I complainted that before and guess what they did. They sprayed WD40 on the hinge. In another service, they applied some transparent paste to the hinge.

that why i rather to service my car by myself if within my capability... most of SC job quality is so so only...
i had a small rusty at car underneath, i solved it by myself by sanding the rusty place and touch up with paint...

so hows your hinge now ? still rusting ? I also realize that rain water would enter the door panel up to the part where there is a chrome plate on the floor. Everytime it rains i can see water at the chrome plate. Is water suppose to enter that area ? I assume so as the the rubber in blocks water from entering the car not the chrome plate area.
*

any water still able to enter the chrome plate area and door hinge area...
the rubber only blocked the water to enter into ur interior (plastic area) from chrome plate area...

manual or auto? if manual, we only can feel the pick up after 1500rpm++...

maybe also bcos the compressor kicked in due to hot weather and loss pickup...

what do you mean on time? the first 2 service i did it at p2.. then somewhere else.. im just thinking is the cost to fix the door back into allignment free?
*

u service only the engine parts right? engine nothing related with car body...
engine parts only have 1 year warranty and car body parts may have up to 4 year warranty (2+2 warranty)

if they check the car body for u, they may earn some labour cost from p2 as well with some documentation and ur signature... impossible they work for nothing...

today on my way back home, i found out got one shop near my house got eneos's name written one of the shop. laugh.gif maybe will go there check check the price and usually how much eneos engine oil cost? can we take the eneos oil and go to P2 service? laugh.gif
*

the spare part shop near my house selling eneos eco touring 5w-30 cost RM95...

beware the P2 SC will pour sand and salt into ur engine together with eneos... brows.gif
actually not tat difficult to DIY... at least can do slowly and ensure MOST of the used engine oil drained out... then only pour the fresh engine oil without mix too much with used engine oil... tongue.gif

QUOTE(vin_ann @ Feb 21 2008, 12:00 AM)
btw, how to identify the ORIGINAL of eneos oil???
*

i think no way to identify bah... if fake 1 may have lower quality packaging...
maybe can identify original by checking the printed manufacture date at the back&bottom of bottle...
and the bottom of bottle have emboss "ENEOS" words like the bottle cap...

if DIY will save some... saved RM55 + RM10 which can can change engine oil and radiator coolant by ourselves...
air filter get from spare part some instead, drain plug i dont think SC will change but they still quote us, spark plug RM50 can get platinum type, battery water RM2.3??? sweat.gif

for me i will invest more on engine oil and spark plug rather than pay labour charges to SC... tongue.gif

haizzz.. my myvi also got many sounds now with 18k mileage only. i hate the sound which especially come from the rear window. i don know the sound come from where. maybe from the window? i still under warranty right? cry.gif ask them to change?
*

usually sound from door plastic panel, rear seat and rear panel (between rear window and rear seat)
my sound sometime have, sometime dont have, depend on my car mood.... sweat.gif
but i dont mind much since there have a lot of "moveable hinge" behind there, sure will have some friction while car moving...

it is a stock one. how to describe ah.. erm.. when i go over a bump, there is a sound like ' tuk ' which is it seems like your tire hit the top of your front wheel. do you understand what i say? unsure.gif

the sound occured when ur car going up to bump or going down to bump?

QUOTE(radioactive @ Feb 22 2008, 11:44 AM)
but warranty no more izit.... diy oil change i oso know. 1.3 version even easier
*

in common sense should dont have warranty anymore...
but may depend which SC and talk nicely with them, they may do warranty also for part replacements, i think they will get the labour charges from p2 instead... if we dont warranty with them, so they wont earn labour charges in logical sense... but usually if no problem before 10000km, engine parts still can last until warranty end... if having problem on the beginning, problems difficult to solve later, bcos the problem source is unknown and may caused by very tiny problem... sweat.gif
