I'm just wondering why Civic TC require more frequent service interval compared to VW turbocharged and Ford Ecoboost?
Technology wise looks similar or VW/Ford have more experience in building turbo engine?

Maybe different size of turbo? VW and Ford definitely have more experience but it doesn't affect the oil change intervals tongue.gif

Maybe 0W20 oils are not as durable under longer term shear and stress.

wanted to get a color which is easiest to take care, black and white are nice, but taking care of them is a nightmare as they need constant cleaning.  rclxub.gif

Depends if you park your car outdoors a lot. White will not stay very white under such conditions and the dirt streaks will be very obvious. If indoors then white is quite ok to maintain and dust doesn't show compared to darker colors. Easiest to maintain is Lunar Silver but if you are a kaki kereta and love to detail your car dark colors are amazing when detailed.

Turbo charged engine generally runs hotter and would generally need better oil. Just make sure you stick to the oil recommended in the car manual.

Thanks. U give the best convincing advice. I'm also contemplating of white as well but since car out hot sun often, I think I take Lunar Silver. Only I didn't see much different with my present Alabaster Silver. True. ..is easy to maintain with this could scheme.

Follow your maintenance minder - check FAQ on page 1. IMHO just use RON97 for EURO4M fuel. Once RON95 is EURO4M, can use ROn95 too. But others may have their own opinion on this. It's really up to you.

Bro @shinchan^^, I been driving my brother's kelisa for the pass 8 years. This is the first car I manage to buy with my own money. So still consider my 1st car. Lol.  The car rather long and wide for me. But should be ok after a while getting use to it. Doing my tinting at puchong raytech now. Can't wait for the result
*
Bro, can share what tint model from Raytech you installed and what was the price?

Thanks for advice. I usually park my car outdoor, so dust and rain trails(i call them tear drop trail) will look very obvious and bad.and imo white will slowly change to slightly yellowish after a few years and then the color will not be nice if didnt maintain properly.(does coating prevent this yellowing?)

Anyone here using any type of body kit? The 4k+ modulo body kit looks not bad. thumbsup.gif

I think because you forgot to pull the parking break. If beep 3 times the walk away auto lock wouldn't work. Go back and pull the parking trigger, then the walk away lock will trigger.
