that cable tie on rubber hose thing works just like how steel braided hose works...

it increases the brake pressure, eeh...wait. increase isn't the right word. Should be Stabilize the braking pressure by preventing the rubber hose from expanding whenever the brake pedal is pressed. Since the rubber hose couldn't expand, hence more pressure then witchcraft happens and the car stops faster.

Good one! Now I realize tongue.gif
My previous ride also DIY brake hose. Not using cabla tight but the material taken from broken shower bath hose bought at pasar karat laugh.gif .
One with chrome thingy which you can removed by turning them round and round. I removed it carefully and DIY rolling back into stock rubber brake hose(must clean up the hose first la).
That time, no idea if it improves braking because my main purpose was to keep those hose from rats' bites sweat.gif

means remove the ori ones and stuff the hose in between the shower bath hose ?

I tried to directly stuffed the brake hose directly but it cannot fit. So, I removed the rubber hose inside and stuffed the brake hose. The hose look like thisPIC.
Later, friends displaying their car on autoshow also use the same material to gain extra point thumbup.gif

if I recall, both are 1L and the coolant needs to be diluted using tap water.

I thought using distilled water to refill radiator is better?

Hi Bro... notworthy.gif
IMHO many ppl do not realise Distilled Water, by itself, is (with its own peculiar characteristics) deemed 2b kinda "corrosive"...  whistling.gif

Using a suitable coolant wld prevent corrosion, rust formation as well as lubricate the water pump...IINM.  rolleyes.gif
(NB. The anti-freeze property of coolant does not apply in our climate.)

Noted. Few foreman said use distilled water is better that why I asked. I usually just run the tap water through until water become clear
during radiator service, then add coolant and refill as usual tongue.gif

Campro Owners
Does you guys' Campro vibrate a lot? I tested friend's 2009 blm and another new saga FLX and steering vibrate a lot when park in D. Not sure if this is a nature of Campro engine but even my Campro CPS engine got the same vibration when gear park in D' sweat.gif

Any solution for airbag equipped steering as I don't plan to swap with momo?

Thank you.

Plan to DIY checking the vibration caused this weekend. Will check the gearbox mounting at crossmember first as steering only vibrate in D gear.
N is fine.
Suspect the small spring (honk) also but no experience opening steering with airbag before.
