Cannot Pass Puspakom Test.

samuel_ng — Tue, 09 Jul 2019 22:04:11 +0800

Hi All, due to the latest enforcement of PSV license by the Ministry for all E-hailing drivers. Yesterday I took my Produa Myvi 2012 to one of the Puspakom cawangan to do the necessary testing and checking to apply PSV examination.

After the checking, I got 'Gagal' for Brake Test. The overall passing marks for "Brakes" category are 58marks and I only got 50marks, the main cause are due to both my Rear Brake has failed during the testing.

I was shocked as I only took my car for brakes service just a month ago and it failed during the Puspakom test. So, today I brought my car back to my usual workshop and check then we found there is no whatsoever "tear & wear" and "broken" to my whole Rear Brake System.

Since there is no kaput of my parts then the mechanics helps me clean inside the drum, check for leakage of pump, clean up brake pad and he also tighten my rear brake pad near to drum to make sure I can pass Puspakom @ 2nd time.

After the fix, I bring my car back to that Puspakom center for 2nd time testing with confident and I got 53marks which is "Gagal" again. I was really desperate and frustrated as I dont know what the hell is wrong with my Rear Brakes.

Can I know what can I do to make my car Rear Brakes like seriously very "makan" to pass the test?

Prompt feedback is much appreciated. Thank you.

Hi all, been noticing Garmin Smartwatches for past few months and wanted to buy one for myself but the price are always prettier than the watches itself.

Is there any store around northern region/KL that sells Garmin Watches with reasonable price? I'm looking for forerunner 945 or fenix 5 series.

Prompt feedback is much appreciated.
