While doing my 1st DIY 15k Km maintenance service...since car was oledi jacked up & on axle stand (safe lo), me looked around 4AT GBox bottom & sides.

Not even @Torque Converter housing...

Except for that one "plug" in my pic above....

Good idea, Bro!
Btw can share how yu attached the sponge?
Dunlop glue?

Oh? Yu filled up the intake box below that plastic grating?
So much sponge?
Then it's gonna soak up/collect lotsa water when it rains/car is washed...
Wld that not b a prob?

Good Morning, Everybody!!
Day #1 of 2013...
Sincerely hope all Bros in good health & had nice start to this new day...

To be alive alone is a great GIFT!
Enjoy yr Life!!

IINM all new cars (after delivery from assembly plant/warehouse) shld hv seats covered in plastic wrappings...

In my case, even the seats adjustment levers still had their plastic protection on them!
Interiors had the new car "smell", if yu kno wat I mean...
And all QC labels/part nos. were new & clean...someeven with the date of installation..
Engine compartment was so spick & span...phew!

Malu saje now...compared 2wat it was @delivery time....

Hi & Good Morning, Everybody!!

How was Day #1 of 2013? Good?
As alwaz in Life, there will alwaz b good things happening & also not-so-good things....
As in 1 philosophy me hv read, 10% of watever happens is BEYOND our ctrl....
However, 90% of it is how we react 2it...WITHIN our ctrl! True?

So do b positive & react positively 2watever happens this year or in the future, ok?
Yup, yu may hv probs with yr Gaga...in between yr enjoyment & fun with it...
Juz need 2take positive action/steps 2overcome those probs...
And yu'll continue 2enjoy yr beloved Gaga...again!!

Hi Bro YAB...
Chinese say "Bad Luck juz passed yu by...now Good Luck coming liao..."
So be positive & 4a better 2moro...& rest of year!!

ps. Know yr pain, Bro....
However philosophy me try 2encourage in earlier post is good 2understand & practise...
Lessens the pain & provides comfort where & when we need it...

Hi Bro...
Many tks re posted pic!
However, me looking 4location of ATF Drain Plug so can release old ATF 2replace with new @20k Km 2carry out own DIY maintenance service...
Any idea where it is? TQVM in adv.

ps. How abt trying "servis bawah bumbung rumah sendiri"?

Most items in service schedule can b easily carried out.
And with $$$ saved (min RM100 labour charges), one can do lots eg recover cost of tools & save $$$ sumore!

H7, Bro....

Hi Bro...
If mech @SC is responsible guy, he shld chk s/ware ver b4 he does any reflashing....
Not juz blindly do...

Yup, Bro, me kinda gave up on warranty long long time ago....
Baru saje me replaced disc brake pads with Bendix Stealth...my latest DIY lo...
Hv alwaz hated idea of being "threatened" by threat of present day "Warranty Void Syndrome" by car makers!!
Dun give warranty la if one not even confident over one's own products...alwaz trying 2find excuses NOT 2honour warranty given!!

Put it in another way, Bro...
Me enjoy DIY-ing...a way 2get "high"?
Fun...Fun...Fun!
Anyone game?

Feel lebih baik& berbaloi buat bawah bumbung rumah sendiri...

Bro, me rber reading in FBk someone oledi ordered @RM400 a pc ie RM800 a set...
That guy was awaiting delivery liao...

All of them were "collected" as a result of my "hobby" doing my past rides over the years...from $$$ saved by DIY-ing...

Hi Bro YAB...
No la, Bro...pls dun so scare ppl even b4 they hv even started la...
Doing oil change shld not cost an engine 4our Gaga...
**Tip : NEVER overtighten anything...
Alwaz tighten by hand FIRST...with NO forcing wan.
If really scared, can invest in a Torque Wrench(?). Then No Fear liao. : P

Frankly, like yu Bros in KL area, with so many of yu arnd, doing a kinda co-op style DIY maintenance wld b very rewarding in terms of $$$ & FUN doing things 2gether!!
Yu hv talented & trained Bros there, in various fields & expertise...true?

And yup, Bro YAB, our Gaga oil sump is made of softer material than ole gen Saga/Iswaga ie made of aluminium alloy rather than steel.
However, the drain plug now also uses a copper washer (called "gasket, drain plug" in SC bills) which acts as a seal cum ctrl over over-tightening it.

So as long as that drain plug is not movable after tightening by hand & a slight xtra tug (not body wt), it shld not loosen, being juz a plug?

Sincerely hope my clarification wld encourage any Bro keen on DIY yr Gaga punya service maintenance...starting with a simple oil change.

To start off :
Observe how the mechs do it when yu send yr Gaga 2SCs 4service while new...learn step by step!
Best wishes...& Good Luck, Bros!!

So sorry 2hear re above, Bro...
Feel yu started off w/out sufficient guidance/knowledge and thus the consequence....
Like in saying "Knowledge is INvaluable!"

NB. 1 thing me hv learnt when doing oil change 4Gaga. Replace the copper washer 4Drain Plug! That soft copper washer is compressed & becomes thinner/flatter each time yu tightened the plug, resulting in the plug going further into the sump drain hole! This cld result in over-tightening the plug!!
The washer is very cheap 2replace...

Frankly, like stated b4, me hv also "LOST" some $$$ along this road of DIY-ing...
However, it's a good lesson learnt...that's one one improves one's knowledge & skill. Agreed?
In Life we fall & when we get up, we are stronger....

Me feel sure many of yu Bros hv got into accidents, as an example. Result? Loss of use of car and repairs costing hundreds or even thousands of $$$$!
Do we stop driving?
Nope. We find out why the accident happened AND improve on our driving skills. Correct?

From my own experience, a no of mechs hv also caused damage 2my rides. If not 4my own chks & discovery, they wld hv kept mum over their mistakes!
In Proton SCs, mech turnover is high. Yu'd find mechs who dun hv the aptitude 2b mechs at all! Serious....

Anyway, me juz trying 2motivate yu Bros NEVER 2b scared of making mistakes in Life while pursuing yr interests & hobbies.
Yr Gaga is yr ride, yr ...
Ultimately, YOU are the Paymaster....
Yr choice...Yr decision.

Btw Good Morning, Everyone!!

ps. For first timers doing DIY, good advice is to prep well, thus eliminating unforeseen probs. AND, if possible, do so with someone who has done same b4....Good Luck, Bros!
pps. Me hv alwaz had 2DIY alone by myself...so gathering info & prep well has been my only way...
