I think you ought to go SC best at Glenmarie (cosndiered Nasim HQ) to clarify this, question on warranty preservation is always delicate and we may not be able to give you an answer that makes you sleep sound

Worst come to worst, you may need to talk to bpth your insurer and SC about getting it done at SC where the insurance will pay the damage repairing/replacement cost and  since it is done at SC, warranty should be intact

AFAIK, warranty does not cover all wear n tear items, like light bulbs, tyres, etc. But a windscreen with sensors removal and re-installation is not wear and tear....

Speaking of which how was your front windscreen tinting done?, circumventing your rain and light sensor or WAS THERE some sort of sensor removal and re-installation work done?

While we at the issue of warranty void, i seriously wanna know how this thing works. Do they void just the parts and the related parts, or the entire car's warranty?

Example, if someone modify suspensions, then if brakes got problem can claim? If engine got problems can claim? Or they just void those parts that is related to the suspension system??

Coz i find it rather confusing on how they verify the claims. If say someone modify suspension, then engine got probs or gearbox got prob, then SC say cannot claim coz warranty void, i think thats quite shitty right? I mean, what does the suspension has anything to do with the engine??

To be very frank, those you are mentioning are grey area. Some SC will just ignore and proceed to submit claim on behalf of you, but some just being very unreasonable.
My advise is not to do any modification until your warranty is out. Not enjoy the car as it is 1st bro. If not, any modification, you will need to bear the consequences by yourself.
*
I agree with you. But honestly, shouldnt the warranty void be only related to the parts related to the modify parts? Instead of like the whole car. Hahahahahah. Coz honestly, its really damn stupid if like someone's warranty for engine or gb is void, coz he change suspension or he put some ICE.

Whats the color temperature

Crystal Vision 4300k. Diamond is 5000k.

But i read somewhere the limit is 5000k max. But then some say there is no limit to halogen, only apply to HID. I also dont know la. Just do first la. Then later see how. Plus, if you never change your side lamps, it will still bring some yellow-ness to you white halogen. So i guess pretty much is ok la.

Bro, my advise is not to go full white. I tried with my myvi last time. Full white, damn la la. When rain comes, I become more lala. LOL.

Agree about the rain part. Thats why i on fog lights during rain. But then again, 4300k - 5000k, i dont think is that "white" also. Thats just what i see ler. Like my 4300k, say is white, but i use already is not that white ler. Couple with the yellow side lamps, makes the white not really white. Maybe coz my headlamp is smoked, so not so obvious the white?? Im just guessing ler. But anyways, thats just humble my opinion from my own experience ler... icon_rolleyes.gif

No symptom at all man. On that particular morning, I start my car, then I straight away feel that the engine is losing the power. Then dashboard give error message.

I will suggest that the spark plug should be change on your 30k service. Else, you will be taking very high risk for this situation. Sianz. Charged me RM200 ++ just to change the spark plug. Coil was under warranty.

How come you have to pay for the spark plug? How come no warranty for sparks plug?

Hi guys,

I just serviced my car. Did my 10k km service. But mileage was only 6.8k km. I just want to clarify, my car is showing the spana sign and 3k km. I know that indicates that my car is due for service in 3k km. But i already did the 10k km service. Is that sign suppose to be there still? Should i just ignore it?

Thank you very much.

No need send back to sc la... Waste of time... U can do it yourself to make the spanar disappear... Just search in YouTube for the video... Just press and hold the tight button on the gauge meter while turn your ignition key to "on"... The screen will start count down from 10... After that off the key and the spanar will disappear when u start your engine...

Whoaaaaa....Thanks man....I feel better knowing i dont have to go back SC...Thank you....

Next, then how do i check when is the service on the screen?

Thank you.

Honestly it boils down to what kind of drive you like and what your priority are. Is power and handling is not the priority, then go for NA. If you like more power and handling at the cost of some comfort, THP.

No point going out of your comfort zone coz of price. Example, if today THP is cheaper than NA, and you buy it. But your first priority is comfort driving and family comfort, then u will be regretting the purchase coz you complaint the ride is hard and bumpy, etc etc.

So go for your own comfort zone and main priority. But from my experience so far, the ride on the THP is not as bad la...definitely not as soft and comfy as the NA, but is not bone jarring and not like ridding on a horse. For me, all these issue goes away when i whack into a corner and see how planted and stable it is. Even my other half was saying that my car take corner damn stable.....

Honestly if comfort is the priority, then forget Peugeot, there are other C segment cars which are far superior!

No offense meant!

Agreed. Civic 2.0 is much more comfy than the THP. Cant say about our 408 NA, coz i never tested it. But then i always feel that im paying more for a Civic/Altis 2.0 but getting less of what it has to offer. At the end, is what you really want. Just make sure dont make wrong choice.

Happy shopping...!!! =)
