Haha, but I think the waze and google maps perform faster than Papago, maybe because the Papago is not on a pure gps device, but mixed with HU.

Bought car ady, is it Elantra?
Based on what I know, the price depends on the car size and age, the newer your car is, the cheaper it's.
There're few types of coating under sierra glow and their latest technology is called blueflame.

I used to have the contact but accidentally erase my all hp contacts recently, so I copy the below from their website. If not mistaken, the Choong is the owner/manager of the shop.

Sierra Glow (M) Sdn Bhd
No: 26 Jalan Industri USJ 1/3, Taman Perindustrian USJ 1, 47600 Subang Jaya, Selangor, Malaysia.
+603 - 8081 3732
+6016 - 217 0312(Choong)
sierraglow@gmail.com

Perhaps cos of the pricing and alw park car under the sun, I decided not to go coating.

I wish to be real sifu too.. can service car myself.. haha

Hey bro, how is the firestorm, is it works well? u'r taking the normal / super? or, K&N filter better?

I can agree with you that resale value of the older generation Elantra (which to me quite ugly) is pretty low, but this seems not apply to the new Elantra.

Let's take a look on the below examples on the used car price:

1. 2012 Elantra 1.6
Assume initial purchase price of 92k, and selling at 71k which is 77% of purchase price.

2. 2012 Honda City 1.5 E
Assume initial purchase price of 82k, selling at 62k which is 76% of purchase price.

The used car prices above are based on the actual quotes by used car seller on Carlist, however our actual trade in value should be lower and it may not be same over the longer term.
But at least you can see from here, the RV for the new Elantra is not that bad. And most importantly, we don't know what will happen in the future that may affect the RV.

dun worry, my first day also above 100km/hr (speed up without notice)..

Yeah, changed mine to BS GR100..

depends on ur tyre condition, u can try ask around.. For mine, quotes I get vary from RM60-200..

For trade in, I get RM700 for 4 tyres but for GR100, each tyre I get 290 but additional RM10 for metal valve and RM5 for balancing.

Most tyre shops in KL area can only give up to 150, and hardly to see any tyres that give good price for both, new tyres and trade in since they need to earn based on the diff between these prices. So their margin is small..
If wan better trade in price, do trade in your tyres earlier cos I only do the trade in after 2.2k km travelled.. initial quote from the shop is 800 (before viewing my tyres in physical) but got reduced to 700, when my travel distance increased from 1.5k to 2.2k..

Just sent my car to SC, to check on the swaying issue, but the SC say that they couldn't do anything except check on the car alignment and measure tyre pressure. They will then try to claim chamber kit for me, but not replacing the absorbers.

BTW, what do you guy feels about the brake? In low speed, I feel it's very good but when speed goes above 70, it seems takes longer distance to stop... forget to mention this to the SC.

if not mistaken, Sierra Glow HQ is near Subang but got new branch opened at Penang.
If wan do coating, better do it earlier cos can get bit cheaper when car is new (less polish and touch up needed)

Today just go pahang play half day, then back liaoo straight go SC check, I guess very high pressure is measured..
Glenmarie a bit troublesome wor cos only free on weekend, scare need wait till mushrooms pun out like the Segambut... me still 1st 1k service only.. haha

Saw this nice sharing in LYN K3 club regarding warranty coverage period. Wonder if anyone have it for Elantra.

Recently just notice that got new noise from outside the car with sound, "tik tik tik", the faster u drive, the louder it becomes. This seems happened after I changed my stock tyres to a quiter tyres, GR100. Perhaps my car now quite quiet so can hear this low noise.
I tried to record the sound but the wind noise blocked it. The noise is not so obvious but you can still hear it especially with window winded down. Anyone faced this before?

Could be, but the sounds dont seems come from tyres.. let me check it when gt chance, as I recall, stickers ady removed and dun have much "jarum".. haha..

I think this is more likely, but first few days din notice, maybe cause jam... maybe next week go HQ check..

I tot u got potent booster ady? Latest version is 8 drive compare to last time 6 drive. Nvr use both brand, but think pb better cos more exp..
