hi Myvians...
There is a O/D OFF indicator light right? when the light is on...means overdrive mode is off?
*

if O/D OFF light, means is off, no virtual gear (for last gear) apply when high speed...

Hi,

Do you guys drive under 100km/h for the first 1K km?
I drove 80-90km/h currently but when it almost reach 90km/h, I hear whistle sound....Anyone having this prob?
Btw, how much is the fuel tank in Myvi? Yesterday I pump RM40 and it automatically pops out. Thought it already full but when I start my car the indicator shows 1 more block to Full.
Any advise?
*

whistle sound due to improper aerodynamics of the car body... usually come from door mirror or visor...
but mine also dont have whistle sound...

i think is ur petrol station pump machine having problem, is it u pumping petronas fuel?

ive been told that premium model have UV protection on the glasses right? so my question is, is it the window all get dark like if we tinted? or i need to tinted it to make it dark? not too dark la i mean. let say maximum of jpj specification.
*

UV protection doesnt means it dark... sweat.gif
it u wanted to reach the limitation of JPJ specification, is quite risky for u...
as we know JPJ rules & regulation always change time by time...

ya meh,thats y im curious, actually before this i went to showroom and take a look at myvi se orange color, the window look dark and ive been informed that glasses have UV protection. so guess it will be same on new facelift premium version. laugh.gif hmm.gif
*

or perhaps only that show room car?

so far i never saw any new facelifted myvi on the road come with dark window... most of them look clear for me...

hi guys..

long time no post here..lately very bz with work..
weii, i got hit by 16-wheels Petronas trailer fully loaded with gas can in melaka..luckily i'm safe..but sadly, my vivi hancur in front..but lucky engine is ok same as before..

rite now my car start bunyi bising at driver door (inside) and also at rear especially at top brake light and roof..the question is, can i get fixed this thing at P2 for free? since my car only 1yrs old..
*

hm... since ur car involved accident, by right ur warranty voided because it was not manufacture defect...

QUOTE(wwlai87 @ Jun 17 2009, 08:27 PM)
if u notice nice model if myvi without tinted, the glass are slightly in green colour..

those are with UV protection screens
*

slightly in green is ok...

but if dark doesnt sound reasonable... perodua definitely dont want to be trouble in the future...
for sure they will remain within safe boundary and the owner take the risk if want to tint darker window...

any 5w30 or 10w30 will do...

hie guys, need help badly. after changing my rims 16" with 205/45 tires, my fc have increased dramatically.

previously on stock rims n tires, full tank wud go 380km. now its just a measly 280km for a full tank.
just serviced my car last week (normal service). but the tires im using are 3 diff tires. front tires are same, back tires diff. my fren said dat was the problem causing the FC to rise.

so isit the weight of the rim plus the diff tires thats causing this? or my alignment? cos my alignment is abit off.

many thx ahead
*

the weight of the rim was the major issues... if used wider tires, means more friction between tires surface and road surface... alignment still lead the high FC as well...

but i think different tires wont cause high FC significant, only the car will imbalance when u heavy pickup, over speeding and heavy braking... in sense that will lead the danger to u...

hmmm.

but wud fc be dat bad? i tried drivin as conservatively as i can. but didnt noe FC would be dat bad.

so in dat case, alignment and change of lighter rims? i read dat stock myvi rims n tires weigh 7kg. so lookin forward to weighin the new rims n tires.

its jsut a headache watchin ur fuel go down like a heavily souped out turbo car.
*

maybe try to do the alignment 1st... and pump more air into tires to reduce friction...
but if u drive auto definitely will lost more power in between...

anyway, i driving SXI, my myvi can serve me 550km per fuel tank or 17km/L with stock condition... smile.gif

hey wanna ask.

did anyone here smell gas inside the car after fueling at gas station?

mine always smell the gas.....

drove my friend's myvi se today, new ver 1..

comment,
Myvi is quite comfortable, like a mini vios/city , only thing, the engine is damn loud. eventho shift gear at 2k rpm. dono is it normal or what... but.zzz quite turn off. Liked the leather steering and seats, very comfortable. And i also liked the red meter , feel's bmw .

so far, my friend's car only got 4k mileage, but the car already 8 month old =0  But overall, quite a nice car. =D
*

8 months old only drive 4000km ...
means 1 month drive 500km, most 20km per day... sweat.gif

QUOTE(saru88 @ Jul 11 2009, 05:02 AM)
hi myvi owners...

i'm choosing in between Myvi SE Auto and Persona Auto...

im thinking what is the FC for a Myvi SE Auto? any major/common/uncommon problems for Myvi SE?

also, if goin up Genting, the car will be underpowered anot? lets say 4 pessengers...

tq so much...
*

if u worry for power and FC, recommended to choose manual instead...
i tried stock myvi auto last 2 year, i cant feel the ommph from engine even though i floored the petrol pedal... haha...
unless u mod the engine, air intake system, exhaust system and tuned ECU may different performance... smile.gif

better look for pedal lock instead of steering lock...
no matter how tough is the steering lock, the steering wheel was cut-able to remove steering lock without any hassle...

How to prevent this from happen, beside reroute the cable?
http://forum.myviclub.com/index.php?showtopic=15265

My car stolen before, so don't want to have second time..
*

u can reroute the cable away from fender since it is FOC...

otherwise install a switch on ur front bonnet which connected to door's switch...
it can be DIY also but more jobs required to be done... as remember there have the thread at myvi forum about the installation... smile.gif

hey ppl... Planning to send my car for service the first time after my warranty period over. The thing is I drop-by Eneos at my area just now and ask unfortunately, they dun have P2 engine oil so ask me to use their Eneos brand engine oil oh. The reason I wanna send there is also partly ask them to clean my K&N drop in filter and fix the Pivot VS so now a bit confuse whether wanna go back P2 SC for service or not. Can u guys share wat brand of engine oil did u all use aside from P2 wan or any brand 2 recommend that's good for myvi or should I stick back to P2 better??  icon_question.gif

usually fully syn used for racing purpose or extreme condition or heavy usage...
but of cos good fully syn can easily cost more then RM200+++
so semi syn should sufficient for normal usage which cost around RM100 smile.gif
