Pug Gets New Wheels

after using more than 2 years, it's time to change the 2 front Goodyear tyres which has been rotated from the rear to the front from my last visit to the tyre shop...the vibration & shaking from the tyres was felt obviously on the steering wheel...plus the sound coming from the worn off tyres is more visible while on the road & the alignment & balancing was totally out...so, was a must to head to the tyre shop...

this time, went to a different shop instead of my usual preferred tyre shop...but it's also located around here...decided to go for Michelin as Ammar, a friend of mine recommended it...unfortunately, stock was out...so moved on to my 2nd choice which was Continental...after looking at the list of tyres available, decided to go for the ContiContactComfort CC5...RM188 per piece...this was my 1st time going for Continental tyres...from survey on the internet, the verdict was quite good...so my choices went like this - Michelin, Continental, Falken...other than that, it's a NO for me...so, a continental taste for my pug...




after using it for a week, i would say that I was very satisfied with the performance and silence of the tyre...would go for Continental again next time...more details on the tyre:

pug's minor surgery


i had to dig further to find out what was the petrol smell from my pug b4 raya and fortunately came across to bug206.blogspot.com & my206xr.blogspot.com and found the root cause of my pug's problem...there was a problem with my pug's fuel pump and it seems to be a common problem for 206s...my206xr.blogspot.com was like a wikipedia for 206...any 206 owners out there can refer to this blog if u come accross any problem with ur pug 206....back to my problem, after work at about 8.30 am, i head directly to Geotauto to check out my fuel pump problem...arriving there, the SA went to check my pug and verified that it was the fuel pump problem and the fuel is already like a puddle underneath the back seat!!....unfortunately & as expected, Geotauto did not have the fuel pump stock and without having any other choice, had to head to the Naza service center at Batu 3 as Bluebox Glenmarie no longer service or do warranty claims for 206...headed first to the Bluebox Glenmarie to get the map on how to get to the Naza Service Center coz i know i wouldn't be able to solely search the service center based only on address :P ....reached Naza Service Center around 10 o'clock and waited for my turn...explained to the SA that i need to make a warranty claim for the fuel pump....the service center wasn't that bad at all....there were couches, tv with astro (managed to watch CSI), PCs with internet connection and there's also wifi....oh, not to forget drinks dispenser machine but no point as it was ramadhan....there were a few other pug owners over there who sent their pugs for servicing....so, waiting for a while is expected....and at 2.30 pm, my pug was as good as new and redy to be driven off....4 hours of waiting, pheeeww....

my pug's clinic visit


it's time for my pug's 30k servicing...and this time i decided to go to another workshop instead of my 2 previous visit at the juta autowheels puchong...geot auto pj that is...it's not that i'm not satisfied with juta auto wheels but it's just so-so and geot auto seems to have positive feedbacks...so, geot auto we go....
arrived at geot auto approximately 10:30 am...went to the reception,passed the key & reported what else needs to be fixed...the person at the reception was friendly and was attentive(2 thumbs up)...guess my future visits will be geot auto as they even do major servicing, over haul & even warranty claim...have i mention that they carry Total lubricant?...after that off to the customer waiting lounge....hey, they have wifi!...that's all i need... :) ...however, after that i went to look at my pug...coolant topped up, engine oil changed and now using Total lubricant(oh yeahh) & my boot light is now working!....then, final check of my pug using their laptop thingy...
after about 2 hours of waiting, my pug is all set to go...oh ya, they even washed my pug after the service (2 thumbs up again here)...saves me 10 ringgit to send for washing... :p
overall, i was very satisfied with the service of my pug...definitely will make a return visit...
