Getting Started

King of 4X4 should be Humvee. Crash proof...flat tyre proof for 50km, air diving from 100 meters in height [of course you shouldn't be in the humvee during the 100 meters air diving]...bullet proof, RPG proof, 50% wider than a Pajero......Cool...Too cool...Seen any of these in Malaysia?

today my dad complaint to UMW Toyota GM,Ong Ban Seng(correct me if wrong)
i thought today can get my hilux,but they seem not rush at all,VERY TULAN
just now at 6.35pm,SA call me and let me know that the GREEN CERTIFICATE ready liao,so Monday can register.
My hilux arrive at 29 of May but i can only get after on week. Everyday i go toyota branch chase them then after i tell my that they say they are trying,my dad go again!
My dad really NO FACE GIVE LIAO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Customer Service everyday not same person entertain,today one person serve me then tomolo another serve me pulak,but they do not know wat happen.Everytime like that,when asking when i can get my thing ,they say will give a call later, but they NEVER GIVE EVEN GIVE A CALL.When my dad and myself call back,those entertained us dissapear liao.I think UMW Toyota will JATUH without Toyota Support,just imagine if they not dealer of WELL KNOWN AND BEST VEHICLES 'Toyota'.For sure they will "rejected by society".
Their Customer Service is just a "display" department.Nothing done by them,if u send one email (feedback form) perhaps they will not care about u.I just wonder if i say i want book car from them,then wat wil they do for your email sent to them.

well...good luck to you...mine just reached 1100km today..so next monday have to service...heard that their service kinda sucks...ljs, actually thats the "REAL" period you have to wait to get ur hilux...the car might have reached the showrooms but if the jpj pengarah doesn't sign the stupid cert, then u can't get ur roadtax and the car..it too my runner 4 working days to get it done so I truly understand how u feel...
However their janji is better than janji "proton" which i will never buy another car from them again becoz of BAD BAD experience with Proton Edar...I truly recommend anyone to stay away from their newer models

My favourite will definitely be the new Hilux. It has the most spacious interior so far, plus commonrail technology... I got the previous model Hilux SR Turbo. Full tank minyak can last for one whole week or even more sumtimes. I use it for daily basis such as bringing my sister/brother to school, plus i go out everynite yam cha... Though perfomance cannot beat Nissan Frontier. Ever racing wif a Frontier before n the result is, kalah teruk:p Overall, Hilux is a very good car to own wif lot of rooms for modifications... Toyota Thailand got Hilux Vigo wif 3.0L powerplant and 2nd generation CommonRail.. Let's hope it will come to malaysian market soon...

any 4x4 running at the speed of 160km/h is a killing machine. imagine if it hits a kelisa, kenari or kancil ?...wat will happen to them ?...stright R.I.P!!! so 4x4 shouldn't speed!

kinda difficult lar to upgrade it since its using a diesel engine...very hard to get after market ecu's and air filters...u could mod the exhaust and add an intercooler...which i think possible since there is a little bit of space in front...

If not turbo put intercooler is no use.INtercooler is meant to cool the compressed air from the turbo before it enters the engine because cooler air has a high oxygen density. Also if the car is turboed i suggest installing a turbo timer,your turbo will thank you for it.
