10w-40

brand is pro-gard??...sungard i know..pro-gard never heard
from my quick search in google..doesn't seem to have a website
what abt warranty?

i think it will take time to get used to the CVT
i saw ppl in exora rev the engine uncontrollably
and for the highlighted part...i think your mom got her point, if shes driving and your dad sit beside...thn i think sooner or later, your mom would rather take the bus

switching from manual/auto to CVT isn't abt driving skill i think
correct me if i'm wrong
its more to getting used to
its more like moving from "have gear" to no gear
i saw a lot of ppl with their exora...revving it when driving inconsistently
i think they're waiting for it to change gear or something...or no power...i dn't know

this is call drum brake sucks
next time u buy car..be sure to check the car have rear disc brake or not
pay a little for future peace of mind

can..its possible
consider expensive...RM800 for everything if not wrong...i saw that last time

IRR 78%...this is more worthed
that person who previously want tint...can get this

Added on June 22, 2012, 6:55 pmhaha....dn't worry la
the problem with drum brake isn't good braking or not..no issue
its more to the handbrake part actually
cuz its not as good as disc brake and after u constantly pull it, it will loosen..so u have to tighten it back
and for the "peace of mind" part is that u never know when to service a drum brake
unlike disc brake...u know perfectly when to change the brake pad...and when have problem, its easy to diagnose
drum brake is a little more complicated...and its not as reliable as disc brake

ya...i've no issue with drum brake braking performance actually
my issue with drum brake is that it has alot of small small problem...and quite hard to diagnose and quite pricey to fix compare to disc brake where u'll know perfectly which part to change
and handbrake performance also not as good as disc brake...pulled 5 clicks also something still will slide back..but thanks god my car is auto
and another issue is..because drum brake isn't as reliable as disc brake...most of the time, i dn't dare to pull that mucj handbrake on my BLM(at most 5 clicks, mostly 3 clicks only)...scare it will have problems
whereas on my other car(rear disc brake)..every time i fully stop, i've no worry on pulling the handbrake...cuz i know it won't have any problems

IMO, my experience toward rear disc brake on handbrake is still better than drum brake
and 1st line said if disc brake is so good, why are drum brake still around
answer is very easy actually...becuz its cheap to install
meaning its cheap for car manufacturer to put into their car, but it isn't as cheap for us driver to maintain it
while disc brake is more expensive but cheaper and easier for us to maintain
thats why saga and persona dn't have rear disc brake..only persona H-line, preve and Upward have rear disc brake

which web did u check yours with?
becuz this is for blacklist only

huh?...i remember i got a parking summon few months ago which i didn't pay
and i searched that web...it said no summon
but then i searched back myeg.....it said no summon also
as if it dissapear already

nope....mine is issued by JPJ for illegal parking
it appeared in myeg already but i didn't pay
but checking it back yesterday..its not there already

the bandar raya one..i never paid also but mine very less
my friend in another hand like your friend got a stack of it...he put it nicely in a small plastic bag

its lousy workmanship...not lousy tint but of course the tint isn't as great as well

proton tint are also branded tint as well..its their workmanship
if u go outside and even choose the most expensive tint...but if the workmanship suck...u will still be going back every week to fix the tint
so workmanship is the key...proton and other car manufacturer cannot do it good enough becuz they dn't have the time to
a "proper" workmanship for the whole car(6 side) will take abt 5-6 hours or more to complete
if u go to a shop and they finished all 6 in less than an hour...thats consider poor workmanship already
a good workmanship require time and patient from the installer

its virtually IMPOSSIBLE for a tint done in 1 hour to have good workmanship
the rear mirror alone with demister alone would take 1.5-2 hour already..how can whole car done in 1 hour?..lol
those shop they did shortcut to make it faster actually
1. they never clean your window be4 they tint your windows...and dirty windows makes it not very long lasting
2. your windows will basically become a cutting board....instead of what most pro will do which is measure thn go cut the tint in their board be4 start tinting...these shop did shortcut by cutting a square piece of tint and cut it on the spot on your windows...thats why they did it so fast
and u will see a device that is somewhat looked like used to clean windows...they will use that to swipe the tint on your window so that the tint will stick on your window
and voila...they're done
they didn't even use the heatgun to slowly dry the tint be4 handing it back over to u
using heatgun to slowly dry the tint is very important...thats makes it problem-free for the years to come
my car i sent in at 8AM...i only get back my car at 3PM...it was suppose to be 2PM but he said the rear mirror got some trouble..so extra 1 hour

extra...somemore i saw another joke which is they install the tint outside(outside of the car), not inside which i was like WTF

yup....there was an accessories shop same row where i lived
and i always pass by there
i saw alot of "poor workmanship" there and alot of funky way from them to install tint
a few times already i saw them install the tint outside of the car...not inside
even my younger bro saw it and come ask me abt it

search around automotive garage
bendix should be enough
or u wanna try ceramic brake pad..whichever brand also ok

normal brake pad no matter which also will have dust
even the OEM one also for me consider alot of dust
if dust is your issue thn change to ceramic pad...i'm using them too
totally no dust

yes...u will spot alot of dust gathering on the rim...and yes its front rim
and those dust gather up very fast...u wash it..within 1 week, its back
and ceramic brake pad...no dust at all..rim is clean all the rim
brake efficient...definitely better than OEM ones but i think not as good as those performance brake pad like ferodo of course...my opinion,it really bites when if i brake strong enough

brake pad have a few kinds...ceramic is the new kind and its already advertised as less dust and it is...i've got a totally clean rim all the time
braking performance...i find it quite good and no problem
i'm using "Ceramic NAO Brake Pad"..find it in automotive garage
now performance car also uses ceramic disc brake...so it should be fine
