJ, those traffic jam life, i will die~ sad.gif

Aiks, I thought u were getting the 2.0? or I messed it up lol.
Yeah i also leave it at D, after all its CVT so it will adapt automatically....plus got invecs...
Our air cond must put higher...if hot day i will put it until middle point for a few mins then shift back to first notch
*
No, I am same with u 1.8e. hehe.. that time only both of us choose 1.8e what. biggrin.gif
I put to high after feel not so hot only i switch it back to mid, usually i put on mid. very hot~ haha

hamiksu hamiksu fight fight?

I change my bumper to lancer gt too, then removed the diamond logo and stick the proton badge to it. finally i have to took proton badge out and replace back with a mitsu badge that comes with it.

no choice. because the bumper comes with a mould of the mitsu diamond. forcefully stick a proton badge makes it look a little out of place not to mention it doesnt stick well at all.

I felt its ok la as long as you do it properly, by means original or at least oem part and not anyhow stick a mitsu badge to an inspira bumper. you know, mod properly else don't do it at all. quality mods smile.gif

with proton logo.

oh.. 2008 and 2009 LGT bumper is different. no wonder i saw some LGT have chrome lining but some not.
I prefer the 2008 one, feel it look like shark~ haha.. usually where u all find the LGT bumper?
the price will be cheaper compare to those oem ppu material?

finally i free to online. just now i go shopping then have a white color Inspira 2.0 park beside me. then i look at my 1.8~ without skirt, then recall me that mine without a lot thing. cry.gif cry.gif cry.gif

haha.. the solid white look nice also. more sporty compare to mine silver, like family car. laugh.gif

QUOTE
changed it mainly for the chrome lining and fighter/shark look. lol. changed quite a few thing at 3.2k total damage including paint but the owner insist she want it so pocket burn no choice


biggrin.gif shark look really nice. i love shark look also. my silver inspira can be shark later. brows.gif brows.gif
3.2k total damage consider quite a lot, really pocket burn. but can get a shark back it is worth. laugh.gif
