Waa.. bobby, sure or not, cover everything.. im looking to buy GMR's Ace Warranty(the top one) for a used BMW 328i(2013).. i check with GMR sales person, a lot of things they dont cover leh.. like power steering , water pump, radiator etc etc...
@@BobbyAngmalaysia thanks for replying! The 'everything' that i mean is of course excluding wear and tear.. Because on 8:55 and 9:00 in this video you got mentioned that "for example, car got issue dont even know what happen, then they tell you something that you never heard off before, but its covered"... so i thought cover everything that is NOT wear and tear.. Another example is.. in this video, steering rack and column with motor is covered... when i check on their website and with them , they mentioned is not covered for used car.. im not sure if the Alphard in this video is used or recon car Anyway, if i buy a 328i , definitely i will buy GMR ACE warranty also.. at least most of the major items/ components is covered. By the way.. chill la..bobby.. 😊this is my 1st time hunting for used car ma... still a newbie.. but not yet "siao".. if i Siao already, i get siao car like BMW M5 e60 liao lo😂... i learnt a lot from your video about new cars , used cars, recon cars, and this 3rd party warranty... i dont know about GMR until you made this video😄
does the warning on how overheating could potentially void warranty in the booklet? 3-5 minutes is too short. those light never come everyday, so we might miss to see it. And the overheating might arise not on startup, but during on road. Nobody take a glimpse on meter every few seconds
hi Bobby I am getting a second hand car soon, first time getting a second hand car so I am not sure what to do. Can you make a video to inform what to do when you go to a second hand car dealer, eg. bring for full inspection first before purchase, must put any money for deposit before bringing for full inspection etc?
Thanks Bobby for such a good information, just got myself a 2015 vellfire recon. that's what I need. Btw.... is there any way to know their real mileage? I always heard car dealer can modify the mileage and sell it higher price. I can't believe 3 years car only went 20k km.
Hi sir. Just now im interesting to buy are car from carlist. But usually how the procedure? Im trying to avoid from false agent since im from sabah. If you don't mine any clues please?
Hi Bobby, can you do a video on the rationale to buy a second hand car, esp cars like proton and perodua, focusing on fresh grads n middle income households
hi bobby, thx for ur review. Can i ask u something? I plan to get a 2010 or 2011 used bmw X6... Do u know how much the regular maintenance will cost roughly ? Are the spare parts expensive ? What are the major problems of x 6 often to have ? thanks Bobby.
Hi Bobbby.. Im seriously on the look for a recond Merc E250 AMG, either 2014 or 2015 model. Probably to get one by mid March. Can you help me with contacts to get one under RM200k. Also, help me explain the pros and cons with that. Looking at using for about 3 years though. Hoping for an earnest reply.
So many in Mudah and Carlist .... Mercedes E Classes are the most reliable Mercs. Their primary engineering target is for Europe's taxi companies, so these buggers can run 100-150k mileage without issues at all.
It's a car that's in a less desirable condition (usually dirty and worn) that has been cleaned up and reupholster so it looks and feels like a new car.
Wonder any AP importers in Malaysia bring in new JDM cars coz so far only heard of recond cars. Worse still is some buyers thought recond cars = new cars, just that the year of manufacture is not current year but in fact they are paying substantial amt of money to buy a mij used car, recond = refurbished used car nia. Why can't the importers bring in new JDM cars to our market instead of recond?
Jeff Sia it is totally 2 different types of AP for new or used & the duty paid for the vehicle on new car AP is tremendously higher. Hence why we in Malaysia only get reconditioned imports
my exeprience with bmw. they said i shd service when msg pops up during warranty period. AFTER WARRANTY, they said i advise you to do oil change for every 5k because bla bla bla ... eventhought the msg shows 10k service.
Bobby Ang 35k is a like once a year to me.😱😱😱 or u travel alot? bmw said if we seldom drive that car then we shd change it more often ?? for instance, my mini is a weekend car. They will advise me to change oil again because i seldom drive when i send back for sth else. so bobby we shd change 5k or 35k? or change it when msg pops out?
+keeekeee engine oil to me 5k or 10k should be ok if you use the highest quality one (shell 0w30 ect) and gear oil change every 35k to protect it. Dont forget there's actually aircond compressor oil, axle oil etc... all those if change accordingly protects the car. Brake fluid, steering fluid, radiator coolant etc...
My review : cons = low ground clearance so speedbumps are hell, front seats are bucket; great for driver but not for passenger because of the huge side bolster prevents ur arms from reaching the armrests. black wood trim allows dust particles to be easily visible. brakes are not responsive nor powerful enough despite its big & ventilated dotted disk. AC will stay in recirculation mode for 25min only so u will smell the smoke from outdoor then have to press the button again. : pros = feature-packed, handling Things worth noting = test drive at high speed & check the tyres fitted; make sure not 'all season' because it has limitation with high speed so mine when i 1st collected was fitted with it so around 110km/h & above already shaking. Changed to 'summer' tyres then can go above 200km/h easily, TPMS make sure it shows the readout of ur tyre pressure. Mine had to claim back to the dealer because the sensors at the wheel has been removed when they put a new set of tyres, Rear tyre noise is very loud because its a very wide tyre, Check the door thunk when closing because u might feel that the thunk is so so & inconsistent between doors compared to UK spec which is assembled in germany hence a consistent & a super solid door thunk, If u come from FWD u will feel that this car is very rear-heavy at 1st its like ure towing something at the back but its completly natural for a RWD. The reason that i chose the japan spec because the interior condition is better & japanese people drive less because of their superb public transportations whereas UK people travel a lot because their point A to B is very far.
I will give you a task - browse ads in carlist and find recond car in Malaysia without counterfeited odometer readings. :) mission impossible.... Heck even dealers cannot provide proof, just use standard excuses like "we have no docs" "it was done in UK or JP before shipping to us" and it's just because stupid people buying KM and not car. How stupid you should be if you believe that 6 years old car from UK can have 50k KM (yes KM and not miles - even tough UK uses miles) on odometer...
it's fairly easy. when i bought my audi, i asked the dealer to give me a copy of the export papers where the mileage is stated. Then i use that to maintain my car instead as a guide. 98000km? Then you will know that you need to change the timing belts, water pumps, injectors, spark plugs, fuel pumps, service the air cond compressors, flush the engine, change the transmission oil, axle oil, brake fluids, steering fluids, air cond compressor oil, every conssumable items must be changed if you're nearing that mileage. Another thing i wanna say is attitude. Malaysians who shout out loud "all dealers are liars, change mileage yada yada" what to do? Consumers like you and me ARE POOR. We Malaysians are cheap skates, NO MONEY, WANT TO ACT RICH. Buy AP cars but pretend like big boss walk into Lexus demand this deman that. Honestly speaking, if so lansii walk into OEM showroom buy new la right? So i have to say this - the dealers are doing us CHEAP CONSUMERS a favor by giving us an option. No money? Buy used car, don't complain. If it weren't for them you think we have FJ Cruiser to buy? You think we have Audi S4 RS5 RS6 to gawk at on the streets? Malaysian consumers: New car - too expensive AP car - i dont trust Used car - condition i dont like DIUUUU go MRT la shut up and Grabcar. Sekian terima kasih.
Bobby Ang just paid for a conti recon from UK. Now the dealer said there’s no such export paper with mileage 😭 there’s only a handwritten one on the import papers.
How much they charge for standard sevice for german cars ? Mostly they will take advantage. Perhaps you sevice 3 times, will be higher than the premium you paid.(Panel workshop)
Bobby I'm a new car owner and may I know how often do I need to service my car? For example my next service is due for the first 5k mileage but I only done 2.5k mileage. However the initial service was done in March and now it's almost 6 months and I'm worry if I need to take the car for service even though it haven't reached the 5k mark yet.
agreed....the package is best for those who only drive their car and didn't know well about their car where they didn't practice the preventive maintenance....but,anyway it's the great video to acknowledge recons car owners to exactly know well about their car warranty....always follow your video Bobby..greats videos....=)
Azlan Muhamad I agree with him because I definitely see a lot of people around me who don't care about servicing or maintaining their cars. My mother is a good example. Back when she owned a Nissan teana, there were times when an engine warning light came but she never cared about it although me and my father warned her several times until one day, a gasket actually blew up. I also had a friend who destroyed his clutch disc in his wira and another who didn't bother to change his brake pads until he almost killed an old lady once.
Good video
we malaysians put petrol and drive that's really it. we don't check our tire pressure or all that stuff. ( generally !)
mexican n brazillian also same
One thing about Malaysia's 2nd car is almost all odometer had been adjusted (reduced mileage).
Thank you Bobby for releasing this video. Been waiting for you to release the new video (content-rich one) for so long already, this one really helps.
Ok
Thanks Bobby, this is most useful info to me.
thanks Bobby , always good stuff from you !

