Probably you should change your engine oil cap, it is not supposed to leak out

I bought the cap for RM5 only.. or you can try to bend the metal holding inside so it became more tighten, temporary solution.

So FC still remains like last time? Bummer.

Yeah, did ur orange engine light light up when the car shudders? Its TB, common problem in our wiras. Changed once jor, last time is the car will shudder, stutter and finally died off in the middle of the road I am just hoping the VS and GC can regulate my car system. Yeap, 250 for both. Probably next week will fix with my friend together. Nvm lah as long the VS and GC gives the car the extra oomph, wira quite powerful on the highway. Mine still can hit 140 easily although the steering is shaking like mad, though they say its the balancing problem.
