The fact that they don't even carry 0w20 oil shows how little they really care about proper servicing. Add not knowing what DRL is, using a test light on electricals instead of a multimeter, using a screwdriver to forcefully remove a relay, and not knowing the parts number equals you should never go back there again. Remember that when testing the DRL function, engine must be running, headlights/parklights should be off and handbrake dis-engaged. DRL relay PN is SU003-02439. If they still don't get what you are talking about with regards to the relay show them this: For the rear strut plugs show them this: |

@NIKDENG, appreciate your inputs would probably save my money for other upgrades or probably if i have extra, i could get those bars for the engine bay to look nice
thanks also for the pics, should be very helpful if ever i decide to have my DRL work in the future.. for now kasi ayoko ren talaga paganahin siya btw, where do you guys have your service kung hindi sa casa? kasi after my 1k kms service, i might go back to Autoplus since i have my Jazz service there ever since its first PMS.. they just suggested to me to bring it sa casa muna for the 1k kms service kaya thats what im doing |

@x3m_priv8, check out the thread of @Tye300, i know he had his tails tinted/filmed before changing to Tom's.. afaik, the tint/film fades daw.. i wanted to do that also since wala pako budget for the Tom's tails but since it fades, wag na lang siguro and save for the Tom's
here is his thread, he has a nice build too Tye300's 86 |

Those red taillights look good on your dark colored car. You cannot just replace the black plastic as it is part of the bumper. The other options I can think of aside from replacing the entire bumper would be: 1. Reheat the deformed portion until it goes back to its original shape, body fill and sand to perfect shape then paint the entire black portion with flat black plastic paint (or cover with carbon fiber vinyl). 2. Get the TRD Quad Tip diffuser garnish. The melted portion will be cut off to make way for the diffuser garnish. It should look good since you have aftermarket exhaust already with big tips. 3. Get aftermarket rear bumper overlay in carbon fiber. 4. Cut-off the entire black portion and replace with aftermarket ones like the one from the Rocket Bunny kit. |

@pcuerpo i asked my SA if i can bring my own oil ok nman daw, well u cant opt for the 5w30 that they have if u dont want to bring the oil, stated at the manual nman ok lng yun eh, just be sure to fill up w/ the 0w20 nxt fill
@NIKDENG i emailed my SA the pic of the relay and also the gromet, gave her also the part number so he can asked the service office, well the service officer called me and said they have to order the relay abroad and would take about 15 days to arrive, price for the relay is P1,150, about the rear shock mount plug their system still is not recognizing the part number, well il just ghetto duck tape for the mean time just to make sure the water doesnt sip through it in case i drive in the rain, sabi ko nga sa kanila eh the sound coming from outside i dont mind bcos i luv the sound of the engine(when i enter nga in tunnels i turn off the radio n roll the windows down n enjoy the sound) but what im more concerned about is the fumes and the water coming in, Well thanks sir for replying to my mababaw queries in the near future i hope queries will be more performance related mods hehe Anyone knows what the stock AFR of our engine is and how far can we stretch it? TIA |

Get good quality red tint and it will last for quite a while. I wrapped my previous Spyder taillights with red tint and its still like new after 9 months of use. Your other alternative is to have the stock lights painted and cleared red. Stivo does this service. What you are smelling on your new car is the cosmoline coating on the engine burning off. They coat the engine with this stuff to prevent rusting. It will usually disappear after 1000km of driving. |
