QUOTE(amd2105 @ Jun 19 2012, 09:28 AM) The last part, the rear dvd player really testing my patience as i've read everything in the manual (no dvd was tested yet). Plugged in the usb, the display shows the mp3 was on play mode but no sound, stucked at this point until today. Is there any cable or is there any other point that was missed during the process? Is the front radio unit possibly "connected" via bluetooth or whatever wire "less" with the dvd player unit? Help me please  You need to select frequency at dvd player eg: 89.9 Then tune your radio to frequency 89.9 Read the dvd manual again, it stated there  |

You people have same issue? yup. according to kristof, it is 5s.we need to anticipate the traffic movement in order to 'sync' with the delay QUOTE(neo1point3 @ Jun 19 2012, 11:42 AM) Have u ever use fm modulator before? Its the same way wud like to add,You need to select frequency at dvd player eg: 89.9 Then tune your radio to frequency 89.9 Read the dvd manual again, it stated there better check the hu 1st regarding the channel/frequency to use. make sure it is clear from interference. |

QUOTE(Optiplex330 @ Jun 19 2012, 12:00 PM) You should read Page 127 regarding oil chart. I bet 99% of Bold owner don't bother reading that IMO, is one of the most important page. read that page and i believe the cheapest petronas syntium 1000 (15w50) is enough for the car.... according to the charts lah |

i base it on ambient temperature... malaysia once reached 40 in 1998... and the trend is going up... so i chose 15w50... and no i dare not say the best... merely good enough ....
during 1k and 5k i used 10w30 |

That is an exception and I wouldn't worry about that.during 1k and 5k i used 10w30 But if you insist on worrying, I reckon you should go for 10W40 (have to be Semi or Synthetic, no Mineral). 15w50 is too thick and the range far too wide so increase risk of oil breaking down. |

QUOTE(Turbocrazy @ Jun 18 2012, 02:21 PM) How come send so sudden?? I tot u EB is running fine... I didn't realize the OWV really that time, when inspection on first service, the SC clarified that I have OWV and OCV problem. so they've ordered the item and took 1 month to wait until the parts arrived. But my EB is still superb without any other problem u guys mentioned here.Added on June 19, 2012, 1:16 pm QUOTE(brotan @ Jun 18 2012, 02:09 PM) hi bro nope do they provide monetary compensation (like daily allowance) or give you a spare car to drive?

if we focus on SAE 30 (10w30) as being the best fit for exora bold wouldn't that make the best that petronas has to offer at syntium 5000 0w30?
because the difference between 10w30 and 0w30 is cold start viscosity? just saying because i believe this is what is offered at most proton sc and some dont let ppl use their own oil. |

The car manual said you CAN NOT use 0W30. Not enough protection. Have to stick with oil starting with at least 10W**because the difference between 10w30 and 0w30 is cold start viscosity? just saying because i believe this is what is offered at most proton sc and some dont let ppl use their own oil. |
