Thanks again for the detailed response 🙏 good to learn new things from an Expert like you 🙌🙌🙌👍
2. I value workmanship too 👍 Heard about this shop as well, coincidently while searching for rim lock nuts 😂
They sell a decent Taiwanese brand and also air filters. Their prices seem reasonable to me but I'm no expert.
Good the hear they're a good shop. Heard they also kit out rally cars. May give them a try.
3. Unless the stock tyres are really bad, probably replace tyres after a year, otherwise what to do with stock tyres? 🤔
Unless can trade them in when buy new tyres... Do TEOH Brothers do trade ins?
4. Will Perodua SC allow me to bring my own oil and parts to change at the service intervals?
If it wasn't for the 5 year warranty I would try to do most of the maintenance myself. Read in another forum post that Myvi maintenance cost is higher than Honda Jazz/City!
Yeah, heard fully synthetic is a lot better for the engine and long lasting than semi, but since the oil is changed at least every 6 month is it really necessary to use fully synthetic, considering its more expensive and the frequent change intervals?
Any recommendations on an affordable fully synthetic oil?
5. Good point, makes sense. 👍
TQ
I have never been to TEOH Brothers myself. But yes they do trade in bec I WhatsApp and survey before. 2. I value workmanship too 👍 Heard about this shop as well, coincidently while searching for rim lock nuts 😂

If klang there's always 3 places u survey
TEOH Brothers
Jooi Seng auto - look for Ah hooi
H20 King of rims and tyres
If Kota kemuning u ask for weng heng and Oscar tyres.
Which are rm 10 to rm 20 cheaper per donut but u need to do balancing alignment outside. (which is why sometimes to save up on the queue and the hassle klang itself la. It's just rm 60 to rm 80 more but incl balancing alignment)
Alignment my min criteria is hawkeye hunter alignment system. Which I am still finding in klang (I not from klang Valley) bec no one replied to my thread here on the fast n furious section
U can use your stock tyres until almost botak if want to save cost. But once botak or little thread left no more trade in value.
Trade in usually rm 300 ish
4. Myvi SC don't allow u to bring ur stuff for them to do. They have fantasy their oil is best. And that semi synthetic perodua oil best for myvi. That's alot of bs there.
Of course use fully synthetic branded.
U want to prolong engine life, rev smoothly kan? Travel short distance penang Island then semi synthetic but klang valley
No no.
Currently I am using a brand called ROWE. German brand use in BMW cars. Fully imported oil. I have tried Total 9000 quartz. Equally as good. They cost me about rm 160 to 180 incl labor per change.
There is better (pricier) of course: millers oil or torco or HKS
But i checked all the oil specs all sama je. Just their pricing is another tier at rm 200 above.
Regular fully synthetic include castrol magnatec, Mobil, liquimoly. Whatever it is all of these better than perodua la.
U can service in perodua no prob since u thinking of resale.
Just don't do the engine oil service
If brake overhaul in future u also don't let them do brake fluid. They use capalang dot3 oil.... Shit man..
