Hi all,

I just serviced my car for 50k mileage.

When at home I checked the engine oil level but realized that it is below the "H" level on the dipstick.

Question is, can I ownself go and buy a bottle of synthetic engine oil and top it up myself or just let it be? Since it is not at nearing the "L" level.

If I were to top it up myself, what brand of engine oil is the one TC is using? Because I didn't ask them what brand where they using.

Thanks!!

I thought normally they will leave bottles with remaining engine oil in your car? Anyway they are using idemitsu..

Thank you for your advices 😁
Hmm..
That's my mum's way of finance planning haha
She doesn't has extra money to buy more expensive cars at the moment as I just suggested her to buy a car few days ago
Almera's price is apparently at the edge of her budget, so if this plan doesnt work
I should just wait till next year haha
*
Since u can wait then may be car is not a necessity for u? Car depreciates as time goes by, if I were u I won't demand a car from parents.. buy a car yourself once come out for work.. that's what I do..

I would say that since your mum is paying... and it dont look like she have much money to spend. Be a good child and don't burden your mother. Although I like my Almera with no complaints. Why not get a small and compact car? Place with students usually hard to get parking, small cars help with petrol budget and parking space. Almera is way too big, its even longer than the vios.

Is there any problem with the gap between left front fender and tyre not the same as the other 3? Any problem with alignment?

this might due to weak battery. i had experience this last year. I informed SC about that and they told me is battery getting weak and suggest me to change the battery.... and i agreed...

but later of the day i just recalled that Almera battery is wet battery, so thinking it might solve the problem if we add battery water?  tongue.gif but i not sure la....the safest way will be sent to SC.

I asked SC as well n was told the same.. however they didn't suggest me to change battery at all.. told me like nth to worry.. rclxub.gif

where do you service your car? Kinda tired of SC keep charging so much already.

I only went to Chan Siow Lin and Setapak SC. Any other recommended SC?
FYI, here's the list (lazy to snap photo):
Air Filter Cond
Evaporator Cleaner
Oil Pan Washer
Engine Flush
Air Con Compressor Oil
Air Con Refrig
Oil Filter
Snow20 (rm100+)
PTT SR Brake Fluid
Valve Clean
Fuel Injector
MOS2 Engine treatment
Nissan ATF Matic S (rm200+)

any thing that could've been avoided?
*
To me seem valve clean, fuel injector n mos2 engine treatment are optional..

About the light, I think its not normal, because after I switch on my engine should be the all the light turn off and the Seat-Belt & Hand-break light will remain. But
the ABS & Air Bag light suddenly appear around 5 seconds.

Battery weak.. as told by sc..

Hi All,

Previously I and Jessieccy discussed about the light appear (ABS & Airbag) after I start my engine. This happened when my car almost 1y6m. Send to SC Batu Pahat, they checked my battery is at good state (89%). I ask SC about the light (ABS) appear after I start the engine, they say its normal. I thought that should be normal since Jessieccy also came out with the good reasons which is maybe pre & post check of battery.

Finally, I get the answer why my ABS & Airbag light suddenly appear. For all Almera owner (I don't know whether we all will facing the same problem), I detect that its the sign of weak battery. Last staurday, my battery totally flat, and need to change. Call the Nissan Emergency Customer Care 1800-88-3838, they said my battery need to be change (kena RM260, service come to your front door). Brand Hitachi (wet battery).

So just to remind all the owner here, please take precaution, if the ABS or Airbag light turn on after you start your engine, please check your battery. The battery can stand around 3-4 month until it flat.

Cheers.  biggrin.gif  biggrin.gif  biggrin.gif
Thanks all.
