Any owners here know where can I get those SAGA BLM stock rim or cap cover ? .. I lost one during the accident. Try searching around those service centre but they don't keep stock and need to pre-order.

Dear bros,
My ride is currently hiding the quota of 67K + mileage .. haven't change anything major all this while except for the following :- 1. Engine Oil - Semi Syn 2. Oil Filter - those OEM ones bundled with the Engine Oil purchase 3. Air Intake Filter 4. Brake Pads 5. Skimming of Disc Rotor 6. ATF That's all about it. Anything I should be aware of for this upcoming servicing ?  |

Some said I will need to go for the timing belt change since its been quite some time already.I'm always driving .. daily and outstation trip as well. QUOTE(kenjilew @ May 29 2012, 06:47 PM) well... check if spark plug condition still good or not... replace if needed... dun let them say about the condition of the spark plug... if not nanti kena potong lagi... lols Thanks for the feedback bro. I wonder is it possible to check the spark plugs on my own ? Any recommended brand ? Bosch is good enough ? |

QUOTE(kenjilew @ May 29 2012, 07:06 PM) posible to check on your own with the right tools... there are actually spark plugs that are designed for campro engine only... thats what i know... correct me if i`m wrong about the special designed spark plugs for campro engine... Got no idea how to open the casing of the engine also. Guess I will ask the mechanic to check it out for me before deciding whether to change or not .. Denso / Bosch sounds reasonable to me. |

QUOTE(max_cjs0101 @ Jun 2 2012, 02:12 PM) Is there any mod that i can do or places i can send my stock CD player which only reads CDs for it to read MP3s as well? i'm still keeping the player with me at home after changing it to SONY player.I think you can consider converting the audio file format to .cda and burn it to a CD ?  |

QUOTE(djhenry91 @ Jun 2 2012, 10:53 PM) now need ask sifu how to maintain white lo..i am kinda pemalas actually.. You can go for car waxing and polishing .. from time to time ..  btw..when i do test drive..i baru realise tht when i tekan the brake more harder thn my dad car...gud news for me Till today around 3 years I haven't wax and polish it before. But consistently washing the car to avoid any stain will be good enough .. |

Went to service my car yesterday morning and service some of the major parts below :-
1. Engine Oil - Caltex Semi Syn 10W-40 2. Oil Filter 3. NGK Spark Plugs 4. KYB Absorber Front and Back 5. Tyre Alignment and Balancing Overall total of RM888 .. Does it sound reasonable with such pricing ? ... |

QUOTE(davidke20 @ Jun 5 2012, 08:31 AM) So fast absorber kong?! Only 69k wor!!! You go off road rally often?! Or you "flying" over road bumps like there's no tomorrow? I didn't fly la .. its just that I'm staying on hill side area. everyday also driving through bumps .. and my working place also. everyday bumps bumps bumps in the parking lot ..  QUOTE(coolkwc @ Jun 5 2012, 08:33 AM) My car now also 68k adi, but absorber still intact... Good to hear that Bro. I didn't go for the Proton SC .. just settled it with one of the mechanics I knew at Sri Rampai ..  You did at Proton SC or workshop outside? |

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « Perhaps you can take a look at the snapshot of the absorber that I've captured earlier yesterday morning .. » Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... « I have change the spark plugs as well .. but I believe the old one still can be used right as I experienced car shaking when accelerating that time.

QUOTE(coolkwc @ Jun 5 2012, 10:53 AM) As long as after change got improvement then is well spent. Engine Mounting lose ? .. will it serious and affect the car performance ? Car shaking when accelerate could be due to loose engine mounting. My ori spark plug from 15k until 68k now still OK. How long ur spark plug used before? I have been using this stock spark plug for approx. 3 years already .. |

QUOTE(r3apers @ Jun 5 2012, 11:02 AM) FL not so jumpy around 100 but above 140 yes... Will it produce any sound when the engine is turn on .. whether its on the move / stagnant at parking position ? mouting lose will cause a lot of vibration due the the rubber mounting giving up... Coz I do experienced sound of metal hitting each other's surface when I am driving / stagnant .. |
