Boy, you should stingy about the oil....... After installing the additional oil cooler, you still oni need 4.5 liter to fill up...... 5 liters of trust oil is RM200....... That sounds ok, wasnt it......

having yam cha session with my friend, it remind and recalled me that i actually used shell 20W50 before, it was put in my car at the 1st or 2nd oil changed, i found that the car sound much more rough, and engine knocking sound. according to a mechanic it was due to the different oil mix when oil change, it will go away after a while.

not here to proof anything but would really learn more 1st cause i am thinking of going for 20W50 mineral shell.

so u guys out there having loud engine and engine knocking ? or its smooth like cream? how about the respond?

10W30 is definitely giving slower rev but very quiet engine, smooth.

Boy, engine knocking is not gonna occurs with simple oil change......... Engine knocking happens when there's insufficient AF, mainly too lean...... If engine knocking really happens to your car, better change the apex seal straight away.......

I strongly recommend Q8 Formula Advanced 10w40 semisyn, and Q8 formula Plus 15w40 Mineral also acceptable. All Q8 products are packed & imported from UK. checked : www.q8oils.co.uk

you can use SLD to remove if yours is MT or AT without immobiliser + DSC.
AT with DSC still can but immobiliser + DSC cannot.

Selling at RM2500 installation inclusive. Use for only 2 days so far. Still on my car. Taking it out next week.

New one is about RM3k.
Sorry guys, some wrong info. I took it out of the car yesterday, and it's not brand new. So selling for RM2k instead. First come first serve.

to know if the car got immobilizer i think you have to look at your dash warning signal icons, turn on your ignition switch, and see if there is a "KEY" signal icon, If yes then Yes you have immobilizer, if no then you dont. Clear? hehe
