9yrs only 60k?

May 2018 car. 7 years old. 

Low mileage until I scrapped my Honda. Now with school runs, I've already done ~8k km in 3 months. 

So need to maintain better, so that I can keep the option of extending Coe in 2028.

Looks like you're buying Kia/Hyundai parts.

I highly recommend Song Yi Auto Parts, blk 637 Veerasamy Rd, Just provide your licence plate number and they can sell you the correct parts. Esp when it's time to change your ignition coil. They are authorized dealer, connected with Komoco.

Any recommended stores for merc wiper blades? Thanks 🙏

I got all my hyundai parts from Song Yi when I drove a Getz last time

I remember the original spark plugs are copper electrode plug, it was so cheap till I change it every 30k km

yeah

most will see you like a door to door salesman selling pirated Cat3 VCDs

got to endure that "what TF do you want?" look 😁

 

generally, walk in retail experience for parts/tools/hardware is lousy in Singapore (except ER-3682)

especially buying fasteners (aka screws/bolts/nuts) and o-rings

I understand their frustration, spending the same amount of time figuring out what you want, then you said you want to buy 2 pieces, while a commercial customer will buy 10,000 pieces 

if can buy online, please buy online, don't disturb them with your 1 piece order

All my screws and bolts from taobao now. Use to get from yong seng screws after the screw shop at kelantan lane closed down. Only bought from yong seng 2 times,. Second time give me attitude and ridiculous pricing. So no more. 
I rather buy 100s on taobao than go back to them.

Iridium spark plugs generally should be able to last more than 100k.
