Silver is known to "hide" scratches and dirt very well. Thats why in general, silver cars are more preferred and have slightly higher resale value smile.gif

First time i heard silver colors car have slight higher resale value. But i quite boring with silver color thats why i choose Elegant Brown for my EB.

Since you're using bluetooth connection, the reading is accurate or any lagging?

I have no first hand experience of OWV problem, even though I've seen other videos and couldn't tell what's wrong. Google for "Exora Overcrank" and you'll find them.
Is yours cold start or warm start? Did your kind assistant wait for the fuel pump or the ABS light to stop before turning the ignition?

Update OBD2 reader, list of available OBD2 codes:

EB code can read all in your OBD2?

Some question on the radiator fan.
How often the radiator fan will auto activate after turn off the car?
Sometimes mine one will on after a short distance, sometimes no on.
Same situation when i travel for long distance, sometimes will on, sometimes no when turn off the car.
Already send SC for troubleshoot but SC claim nothing happen.

If im not mistaken that the radiator fan will auto turn on when it reach certain temperature around 90 degree C.
Its quite worry me especially when im travelling long distance and the fan didnt turn automatically when turn off the car.

Did the Glassglow coating on Monday.
The Car now looks better than when it came out of the Showroom...  rclxm9.gif

Last year I did a normal Wax and Polish and that created lot of swirl marks everywhere...
So they removed that as well as all the minor scratches before doing the coating.....
(hope it will last for some time..... let's see...)

Mind to take our EB picture after the coating?

It depends on what type of engine oil you are using.
If u using Semi type , recommend oil change between 5000km-7000km ( can go to 10k km but not recommended)
If u using fully syn, recommend oil change at 10k km.

2nd, it depend on your car driving condition. Less drive, recommend oil change at 5k km ( mineral, semi syn or fully syn ). Long distance drive/harsh driving recommend oil change between 5k km-10k km ( fully syn)

In your case, better find out what type of oil (semi/fully)?

Rules of thumb,

Mineral/Semi - Oil change interval at 5k km
Fully Syn - Oil change interval at 10k km

I have ask a Proton SC in Seri Kembangan regarding the oil change interval which confuse me initially too.
To make it simple i summarize it :
Using Semi Syn oil 5w-30 ( For my EB )

1st service (1000km) - FOC labor
2nd service (5000km) - Labor charges
3rd service (10,000km) - FOC labor
4th service (15,000km) - Labor charges
