Mine is G spec. Drive to uni everyday. 

I face exactly same problems as you mentioned above.

1. wind noise is noticeable especially I drive above 100km/h. I have no idea to reduce wind noise. Maybe type of tyre?

2. aircond is not cold enough compared to national car - I think most of vios owners face this problem because this type of car is build for better FC.

I pumped RON97 petrol 2 days ago. I can feel significant power gained in RON97 compared to RON95. However, it's more expensive IMO, I might change to RON95

that can't be helped much, apparently it affects lots of car as well. they need to sell at affordable price, hence the lower grade quality. but it's acceptable as compare to proton/perodua quality, no offence
congrats on new car!

hi

speedometer and rpm meter as mentioned are actually not lighten up and low head lamp need to on first.

but as for sportivo version (or S version before) it comes with optitron meter, it will lighten up and looks really cool!

i have change my meter to optitron meter and really cool! it also comes with multi info display which will show u fuel consumption, average km/h, real time km/h, real time fuel consumption and also distance to empty.

Hi, anyone using autofoam frm KL Auto? Pls comment if any.

Sry, NVH as in Noise, Vibration and Harshness. It means sound insulation of the car.

Bottom line is, a lot of noise is generated from the tires and the NCT 5s are notorious for being noisy and uncomfortable.

c-drive2 available for 14 inch?

price for c-drive2..?

hmmm... maybe can consider CC5 cos cheaper...

XM1 i think discontinued already... replaced with the super expensive XM2

i been thru several experience of sound proofing... just like enson1985, i did dynamat on my 1st car, and it cost more than 2.5K, it covered all including door, floor, roof, boot, fender and etc. not to mention with some superlon on top of dynamat on certain area, at the end, the result seems not satisfied also, it does improve, but not as much as i tot.

compare to my forum members who went to kl auto and spend similar budget as i, they got better result.

in conclusion, u need several material for sound proof, and dynamat aka those bitument stuff is only godd in prevent rattling noise at door, roof and bonet. if u like to boom boom ur ICE, u definitely need this, but dun over done on this thing, just spend the right amount will do, and spend ur other budget on auto foam (pillar package or comfort package), den must get the road buster things from kl auto, that "sanitary pad" works! even toyota prius having it, but kl auto version is even more suitable for our local road condition...

just feel free to drop by there, desmond is a good guy... be prepare to get poison...
btw to enson1985, if u manage to get 10% improvement, is a good result... for an example, imagine when u cruising and ur stock vehicle cabin noise is 75db, after SP is 67.5db, still not satisfy?... SP is not easy to achieve high improvement, and its expensive too, for me 10% will be happy enough and drive with  ...

Guys, dont expect too much from vios becos through my experience of 3.5 years with my G spec i found this car is not worth the price we pay for, firstly the noise problem everyone is complaining, secondly, the parts quality is not as we guys expected, well i have change twice the front absorber twice the engine mounting, the air cond. compressor once, the lower arm both side n many complain about the timing i mean the rpm, my rpm is only 620 rpm with a/c on, but until today they still cant solve it until finally they told me its like that. All those mention change during warranty except the lower arm. How hassle is it to change the parts, the time wasted n going to the sc. Worst part is recently when i sat in my friend saga FL model, the saga is even more quiet than the vios.
