QUOTE(toonny @ Jun 20 2016, 02:12 PM) I think he want the oil balance after the service. So far I only been to service twice (1k and 10k). Sg. Besi branch does not give back the remaining new EO. But 10K service at Equine park, they returned the remaining oil in the 1 litre pack. You mean new engine oil? How much oil they return to you?QUOTE(olivechong @ Jun 20 2016, 02:13 PM) I think what he mean is, the new bottle of engine oil, and what ever is left after changing, the unused oil left in the bottle, not old engine oil~ If perodua Glenmarie, they give back the remaining engine oil with it's original bottle without needed to request. So somehow there's some proof that they did change your engine oil, and that almost empty bottle is the proof. Ok la if that's what they want to prove themselves. But still doesn't prove that bottle of engine oil was indeed poured into your car, could be any empty bottle around their tong sampah...oh well, conspiracy theories aside, i'll just trust them in doing their thing since it is warranted and part of their free service package. As for the Honda case, i think it is a genuine oversight of the staff there. If it is really prevalent here regardless of car brand, that means the companies here are really shit head in the business ethics and moralities. I give them my |

QUOTE(wkc5657 @ Jun 20 2016, 02:04 PM) You use paddle shift means you engage manual mode. It is called manual mode for a reason, meaning, the computer won't do the job for you until you input what you want. It applies to recent models of mercedes and bmw also which i test drove before. Soli ah, should be pedal instead of paddle.. It will last about 5 seconds. If you reached the speed or complete your maneuver, upshift manually to lower down the engine RPM. There's nothing wrong with the car at all. If you think it is not fast enough, do it with the gear shifter, that one very direct the moment you push out of manual mode. Why do you want remaining engine oil back? They all pour exact amount (5L) into the oil sump after draining. They already give you free engine oil, some more want to ask more?? If you want your old engine oil back, please tell them so, but very unlikely they will allow you as it is messy and well go against their SOP and 5S procedure. Service centres (even neighbourhood workshops) will use a giant oil catch tank when they drain out the oil so in the end of the day, they can drain out that tank to recycle vendor. Unless you're into used oil analysis (which is extremely rare for normal motorist here and i can quite confidently say in this region other than large commercial fleet companies), there's no point for you keeping the old oil. If you die die want to have the old oil, the service technician can simply just pump the oil from the oil catch tank and give it to you, which already mix with maybe 20 cars/trucks worth of used oil. No way to ascertain that used oil is the one drained from your car. *correction : for outside workshop, most likely you can witness them do the service on your car. So less risk of them skipping your car's servicing unless you're away. And how are you going to dispose it properly? The SC/workshops at least will liase with those oil recycling vendor to collect. If really cannot trust the service centre, then either you request you be present to witness when they service your car (which they most likely won't allow) or do service DIY style on your own (not outside workshop as the same situation stated above applies). |

So it should be rightful for them to give back whatever unused item as they charge you in whole Litres of the engine oil.But if Mazda, with free oil, and still do that, almost charity leh....unless you opt for the fully synthetic oil that must pay la...probably will return about half a litre back to you... |

Do you guys usually top up extra for fully syn engine oi during the free service?
Would the semi syn provided for the free servicing do any harm in long run? |

Haha i think you over analyzed my post bro, i was just referring to the remaining new engine oil so that at least i can make the assumption that they poured it into my engine. But yeah, u can argue that maybe they poured it into their own tank and sell it later in the black market.

For free service, if like that....wa...charity meh...give you 3L back....

Replacement of parts is a different story. If you are being charged for the part they should return you the old part to prove it has been replaced. |

Skyactiv comes in as a package to offer you a better driving experience. So, every part has its own contribution to make it a good ride.

QUOTE(SK_C @ Jun 20 2016, 02:27 PM) this should have nothing to do with transmission. Just the pedal, and response in engine combustion... It's the program. When you drive aggressively, the gearbox will hold the lower gear for a while longer after you lift so that you have immediate power when you put your foot down again.You might also have noticed the car doesn't shift up as eagerly when you're in the middle of a turn. This is to avoid upsetting the balance of the car through the turn. |
