Thank you.  thumbup.gif

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.

for a good tyre, the life span is around 30k mileage.

this includes consideration that rubber tends to get harden due to the compound and hot weather in malaysia.

i strongly suggest that you change it if its reached the 30k mark.

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.
