Buyer beware! Rampant car detailing scams wipe wallets clean, leaves cars dirty

Running in your new car, still relevant?

Running in (or breaking in) your new car is a standard practice that has been recommended by car manufacturers for the longest time. The task is simple – drive the car until the designated mileage set for the first service (anything from 1,000-2,000 km), but do not exceed 3,000-4,000 rpm to let all the mechanical bits ‘set in’. However, automotive technology have advanced tremendously in the automotive world, with manufacturers utilizing better quality materials for the mechanical bits, all in t

What to do if your AEB-equipped car has a broken windscreen?

The short answer is that the AEB hardware needs to be recalibrated, which can only be done at an authorized service centre (at the moment, unless there is an independent repairer here that has invested in the necessary tools). You can still have the windscreen replaced at the windscreen repairer of your choice, but after replacing the glass, you need to bring the car back to the authorized service centre to have the AEB camera recalibrated. Well, this is the unfortunate downside of insisting on

Be wary of hidden charges when buying a used car!

Buying a used car can net you quite a fair bit in savings, as depreciation is a painful reality for new car buyers. But ask anyone who has recently purchased a used car and the general consensus is the same – the listed price isn’t always the same as the price they paid. The main reason is very simple; used car dealers have a nasty habit of excluding hidden 'processing fees' from the listed price of their cars. As such, one can expect to pay an extra RM 4,000 to RM 5,000 more when buying from a
