my office on the G floor.. urs? if im in office i walk pass your car everyday after park my car or leave for the day... before i bought mine.. always look at yours and wonders when mine will arrive... hehe... your car always looks great - shiny... always wash ke bro? lets go for tea/lunch one day..

Same floor as well bro

Haha, didn't know it was catching people's attention - sent to Meguairs in Sunway (Shineway) for claying & waxing on the weekends.

I was contemplating of getting the Midnight Blue as well, but went for Silver because it's a lazy man's colour - dust isn't obvious and has the "sentiasa bersinar" look

We should probably kena one TT at Rims over the week !

midnight sky.. tell me about it.. its a dust and dirt magnet... i probably should have got the lazy man's color... anyway.. im washing my car more often than my previous car... haha...

don't tell me we are working at same place... AIGGS?

Haha, not the same place - anyhow, let's not spam the board - just added you on FB.

This car requires alot of upkeep alright - especially driving to Cyber; the dust, stones and heavy rain can really make the car look like a rally car at the day's end.

Anyhow, to all those staying around Sunway / Subang - do drop by Shineway near Sunway University, the level of detailing is good & the boss is a nice chap & very meticulous fellow - who also owned a Focus Mk2 before.

bro, can share how much is the price for claying and waxing there? hehe, looking for a place to take care of the frozen white 

It's RM98 bro - this is the walk-in rates but you may inquire for membership, package deals which is lesser.
You may try to see if there's any deals online as well 

hehe, thx for the info,    how long can the effect lasts?

Actually my aim of regular claying and waxng was to achieve following :-

1) Maintain the polishing that I've done for about 6 months
2) Prevent permanent water marks
3) Remove insect and bug splatter while driving on the Cyberjaya Highway

I can say with over 500km of driving in a week under rain and highway driving, either once a week or once every 2 weeks with a wash every week - all this depends on your environment and surroundings, as some do up to a month once.

Hello guys..

Just wanna ask whether any of you has ever install Voltage Stabilizer sold by EricTioh ?

His thread is ---->> https://forum.lowyat.net/topic/1289791

Seems a lot of positive feedback.

I plan to install into my new Ford Focus Sport + 2013. Do u think the installation will void my warranty?

Wow... doing a clay & wax every other week is pretty financially "stressful" doing it outside. Hope you are getting a good deal and that they are doing a quality job for you.

I've been trying to keep up the discipline of washing it myself weekly, and either a self-applied wipe-on wax or sealant every other week, but honestly have skipped a few weeks in the past 5 months of ownership. Did a clay once at the start, and recently just the hood.... makes a HUGE difference! Plan to do the rest of the car this weekend (barring bad weather).

Have yet to send it off for a professional polish, even though the SA said they touched it up before handover. Overall the look is still acceptable to my untrained eye; no noticeable swirls/marring.

*sigh!* The agony and the ecstasy of Midnight Blue!!

I notice from the thread here that some owners are experiencing judder with the transmission at >10,000km mileage. Is the judder more serious than when the vehicle is at 2,000km to say 5,000km mileage? Reason I asked this question is the juddering in my vehicle has reduced considerably to the point that it can be considered a non-issue. The mileage is currently at 2,300km.

For those who experience judder in the transmission, is the vehicle in D or S? I notice that the vehicle judder or rather jerk is more prominent in S than in D. In D the changes in gear under normal acceleration are quite smooth. Only in hard acceleration the shudder/jerk is stronger.

I recently had a bit of time shifting between D and S on the highways. With Sports mode, I find instant power delivery in mid-speed acceleration is terrific. However, the time taken to reach higher speeds appear to be longer than in D. In normal Drive(D), the accceleration to top speed seems to be more effortless. The needle on the speedometer just keeps going and going when the pedal is depressed whereas in Sports mode the acceleration from mid to top speed appears to be more restrained.

In summary, in my limited experience, I think Sports mode is only useful in low to mid-speed acceleration, and if one wants to reach a higher speed of say 170km/h or 180km/h it is more appropriate to leave the vehicle in D. Sports mode is useful when there is need to overtake a vehicle at speeds of say 70km/h or 80km/h.

My new focus is having grinding sound especially from 2nd to 3rd gear when i positioned it at D mode. Occasionally, first gear if jerking at the junction or traffic light.

Have sent to my first service after my complaint  but now is having back the same problems. and they said the grinding sound will not effect the performance of the car. 

Are you guys  facing the same problems?

can we go for service early? less than 200km before 10k km.. Coz wanna go back hometown this weekend..

Hello Focus Lovers, I'm thinking about getting the Ford Focus (non-plus) edition. Can you guys give me some feedback about what you experience has been so far with it?

This car has received much good reviews in the performance and handling department, plus it comes with 6 airbags to boot. I'm interested in how much of a premium I would be forking out vs say a Honda when it comes to maintenance down the road. If you've owned a Honda in the past and are a Focus owner now, can you chime in on that in terms or service costs, parts, friendliness and efficiency of the service centers in the KL area?
