i used toyota oil filter last time..no problem, oil filter is kinda generic

guys i want to ask ah, i was at the tinting shop, i saw this honda city's windscreen being tinted from outside so 2day i went to the shop to get my windvisor black strip thingy and i asked the worker normally windscreen tinting is stick on where and he said inside, so, what is thing then...

so u mean, the right way is to stick inside?

CVT now proven so many problems.....

better dun touch, unless you got a deep deep pocket.

I talk rubbish?! Whatever! Now Proton already delay Cvt delivery for 1 month due to recall of the Cvt cooling system....

many reported jerking and stalling of cvt gb.....

Go ahead and bluff yourself. I don't give a rat's arse.....

did any one using IT20 spark plug?
any significant differences compare with stock spark plug？
i asked the price is rm148/set whereas for stock is rm38/set
huge difference
but for stock, 20k need to change already

K&N drop-in @ speedworksonline, RM280.

last time i bought 4 pieces for RM160. now i think rm148 can get already.
change air-filter la. it does help a lot. 1st our stock filter is made from paper. then the air flow some how will not so good and stuck a bit. the more dirty your stock air filter the worst air-intake it will become.

by having k&n or other performance filter (works, simonta etc), will make your car breath better. better air-intake=save fuel.

there are 3 famous air filter that famous among lyn forum.

1.K&N air filter a bit exp (around 280-300) and you need to use their oil cleaning kit or the air filter will void warranty. DON EVER USE TAP WATER TO WASH K&N AIR FILTER!!! THE AIR FILTER MESH WILL TORN OFF.

2. Project S Stainless Steel air filter. (around 105-120) depend on car model. this air filter mesh (the middle one) is made from stainless steel which form a net. Very good air flow and engine can breath nicely assume there were no filter install in your car. Very responsive and you can even use soap water or just water to wash your air-filter. And it will last forever until you sell your car off.
But there is no good behind it. since it does not have mesh or paper in between the filter it cant stop the tiny dust and water drop from going into our throttle body. long term it might give problem to our car throttle body.

3. Works Engineering air filter (RM120-160) depend on car model. this the most recommend air-filter among persona club member in lyn. This air filter design is same wit k&n air filter. But it just no need special cleaning kit to wash it and can be wash by tap water (NOT SOAP WATER). This air-filter also will last forever.

so my recommend is use works engineering air-filter. if you want to race with ppl temporary change to Stainless steel air filter lo.    After race change back. LOL

After changing air filter, straight away you can feel your car got pickup and save fuel.

it is advice to change oil every 5K cos the lub inside your car are full of contaminated, metal waste. so if you drag your service for 10k then you are burden your engine.

the sale man told you that the lub can last long cos they wan to convince you to buy their product. At the end you are the one who suffer. max lub can last is 7k.

if you are a sensitive driver. you can feel your car engine start to have vibration and a bit sluggish after 7k.

full syn although technically could last 10k km, but the oil filter doesn't.

In the end, it will still be damaging towards the engine. Even if using full syn, recommended is to change every 7k/8k. No matter how good is the engine oil, it will still deteriorate when accumulate mileage.

any1 here switched from ron97 to 95 b4? wats ur experience after tat? expected one is engine a bit rough...what else?

my flx 1st pump ron95 by salesman then from 2nd to 4th pump is ron97 liao, but thinking of switching back to 95 lor coz cannot tahan using mahal

yeah i knw kinda crazy for me to pump 97 at first without considering long term

Even my Cayman can run on Ron 95.

I believe Ron 97/95 is up to users' preference. If u wanna be economical, u'll definitely have to go Ron 95. Not much could be said about difference in engine performance; I won't believe it unless it is dyno proven that Ron 97 makes more power than 95.

P.s: talking about campro engines here and the application/difference between 95/97 on performance.

