How to make my new vnt Hilux less Bumpy

moderate776 — Mon, 05 Nov 2012 14:48:51 +0800

I have a 2011 Vios and I like its general good handling and comfort. But because of some flooded area which forced me to divert or wait at petrol pump station, I ordered the new Hilux vnt auto.

My new Hilux come with standard 255/75R/15 tyres. I am happy so far but whenever I drive it, I can feel instantly a strong sense of bumpiness. So far no one have crashed their head on the roof.
But what I am asking here is what I can do to make my Hilux less bumpier and drive with good cornering grip?
Continental or Goodyear Asymetric or Pirelli or Yokohama or Michelin? Shock absorbers? I am willing to spend if it works.

I was also thinking of adding front bull bars. Is this legal?

Streamyx vs UniFi vs Maxis Dongle

moderate776 — Fri, 20 Jan 2012 08:32:40 +0800

I am a newbie in this thing.

I am currently on streamyx 110 ringgit per month plan.

I used to be on the 90 ringgit plan and can't see any difference at all when I you tube.

Lately, I received pamphlets to switch to Maxis dongle plans and to UniFI packages.

Since I you tube a lot at home with my PC connected to my LED tv, which package is a good consideration?

Thank you.

Searching for a really cold air condtioner - Help

moderate776 — Fri, 20 Jan 2012 08:09:42 +0800

I have a 6 months old LG 1 hp air conditioner ICE RH10 (purchased from Best Denki) in the room. It could never make my room cold unless i leave it to run 6 hours minimum to run at 18 degrees maximum fan speed.

I called LG Dream Service 180082282 5 times and they come out with excuses that all airconds are the same and my room is too big. I asked them to top up the gas and it felt cool but lasted about a week then back to awful cooling performance again.

Before I had a Toshiba Daisekai 1 hp for 5 years and it gets cold after half an hour of running at 18 degree maximum fan speed, then had to turn the temperature to 24 degree, otherwise too cold.
Unfortunately I had to replaced it after an air conditioner servicing man(Jason) fouled up the machine during his acid wash and cleaning. It develop noises also.

The room is about 15 ft by 10 ft. The piping are wall concealed to the compressor outside.

What could be wrong?

Should I go for another air conditioner brand?
If so, which model is known for really cold air conditioning?
