Rear left camber reading : -2.6 (too negative) Rear right camber reading : 0.0 Resulting rear left tire eat 1 side so quick. Since the camber can't be adjusted, then need to claim warranty.

if u want to enjoy 5 years warranty, u've no choice, u need to follow what SC recommend... i stop send my car to SC after 3 free service... last service with them is 10k km (i'm using mineral that time so interval is 1k, 5k & 10k, now switching to semi aldy) when i sent my car for torsion beam replacement, SC said this part isn't related to engine so SC still claim it free for me... but if something happen related to engine, for sure they'll charge me coz not servicing with them...

no la... SC gave me 2 options, mineral or fully... so i choice mineral due to i'm not using my car everyday so a bit waste if use fully... i dunno la if there's a people replace their fully every 5k km coz a bit hard for me to achieve 10k km in a short period...
eh how do u know our car aldy fill up with fully when come out from the factory ? i also dunno that... coz from what i've read new engine (zero mileage) shouldn't use fully... should use mineral so all the 'abuk2 besi' easy to throw out...

fully also can use... except no benefit to me... u might read below... » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « There are a lot of entities that recommend using synthetic oil, even to people who don't need it. For example, synthetic is recommended for anyone that drives in stop-and-go traffic. But since all of us drive in stop-and-go at some point, that's a bad recommendation. You should only use synthetic if you're driving in stop and go traffic long enough that your engine's cooling fan turns on, and only if you're doing so daily. Also, if you only drive short trips, people may recommend synthetic oil as a way to protect your engine. However, short trips, regardless of your choice of oil, can damage your motor. No matter whether you use synthetic or regular oil, your engine was designed run for at least 20 minutes. Running synthetic in these situations might be better, but tests have shown that the benefit is minor.
so if i use my car daily, of course i'll use fully... semi also can but change every 5k km laaa... dun blame my superbike but blame the KL trafik...

QUOTE(izputra @ Feb 18 2012, 12:14 AM) I used fully syn oil all the way to 40k km service...i just dont want to go to SC frequently..so opt for fully syn oil that can last for 10k km  yezaaa... but air filter better clean it on every 5k km... bukak filter, bwk pi kedai motor, pinjam sembur angin yg kuat giler tu... country kita ni byk habukkk...
