Haha then we work together. You try A, I try B. But so far i know stock Ori,start to squeak at 20k km. This Bando actually start squeak at 40k km. Which is very much better. I actually can't see much cracks. Well, I don't want to waste time tighten it, just change new better.

So now u are using bando or ori nissan 1? If bando 1 i just buy tc 1 is it?

I haven't change. My milage not yet reach. I did ask my workshop, he did say it's Nissan belt. Rm110 include installation. About month end only I should reach my 100k km milage.

Edit: I just went and check visually. Apparently my belt now. Is actually Nissan made in Indonesia. Visually, there are no cracks yet. Maybe it can be used longer just tighten a bit. Used since 50k km, March 2017... I mean u decide, I don't want to force you. If u have budget constraints then try OEM. Whichever feels ok with you.

Ori nissan also not really expensive at shopee.. guess it is a genuine 1 I suppose?

Great do share if it still last after. 6mths. I use PIAA refill blade on ori metal frame., after 2yrs already still good. Bosch is the worst. Never buy it, avoid at all cost.

What's the problem with Bosch wiper blade?

Sure buy from lazada or shopee is fine. My only advice, buy from a branded manufacturer. It could be OSK, Denso, Fram...etc. u can tell from their multi color packaging. Just dont buy those with Nissan logo box (all are fake, plus the shop claim is OEM anyway, so there's no Ori Nissan for cabin filter)
i dont really like carbon filters, hard to install and if you deform the filter, the shape dont bounce back. I personally like OSK, value for money, i can change 6mths/12mths as i like.

Any noticeable difference after changing cabin filter? I have never change it since 4 yrs ago after my warranty over.. last change still in nissan sc..

cheapest is MrDiy AEROPAK - foamy, but a bit sticky. Make sure wipe off residue. or spray a bit of water to rinse.
WD40 AC cleaner (no flex tube though) - less sticky, less foamy, cleaning so so.
8Line - very pricy... I never buy and try.
Klenso (home type AC spray) - very foamy (it will chemically react and produce some heat), melt into water, not sticky. I tried on my home AC. i wanted to test for the big radiator though... havent buy yet.

How's the mrDiy aeropak? Cleaning ok?

Its fine for lite dirt. It's less than rm15. If you see those chronic black and dry till cannot see any fins left... I am so sorry... That may need 2 or 3 pass. Or stronger chemical type. I think the wd40 one was almost rm30 or somewhat there.

WD40 one cleaning so so right as u mentioned just now?

I think they all say NTN. Now in the market usually made in China. Some managed to find made in Japan. Not sure. These days dont hear much complain on bearing...

Still common till now is AC related.

Actually what's the brand used by nissan service centre.. not lasting n keep giving prob.. doh.gif btw what AC related issues i need to watch out? Hopefully not the radiator fan again.. doh.gif

Just bought an osk cabin filter.. may I know what's mean by the arrow n the word "up"?

Updated: contacted osk and was told the arrow didn't mean airflow direction.. the arrow just to show the side facing up for those cabin filter inserted horizontally.. for vertically placed one like almera the arrow should point against airflow direction.. just to share my finding..

if you still have some parts broken left then maybe cement it. rm300 or so... i think ori last time was RM1100 form SC. I cant recall the ori material... now maybe you can get one from rm500-700
*
Just the front skirting cost 1100? Dunno is that expensive.. thought just plastic should be fairly cheap..

I say give up. Unless you have the time to kill. The hand brake there very mafan, unless it fall to the side... It's really hard to remove. You need  Allen key, philips driver, plastic pry tool, star key.
Remove the gear silver cover, pry near the handbrake, pull upward with force, spring clips only don't worry won't break. Then remove the front plastic + screw, push and unscrew with force, if not the bunga eat off.  pull the clip. Remove the 4 star screw at the gear lever. Remove the two hex screw at the rear then can come out. 
https://youtu.be/skx4JeGb8JM start at 2:3n0 there

I don't mind leave the coins there.. but just wondering will it cause any problem to the handbrake? like stuck somewhere n jam my handbrake? If no safety concern i will be happy to just leave the coins in there.. haha
