I thought it's normal to have some rusty spots on it? Even its only a day of not driving it. After u apply brake for a few times the rust will be gone.

shocking.gif Is normal .. especially after rain or kena water.

Stock suspension. No big difference la. By calculation, 195/55 only causes the car to be lower by about 10mm compared to 195/60. Tyre looks slightly smaller if you stare at it long enough lol.
That's Bridgestone's equivalent of PS3 or higher?

My tyre is quite new. 4x15, forgot it's 43 or 47.
I feel it's more quiet now. Not sure placebo or not but probably real because new tyres at the front.
*
almost equivalent. some say re003 grip is better than ps3. but re003 is noisy than ps3.

PS 3 treadwear 3xx

re003 cheaper ( 15 inch )

re003 grip better dry and wet ( persona experience )

ps3 quite , when left 40 % wear will become noisy.

Hello to all the sifu's out there.

I just bought a 2009 Persona (1st gen, not special editions or elegance) with IAFM.  it is a manual h-line.  Need to ask for advice here.
[COLOR=red]Highline dont have Manual. Highline only have auto only

1) my brake discs are quite thin. I think these are the original discs from the factory, and now it's not biting well.  my dad says can skim but i think it's better to replace.  any advice?  if need to replace, i don't need performance parts, normal discs can already.  any good brake shops to go to?
if thin then dont skim.

2) my engine starts to have a tak-tak-tak sound.  I think it's the (in)famous iafm problem.  Since the sound is quite soft, should I go to a workshop to repair it or should I replace it?  for all the bros who replaced their iafm, did the problem come back again?
[COLOR=red]repair 1st.

I was quoted at proton edar larkin in JB that the cost of replacement including labour is RM600+.  I read from previous posts that RM300+ can gaodim everything with labour.  Is the RM300+ quoted by a service centre?  Should I replace at a service centre or go to 3rd party workshop?  Is it true that later batches of iafm module uses thicker stronger plastic that won't crack?
[COLOR=red]now no more 300+ already. The IAFM manifold already 5xx not include labour

3) I saw that there are some recommended service centres in the first post of this thread.  any recommended SC's or 3rd party mechanics (good, professional service) in Johor?  Likewise, any good, honest stockists in Johor to recommend?

4) can I use 5w30 engine oil in the persona?
[COLOR=red]Can, if your car dint makan engine oil or no leaking.

So far I have used the car for 3 weeks, fuel consumption is about 12km/L, 30% city 70% highway.  Hopefully it can improve after I send for servicing.

Btw I'm from singapore and I just got this car 2nd hand.  Not too sure what the previous owner did or did not do but overall seems decent enough.  this car is quite cold door here so I was hoping for some lobangs from this thread.

Thank you!
