did u try to unscrew a tighten nut with ur bare hand? i never know any screw and nut can be untighten by hand... sweat.gif unless the nuts is not tighten yet... look like p2 not tighten the nut yet, i needed to tighten it with spanner so that not able to open by hand...
spanner easier to carry around what, i think the nut size for the rear wiper just size 8-10... the size almost like 15cm plastic ruler...
*
well.......glue the screw and nut is the only solution. In fact i nvr heard anyone (most from myvi forum & a few my friend) that had glue the rear wiper screw and nut had their rear wiper stolen. That is the proven fact.

Just wanna check with you all, last 2-3 weeks my car have this noise. Not sure what but each time i put from N to D, come out so annoying noise. Then when i step the gas then it gone. Same if i put from N to R. Same noise but only temporary. Only now is getting worst. Wonder why? Checked at enos. They say something wrong with the gearbox. Check P2, they say takde apo2. Jangan takut. Ini semua biasa sahaja. WTF! What kind of answer is that. Feel like beating that fellow. Any one know what the problemo ?

Go other SC and try to complain. Myvi do have Gearbox problem especially the newer batch from 2007 onwards...... smile.gif

like tat also can..  laugh.gif

erm.. which will be lighter?? PU or fiber?
*
Basically there is three type of bodykit material

1) ABS - More solid but expensive, hard to repair and heavy

2) PU - Less solid (rubber like), less expensive, easy to repair than ABS and lighter than ABS

3) Fiber - Cheapest, like biscuit (Hit a bit will crack), very easy to repair (Just refibre only) and the lightest bodykit material.

Fuel filter? I heard people say need to change after 3 years like that. It does not have any significant effects. So no worries. I was thinkin to go for K&N air filter. Price is quite amazingly expensive RM250.00 excluding oil cleaner. Dam freckling expensive. Wonder worth buying or not. Any side input on this matter?  notworthy.gif
*
RM250 is consider cheap lo. If u want some improve in ur engine performance and smooth engine then go for it. U wouldn't get wrong with K&N.

Last time i bought brakepads for both rear and front.  When i want to change, after inspecting the mechanic say don't need to change the rear one just change the front.  The rear last a bit longer than the front.  That time mileage at 35K.  Now 55K, i hear small screetching sound at rear tyre when reverse so i assume time to change rear brake pad.

So the aircond need to change around 60K.  Just add gas, clean aircon filter and check aircon coil right?
*
Anyway, the thing for ur rear drum is called Brake shoe and not brake pad.

For ur aircond.......yes....go for check up. Add gas and check aircon coil. Btw, MYvi don't have air con filter by default.

there is no the best bodykit.. all depends on ur taste..

best quality got la.. go for abs then..

rim ar.. got a lot ar.. go make survey 1st.. kedai potong also got nice and cheap wan..

go for lightest and best 15".. 16" also ok wan.. but 1 tank maybe only 400km max.. 15" 450-500km also can..

all depends on ur selection.. icon_rolleyes.gif

good luck.. do post some picture before and after.. flex.gif

Nope. It depend on how heavy ur right foot. It also depend on what rim u take. Some 15" rim is more heavy than a 16" rim. Choose wisely. I am using 16" rim FC still remain the same as stock rim.

Added on February 10, 2008, 3:16 pmbtw..why wanna change rims le..ur car still new le..i was planning to change too last time..but my fren told  me that the car rims is still new and everything is still new ..why wanna add bodykit..if add liao ..cross bumper need slow slow..so mafan ..sumore..i suggest you improve ur skill first ..before adding bumper and etc etc ..coz if new body kit Or rims calar..very sakit hati..like me..haihz..the new car calar edy ..the paint ..kena the roadside when parking ..coz that time parking skill and driving skill damm worst..now ok liao ^^
*
If u wanted to change rim since the day u got ur car.....it is better to change straight or a few days after got ur car. Trade in price is very high (rm600 - rm 700 in Klang) compare to those already run a year or so on. Add bodykit Cross bumper need slow slow??? Well as long u don't lowered ur car too lowered then everything will be fine. I had bodykit as well nvr hit bumper also and no need go slow slow on bumper.......every car will face calar problem la bro......unless ur car is always keep at home lo....... smile.gif

Warranty is no problem 1. Only ur free service will burn 1 time. I suggest u to go authorize service center and get ur car service ASAP. They might tutup mata 1. Anyway, new car is better to get service for first 1km also there many metal deposit in ur engine oil and gearbox oil.

buy oil filter and engine oil from spare parts shop, confirm will cheaper than p2 SC...

i dont think p2 SC wont happy accept "outside food"... bcos whatever they sell the sure earn a lot...
recently i just found out that SC not using original oil filter (black color casing) but charge me Rm13... vmad.gif
FYI, p2 semi engine oil worth RM52 in market but p2 SC selling Rm72++, somemore is not the latest spec...  yawn.gif

rather i get OEM original oil filter which cost Rm10 only and get my own engine oil to any mechanic shops... i think ur kelisa oil filter roughly that price also... previously i asked for toyota avanza oil filter (daihatsu brand) which can fit into myvi, but cost Rm20... sweat.gif

about engine oil change and ur kelisa warranty is over, u can try to DIY also... wink.gif

Care to share where u buy the P2 engine oil for RM52? I am looking for 1.......smile.gif
