Edlois — Thu, 29 Feb 2024 13:18:17 +0800

Guys i have a problem there.

i was selling my car with a private buyer.

here are the steps that i had already done.

1. Nego
2. getting downpayment
3. puspakom b5 inspection
4. go bank settled the loan

okay now here is the problem.

i know that transferring the ownership requires me to have something called E-batal. But then after i settled my loan at the counter. No release letter nothing.
i saw my loan account already gone.

then i got mixed answer from my friend like. you need to go your main branch to get E-batal and release letter.
Some says E-batal the bank will do automatically one nowsaday.

i called bank. they can't give me a proper answer on this one.

WHAT IS E-BATAL ?????!!! A PIECE OF PAPER ?

Then now i have insurance on my car. should i cancel it before transfer ownership or after ownership ?
i have another car on over already. can i just like shift my insurance ? or cancel first ?

SORRY GUYS. im fustrated already

i want to say thank you first

eSIM For iPhone.

Its been long since Maxis have eSIM available. but only for Huawei watch users

i don't understand why Maxis wont want to produce more eSIM for user to change. Well its a QR code with based on a set of configuration that allow the phone to store carrier info right. i don't think its that hard for them to produce a card with QR code vs a Card with precut physical sim.

Anyway, anyone who already using eSIM ? those who trick maxis for supplying eSIM for huawei watch Joking.....

I'm using two phone now, and its a problem for separate number. i wish i could get eSIM from maxis then insert my other number with physical sim

Noisy vios engine and exhaust noise help !

Edlois — Thu, 22 Dec 2016 02:23:52 +0800

My car has very loud exhaust noise I think it's a bad muffler because I check with the Center box which is the resonator and the catalytic converter is fine. Now I need a silent muffler to make my whole exhaust system sound more refine and subtle to drive

Accelerating between 1-2.5k rpm unbearable

Vios 2011 ncp93 2nd facelifted everything is stock btw

Budget 300rm for muffler change

A good low noise muffler will be delightful to drive right guys ?

Repainting price

Edlois — Sat, 23 Apr 2016 16:57:22 +0800

Today I come across a automotive paint shop. I have a motorist bump into my car bumper which let to broken clip at the left side of the bumper when I was in Melaka. The shop quote me RM 300 for Vios original bumper and RM 200 for Nippon Nax 2K repaint. Total Rm 500*

It's it worth the price. For my point of view it kinda cheap, my main concern is that they are scamming. Advice thx very much.

Quiet tyre

Edlois — Fri, 26 Feb 2016 21:51:54 +0800

Hi guys would like you guys to teach and suggest some of the tyre choice out there. What I want is a quiet tyres budget is around RM200+ per tyre.

Here is my God car
2011 Vios 2nd facelift E grade
175/65 R14
Currently using
Front falken Ziex bla bla bla
Rear Goodyear NCT eagle

Problem: I notice the tyre noise is much more noisier then my engine. Driving at Highway is very unpleasant to drive. The falken is changed after bump into a pot hole and the tire is burst. Rim was still good. But I know choosing falken was a bad idea now

I heard that some tyre out there was much more quiet and cheap too
I heard my friend said Bridgestons Ecopia was nice
And my mom car was wearing a CC5 same car. It was quiet amazing experience much more quiet then mine. Also I heard that Yokohama had some good tyres too

I'm new to tyre I always thinks that popular brand like Michelin, Goodyear was good quality tyres hahaha. Honestly I have no idea
