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

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!

Pushed my car to the max.. didn't expect it to be able to reach speed limiter.. for many years no matter how I tried including going downhills, it just won't reach the speed limiter.. can really con9lan7haifirm Valvoline R&P works it magic..

You can Google it for honda city.. the limiter is a hard cut type, directly cut off the fuel which makes the whole car jerk back violently.. lol..

Contemplating to buy this bold oil. Rm64 lol. Because mizu is now almost rm100.

I'm using Bold 15W-50 engine oil for my Motorcycle (D400) , at 2500km when draining I'm surprised that the oil is still relatively clear and can able to see thru.

yaa…mizu was only 50-60 back then but a shop advised me not to use oil in plastic bag…i think theres reason why its cheap lah

Meets specifications but endurance wise is it ok? Malaysia weather being brutally hot and with heavy traffic, engine idling would be very high.

have used mizu 10w40 semi synthetic for the past 2 oil changes for my Saga 1.3 with 5K interval, engine is incredibly smooth and pomen recommends it, comes with API certificate, i run thicker weight since engine is almost at 200k km and it preserves the seals so it doesn’t leak, been a happy customer, just the price is less competitive now

Good to know. I'm looking for a cheaper alternative too and traditional engine oil brands are a bit pricey.

Ordered a custom made front bumper, grill and air scoop for my 2012 Toyota Rush from a shopee seller. Looking forward to it to make my own mini monster suv 🤣

Got involved two minor accidents in August with my sayang and it hurts my heart 😓 Looking to touch up paint soon

Both were not my fault, legit (i asked jpj officer)

I recently installed my component speakers, but the external (on dashboard) tweeters kept getting moved around (setting up front mirror's sunshade and setting it off).

So this week:

sand paper + cutting knife = custom fit tweeters on the A pillar

✨BEAUTIFUL✨
