[QUOTE="Vroom325, post: 383132, member: 17621"] Hi Iceman, agree with you. At OEM, you can't control the virgin vs recyle plastic ratio. Resin manufacturer also can't tell how much the moulder is mixing. As a result, a compromise on the tensile strength of the part.(Unless the manufacturer take the part for crash/strength test to monitor) I've just change my enginer oil yesterday after 10k km this 325 with me for 4moths. I've also changed mine yesterday as a preventive action as my car is already 5yrs old. Rcommended by M speed USJ better change before it crack. Was told that it should last about 2yr at about 60kkm. I've checked the expansion tank. It states PA66(Nylon) with GF30(glass fiber30%). Dat's common under the hood. PC is weak to oil & chemical, dat's y you don't see them using under the hood. But soon, you will see PC window glass coming up as a weight reduction to replace those side & rear window. Not the front windscreen yet, still some issues to over come. :wink: [/QUOTE]
