    Which PPS is good?

    Re: Which PPS is good? Hi 715, my current and previous cars have been done by 3mendouz shine. Personally, I think they do a thorough job and as far as the PPS itself is concerned, it does help in terms of protecting your car's paint from bird s**t for much longer than normal wax, but normal...

    When must we change the Engine Mounting?

    Re: When must we change the Engine Mounting? I changed my engine mounts and some tensioner thing when my 318i was about 2½ years' old. The engine was vibrating quite noticeably when the engine was idling. Must say that this is the fastest I've ever had to change engine mounts amongst all...

    Audio Sytem & Danish Aciustic

    Re: Audio Sytem & Danish Aciustic Hey jylam, I don't think I can comment on the SQ of the Audio System amp, since I've got no other benchmark. I still have my rear speakers - however, i got them changed from the stock speakers (Nokia !?) to Lanzar. Still sounds like crap, but since they're...

    Audio Sytem & Danish Aciustic

    Re: Audio Sytem & Danish Aciustic I don't claim to be an ICE expert but recently got my system upgraded at HG and am very happy with it. Consists of 6½ inch Eton components up front (required cutting a hole in the front door, but they've done lots of that, so no problem there) driven by a...

    Tires

    Re: Tires I haven't tried the Bridgestones - the tire wear rating was so low that I couldn't bring myself to consider them. Initial set of tires OEM on the car were Continental CSC. IMHO, the worst tire ever. I then switched from F1 GS-D3s to the Sport Maxx. The GS-D3s are decent tires...

    N42 Valvetronic Vibrations.....

    Re: N42 Valvetronic Vibrations..... My car was vibrating quite badly at "D" as well - brought it to J4C; they changed the engine mount and the "tensioner" (i have no idea what that is) - no more vibration :)

    Paint protection system?

    Re: Paint protection system? Hi, tried 3mendouz when I first got my car. It helps to protect your car body by coating it with a layer of teflon, so stuff like bird shit can be sprayed off easily. However, the shine is not as good as some "real" waxes and it certainly doesn't last 18 or even...

    Just got my car polished at Studio 12 using the Menzerna system. Car is mirror shiny now - seems better than when I got the car new. The price also seems pretty reasonable. Just wanted to let other forum members know - i'm not related to Studio 12 in any way.

    Loud rotation noise - Tyres, or wheel or any?

    Re: Loud rotation noise - Tyres, or wheel or any? Hi Macnoodle, are you sure the stock tyres are CSC2? Coz mine came with CSC and not CSC2. If it is CSC, apart from any possible issue with the wheel bearing, the CSCs are NOT a quiet tyre. In fact, they manage to combine relatively high...

    Recommended Restaurants and Restaurants To Avoid

    Re: Recommended Restaurants and Restaurants To Avoid The Cliff is at the former Beaufort Hotel in Sentosa. Setting very nice, food so-so, price and service is horrendous. Went for birthday dinner, host spent close to S$2000 and they refused to waive "cake-age" of S$20 for bringing our own...

    is it PML or me?! (dent / paint job suggestion)

    Re: is it PML or me?! (dent / paint job suggestion) Went to PML for a bare visible dent on my door and they told me the same thing. They need to respray the entire door and quoted hundreds of dollars. I thought it was absurd, so I went to PDR at Capitol Theatre carpark and got the dent...
