[coolbluepica]

Which company and what application was this again?

 

 

480 per tank is... not the full 50l but about 45 right? (assuming you top up once fuel remaining is about 5l)

CS-2 Titanium.

hi all,

 

my K3 now in 20 months now...

 

I notice that my k3 fuel consumption deteriorating now ... especially since the last 30K services at Kia.

 

on the meter, use to be 8.6l/100km.... now around10.3l/100km...

 

is there something wrong? Anyway, some route changes (additional) from my usual one... more HDB areas.. could that be one of the reasons?

 

By the way, tires, battery, wiper all need to change soon since it is coming to 2 years...

My experience.

 

Korean car fc deteriorate quite quickly.

 

When it's new. U can get amazing fc

 

But as time passes... FC of cars like altis will shine.

Just impressed by the effects of PPS after one month, still good and glossy and good hydrophobic

 

How is your washing? Just wash with normal car shampoo and dry? Got add wax?

After PPS, dirt tends to stick less and car not so dirty. Only washed once a week at CS-2 for $15. Lazy to wash myself. But if self wash will be quite easy though due to its hydrophobic. I was told that PPS cannot come to contact with wax. It will deteriorate the coating. So no need to wax. The shine always come back after wash.

Will C&C void our warranty by installing ICE?

They won't. It's ok. Cos just take out and plug in. Unless you do extensive re-wiring.

If wax can deteriorate the coating, then the coating is not of good quality. Mad detailer, the resident detailing guru, will agree with this

When will be a good time to go CS2 to wash? Long queue?

Best to go after 5pm. For me once I went at 3:30pm Long queue.

It's not necessary to wax a PPS. It's 2 different things. PPS bonds to the paint surface but wax only lays on top without bonding. If u want to wax your car then not suitable to do PPS.

I only used car shampoo and micro fibre cloth to rub. And it came off. After that I don't allow pump attendant to pump for me as they always drip onto my paintwork.
