i think tilt sensor is as what the name suggest... if somehow people tilt your car on one side... front.. back or sideway (for example jacking the car to steal your rims.. or worst your car...) the alarm will go blazing... correct me if i'm wrong..

my SA showed this to me once.. but it never happened again.. biggrin.gif

was at Toyota this afternoon... they showed to me the new pamphlet as well.. since the new price will be in effect soon...
now some of the SA is pushing to clear the stock of the old Vios model... cheaper with additional discount (RM1888 IIRC) for J version...

the SA comparing for me the additional features for J and the E version.. i also think that they J "upgrades" are worth it if you're looking for a new VIOS.... i'm also "thinking" of upgrading my J-Manual vios to the new version (J-Auto) hence my visit to Toyota Sales.. ;D

my 2cents worth..

Then, what is the different of the new J and E?
*
the difference between the new Vios J spec and E spec as below:

1. Both having 15 inch alloy rims now (silver colored)

2. J will have new seat design in black color while E remain the current two-toned black and blue seat.

3. E will still remain have the fog lamps, while J doesn't have any fog lamps installed.

4. the radio is different for both J and E.

5. J will have dual air bags same like E.

6. J's back seat not able to fold, while E can.

7. J's signal lamp will be on the car body, for E it will be integrated with side foldable mirrors.


basically, not much difference, but the price difference between J and E is RM5k, for those who interested to buy but still dilemma between J or E, in my opinion J is more worth it.

yup.. i also J is more worth it... hence the reason i'm booking a J this time around

me also loving my 2007 J Manual vios... but i developed a condition on my left knee that makes driving a manual more of a hassle since late May so i have nno choice but to "upgrade" to Vios J-Auto... sad.gif

Manual saves so much FC.. dunno how's the Auto going to fair me the FC...

this time around i booked White as well....now need to find a shop that can do the G-Limited bodykit

@Thunderbolt:
- IIRC they offer me 2.4K fr the G-limited bodykit... but he SA recommend me to get from outside.. much cheaper.. but the problem is where to find!!

@zheilwane:
- 4K discount? wow that a lot of discount .. err you sure thats for the new facelift version of VIOS? since i went to one showroom.. and they offer me 2K discount for the current version... since they want to clear the stock impending release of the new version...

kuman

2.4k is kinda expensive...by the way did you ask the SA about the Toyota original accessories the DVD Player AXN and AVN? how much are they?

Toyota even more genius.. The Vios E spec came with the Pioneer FH-P6050UB which got USB & AUX input but that input at the back of the player actually. They didn't give any extention cable to let me plug in the USB!!
So I have to purchase the USB cable my own and bring it to acc shop to take out the HU and plug in the USB cable!
user posted image

Even Toyota SC also got no idea with the USB thingy.. sweat.gif
I ask them, they told me USB socket at the back of HU. Then I ask how to plug in, they reply: "I also don't know".. sweat.gif

how about the G spec original HU? is there USB port at the back as well?

Either change to OEM head unit or change to branded head unit. and if change to branded head unit, if we are willing to pay for another RM100, they can help us to fabricate the cable with original toyota socket to use our steering control. whole process no need to cut any of our original wire.

you are from penang? which accessories shop you went to ask about the HU?

I think the only difference would be the smoked headlamps, the rest should be the same.

After spending 2 days with my car... hmmm~~~

3. the remote abit not that sensitive. press and release only the beep come out.
I heard from SA that this is a security feature, to prevent car owner accidentally presses the lock/unlock button. For example, when putting the remote in the pocket or etc.

So it requires us to press and hold for like 2 seconds to lock/unlock the doors.

Hi ~ anyone know how much does a V-belt cost?
Just serviced my car in SS19 SC and the technician said V-belt needs to be change at next service.
And I also asked them to fix the noisy dashboard. Noise still there but not as loud but glove box can't close properly. Will set appointment again this week  shocking.gif
*
The noise that you faced is it only comeing out when the car goes through un-even road?

If yes then most probably could be due to the glove box open/close lid.
With the glove box closed, while driving through un-even road, try ask somebody sit next to you and press+hold the lid of the glove box, see whether the noise is still there or not, if yes then could be because the lid is vibrating and hitting the glove box thus producing noise.
Solution is to open the lid, paste some insulator/rubber along the lid to mute the noise.

dear all VIOS user..have dilemma here. 2 of my best offer to own a vios J Spec

a . Price after subtracting all discount/promo = MYR 75712 + 500 groceries voucher

b.  Price after subtracting all discount/promo = MYR 76200 + 500 groceries voucher +carpet + tint (i think not those premium) + full tank.

Which 1 a better deal?  A or B?

P/s : if any of u got a better deal than this...Pls pm me (Sales agent oso can pm me)
*
meaning the difference would be RM76200 - RM75712 = RM488 (carpet+tint+full tank)

carpet for both front and back should be around RM80 to RM90 only, full tank petrol lets say RM70, total RM160, then they would give you those normal tint film costs around RM300 i guess.

I understand the latest VIOS is only facelift. Does anyone knows usually Toyota will launch a new VIOS (new engine?) within how many years? Will 2013 be the year or should it be 2014?

Rumours said it's 2013.
