Need to aim for better FC. next service going to try 10w-40 instead of 15w-50 oil.

done my 1st service after a week getting the car. my next service would be at 6.3k. awaiting for it. the oil used rite now is syntium 800.

How much is petronas 10w-40 oils? i look into the webby its rm175??? that's expensive~~

ya always did a check on the air pressure~ after 1st service i think my car improved by 100km. previously full tank around <250km. now full tank around 350km. not bad~ but 10w-40 oils make a difference? the oil is rm100 more compared to syntium 800 im using now~

once or twice a week~
how much would it be for 10w-40 oils? Wonder if they let me bring over my own oil for service.

pump in 30 / 210.
Aww Petronas got no Semi Syn 10w-40. only 15w-50. Can use own oil when service ka?

ic~ wokey TQ. im using 15w-50 now, but as for tyre presure gonna try ur recommendation later. btw i've already change my rims and 30/200 is the recommended pressure from the tyre shop. shud i pump more den?

yea hahaha. EFI 15". taiwanese rims changed since 1st day i got the car. so far so good. hermmm ill head out and pump higher pressure later then. haha

owh ur fuel consumption is hell lot better than mine, i was thinking of trying v-power for my next tank. wonder would i get the extra mileage. haha

might be becoz of more to city drive too. have to observe the FC until it hits 6k becoz my next service. haha pumped to 32 front 31 back. hopefully there is improvement. but as far as i know, if the tyres pressure are high, handling wudnt be dat nice rite?

eh..i did my first service at 12XX some thing..so the next service is 52xx or 62xxkm?

cheeann, 20k service supposely cost how much? My housemate do 20k service kena 400+ on his gen2.

yea cheaan, did in sc. =.= overrated?

=x so chee ann, u did already 20k service right? how much u got charged? Care to list down what they charge u? hehe

went up wif cheean bro?

I wanna ask all BLM owners here, what's this baby FC for manual and auto?
is the auto 4 gear or 3 gear?
was considering blm or viva... thx

dunno...feel smoother...
cause previously stupid sc give me mach5 oil 20w50w
now change to shell 10w40w like better....

this is is fully synt so 10k change

if you dun mind mini cars i would suggest you to go for Proton Savvy. It's build does not look like the wira milon tin look. it sumhow solid i should say. comparebable to those vios or city in terms of metal. interior quality is so so only.

btw, if you need a big car, SAGA is your option.
if you need a car which can carry you from one place to another, just go for savvy.

My Auto BLM FC really bad ler at 0.27 cents per km (Rm2.30/liter). I visited 2 proton workshops and they say nothing can be done after the black oil has been changed. But I read from all the replies here something can be done? Which workshop did u guys go? I live in PJ.
