60k is the scheduled major service which would cost $3600 +/- total. As most ppl find this a hefty sum at one go, SCs split the items to be changed at 50k and 60k. Show the SC your last bill, they can gage the balance of the major service to be completed and do not double change any item.Having to spend this large sum on maintenance appears high. But trust me it's worth it,the engine sounds new after the major service! It's music to my ears to hear that healthy roar form my Lion even after 3 years!
You do not have much time for air-con warranty, it ends by the 3rd year. Get that claimed right away. 4th &5th year warranty do not cover air-con.
That diesel engine sound is the timing chain tensioner not able to hold the timing chain tight. The slake chain is hitting it's guide and making the noise. Tensioner is a 60k replacement service item. Since your timing chain is already making noise, you better do the 60k service right away! Since it's service item and you are due for major service, you have to pay for this. Can't claim on warranty.
I am very glad SCs have changed to Mobil 1. Amsoil & Mobil 1 are my 1st choice engine oils. They provide the best engine protection in my books. I was waiting to end warranty in order to start using Mobil 1.
Yes is a major service and major sum.
Since my car was left idle for 4 months and current at 53K mileage, SC Ipoh adminstered the major service on certain components. The remaining will be done when my mileage is closer to 60K.
The bill came up to RM1,650.00 more or less.
Yes I believe, is a major driving experience after gearbox oil change.
Air cond compressor changed just today and manage to get priority. Put in at 10am got car back at 3.30pm. 5 thumbs up for Glenmarie. I spoke to another 408T lady owner, she is also claiming warranty for Air cond compressor. SC did acknowledge the original part was defective. Question is the aircond compressor lifespan is just shy of 60,000km? Not cheap close to RM5K (including parts & labor & inspection).
Timing chain tensioner will be change the next service. Estimated the 2nd half of the 60K major service will be RM1,900
