HELL!!!
i prefer esso compared to petronas, but petronas is just across the road, lol

isnt there any law dat states u must state the exact info about ur products? its like u must write the price tag on every item, the same shud go when stating the correct ron for the vpower, aint it? i always feel like iam being lied to when it comes to the ron value of vpower, i hate dat
but techincally v power racing they dont say what ron it is right
but they sure do imply that its hell a lot higher than ron 97 lol

I am not sure whether in Malaysia, we have some kind of Govt authority body/organisation to check on the RON value at every pump station stations on periodical/constant basis. :hmmmm:

In Europe, they got their govt agency to do it (in constant period basis). They will check every pump to ensure that the RON stated in that pump is containing the exact minimum RON label as per mentioned. So that the customer will get what they paid for. Then they will sealed the pump with some hologram sticker mentioned that it is verified containing the fuel of above said RON, together with the date of inspection. For those pump station owner who failed the inspection, would get the hefty fine.

I've encounter once at Shell station R&R before exit Negeri Sembilan. (after KLIA exit). Sorry due to forgot the place. It's happen a day before RON97 increase to rm2.70 last time. I was pump in around 10am and noted price was rm2.90. I've shocked, but just realized that price will increase by today (that day). Then by evening when travelling back to Ipoh, i pumped in again and noted that priced was became rm2.70. I think that some few petrol stations take advantage to user within period of transition of petrol price.

Shell Vpower is nitrogen enriched. It has better formulation i.e. detergents & additives to clean the engine internal parts. Most cars RON 95 is sufficient, maybe once in a while put VP. Other brands also has their detergents but maybe not as much but no nitro+.

Was at the shell station this morning............

Shell V-power now RM 3.10 per liter - what the hell!!!!!!!!!

I noticed that as well but I can't remember the price was RM2.70 or RM2.90. I didn't bother and continue pumping. Can't remember which station I went. But not the same one as yours.

Bugger I got conned as well then.

Hi guys.

Im looking at Clifford, Viper and Commando.
Most important feature for me is 2-way, shock sensor and starter kill.
I dont need remote start since its merely a luxury but not a necessity though the brands above carry this feature.

What d'ya think?
