Wow what a lucky guy you are!! RM500 is the best!!

Anyway today went to change to a bigger size battery!!

Many people are misinformed about using a bigger size battery. If you are using a bigger size battery, your alternator may not have the capacity to fully recharge the bigger battery. In fact, your alternator may fail sooner as it has to work harder to fully recharge the bigger battery.

It is advisable to stick to the original size battery but get the battery with higher Cold Crank Amp (CCA). This will allow your car to start easier.

And when you start your car on the morning, most of the time the temperature light will be lite on with blue light. I have checked the manual, if blue light means the engine coolant fluid is cool.

Did you all wait the coolant fluid to normal temperature and the light goes off before start driving ? I try waited sometime when I am not rushing, I not even turned on the AC. It will take few minutes, sometimes it is kinda long especially when you are rushing.

Should I wait every time? Is it bad for the engine if the coolant fluid is still very cool ?

It is recommended to drive on even with the blue indicator on...As idling in morning consume more fuel when the engine is cold.

However, when drive during engine is cold.. It is recommended to keep your RPM range below 2,000 as the engine oil is not heated up to the optimum operating temperature.

Once the blue indicator is gone.. If can drive as normal. I do recomend to let your car travel for about 10-15 mins before you plan to high rev your car.
