ahhh this firday cannot i got presentation to make..........do keep us informed

this friday got what????

suka hati lor.. decide when you wanna TT lar

sianz...anybody got contacts for ppl dealing in softwares? need to clear few stuffs

hey guys, since my hyundai accent has already finished its 2 years warranty period.. i'd like to have it serviced elsewhere rather than at the authorized service centre..

do you guys know any good, trustable and reasonably priced workshops that could perform the average service work?

btw alkt, how much did you buy the Q8 oil previously? fully synthetic or semi-synthetic? any recommended brand of fluids for automatic transmissions?

used semi-syn from Q8. about rm85. ATF i used pennzoil 1, about rm70-80 and i add together with Stopoil Platinum version, another Rm95

eh
pennzoil one so expensive O.o
i bought the Dexron III(forgot the III, or wasit II)
4litre for rm58 o.O

then another 8litres of adnoc image for rm240

Where did you get yours?
If i'm not mistaken, JFA also sells those Q8 oils right?
Ain't sure what transmission fluid to use.. and also, not sure what kinda workshop to go

errr, if u dun mind u can go to my workshop. i think they can cater to any cars now

eh just wanna ask, finish warranty already when servicing is it necessary to go back original shop to service?? like mine is federal auto malaysia (volvo) , service one time damn freakin expensive...............guess for a 10k service (first service) i have to pay rm600++ ....i pokai lo

well, imo if warranty period for the car is over i dun really see why should return to authorized service centre to perform the necessary servicing because you can still get the exact same thing done outside for less. Only peace of mind is that all the parts used by the authorized service centre are original parts.

my accent's 2year warranty was over in June 2006 and i just serviced it today at KS Power Sdn. Bhd. at Sunway for the due 20,000km servicing. I just serviced according to the service manual except that i additional changed the auto-trans oil as well cuz the fluid looks brownish and that it's past 2 years without change (service manual recommended the change at 40,000km ).

you can sell your car for more if you service your car at the authorized service centre

anyways: volvo's service that cheap one ar
servicing a BMW will costs u about 6times more

I don't really think that would be the matter especially if you are trading in to dealers. Even if selling directly owner-to-owner, as long as there's proof of regular services performed on the car, that would be good enough.

i guess that doesnt apply to malaysian
cars at foreign countries with full service history will fare a better price

porkchop, send to RS Impressive in Puchong la

bah, internet down since friday. now in office

wah liau.........puchong so far...i still got 2 years warranyt (they cover 5 years)

jackie if i service outside, how to prove to them "buyer" that i have service record?? casue outside wont "chop my book"............

i thinkin sell this car buy a super duper cheap proton (cheap car + cheap maintenance)....eh the other day i saw a toyota hilux, pump disel le....(rm100++ for full tank) i wonder anyone here know's how far can it go?? diesel sounds like a cheaper alternative

since it's still under warranty, you might as well continue servicing at the authorized service centre just for the sake of claiming for parts that are defective (eg. disc rotors, abs, etc) ..

since my accent finish its 2 years warranty.. i'll have to pay for parts and labour even if i service with the service centre, so i might as well do it outside for better parts (engine oil, etc)..

how to proof service records? keep all your receipts and make a note at the back with the mileage of servicing.. organize them properly in a file so that you can show it to your potential buyer

you need a reliable car, than a cheap car.. cuz if the car keeps breaking down and require replacement of parts or whatnot.. you'll be wasting all your time sending the car to the workshop for repairs..

cheers!

on a side note.. anybody wanna come out to TT this saturday?

The question is...where?
