envy those ppl who can buy michelin ps3. the reviews are very good indeed.

my next serv wil be 40k km also.

item to change in my mind:
a) engine oil 4L semi-syn - RM90
b) oil filter Ori - RM15
c) spark plug (Bosch) - RM50
d) air filter Ori - RM20
e) clean TB - RM20
f) labour - RM30

TOTAL - RM225

p/s: I changed my gear oil at 20k km, so next change will b at 60k -70k km. Coolant i will only change at 60k km as per serv manual. Brake fluid changed at 20k km and is still very clean so will wait till 60k km. Fuel filter wil also b changed at 60k km as per manual. =)

*above price are estimated. =)

Added on April 19, 2012, 8:30 pmHmm, tried to access the spareparts-list pricing ; link is dead?

Anyone know how much it costs to change exhaust pipe (rear section, silencer)? Mine's corroded.

try and ask ACT subang. one forumer said they have the r3 exhaust

just go any exhaust shop and pick one. change just muffler should set you back around 200-300 for regular ones. Higher spec, higher price.. If already 5 yrs + had coil problem before, consider changing / dumping the cat-con and swapping in a mid section bullet. You'll definitely feel a difference next time driving..

Wonder if now still jerking? i mean after few months u service...

Got RM30 discount voucher, so it was like RM120 to get the Castrol Fully Sync.

How much is for disc skimming?

mind you I haven't change my brake pad and rear brake shoe..mileage now is 150k.

The only major part changed once timing belt change once,tyres, absorbers once.

haha.. cost bout rm100 + labor rm30 to remove n refix the disk..

mine already reach 166k bro..

bout rear bearing. some said coz mine original spindle. got problem. maybe need to change spindle later. dont have time to send in my car during spindle changing period.

depend on driver maybe n luck.

Thanks for the recommend Not looking for the r3 edition, just standard will be fine. Will google ACT subang.

Added on April 26, 2012, 2:06 pmThanks I probly will have to change the cat-con due to the corrosion problem, but what is a mid-section bullet?
I got a quote from Proton, could be between rm400 (half) - rm700 (full set) not inc labour... is it just me, or is that expensive?
