do agree that the personal alarm is good...
last weekend a lady uses the key chain alarm at pyramid parking lot...
sounded so kuat until whole parking lot can hear...
the robber lari like fool takut kena tangkap...
a good practice that she took out and hold the personal alarm while walking to her car...

due to KL always jam here n there for no reason, 10W40 would best suits my preve.
unless you stay in rural area and no jam at all, 5W30 or 10W30, as long as it's 30, should be more than enough.

anyone using this Syntium 3000 SAE 5W-40?
how much petrol you can save between 30 and 40, save a penny loose a pound (being penny wise pound fool) paying a bit more for petrol, for the peace of mind.


Added on July 17, 2012, 11:58 amjust went down to check my preve.

put newspaper beneath and check the dipstick, oil still at full slightly lower than yesterday though, need to check later after 5hours. please please don't leak anymore till i send in for 1k service and diagnose the car for any error.

this morning drive down too fast down the slop entering basement, heard loud sound, but after check front and back bumper, no scratch, i guess its the absorber i think.

i am really enjoying driving it, really big bang for the bucks. hope this feeling will stay on.

non-reserve parking bay, but before i park i will take a look whether the floor dry or got any objects on the floor.

that's why i'm puzzle, how come yesterday morning that puddle of oil was there on the newspaper.
if it's leaking definitely will continue to leak.
well, have to monitor closely. oil doesn't evaporate easily, if it was serious leaking.

Actually when jam, weight 30 lube would have better pickup and fc balance. THAT is why in CITY, recommend 30 coz jam lar....even on highway 30 still very good. Its those that run at high speed FREQUENTLY on high that weight 40 is recommended.

When you say save a penny loose a pound, I'm lost. Weight 40 does NOT means it have more protection than 30. Its just that it can withstand higher heat temperature and suitable for CONSTANT higher speed drive when engine have prolonged high temperature usage. When idle, it will not be as hot as the overwork high speed ride. Weight 30 and 40 protect the same at normal temp as the viscosity will thin the same at that temp. Its the high end temp that makes the difference with 40 being able to withstand being overly thin at very much temp. Daily non constant high speed driver would rarely reach such temp if ever.

When we say save FC, it comes mostly from increased pickup power. THAT is what most everyone wants, better acceleration = better FC unless you start revving kau kau, then whatever weight also no save fc.

I'm not sure tho how hot CFE will be compare to normal CPS. Since the manual listed 30, then you can be sure 30 IS recommended for balance drive of FC and pickup power. That especially is for city traffic = slower drive = jams.

Before information get miscommunicated, I would like to stress that it is not the exhaust that gets rusty. It is the bracket that was holding the exhaust muffler that get rusty. That part is outsourced from outside and probably the vendor didn't spray paint on it.

The solution for the problem is just spray some paint on it. Just like our house grills, we paint them every year to prevent it from getting rusty. Simple and yet, effective solution. No special treatment or tools needed to mend that rust.

Those kaki mod exhaust like me will know this. No rocket science involved.

u can bring your own engine oil there. most sc allow it.
but u need to inform them earlier (at d counter) before system key-in.
for new car preve, better u stick on fully synthetic oil for 3-4yrs or semi-synthetic at least.
based on my experience. brows.gif
