first engine oil doesn't affect any performance lost lo ...... the diff on the quality lo but not like u say gettting weaker n weaker ..... gear oil change on every 30K km ..... spark plugs is one of the factor ...... does it jerk on every gear change ?..... tuning wise i dunno lo ..... didn`t bring my dad waja go tuning b4 ....... never had this problem using Q8 onli ...... sometime i have to say this ..... buy proton car is talking bout luck ...... got luck car no problem no luck your car is like hell .....

i jes change my plugs..i m thinking that s the plug problem..it s better a bit now but still weak though..the shop mechanics try to cheat me..he check all my stuffs like air filter, engine oil, timing belt.....do u think air filter will cause my car to be weaker..i dun think so..i wont go that shop again..well, at least my car s a bit better..my car din jerk evrytime change gear..everything s ok..i think must be the transmission oil..it s bout time d the mileage..left around 3k then need to change d..if i continue driving then will it be ok r??
