hi ! my mum went to Toyota SC today.. and tot of asking them to do wheel allignment.. and to our surprise.. the technician said we cannot do for ur car because ur car using Yokohama tyre.. and need 4 wheel balancing or something like that.. and their SC only provide 2 wheel balancing..? as i can remembered la..

is that possible..? now my mum have to go outside wheel shop n do wheel allignment..

*Update : i did say rear tyre got some humming sound.. turns out to be rear tyre bearing spoil d.. go to TOYOTA SC ask for quotation... rm1200 alone for 1 bearing.. zz.. mum saw so expensive.. then Technician there said.. outside probably cheaper.. so we went outside to fix it..

in the end.. fix at dad's fren shop.. rm360... ROFL... Toyota potong kepala... LOL.. thumbup.gif sweat.gif doh.gif

Hi all Vios owner smile.gif How much does it cost to change the fabric seats to leather one? I'm a happy Vios G '09 owner smile.gif
*
i am not sure.. but my parents car last time, came with the car using the soft furry type[white-tish].. then parents buy the 'leather' ? and like wrap around the old wan.. because my dad is a bit dirty due to his work.. and we wrap all our cushion into brown colour 'leather' ? and that cost urm.. a few hundred...not more than 700 i assume..? but that was like a few years back..3-4 years back..

not sure tho what kind of leather u meant.. like really remove the old fabric and replace with leather only..? or like what i meant above..?

My 'wong wong wong' sound is getting louder and just found out my Vios dugong 07 bearing getting worse, just change the rear-right bearing - the whole assembly part come as a whole - bearing with sensor and can't be dismantle just to change the bearing part... cost RM480 + workmanship. Heavy damage.

My both front also exhibit some bearing problem but both were overriden by the even louder noise of the rear-right bearing. I delay a bit the replacement as my pocket not deep enough to change tires & bearing together.

4yrs old Toyota car... can't last like the old times.

i wonder the road u drive really a lot of potholes..

my mum's vios.. 4 year old also.. before the dugong model wan..

drive normal road and highway... a bit uneven road.. and once a week drive along 1-2km of rocky road [jalan kampung, chicken farm area] so u can guess how rotten that road is.. until now car rear right hand side bearing only spoil..

change new one.. like u said.. whole set together one.. cannot just change bearing only.. mine is rm360 + workmanship.. car no abs btw..

izzit different if car got abs..?
