Anyone switched insurer from AIG to xxx after car collection?

 

Stayed with AIG as missus found it was just as cheap as other insurers when second year came around.

[thebutcher]

Really meh? AIG gave me a ridiculous quote for my 2nd year. Told the service agent straight up "your quote is nonsense, i am going elsewhere".

Will you be going for pps? We can try if we will get better price for 2 cars.

Hi, any cerato owner can advice on their FC? My FC is pretty bad after the 1k servicing. I got 12+km/L before the 1k servicing. After the servicing I got only 10km/L. Is that normal? I’m driving on comfort mode and 50-50 on expressway. Thanks in advance

The '40' Shell Helix Ultra engine oil that C&C uses is too thick for a new car.

 

'30' rating will return better fuel  economy.

 

Here arises a problem - if you bring your own engine oil to C&C, there's a $30  corkage charge and this also effectively voids your warranty.

I see. Thanks for the info. Any other cerato owner encounter same issue as mine. I’m going back to service center to highlight this to them. On paper is 15km/L. 10Km/L is unacceptable

Anyone doing pps after collection. How much after the discount and how long does it take?

Me. $289 after 40% discount voucher given upon collection of car. With the 1k servicing and PPS it took almost a day

My info display showed 11km/L but I manually calculated is 10km/L

$289 is just the external body, headlamps n plastic right? Does it include the rims and the windscreen, Windows?

Only body, headlamps and plastic. The rest exclusive

Anyone finish the 1k servicing and encounter the same FC problem as me?

So what is your take on the pps? Worth to do it?

[jonaslow]

You have any reccomendation?

simply shine is my top of the list.

I think PPS is mainly to protect the paint. Can’t tell the difference in terms of the shine for a new car
