Your car all stock or got modification?

For engine oil I use fully syn, except during first 3 free service, 1k, 5k and 10k. They insist on giving the mineral oil, I have to argue with them to use semi Castrol Magnatec 10w30. Very lousy oil but SC don't have fully sync for 30 weight, they only have Castrol Fully Synthetic Edge 5w40. Too heavy.

Now I already switch to Nissan Fully Synthetic 0w-20 (made by Idemitsu). This is the best oil for this engine so far, very quiet, free revving and no sluggishness detected even at 10K km.

As for ATF, I insist on changing every 30K instead of 40K as per schedule. Other than that, everything else I follows SC recommendations.

Tyre pressure is 230kpa as per recommendation.

Aircond is auto, usually set between 20C and 23C.

Petrol is mainly Petronas RON95 (giving me the best millage) or alternative Caltex RON95. I can't use Shell (results like yours about 350km per tank only and pickup is sluggish), the worst. Other petrol brand is in between. Never used RON97 or Vpower before.

Driving style..... very subjective and irregular. No comment here.

Lol! Day 1 I got the car already pecut naik Genting

And the gear and engine is so free revving, easily shoot till 5K rpm.

CC5 now, already changed 2 pcs new Tyres but still pulling to left, before & after also pulling left.

SA keep saying OK, now I think really need to go other sc already .
Although complain to HQ, they need u go sc few times to verify , really stupid.
Want make us susah, give up complain

I have this 2 times, both time I go back SC make noise. They say tighten undercarriage and no more noise.

Weird... undercarriage can loosen ????

After that incident so far no such noise anymore... hopefully

Thanks bro.. Thank god at least someone face this issue. Maybe i should go back to SC to verify with them. The knocking sound is really annoying.

Have to check what oil they gave me. Car is at 34,000km.. i didnt ask

Currently on shell. Giving me consisten 320-330kms.

Air cond is at 23, fan speed 2 bars only.

Tire pressure always check and repump every 2 weeks.

Car is stock.

Yes. Driving style is subjective. There was once i super light footed, nv rev pass 3k. No diff also.

Infact, it apply to all car.
Since I was kid, always heard adult talked about this.
Rev below 3k until 1000km & first service

Thx!

*do not drive at constant speed... hmm......

I revved the engine beyond 3k but below 4k in it's first 1k. You know sometimes the car is a bit under power when it is going uphill.

, I wonder what the manufacturer is trying to tell us..

I did my first service around 800km, never exceed rpm 3k.. .
I got the car that time is about 50km.. ..


Before 50km SA or tinted guy got rev beyond rpm 3k I dunno lo

Cannot all the time maintain eg, 90km/h
Need 80 - 90km/h. ....
Up down up down ??

Try at your own risk... he has proven result with his way of breaking in new engine

Easiest way go to any accessories shop, or you can DIY yourself. Find directly underneath your car seat there should be a clip + wire attached to the bottom, just unplug the clip No need to buy those dummy seat belt

U know... U should be wearing ur seatbelt...

or buckle up everytime?

Buckle up everytime, but i put the seat belt stopper for more comfort drive RM 10 only

buckle up la....unless traffic jam like hell....

once over 2 mins, it won't make noise more, just blinking
