"Pattern" meaning strange marks or scratches?

Not scratches but some swirling markes.

See liao very sad.

ahhaha.... shackks.... thats y i give up when i 1st wax the car... seems worst den b4 wax.... hehehe plan to do 2 layer outside later this year... maybe next year b4 CNY... hehehe

Oh ok, u are using your handheld to surf via WiFi lah... Yeah, i have to agree, not used to surfing with that small-screen device...

Speaking of the waxing, how the stains look like? Those oily marks that are in circular motion, something like wiping your spectacles with oily cloth?

yeap... something like that. Its like trap between d paint n a layer of invisible wax. no matter how I wipe, those mark won't comes off.

My god... Such a pity, that type of stain is now stuck on the body... Do u plan to see the specialist guys to find out how to remove those stains?

ha! ha!.. tried 2 surf the net via a PDA b4.. it was horrible.. gif it up unless there is emergency email o something like that..

there is this kit car wash that i have which is a waxing liquid.. it seems 2 be working fine on me.. i do not haf the stain that u haf (except those trapped in between the rubber/plastic and steel surface ) i kind of kedekut using the liquid wax bcz i scared i haf no enuff energy to circulate the surface (it's tiring!! ) i do it portion.. (1 day on bonet, the other day on the left doors and so on.. he he

exactly. I've experience in car detailing as I'd run a car wash shop b4 but this is totally something new. Will have to polish twice(one to remove d wax n another for d shine) to remove those marks permannently.


bro,
I would advice you to stop using d Kit Wash & Wax pack. They're harmful to d paint especially new car.

cheers.

Oh ok, never knew u ran a car wash center before, shackks... Anyway, with your experience, hopefully u can get those ugly stains off your car!

hi guys... im back from my trip to penang.. anyway i have done the Gearbox cooler, manifold and throttle body wash.
install a DIY OCT 2... Thanks to the help of Kevin and advice before from shackss.

so my report is the gearbox cooler is a must for auto gen2 cars. The difference is better gear changing, really responsive... e.g. last time when we full throttle gear changes take time and the rpm will climb to 6 then only drop back to 4 when the gear changes... now instant gear changing...no more delay... Now u can really Rev the car up without worrying of damaging the gearbox... Another added bonus which i could not believe is a drop in engine temperature...really significant drop in engine temperature.

This is the gearbox cooler...its like a mini radiator...the other items there is the throttle body and injectors...which was also taken out with the manifold to wash it


Gearbox cooler Installation


taking out manifold


Manifold Before


Manifold After

woah.. the cooler really improve so much..... cool... btw... is there any cooler for waja?? my dads car just like u... full throttle it takes time....

Wah, great job there... How much did u pay for it, btw?

eng u can use the same thing for waja as proton cars do not have this item....oops sorry forgot to mention about the price...

the gearbox cooler + tubes+ service and installation = 250
manifold and throttle body wash = 50

bro, all these just for 205?? itz definitely a good deal, bro.

yeah i know bro...that is y i did it in pg...when to visit my sister and friends so one shot did it there....

Bro,
How long does the installation takes?

i was there for 5 hours but the gearbox cooler i think less than 2 hours..

hmmm... 2 hours and RM250 for better gear response. maybe I'll do it next month when I'm in penang. Who did you contact when you're there to do the mod, bro?
