i just only complain bout the unpleasent sound from engine bay that only occur at 1800RPM... the sound is like a something hitting another thing which is quite strange so today i decided to escalate to them and get it fixed...
so wat they manage to found out is the sound is actually inside the front bumper from the bar steel (refer to pic)
the purpose of the bar steel is to prevent serious damage to the car body during accident and maintain the body structure, or other way is to reduce the minimal impact to the car body...
the bar steel is only screwed to the car body on its end
but there is a tiny gap between the bar steel and the body so when i rev the car at 1800RPM the car body seems to vibrate and hit the bar steel and produce some rough sound that is very uncomfortable even when u sitting inside the car...
so the unscrew the bar steel and notice the rusty portion inside...
and they stick some thick sticker and screw back then the sounds gone...

other than that they have tea break at 10.00am for 30 minutes that they deserve but they came back at 10:45am, 15 minutes more...
during the break time many customers are waiting outside (refer to the pic)
and something i m very curious, the perdana engine...
2 camshaft per bank? that is 4 camshaft in the engine... no wonder it has a very bad fuel consumption...
and lastly some funny stuff...
overall the service that i receive didnt exceed my expectation but it does meet my expectation...
i will give 3.5 out of 5 stars, 1 deducted bcoz of the long break time and 0.5 bcoz i didnt receive warm welcome there, the staff all muka masam
