hmm.gif. Slightly different from how the mechanic did it for mine. Pour in Dextron III then let the car run for a bit before removing the drain plug again. Probably works but it won't be as clean as how the guy did it in the video.

laugh.gif I'd rather spend over RM100 to flush my slush box than spend a few K for a new one rclxub.gif.

Actually flushing of engine and transmission IS NOT RECOMMENDED by most experts. It was used as last resort when everything else fails.....that means only if you develop problems and cannot be solved by any other means. Flushing has a risk of damaging your engine and transmission by clogging whatever pathways, etc.

Those that recommended flushing are mechanics who tends to earned much more from the service.

If you change your transmission fluid regularly, there is ABSOLUTELY NO NEED of flushing. If you really want to "flush", the best non damaging and clean way to do it is to fill your transmission, run it for a 1-2 km mileage, then change the fluid again. It will clean your transmission as well. If its clogged, that means you did not change tranny oil for long time, if cannot service and still clog.....then only last resort....flush coz got no other choice. If you flush even when your tranny got no issue, well....you might create the clogging yourself.

Actually an interview with Chief Mechanic of SPOON in Japan.....the chief strongly suggest to CHANGE ATF at every EO change. Main reason, engine oil got cooling system to assist cooling it....gearbox does not. So its lube is running hot most of time....tends to oxidize faster. If you rev a lot...then shorten the interval of ATF change. For normal driver like me, will follow service schedule (severe category).

ps. I'm an advocate of early lube change....some call me overzealous....lol, I feel so as well sometimes but in a way, I'm just buying insurance for my car....changing lube ON schedule, 5K-6K service interval even for FS is a CHEAP insurance for a car that I will used for over 100K mileage. By the time it hit over 100K, the insurance is to still maintain optimum performance for my engine and tranny. I've done it zealously for my 2 City and confirmed by mechanic that even when hitting 100K, the performance, vibration, noise and cleanliness of engine is practically on par with a 10-20K mileage car.

Ah hmm.gif. moneyflies.gif moneyflies.gif moneyflies.gif I'll probably do that when I have more money or if the ATF-XP3 is cheap.

Soundproofing? hmm.gif. If you're looking to make the doors closing sound nicer, that would be a great option. But if you're looking to reduce road noise etc then you should start off with fender / floor first.

#@$(!*$!*@($*!)@$! Was trying to solve my wiper skipping problem when I noticed my cat playing with a flying cockroach doh.gif. Then I remembered that I like leaving the driver side window down to air the car, and left it open for the whole night once. sweat.gif I hope that no cockroaches have found their way into my car sweat.gif.

Ok thanks. biggrin.gif Guess professional respraying is still cheaper.


Anyway, on certain occasions when the weather is very hot ( i.e afternoon ) and I enter my car, my glasses fogs up. Does this mean that my car has water content in it that's being turned into steam by the heat?

hmm.gif. Possibly. I don't wear my glasses unless I drive / read / go out. Water used to leak into my car too until I fixed the leaks. I don't know if there is still water in the car or not hmm.gif.

biggrin.gif Got my AeroTwin wipers today. Left wiper don't judder anymore, the right side's wiper's bottom judders a little when coming down but it's all fine now biggrin.gif.

Can a car respraying shop help bend the wiper arms back to shape to stop the juddering? hmm.gif. If yes, I'll probably ask them to do something about it since my car may be sent for repainting soon biggrin.gif.
