how to flush the radiator? since there are no cap to access it.

16km/L on stop & go traffic is very good already.


Hmmm sediments . I'm not sure about Savvy coolant spec, but I know Toyota Super Coolant (RM18/Litre) with 50-50 mixture of clean water are quite good - could last very long without sediments. Maybe could get few bottles and use it? If it works, good for the engine though.

AFAIK, I've tried other brands, some are "green", some are "white"... but after few days, they all become brown with sediments. This Toyota one maintain as new as 1st use (red color) even after a year.

uik u want me to do a test? a real test? then who gonna sponsor me i never treat my savvy softly cos my right foot quite evil in the highway . but since my boss delay my salary for last month (still havent got until today ) then i need to jimat the car petrol and was suprising that savvy really can save that much! as what i stated earlier, i can get RM0.12 per km or 22.5km per liter (2.70/0.12)


this week i wanna send my car for 40k service. this is my 1st time i service my savvy (previously it's my dad's. just handover to me swap with my kembara dvvt ) i hope that u guys can give me some advice and suggestion like what is the best engine oil, what things need to be checked etc etc.

thx in advance

drive as usual lar.. just no need purposely go test for 100km. just maybe 2 days go pump

Who wants 2nd hand sale Savvy AMT 2005, RM26k negotiable. PM me. Friend's cousin desperately want to sell but no idea who wants it?
No longer want to sell. As 2nd hand price Savvy AMT too low. Sorry.

ugh guys, im in the midst of buying a savvy H-line 2007 model right now.

but i cant choose whether to pick energy orange or genetic silver. im ok with both colors.

energy orange looks refreshing, while genetic silver, when put into 14"/15" gold-coloured replica impul rims will look abit like impul latio sport

Done my 1000km service at PESC Cheras yesterday.

Petronas Syntium 800 10W/30 - 3 litres RM53.00
Petronas Syntium 800 !0W/30 - 1 litre RM21.00
Oil Filter RM12.27
Drain Plug Sealing Ring RM 1.04

Total RM87.31

With free labour and car wash/vacuum. Quite cheap and good.
Only snag is I need to wait 2.5 hours for them to complete.

its up to u, but i would go for the energy orange.. then u can save money, dun need to buy new rims.. use dat money to pay for petrol.. haha..

i heard about merdeka month promotion for proton. probably savvy will be included in this. is this true?

if it is, then i think i need to halt buying the savvy 1st lah.

Remove the upper hose on the right top of the radiator and the bottom hose on the left. Hose down from the top of the radiator and do reverse flush from bottom. It's very hard to remove the hose clamp spring clip with a normal plier (you need to use a special locking plier), change it to screw hose clamp, easier to remove with a screwdriver. If you're adventurous or have serious problem with sediment, remove all the hoses you can find, like the one on the thermostat housing beside the engine and clean the hoses. After that you can refill and reflush using flushing formula or distilled water repeatly ...then only finally add coolant mixture.

Added on July 4, 2008, 10:22 amHOAT coolant is pretty expensive, that toyota coolant is cheap for it's price. Caltex Long Life is RM16.50 per 500ml, sold in Jusco coolant made by a local company Maximilin is around RM32 for 1.2L (more expensive yellow type one). Use only distilled water - tap water could cause heavy sediment in long term.

Added on July 4, 2008, 10:25 amI would say Amsoil ATM 10w/30 PAO based fully synthetic oil, best oil for savvy much better than Mobil 1. Or you can go for their top of the range Amsoil SSO.

40k - service
ASk them to check/clean the spark plugs before changing them

i think he's talking about discounts, not performance improvements.

tod MME version
sory cloud...

I tried the yellow (like highlighter yellow) type one before, turns brown quite fast. HOAT never heard before. Toyota coolant is expensive when buy in accessory shop (around RM38), where you can get it at RM18 through genuine parts Toyota dealer. No idea whether Toyota one's could use in Savvy.

Bought the MaxSilin green coolant, looks really bright like fluorescent green with almost 40% concentration. can change easily if it's no good.
