OMG how come your iafm so easy spoil? always cuci inside engine ??

I went to 10k service last month, they asked me to come again at 15k. Inside the manual after 10k is 20k. So I called service centre KL. They confirmed no 15k after 10k. Only if 10k service still using mineral oil, have to come for 15k service. Hmm confirm I using shell helix 10-40 synthetic oil. every 10k....correct me if Im wrong...

my SC so good ah....out of stock also won't order...say it's impossible to spoil and say it never happen before...lol

last nite have chance to go drive on my aunt's civic...found out the only difference i can feel is
their soundproof nice and no small problem(this is why ppl bash proton, too many rattling sound)
but our advantage is i found out our car's air cond is extremely cold.....the civic aircond's temp turn to full also cannot beat our car when our car only turn to middle
and our sound system also better indeed
stability is same ....maybe becuz of the lotus's things inside our car
other than that....pretty much the same...only our car is noiser only

Added on March 29, 2009, 11:22 pmi got think also...i suspect is the water go in when it's rain
is it possible?...because there is nothing to hold water from going inside the IAFM

u dont need to go back at interval 3 months? it depends whichever come first right?

i see...i hope i can drive Evo X after 5 years i the "sharkhead"..if who kena tiong sure very sked of it..

im thinking of getting Peugeot 207 sedan enough for me, to replace my saga..keke..

ok..enough..back to BLM topic

anyone can get reasons why the IAFM so easy get spoiled?

damn, the sounds *tak tak tak* is getting louder now...

how to check? must open the bonnet only can hear?

my engine bay... and engine sound..

Ah nazri ur car IAFM also bunyi already...come come join the spoil IAFM club
I think the IAFM is not spoiled it's a design flaw, my sc told me there's a valve inside that is rattling but otherwise it's still working but the engine sound like lorry la.

i also got tak..tak sound...not so loud when engine cover is closed, very hard to get noticed...but more obvious when i open the engine cover...

thanks for allow me to join IAFM club...

Wow ~ Change for 3rd time edi??
The original IAFM is still sitting nicely in its space ~
Not sure whether it's still ok or mmm

Added on March 30, 2009, 8:32 amOh my goodness so loud @@ (I thought i heard dog bark sound at the background)
Meaning now with this sound, the iafm got problem?

Must go open the bonnet and listen to it ~
As far as i know, my BLM engine is quite loud too ~ (Was in the parking bay, and a guard just walk pass by oblivious that i was already in the car, when i started the engine, he "jumped off" as in "got shocked" - )

Added on March 30, 2009, 8:49 amThe 2nd article mentioned the technique for manual car (as in changing the gears)~
And the 1st article mentioned of different time durations for different session~

Wat about auto cars?

Initially, i thought breaking in means just press the car pedal really hard @@, not sure whether it had been done correctly mmm ~ Still digesting the article

Just go back to the quotation : What's The Best Way To Break-In A New Engine ??
The Short Answer: Run it Hard !

Just short burst of hard acceleration for 2-3minute.

Azuma-kun
when BLM came out, persona not yet come with IAFM, when persona comes with IAFM, BLM came for the 2nd batch already.hence the 2nd batch of BLM doesnt really have the IAFM issue, only the 1st batch.get me?
