I'm using bendix metal king, with stock rotor. But the braking power seems to be weaker compare to my old stock brake pad. What could go wrong? And the brake 'smell' is kinda strong

David, why they build it like that....weird...2 jab on throttle but 1 signal only...

zeone, I've taken out the gaga TB before and I only can see the idling hole and the DBW module but maybe the TPS is built inside the DBW module also.

l intend to change to it also. but after reading comments from users
the optimum operating temperature is higher thus at cold start, it doesn't perform - need to warm up .
l think long distance + high speed or genting type of road would be excellent.
stock rotor is not suitable as the rotor material is soft.

still looking for a better pad, can Sifu recommend?

bendix metal king isn't that good either on genting roads, especially downhill... fade out quite fast when reaching its temperature threshold.

my collegue husband use it on genting road its a mit lancer while stoping gotong jaya, there are sum smoke coming frm the brake area...

but i dunno izzit brake pad or wat.. (use metal king as well)

try Rapid Stop brake pad 500C...is already sufficient for daily usage and aggresive braking

Wasted RM 114 liao.

My friend's Myvi metal king finished in just 5month time

your bendix metal king RM114?

softer pads more gentle on rotors, harder pads your rotor will wear out very fast. pads is cheaper than rotor anyway....the worst I have was changing 2 sets or rotors in 1 year 4 months. Due to using race pads...very less dust, noisy and need to warm up...but brake is super duper when it's hot.....can brake until the rotors start to glow red

Where can install Saga FLX electric remote side mirror?

Hi Bro...

Tks 4response...
Feel there shld b TPS cos using OBD2, readings can show throttle opening %age...

My magician said skimmed also same one will come back coz metal king to them is will eat rotor abit. He said most brake pad also like that so he recommend me buy aveo brake pad from GM. Btw my rotor no issue why need to skim? Coz my stock pad is even wear n tear rate. Even he also said change brembo rotor also same so now i go hunt aveo brake pad then only skim rotor.

Hi All,

Getting my 1.6SE next Friday in Ipoh. Hoping to join u guys soon.

Ipoh lang?

Thanks to everyone's opinion re my earlier questions about the foglamp

r3apers

white bulb with yellow tinted ?

Nope, normal stock yellow bulb with yellow tint

Change brake pads, rotor need to skim. Reason for skimming is because at times you will notice that the rotors has some grooves in it shallow one or deep one that is due to debris stuck between the rotors and the pads. The naked eye see is even but it's actually not. That's why after you change a pad without a skim disc you will notice the rotors some area got contact some area don't have. It's very visible if you wash the car and the rotor got slight rust on it and you go drive around and see some area the rust gone and some still there. For me I only practice skimming the same disc twice only. Then change the rotors.

the stock bulb with yellow tinted??
looks nice
i wanted to make yellow tint on my fog lamp too actually.
u tinted it yourself??

TitanRev just want to confirm.
You are using OBD2 wifi reader + DashCommand and it's running fine on Ipon ?
