What will you do and not do to your ride..?

[sonictheory]

not sure if this had been bring up before?

but i would like to know

what thing will you do to your ride? and what will you not do to your ride?...

for example...

u will not fetch more than 3 ppl in ur car... (avoid kena undercarriage of lowered car)
u will not rev your car to redline
u will warm up your every morning (get the engine oil hot?)
u will warm down your car after long drive (to maintain a good engine)
u will pull up your wiper everytime if park under sun (to avoid wiper spoil)
etc etc....

thru this maybe we can how others care of their car, then more knowledge will gain...


as for me,

i avoid every potholes as possible, even those uneven road (to avoid my rim dent, tyre burst, out of alignment)
i warm up my car every morning..but rarely warm down my car coz alwiz in rush, no time to wait
i will alwiz find the most side parking to park my car, to avoid my car got dent o scratch by stupid inconsiderate ppl
i will clean/wash my car whenever its dirty
i will wash off bird dropping immediately whenever i see it, coz it will cause permenent damage to our paint

anything else?..any odds excercise that you will do to your ride? share with everyone, so that every one aware of it...

coz thing like bird dropping, i sometime see a car with about 20 drops on their car and they still no bother to clean it.. somemore is quite new car...:shocked:

[si|verfish]

Not make it look like a plastic toy, with plastic pointy bits poking all over the place and no dumb stickers and no pointlessly loud exhaust and no ridiculously stupidly bassy sound system.

 

[sonictheory]

nieto, lol, actually i kinda rarely use horn, unless the car freaking eat my lane or din notice of my existence, or maybe something too over..but i canot flash, was on HID -_-"....

silverfish, agree man, loud exhaust with no go effect really make me laugh alwiz...and bass...thud thud thud* like dunno wat song..hear long of that kind of song, get heart attack also...

any any others?....wanna know how others take care of their car and pantang to their car....

anyway, i will alwiz avoid flooding place...

 

[Nieto]

ha ha, if audio show, show ride bass boom boom boom... can lah, while driving go boom boom boom... duh~ and i hate those loud exhaust without silencer with super slow spd... ha ha... and if got bonggol, i will senget my car to go through it~

 

[munpeng]

I won't park under trees or under anything that birds would rest on, they just love to shit on my car, diu.

I won't use dirty and unsmooth cloth to wipe/wash my car, because i hate swirl marks.

I won't add any useless bodykit or craps to make my car heavy. That's why planning on CF hood, hehe.

I will make sure the car has a nice layer or polish/wax, to protect the paintwork from sunlight, acid rain, stone chips and even bird shits.

Will make sure the car gets warmed up in the early morning. Coz Kancil ma.

 

[ken yeang]

I won't drive another proton....unless I won it in some "scratch and win" competition, then I probably sell it for another japanese car.......

[PAR14]

everytime i drive or in my car...i jus like to pull the lever that triggers the 'squirter' to squirt water onto my windscreen. dunno y. until now the whole windscreen gt watermarks d :( and everytime i pull handbrake that time i oways press the release button while pulling it up. just dont like the sound of 'trrrraaat'. afraid the teeth will break off like that nia.
