I have few questions here regarding the first 1000km service for Savvy AMT.
1. Normally what are the things done during first 1000km service?
2. What are the brands and types of engine oil and gearbox oil that are recommended?
3. Need to top up or change the AMT fluid? What about gearbox oil?
Thanks.

All new Savvy bought in 2008 comes with 5 years warranty? For all Lite, Medium-line and High-line?
Anyone bought their Savvy in this year 2008? Have you got your P&O policy showing that it covers the warranty for 5 years? Mind to share some info? Thanks.

turbo jet engine take off? u sure no one sneak in last night to install a jet engine? or when u start ur car, some motobike nearby who installed the fake jet engine sound just braked?
forgot urs is amt or manual liao.. anyway, when starting, do make sure the check engine process stopped before u crank the engine.
i think the amt system will charge up the pressure tank to half tank when u first open door (u will hear buzzing from engine) then fully charge as u turn key to AC. if u crack before it reaches full charge, maybe got leak or it got emergency blowoff.. dunno
ok boss. no more kang^2

hi there, how do we make sure the check engine process stopped before we start the engine? where to see that? thanks.

I went back to penang for CNY... can see alot of Savvy's there... i wonder do they play on the Balik Pulau mountain passes... It should be fun there...
Yesterday my dad was sitting in my Savvy, he was sitting behind and complain that the car is really not stable... I think it's the body roll.. hmm, wat do u guys think? Drive slower? or Antiroll bars? hehehe

lol, I still have almost 30k on my loan amount outstanding. So if I want to change my Savvy need to top up almost 10k to cover =_=;;
Anyway I'm a bit worried about my gearbox, it's starting to have a light "grinding" noise. It's not a very loud grinding but u can definitely hear something is not quite right about it sad.gif sigh the car is starting to fall apart, lol.

yeah man. very marfan. I hope proton dun blame it on my alarm system. I got a second alarm system installed cause i recently lost my car to thief.

it will be stupid of proton to blame my alarm system. How can a car not be permitted to have an alarm system to back up proton's own one (which is hopeless).

That is sad to hear that. sad.gif

Hope your car ok a.s.a.p.