I'll just leave recon / 2nd hand vehicle and go for brand-new / 1st hand 🤔🤔
Thanks for this video coverage. Point noted at 17minute. Hope Malaysians take this to heart.
Good information Bobby... Thanks for your sharing...

Can you make a video to inform what to do when you go to a second hand car dealer, eg. bring for full inspection first before purchase, must put any money for deposit before bringing for full inspection etc?
Malaysia please introduce used car lemon laws and right. it helps.
very useful video
Nice one bobby! Very informative as always!
Do they accept cars that just ended their warranty?
i was expecting some prices for the warranty packages...
4800 is for original gear parts? What about OEM ?
good and interesting!! more video like this! how about goo kantei inspection?
how could we found that the recond car is under the GMR warranty?
Hi Bobby..my harrier steering leather cover is damaged(peeling off). Any idea where i can go to get it replaced pls?Tq
quick question, will modding the car void the warranty ? example changing intake/exhaust system?
digital mop yes sir..for new car
HI Bobby ,Now days new car doesnt have any water tank so how am I going to fill the water into water tank?
Thanks Bobby for such a good information, just got myself a 2015 vellfire recon. that's what I need. Btw.... is there any way to know their real mileage? I always heard car dealer can modify the mileage and sell it higher price. I can't believe 3 years car only went 20k km.

Dear Bob, how much is the normal routine for E200 W212 the panel workshop will charge?
Hi Bobby, can you do a video on the rationale to buy a second hand car, esp cars like proton and perodua, focusing on fresh grads n middle income households
There are alot of people who loves car but I wanted to know that how expensive car owner take care of their car?
thanks Bobby, mostly car review channel focusing on new car.. so only penel dealers that state on GMR website cover with their warranty right?

What is a reconditioned car? Don't think we have those here in NZ.
It's a car that's in a less desirable condition (usually dirty and worn) that has been cleaned up and reupholster so it looks and feels like a new car.
Zachary Ong basically, it's a 2nd or used car
Zachary Ong this term is usually used on imported second hand cars, with the majority being from Japan.
What? It's just a used car dude.
Nobody here says reconditioned - they just say used. Sorry about it mate.
hi bobby, which one would you consider the best in malaysia apart from GMR..
what happen to AUDI A7 BEHIND YOU
Lol spots wife, becomes kelam kabut. Love your videos btw :)

Perhaps you sevice 3 times, will be higher than the premium you paid.(Panel workshop)
I won't say it's very cheap but the panel workshops are monitored for pricing, they are only charging based on market rate.
