QUOTE(XCInspire @ Mar 1 2012, 09:19 AM) The cover serves a few purpose : 1) Looks neat  2) Concentrates cold air from front into the radiator (there is also a fan behind sucking in air) 3) Prevent hot air from engine to flow to the front of radiator when car is stationary (hot air goes up, to the hood cover, eventually finds its way into front radiator which its fan will then suck in the air). So if there is a cover, hot air will not reach the front part). 4) Your engine compartment will not be so dirty, your fan/alternator belts will not get dirty too. A dirty engine is a stressed one. Owner also will stress looking at dirty engine as compared to clean one. Go tt show ppl also paiseh if dirty.  I don't show ppl one.. .. i show only when i'm white mouse.... klang here is like the games Dirt 3, no dirt no fun... i'm actually driving EVO, everyday Rally the ART on my way to work and back home...

Hopefully can claim warranty let me ask you a magic question. ever wash your car in RM3 car wash? when your discbrake is very hot, and they splash water on it? try avoid doing that. my myvi changed 6 set of disc in 4 years, after i stop washing in rm3 or right after long drive, the disc brake lasted like 2 years and beyond, compared to 6 months.

Nope. Only 2k mileage and only washed my car twice. Both also in the early mornings before going out. Doesn't make much difference as the car still has to drive during heavy rain right?

Driving hard then hit heavy rain also ok (cause water will gradually go in and cool the brakes), driving hard and getting some roadside fella shooting a jet of water on the brakes is no no Added on March 1, 2012, 9:52 amQUOTE(aaronchaiz @ Mar 1 2012, 09:50 AM) How to know if the disc is functioning or not ar? coz my previous car 2 years old only then i sold it off.. didnt think it has any problem though..
