I baru saw the stupidest, kebodohan car owner in the world. Kia Optima K5. Number plate WWR, so fairly new car. What's wrong with it?

1. Fuel door missing.
2. Scratches all over the car.
3. Brown colored mud marks all over the car.
4. DRL front left terbakar.
5. Front number plate missing replaced with a brown cardboard with marker pen scribblings on it.

Seriously, why buy a Optima if you're gonna use it for construction site visiting purposes? What a waste of a proper car. I see Liao damn sakit hati.

Word of advise.. New cars, new engine, needs to break in.. Ur FC will improve as ur driving skills improves to suit the car.. Ur engine will only really be optimum around 20k+ km.. Dont believe see my fuelly.. 40k and FC still going lower.

Oh, thats a little comforting to hear. I really hope so. I just took it out of SC yesterday noon after i complained abt door handle & FC. I think theres just a tiny difference. Im gonna do Fuelly stats right after i empty this tank.

QUOTE(abong8 @ Jun 14 2012, 01:43 AM)
Simple, buy my 4-2-1 extractor, town driving FC will drop drastically..
In Pekan Nenas, Pontian there is a factory manufacturing condom.. If u saw the mould there, u can see how big a schlong that condom can cover.. Cucumber is considered small compared with its mould..

erm a simple google shows thats the shiny fat chrome tubes coming out from the engine block, looks expensive haha.

Ahh ic.. For the screeching sound, high chances that the tensioner has lost its ability to provide enough tension or the belt u are using maybe of not good quality and has sag so much till the tensioner could not take up the slack of it.

As for the oil leak, its pretty obvious its the oil seals that have given way, when was the last time u changed the oil seals and timing belt and tensioner and what brand was it if u know?

Normally a proper timing belt replacement package will have
Timing belt
Drive belt
timing belt tensioner
drive belt tensioner
crank oil seal
cam oil seals
tensioner bearing
*
so, will the non ori tensioner belt damage my tensioner bearing?...if not i think i will change the tensioner belt to ori proton one?..do you know how much its cost?... hmm.gif

bought bosch 100k km timing belt package from bro airline...got timing belt, tensioner bearing, 3 oil seals only if i'm not mistaken...compare the oil seals before installation..its perfect fit...is there any other reason why its still leaking? hmm.gif

I see. Will keep those brands in mind. So i believe the only difference to semi-syn and full is that full-syc is more pricey right? besides the slight benefit in lubing the internal engine...

Btw i thnk we drive the same black Bline persona. Ur avg L/KM seems decent.. Has it always been this way?

not necessary to use original timing belt.. They are priced more expensive than Aftermarkets and not necessarity better..
What i can recommend u is change Gates timing belt.. The whole package comes with timing belt + oil seals + bearings around RM300, then u have to buy drive belt - Bando recommended (dunno how much) and tensioner which would cost around around 150 based on ori price..

Or u can just go to EA there everything drex kasi settle.. haha..

Yeah.. he converted his petrol engine to run on NGV and also using engine oil which is suitable for diesel engine in his Campro.. He is going to testament to others the durability of Campro IAFM engines.
