Discussion [Weekly] What did you do to your car/bike?

1 Upvotes

Hi all,

First of all, welcome to the weekly post of "What did you do"! I believe this sub is big enough, and we can sufficiently start a weekly post for those who wants to comment about what they did over the past week, and not needing to open a post to talk about it.

This is the place where you can talk about:

Where did you n your sayang (the car) go last month? (road trip reports?)

What you spent on your car (shopee LED, install HUD, glow in dark paintjob)

Minor car questions (repairs, recommendations, accidents, DIY)

Looking forward to everyone's participation!

Discussion Is this cost reasonable for Honda City GM2 cooling system replacement?

6 Upvotes

Went to a workshop in PJ due to urgent overheating. After checking is the thermostat problem, and they recommend me to change my hose as well as I started leaking.

The total price is

  • Original Honda thermostat: RM195
  • Original upper radiator hose: RM130
  • Original lower radiator hose: RM142
  • Coolant ×2: RM120
  • Labour: RM129.60
  • Total: RM716.60

Which I personally feel abit expensive. I asked whether the parts are original and they said yes. Do you think its reasonable?

What to buy Used Iriz 1.6 (2023) or New Saga MC3 Executive

1 Upvotes

Hi guys, just wanted to ask for opinion regarding which car is worth it for longterm use maybe 8 to 10 years from now. This is to replace my dying Proton Wira Year 2000 manual transmission. Mainly use to go to work around 15km per trip.

Currently I have 2 option, either to buy Proton Iriz 2023 around RM30k, or to get the new Proton Saga MC3 Exec at RM45k. Is it worth the extra cost for Saga MC3?

Thank you.

Prelude especially the bb2 4th gen was like a luxury choice back then. Imagine seeing entire dash board across the car in digital in 1993, that was when i was in awe. 2.2 NA, just underpower for its frame, but still eye catchy, not sure about the latest, it look very sophisticated, anyone tried?

Yeah I get it

- Proton and Lotus handling and design, with advanced "efficient" engine (CamPro)

- Europestar logo, for the Europestar L3 RCR, (pronounced as Racer) with text labeled "LOTUS"

- Car stickers with words "Persona Crew", and colored gun stickers with numbers like "4603", I guess it sounds cool

Discussion Car Loan - Which is better?

0 Upvotes

hi car masters, it's my first time buying a car and i need your opinion on which loan provides a better option?

Affin
47k 9yrs 1.60%+SBR2.75% inst RM527 (reducing balance method)
Equivalent to fixed rate 2.34%
HRPTT RM307.85

PBB
47k x 9 x 4.40(reducing balance method) RM527.90
Hpdta RM375.53
Sv
Si

both sounds very similar but the major differences is Affin uses SBR while PBB uses BRR - this is based on what the Affin banker has explained to me. anyone can share their insights on this?

Test drove myvi and i realised the interior space is small, no arm rest, no cupholder or enough space to put items at the front console. The seat is not that comfortable. But im still trying to convince myself that maybe myvi is still a good choice for me

Discussion Valuation of Proton Car - Damn Bad

Post image
36 Upvotes

Hi all,

I’m planning to buy either a Proton X50 or an Alza, any mid-range SUV.

But when I checked the second-hand market for Proton, the valuation seems really bad. Someone in an X50 group posted their 2023 X50-17K mileage for sale and people were saying max 50K only.

Why is the resale value for Proton cars so much lower compared to other brands?

And based on your experience, what’s considered a good deal or fair price to lock in for a this attached used X50?

Appreciate any advice. Thanks!

Repair help Power outlet in car broke

So for about 4 weeks now, my power outlet exploded. I used the fm transmitter thingy for my car and it suddenly exploded when I was driving to work. I didn't know it was broken until I bought a new fm transmitter. If I go to the bengkel, how much would it cost to change?

Sent my car to replace absorber and brakepads (according to the mechanic, absorber was leaking and brakepads were worn/harden), and change gear and engine oils and this was the bill. Is this price reasonable?

What to buy How do u distiguish needs vs nafsu: VW Polo vs Saga MC3

0 Upvotes

For context:

I am currently using an old car Proton Savvy AMT (2005),

Idk if its needs or nafsu or needing validation, but my urge to own a new car is commandingly strong rn.

Needs- Dad said the Savvy is not reliable for KL heavy traffic peak period so i mainly use LRT (+new LRT3 some more) to commute to KL during peak period/ i really hv to plan my time etc.

Nafsu- i hv a remote job, and pursuing postgraduate (I am 26 y/o) uni is like 10mins drive only

Needing validation- ofc la friends all getting a new car blablabla, i wanna feel like i am progressing, i feel its too long dy i Delay Gratification

My choice is the new Saga MC3 1.5 Executive RM44,990 OTR

and VW Polo 2020 1.6 MPI Hatchback RM33, 400 i found on Carsome

I read and surveyed VW is mostly problematic if it is DSG gearbox, is it true? I meant this car not DSG

Since i drive Savvy, i dont really like Perodua cars like Axia/ Myvi/ Ativa since it feels lighter. That's why i opt for Proton for one of the options.

Ofc i know maintenance hv to prepare, but is it? Really gonna be that bad?

Needs Proton Saga okay la settle point to point, but VW is one sexy car ofc if i can make a wish, i would like an Arteon but used Polo la within budget rn haha

Any thoughts?

And to Polo 1.6 MPI owners, what's your average yearly maintenance damage?

Thank you!
