can semi-syn 10w40 engine oil run for 10k distance? or should I change to 5w40 full syn if wanna do service at 10k interval?
*
Castrol semi syn.. 10w40 engine oil. Reached 5k change engine oil. the engine oil still look clear... Not like others cars... very black..
Anyway dun use semi sync for 10k.. engine performance will be low.. and harm ur engine.

synthetic! not synchronize!

also any semi syn can put 1% synthetic base stock and call it semi when 99% is just mineral base stock.
pretty much why they just don't last beyond 4-7k km depending on which semi syn you bought.

Thanks for the correction. A lil typo.

i see, but now 7k already half  hmm.gif
first this is new car, just nearly 7k km. next service will be 13k km.
how to check the leakage?
how to add brake fluid? need to go to SC or any normal car workshop can do? void warranty or not if add brake fluid outside of SC?

#sorry,this is my first car  sweat.gif  sweat.gif

Just open your front car bonnet.. There is 1 small bottle tank near to your wiper area ( right hand side of your car engine bay)
Open it and just refuel the brake fluid.

Sometimes new car also will having this problem, not all new car is problem free.

Last time when I get my new car, my power steering having problem, and got warranty after 2 weeks I get my car.

Thanks for the info on the canister purge valve.
After doing some research in the internet, this is also a common faulty part along with the IAFM.
Apparently i saw one which says this is the culprit which causes the IAFM to kaput.
I will change it this Saturday  laugh.gif

hahahah,no problem,i am thinking to get rid of my whole iafm unit,kinda fed up already....hopefully replace it with vvt, tongue.gif  tongue.gif
*
IAFM is just a plastic Manifold.. Dunno why Proton dont want to use metal.
And the IAFM manifold easy to having problem, and cost for new unit is 300-400+.. including labour cost will die..
Dont think can change to VVT.

Haha.. Keep me update if you success change to VVT =)

Anyone here replace the gasket? is there recommended to replace currently about 70K, seems oil leak around the head gasket. In fact, nothing new, been notice even before end of warranty, just the SC said was not covered, so just leave it until now.

Recently service, the technician show me and ask to replace or not?
Top Gasket was cheap about RM80, bottom part also sign of leak, again not serious until engine oil drop on the floor. Bottom one about RM120, and need almost half day to do it.

Should go for it? If just leave it any harm? My observation was, the little oil make the dust stick on it, so look dirty only.
*
Mine also have minor leakage on the top and bottom.
But i add 1 STP engine stop leak to the lubricant there. Now no more leakage.
If your leakage is very serious recommend fix it asap.

Not serious, just can see the dust accumulate there. Not really notice the oil.

Was 3rd year + now, mileage 70K, still about the same. If not really harm, just drag, maybe can last few more years.

When google up, can see few blog, they DIY change the Gasket and glue back themselves.

Btw, for those after 60K, please counter check your Engine Belt (Not Timing Belt) for Water Pump, Air Con & etc. Mine notice some crack, and already change it.
*
Mine just reached 50k ytd. Edy have minor leak. Lucky notice early and solve it.
If leak again really need to change gasket or re-glue it.

top shud be able to do it by ourself. Botton 1 is hard. Unless u r mechanic.

Both also I didn't plan to DIY. Don't want take any risk, as I'm not expert in this area.

Ya, bottom they told me need to dismantle a lot of part, and even glue it back also have to double check make sure everything was in order, and no leak.

For me there is another risk of getting worse!
*
Others part I can DIY myself. But not the engine part.
Too risky

If really worry, then wipe clean and keep jalan for another 5 to 10K, see how bad is the leak. If still same, only dry dust, not wet with no detectable reduction in engine oil, I'll just leave it.
*
Ya, I wipe mine clean using engine degreaser and put STP Engine stop leak. Now leakage gone. Tested drive to penang and back to KL no sign of leakage.

Yes, different design, I found it is difficult to wash the inner side due to the disk brake and tyre gap is very small.

The prebios version also quite hard to wash.

There is so many small corner of the rim.
