As long as the problems can be rectified, i don't mind. It is not okay if they say ok without solving anything.

in the past, i drove proton, warranty 3 years, although got few big issues, but once u under warranty, they didn't say much, replace for us...

unlike this tc, got problems also keep saying no problems doh.gif

Hi guys,

What upgrades have you guys done so far?
Planning to upgrade my head unit. The only reason why I didn't take full spec. No USB input!!!
Also, FC is quite bad for me. Best I got is 450/highway 350/city. How do some of you pass 500km???

*IMPORTANT: 1st thing, if your SA ask you to sign 'something' 1st bfr let you go see your car, kick his ass.
1. Check your Name, IC No on your grant.
2. Check your Engine No, Chassis No with those on the car grant.
3. Check for scratches on car, paint cond.
4. Check for spots, smear, wear/tear on interior fabric.
5. Check interior elec devices i.e Aircond panel, Multimedia console ... etc. & all those plastic switches.
6. Check your boot whether got spare tire & toolkit
7. Make sure vendor cop sign 3 warranty slip (Car, Sensor, Security & others), they should help you post 1 copy each.
8. Ask for any free 1, 5 10k service voucher.
9. In the car, check all lights i.e signal, emergency, low/high lights. Check all accessories like visor, sport rim, pedal, GPS ... etc.
10. Sign
11. If you found the fuel tank's empty, go say "Excuse me ..." and exercise your eye browse before your SA.
12. Don leave 1st, drive 1 round in place where you collect the car to CHECK ALIGNMENT. If alignment is out, ask SA to do it FOC for you.

... this is the basic one.

And they should give you a leather case for User Guide & Maintenance manual.

Anyone here service their car at Edaran Tan Chong Jalan Kemajuan? I noticed it is their practice to dump in those useless RESTORER engine additives (e.g. friction modifier, valveclean & hospower) into the engine with only 3 bottles of 0W20 semi synthetic oil.

The RESTORER crap thingy are locally made & I am more comfortable to use 4 bottles of engine oil instead of those crap.

Can we opt to take out those crap things and insist only on changing the engine oil?

why not?

u need to tell them don't want before they proceed
