DIY acond pipe insulation done.
*
Hi, may I know there are total how many "pipe" to insulate?

As far as I can find, it's just one, which is the one come out from firewall to somewhere below the washer liquid (the 1st and 2nd of your pic). Any other "pipe"? How about the smaller one? I can see u didn't insulate it in the 2nd pic.

By the way how's the result? Worth the troubles? tongue.gif

Thanks!

then should be ok... cos last month when i got my car, i don't know what the fast last bar blinking means cos manual don't have... some more have 2 trip meters (A and B) don't know use for what... so i nicely drive, suddenly whole car shutdown doh.gif

lucky 1km away got petrol station and its not that late, able to buy a tong, refill and pour into my car doh.gif
slowly drive to the station then pump full... what's more the full is only 36l?! should have 6l reserved, then why car shutdown? doh.gif
after that scared already, once last bar, i'll straight got pump
*
I never really left my petrol tank until last bar then only refill, not because I scare my car will stop in the middle of no where, but they said it's best to refill when it's 1/3 of the bar as the petrol is also act for coolant for meter or something, there's a discussion in LYN on this you can check on that.

Hi Guys,

I'm very tempted to change to Denso Iridium spark plugs, but heard that this will void the warranty, is this true? Coz I think spark plugs also considered performance part.

Anyone have any thoughts of having a brighter cabin light? I am driving a 06 model G spec Vios, and have thoughts to increase visibility of our pathetic 5W filament festoon bulb.

I'm using those 3x3 white LED for the map light, cabin one even more LED biggrin.gif, very nice and bright! Satisfying!

Hi guys,

That day my Toyota Vios tyre almost got stolen, so now I'm planning to get my self a lock nut to lock my rim.

From what I heard, not all lock nut can be use, there's this specific measurement for the original rim, may I know for Vios spec E 2011 rim, which nut I should use? Any seller can recommend so I can just buy straight from him?

Thank you!

@icycokes

If I'm right there's one behind Genting Highland, not really clear with the exact location but I think somewhere near the Mushroom farm.