Have u tried different brands of petrol, then? Go pump Shell 97, then pump Caltex 97. U will definitely see the difference there. The problem is not with the Ron of the petrol itself, but rather the additives that they use in different petrol brands. It is recommended that CamPro engine uses Ron 97, but at the same time it is tuned to run with 95.

We members at PPLYN didnt waste our time & money trying different brands & Ron of petrol for no reason. AFAIK, campro engines run perfectly well on Caltex Ron 97. Arguably the best petrol u can use for ur CamPro. Very smooth, too.

If u think that higher CC cars won't feel the difference, then u're wrong. Cars with higher displacement are affected even more, and the difference is much more significant where knockings & power loss is greater felt. As I said, dyno proving is the only way to make me believe that Ron 97 is better than 95.

I'm not denying that Ron 97 gives smoother & better power delivery than 95, I'm just saying that if there is a performance difference felt in our CamPro engine, then it must be placebo effect. If u feel ur engine is smoother & less noisy while idling & accelerating, then yes, it is because of the additives in the higher priced Ron 97.

I can go further into how compression ratios and such affect the output of an engine using petrol of different octane ratings, but I think it should suffice that I stop here.

Different car owners feel differently. Cos different people drive differently & experience different driving conditions everyday. I personally feel that Caltex is the best for power & highway cruising, but esso mobil offers better FC while driving in traffic/city speeds.

And as for mixing stuffs into the petrol reservoir, I cant agree more. I've personally seen a few petrol station workers mixing what appears to be translucent liquid (water? Kerosene?) into the reservoir. I've avoided these stations ever since.

if I'm not mistaken, Saga 1.3 is using 16 bit Siemens ECU. Correct me if I'm wrong, but the Continental ECU is offered only starting from Persona Elegance and Exora. Maybe I was wrong, maybe Saga 1.3 indeed is using Continental ECU..

oh..
so dvvt is for fuel saving issit?

Saw a flx with all its logo cover. Bodykit also covered. Bloody fast at sunway. Red colour

now proton in dilemma  . wheater to launch EV first or turbo, cause govt. giving insentive for EV cars..... 

bro, abt the works drop-in air filter, is it DIY'able? Im not too good in automotive n dun wish to ruin my car if things go wrong...
i knw one guy frm pplyn tered sells that (or automotive garage), but im in pg n he is in kl, how do i fix it then... lol....

also, this filter is water washable? or need to use that special liquid@oil?
any one knows any mechanic in penang/mainland area familiar with these filter stuff so i can keep to him?

also, last ques    does it void warranty for engine if change filter n spark plugs? my car is barely 6 months old

wow..thanks alot bro... hmm since spark plug voids warranty, shud i wait for 3 yrs then oni consider this 2? hehe

btw thanks for the explanation... will try try myself if cant then see during next service la... interesting!

but whats the point if voids warranty?? just for spark plugs i ruin my engine warrantly right? 

  but yet they never mass production though, now EV only for govt. dpt. at putrajaya test use only.
EV is anywhere aldy, but did you see any from proton 
and Proton gonna build the EV charge station also ......

Frankly & IMHO, if one only hv fears over warranty claims T&C, then one shld NOT touch/change anything of stock car from Day 1 till 3 years later!!

As posted b4, my neighbour cld NOT even claim to replace the gear lever spring of his 100% stock BLM which is STILL under warranty!!

So... ?

As alwaz...decision is YOURS...

Mr alien said if your scared void warranty ma.

bro you don understand la. did you know what is wear and tear items? mean pakai, rosak and buang. the parts that cant last forever inside your engine are WEAR AND TEAR ITEM.

item that are NOT wear and tear eg. your IAFM module it will be there wit you engine forever. you cant change it. (except you wan to mod to CPS)

the SC just scare you all ppl that once you change your car item then all void warranty. Ask you better to use ori parts from proton. Like this they can chop you ma.

if you dare, ask them to list out what item are cover under engine and gear box warranty.

up to you bro. if you are so scare then use back ori item. 

what dvvt does? someone told me engine...
i noob ma
