Then there must be a bug in the system to allow duplicate nickname...

That`s why the other `newunser` didn`t sound like you cos he was really
into accessories, installing speakers, amp etc etc [:-)]

crudemix,

we are always `alive` and hanging around the forum but the old Q&A was
almost impossible to reply back so most of the time i just keep quiet after
gave up trying to reply

hopefully this new thread part 2 will kick everyone into action again like
the good ol` days

not so much shopping spree, more like window-shopping and eating spree all
the goodies u cant find here in the dingy east coast.

what`s the big deal about the slimy lekor thingy ?
We cant wait to indulge in JCo donuts, Big Apple donuts, Baskin , Ikea
cafe, Kayu nasi kandar, Uncle Don
hartamas etc etc

hi LGX,

The thing is, I like the smell of fish and anything that has fish in itBig Smile
I don't really fancy meat, though I eat them, some thing like once in
2 to 3 weeks and sometimes non at all.

cheers.

Hi crudemix,

Have a safe journey and please remember, Don't Drive your angsa fast +
furious like you would in a sedan car. Coz if you do, the FC will
definately burn a BIG hole in your pocket. Drive at a leisurely pace and
try not to exceed 3K RPM or about 105 K/Hour and the FC will be
reasonable too.

cheers.

nowadays for outstation trips i fill up with V-Power, and I can really
vouch for the increased in torque and power, even my wife who is a
car-illiterate also noticed when she drives but not knowing i filled up
v-power, so she asked whether i have added anything to the engine :-)

auto gear upshifting also faster and smoother (much much less flat spots
and lag) , and cruising at a constant speed of 120kmh is a breeze , unlike
with normal fuel the unser seems to struggle even to maintain at 110kmh,
engine harshness sound also reduced.

To top all that, I think the autofoam also seriously helps in cruising
stability and reduction in NVH . Previously it was unconfortable to cruise
at 110 but now 120 is very much ok.

With V-power in terms of FC, it`s even better cos from my own observation;
previously normal fuel from Ktn-KL at 110kmh consumes slightly more than
half tank; with V-power same route but now constant 120 cruising uses same
amount of fuel with added driving pleasure :-)

Ok enough of advertisement, guess you guys got to experience it yourselves

forgot to add, i also installed, few weeks ago, Wurth soundproofing material on all 4 doors, which also contributed to the overall enhanced comfort as mentioned above...

so now the doors are heavier and closes with a solid continental thud Smile
and knocking on them feels like it's a 1inch thick metal ThumbUp

despite the added weight, no difference in terms of FC

I also experience the difficulty to reply. Glad somebody fixed the bug.
Unfortunately I didn't do the flush for the auto fluid somehow the
workshop did not mention it hope no harm done. Thanks guys for the
belting price so if the range is rm45 to rm60 then its ok.I remember to
stay away from the SC. But what would you recommend to do for SC work
that other places cannot do, maybe undercarriage check?

I am going to Penang today to cast my vote and holiday.Plan to drive at
night.This time I intend to review the FC to see if there is anything
wrong,last time was 11.5lit/100km.
