Fix your brakes and take out the tinting film.

Thanks for ur quick advice. But for the tinting, is it really must remove totally? Or can replace with a tinting that is compliant with puspakom? And then for the brake, which brake specifically need to be fixed?
Thanks again..😅

Thanks.. Will change a new brake pad, lazada got sell any cheap but good quality brake pad? I scared Perodua cut my throat 🤣

For the tint, i suppose F means front and R means rear. Which one that failed? Or both also failed? 😱 The 4 side windows tint not affecting right? 🤔

Take out first. After pass the test then only out it back.

Seems like a good idea.. How much money will it cost to do it once every year?

by looking at the reading, i was guessing FW ( Front Windscreen ) 43% light go through, means 57% dark.

as for as i know front windscreen should be more than 70% light go through, which means less than 30% dark.

brake pad not expensive for Axia, get a good 1 will do

have service brake anot

change brake oil flushing

rear brake shoe hardly change, but who know, go get a check
*
I guess i just need to change a new front windscreen tint to 70% light go through then can get a pass on it?
As for the brake, what is row 'A2', column 'I' means? I see the number is only 2, should go higher right? The passing mark OE must be at least 58? That's what the puspakom guy told me. I just need 6 more marks to achieve that right? 🤔

Must remove front windscreen tint for Puspakom inspection. Even if you fix a "compliance" tint, the result will 99% still fail as the bare windscreen itself already got some % reduction.
*
When I did the tinting from the shop, it was a 70% VLT film, so i think u r right about the % reduction itself that make it lower than 70%, guess i'll get an 85% VLT tint for my windscreen.

from the numbers being indicated
your brake isn't grippy enough

and your front windscreen's tint failed
u know it's a big fail?
because your front windscreen is darker than your front side window
your front windscreen has to be the clearest of all the glass on your car
if your front windscreen has 43% VLT, i wonder how are u looking out of?...isn't it hard to see? laugh.gif

I have been using the tint film for my windscreen for more than 3 years already, no problem looking outside, even short sighted old uncle can still see clearly outside from inside.
I think it is because their device checking isn't reading accurately during the inspection, I did another test on my own after that on the front windscreen, the VLT is about 61% compared to PUSPAKOM test (but still below 70%, so yeah..).

why you so desperately to install a new tint and get inspected?

just remove the existing tint and go for inspection, and after pass, reinstall whatever tint you want
*
If really want to tint, have to follow puspakom guideline VLT, if not every year you need to check puspakom and remove tint every year.
If i install new tint as soon as possible and manage to pass puspakom, at least my new tint can stay up to my car's lifetime.
No point to reinstall new tint after pass and remove it the following year.

Anyway, I've removed my front windscreen tint, the rest of the 5 tints remain in tact, went to Perodua, they help me serviced my brake. If still not pass really speechless already.. Tomoro morning i will go back to the same branch and redo the inspection again, fingers crossed..

Finally i passed the test! Imagine without any tint at all on the front windscreen also 79% VLT!!? Wth?
And compared to the values before, my other window's tints values not same, i think it's really their device not accurate because i didn't do anything to my other 5 tints at all.

glass itself have certain VLT value already not include your tinted, so why take the risk ?

instead of tint it dark, why not choose those tinted that reflect more heat aka IRR >90%

what is your purpose of tint ?

maybe you should show them both results and query why there different so much ?

EDIT: I understand that the glass itself has certain value, but i doubt it is that low of a 79%. Ppl say it is usually +-10%, but this is 21%!! U kidding me??

Yes, i want to get those tint IRR > 90%, but not easy to get one with VLT high and good price. I think i kena cheated by the shop last time say my front windscreen tint is compliant with jpj. But having said that even without tint i still get 79% VLT, where can buy 91% or higher VLT front windscreen tint with high IRR?

I didn't think of asking them on the comparison of both previous and current results. Should have done that before i leave the place this morning.
