so i just stick to booklet will do ..lol

OT = Engine Oil Treatment

EF = Dunno apa Engine Flush thing
1st time tak apa ..10k service need to "control" on all these addon stuff
*
last time they forfeited my 3rd free service, simply because i follow 6 months after 10k service, instead of 12 months after purchase. i was furious about it, but hey there are right, the paper say so. follow the booklet by whatever means.

Engine flush are done for cars that has very old with deposits from wearing engine parts, dont do it everytime. is no harm but unnecessary. not sure what engine oil treatment is. From what i see they are selling you an more expensive oil, the standard petronas SE is RM100. you should use 10W/30 not 10W40 which is a thicker oil, which may or may not affect FC.
"
Use the oil that is recommended by the manual. Just make sure it is a multi-grade oil which matches the service standard that is required. If you get your oil changed and end up putting a heavier oil in your vehicle one time, then it won’t become a huge issue. All it will do is lower your fuel mileage. However, the manufacturer could provide a recommendation to go with an oil that has a higher viscosity if the usage of the oil is more demanding.

My brother service my car at 1k , they also persuaded him to use more expensive oil. Rule of thumb, ask the SC follow the service manual 100%, nothing more nothing less. proton SC likes to add this add that telling you is better, NO! say it! often times they do not benefit anything, for example my case, they recommended my brother long distance oil, no point, 5 months later gonna change anyway. my last service they even charge me 7 bucks for washer fluid. 1 thing i kinda dont like Proton dealer SC is that they tend to sell you more, before hand i already told them follow the service manual 100%, and they didnt change my intake air filter. no big deal but i did rather follow exactly, as some component really should be changed at those interval old or new car stated in the manual. Unless you feel is necessary, dont fork out extra, those are just value added service.

I agree with you. It is better to stick with the maintenance plan as written in the booklet.

As for engine treatment, a brand new car does not need it. Furthermore, engine treatment does not really make any difference in term of performance and FC.

I have attached the service maintenance schedule in the first post where it is from Proton. Please do refer it before go for service to prevent the warranty being void.

hi guys is me again back with some fuzzy questions. This time is about head unit. From a standard variant i plan to change it to another unit with reverse cam. specifically this model.

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=DT1H2LZO3Yo

The colour code from the HU is easy to figure out
RED= ignition
Yellow=ACC
Black=ground
Gray/ Gray stripe(negative)= Front right
white/white stripe(negative)= Front left
pink= reverse light
standard variant only has 2 speaker so thats alll of my concern

on reverse camera installation

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vhz4R_W2A_4

Note that the signal trigger is the power from the reverse light.
Camera power : from reverse light positive and negative
AV input : red wire near camera connect to positive reverse light
red wire at the other end connects reverse light, and AV goes to camera

those above wiring is from the HU unit, where should it connect into the car?

https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=OThxY0oRjp0

From my car i see this

what wire is what? Does anyone has changed their HU and has wire diagram for it?

That is slightly higher than the recommended. What I know, the higher the pressure, the bumpier it gets.
