Unless there is something really wrong with the car, i won't go back to SC after the warranty.

They charge at premium as they try to bind consumers with the warranty.

Even though you do not have any warranty now, charges are the same.

Its really up to you.
Pay at premium at SC and peace of mind.
Or learn to know which part of the car needs minor/major maintenance and bring them to your regular mechanic.
(If you do have one)

Do not think that dropping your car to a regular Ah Beng workshop will ensure everything is fine with the car. There is a reason why the service record list every major/minor service itemised.

Mechanics won't be writing a diary for you, haha.

I'm slowly learning how to maintain a car properly and i just don't like paying at premium when i know whats best for my car at regular maintenance.

My problem is that I don't have any good mechanic
Any good mechanic can recommend to me? I'm staying at old klang road.
Many thanks mate

Mine is located at Lembah Maju. Quite a distance compared to old klang road haha 

If you are keen let me know.

Gonna DIY oil change later.

i changed to philips x-treme vision 1 month after getting my car cos at night like cannot see cos headlights to dim
ok lar, better cos the beam can throw further but still cannot match HID... maybe going for something brighter and whither when the bulb burns out

This evening I just change my standard bulbs to osram night breaker plus (got recomendation from tokey accesories)..i found out that original bulbs also use osram brand..
As the result..my trd headlight become more brighter and a little bit whiter..and most important comply jpj rules..hhehe

Hi, mind to share where you change it and how much it cost?
might want to change as well 

i wanna ask why there is a weird noise (tuk) coming out when i turn the steering when the car is idling there (not moving)?

Gonna DIY oil change later.

last week when to genting.... push abit.... looking at the water temp info from scangauge average reading during hill climb 90c~96c with aircond temp to the coldest (to make the fan run at the max speed) till our themostat open at 96c.

your case oso somewhat different than mine 

Shell - Average
Petronas - lack power/pickup
BHPetrol - 

All right guys, here is what i manage to get from the supplier... he is willing to loan one unit to me for testing purpose. Who wanna be the lab rat for this ? I am from KL, if interested then i ask him to make order for one unit for testing. Tentative should be around 1week to 2week.
