OMG! I Need RM10,000 for my 308T!!

I had just spent RM400+ on the 30,000th km service and that was nothing...

It has been estimated that for the next service @ 40,000th km [after 2yrs] I need around RM10,000 to keep the 308T running. Nothing wrong with my car actually but Believe it or not?

At 40,000th km the car needs...
1. Normal service ... RM400.oo+
2. Replacement of tyres, brake pads/disks, s/plugs, brake fluid, coolant, etc...... around RM3500.oo
3. Road_tax & Insurance .... around RM2000.oo
4. To pay saman e-koq .... RM2100.oo
5. 'Firmware update'... say, RM2000.oo+

Total RM10,000.oo++

Kenape... tak percayier?

    verm,
    Not remap, it's 3rd party firmware update la... ha.. haaa..

    Azhelmy,
    Actually I got an average of 3.5 saman e-koq per car - from 2 different cars since y2006. Mostly @70km/hr school zone between Raub to Bentung for driving around 90~100km/hr only.

    Tak patut betul. Where got school chidren there between midnite to dawn? Unfair, very unfair...

    So desu ka?
    Some ppl said the boost press will be to high for THP140 'air line system'.

    I was wrongly informed then....

    btw, it seems that everyone has some kinda problem with different ver. of the 'firmware'... ada betul ke Alan?

    Your car must be exceptional powerful now.... Can cucuk E90 325i ka? hee...heeee
