They changed everything they could. Except for glass and door.

The lining that contacts the glass is called run channel. The rubber that contacts with the door frame is called weather strip. The plastic sheet is called weather sheet.

All changed 3 times, still got issue. SA mentioned that next step is to contact Tanjung Malim plant, I guess if it reaches to the plant, it is door replacement.

Not weathersheet. The run channel which contacts the glass is leaking. Cannot DIY. Maybe the glass has defects.

The analogue reading is very inaccurate. +-10C, not sensitive.

Disclaimer: I'm not saying that any oil would cause damage to your engine, but the following are just for the paranoids. Please take with a pinch of salt, in fact many people survive driving their car with Minyak Buruh or 20W-50 oil.

Cold viscosity may seem unimportant for Malaysian weather but technically, the sooner the engine oil can reach optimum viscosity, the better it is. General rule of thumb is to maintain engine oil at 10 cSt.

Even at 40C, you can see that 0W engine oil is still far too damn thick for optimum protection, so please don't think cold viscosity is not important for our weather.

This is the tech sheet for Syntium 5000 SM 0W-30
Kinematic Viscosity, cSt
@ 40 °C 51.0
@ 100 °C 9.6

This is the tech sheet for Syntium 5000 SM 0W-40
Kinematic Viscosity, cSt
@ 40 °C 71.4
@ 100 °C 12.9

This is the tech sheet for Mach 5 SM 15W-40
Kinematic Viscosity, cSt
@ 40 °C 108.2
@ 100 °C 14.1
This cold viscosity will appear as honey-like liquid even at our room temperature. Can take more than half a minute to recirculate a cold engine.

Even the best oil, has poor cold start protection, hence the saying "there is no oil too thin to buy with money".

Rule of thumb to determine what hot viscosity to choose,
1. Maintain 10cSt at the highest temperature you operate your engine at (engine oil temperature) and compare with tech sheet. If you're not pushing to the limits, your engine oil temperature stays within 100C, hence usually EO companies gives you 40C and 100C viscosity for your convenience
2. If you are racing, oil temperature may reach up to 120C, in this case, some times your daily usage oil may be thinner than 10cSt. Slightly thinner is fine, as long as engine oil temperature can stay within your engine's specifications, rule of thumb is 60PSI. i.e. your engine oil thins up to 8cSt (for example) but there's still enough oil pressure, go ahead. Although with lesser pressure, the flow will be greater. Priority is flow, dependency is pressure.

If you have equipment to measure your operating EO temp and pressure, you can even decide that 0W-30 can be safely used on Campro. There are no best oil, only the oil to suit your needs

Don't do silly things to a turbocharger.

Hi guys, where can I get some good spark plugs? Brisk, Denso, Bosch.

Do you know what model is our factory spark plugs? I'm interested with the stock heat range.

Correction: 10W40. If 40W10, please drain the engine oil.
