There is a way out for u actually..but u must have a close friend who is in the used car market to help u. I started off with opc too...mthly $230...my friend helped me 're-financed' by using his company's name and paid off my outstanding loan to my bank+normal plate conversion fees to LTA. After which he applied for a loan with another bank @ 2.25% and I topped up cash of about $1k which includes his service charges. My new installment is $400 now...the problem is usually they dun provide this kind of service as they earn little and lots of paper work. So u must really know someone who willing to help u... hmm.. does the car changed hands to the company who paid off the outstanding loan? Meaning u trf the car ownership to the company who helped paid off the outstanding loan, then re-apply loan from bank to buy the car back. Like that means u transfer count 2. Which also means the car = 3 owners logically. When u wanna sell away the car, some car dealers might not want to take in unless u buy car from the dealers and even if u buy their car and trade in, the car is taken in at a low price.. frankly speaking, who will wanna buy a 3 owner used car? dun talk abt how old is the car. This method works if u can find the company to trust u n pay for u first, and u willing to accept the number of transfer counts under ur car. The ownership of the car will not change at all. All based on trust...thats why i said need close friend who willing to do...but very hard to run away one lah...cause the loan needed to be approved first then they will process the rest. Quite fool proof process.

Technically it's every 60K...u may encounter difficulty in crank start if the filter gets dirty and clogged...resulting in insufficient fuel pumped into combustion chamber. I did buy once from minghee but forgot how much was that...should be ard 50+. But i can remember harmony charged 60 for labour...zzzzz.....

Our engine can run on ron 92 petrol by manufacturer recommendation. But if u tune ur engine then u might need something better eg. ron 95 for more stable combustion. For everyday driving, 92 or 95 is sufficient unless u track. For my ride, I can feel the difference between 95 and 98. Nv tried 92 before. FC no difference between the 2 types.
Be it 92,95 or 98, no such thing as dirty unless u go msia...our fuel filter will do it's job to remove contaminants.

Bro, just by looking at this,you are making me change my current plugs to denso asap. Last check my current Brisk during 50k service is ok...haha.... Haha when I changed my plugs my mech also say it looked ok but if wanna change can do so. So I just change it to see if the problem can be solved. True enough my brisk plugs were the source of the problem. If no problem just stick to it first lor. For me is can use...just use first.

Side track a bit.. What is champion brand spark plugs? I've never heard of it. From Korea? Champion is OEM plugs manufacturer for most ride's stock plugs. Dunno which country it's from. I believe most of our KIA rides stock plugs are champion.

Just ask mechanic to take out the plugs and check. Cyberlex driving a Cerato V2 also got this issue, thereafter check and change plugs...ok already... Think you dun want to wait until the problem escalate then solve right. Btw, i encountered violent jerking, plugs broken. Mileage does not matters btw... Wah haha...u have good memory bro! He's rite...mileage does not matter as the plugs may fail prematurely due to QC issues. Denso iridium is good enough for me...after changing to denso my FC got better. Plugs costs 50% lesser than brisk. I'm using denso ixuh22i. Exactly same length as stock plugs. Brisk and ixuh22 are actually shorter...abt 0.4mm i think.

Well...useful or not, it comes down to personal experiences with it. My friend's ride batt kept failing every 8mths. Changed twice still the same. I brought him to install mega raizin and his batt lasted till now coming to 2 years. Same brand of batt during replacement. Anyone can explain? Or was it that he was so unlucky to buy 2 QC failed battery consecutively in a row?

Thats why we, consumers should do research and ask ard from end users before investing our hard earned money. Thats how forums come about for people to share and give feedback mah! The advertisement market had all along behaved in this manner. So end of the day is how they convince consumers into buying their product. Our choice to believe or not...

ya loh.... mine is like that.... damn noisy! >.< Wet tyres have better aqua planning and grip on wet roads. Usually their tyre threads are 'V' shaped to cut thru water and they are of softer compound...therefore noisier. Yah agreed...was on these type of tyres previously. Although noisy but very 'zai' in wet conditions...also wears out faster.

Hi, 215/45/17 is usually a standard spec for most 17 inch tyres. If u change to 215/55/17, there might be a slight inaccuracy in ur speedo reading cause overall the tyre is bigger. The tyre profile will affect ur handling. 'wet' tyres usually not quiet. So check the type of tyres before getting. Hi Bro, what does it mean "wet" tyres? Wet tyres have better aqua planning and grip on wet roads. Usually their tyre threads are 'V' shaped to cut thru water and they are of softer compound...therefore noisier.
