QUOTE(t1231 @ Mar 19 2015, 03:08 PM) Thank you. Another question. My friend just bought a new Altis latest model. He has done three services at the SC. He'd like to know after the first year, it is beneficial to keep going back to toyota SC to service his car? What kind of engine oil do they use for Altis? Can we bring our own engine oil? Should new car use fully-synthetic oil? i am also ... 2.0V highest spec after 1 yr usually im still servicing at SC... to avoid warranty inconvenient caused. im using semi synthetic all the way after first service.

QUOTE(sa10 @ Mar 23 2015, 12:42 PM) just wondering if two clicks of handbrake pulling only, will it be over tighten? nope. End of the day.. it will loose up and you will need more clicks to lock it properly. hence, servicing is required to re-tune it back to have only few clicks. its configured at the drum brake mechanism.
