Haha, Hirev again, same as Tmn Fadason near Jinjang Utara. A lot of workshops are sponsored by Hirev nowadays. Most people start a small workshop business with not much experience and not enough $$ will look for Hirev. Next time be more careful when drive in to Hirev workshop, but not sure for Hirev motorbike workshop.

The other day I suddenly realised it was time to change my engine oil after I had done my banking at RHB Bandar Sri Damansara, I went to this shop behind RHB / Maybank called Boon Kea* with the Hi-Rev sponsored sign board. On the way back home, I realised something wrong with the car after the engine oil change (RM80. Afterwards realised very expensive for a re-cycled engine oil change, cheapo filter and labour). The car was not so powerful as before and saw some white smoke from the back from the car. I quickly went back to the shop but the shop insisted that they didn't do anything to my car apart from changing the engine oil. They pretended to check through the entire engine and said firmly that nothing wrong with the car and claimed that the car was a few years old already blah....blah...... It is normal to have white smoke otherwise I could send them the car for a few days in order to do the engine overhaul....blah ....blah.

I puzzled for a few days (also busy with work), I decided to send the car to another mechanic and only realised that the shop had removed a small hose (I think it was the oxygen intake hose) from the engine and thus the white smoke and lack of power. Later talking to my friend who stayed somewhere in Sri Damansara. He also kena once in a different way (water hose not tighten but the shop said radiator leaked and got to change a new one). He said this shop like to make you pay more. Even good parts also asked you to change this, change that and sell off your good parts to other car owners......BEWARE!!!!!!!!!

most of the shops do that when business are bad. best is to sit put there and see what they do to yr car. if it is a major job, send to someone u really know or to the respective brand svc ctr....more expensive but safer rather than spending more later to rectify problems.....better be safe.

There are many polluted or recycle engine oil in the market especially in klang valley...here are few tips you can find out the oil is recycle or not...

1. see through the whole process of oil changing...
2. beware of few brand in the market especially ( Shell, Castrol, Idemitsu, penzoil )
3. see it clearly that the engine oil you brought got white spot of not or blakc spot
4. put some on your finger, twis it and smell it. if got Bau Hangus...percentage of recycle oil is high
5. original engine oil is goldish colour not plain color beware.

normally once after u change your engine oil, you must feel that the car get lighter not heavier...
certain car produce noisy engine sounds...once the white smoke came out means your VALVE SEAL SPOIL already...
normally will cause more than RM 1000++ to overhaul your car... beware

once you find out the shop got problem, report it...coz if they continue to put the same engine oil into others car more victim eventually...jason
