QUOTE(kuman @ Jul 24 2012, 10:05 AM) this is with the new promotion right? why city not nice???  i think A is ok... since with free tint you dont know what grade are they giving you.. maybe a rm200 one.. very nice price.. with current Raya promo right? if i got a choice.. i'll wait until this promo before getting mine... i got mine when they first launched this new facelift... and no discount.. BTW: test drove a Civic yesterday afternoon.... pergh...  kuman  This post has been edited by hydroboy87: Jul 24 2012, 01:48 PM |

QUOTE(iLegend @ Jul 28 2012, 02:07 PM) I never add water to the radiator before, I just check whether the coolant level is ok or not oooo....so even if it finishes...just by new coolant and add?? strictly no water!! |

QUOTE(kuman @ Aug 5 2012, 06:34 AM) i tried using the modulator before... but the location of the power socket near the handbrake didnt help.. sometime the "protruding" of the pendrive and the modulator sometimes gets on the way of my elbow... and i somehow find that the frequency of the modulator sometime gets in the way of the radio frequency in my area.. always need to reset the modulator to other frequency especially if i'm out to another area (where the surrounding frequency is different). exactly the fm modulator needs to be reset all the time....i think i will just stick to the current player and maybe change it later on...eyeing the 2 din player now... thinking of the non-branded version for Toyota car and no wire cutting needed... RM899 i believe... hmmm.. thinking thinking very hard for these.. been eyeing for one before.... still thinking...----------------------- yesterday evening get together with some other vios member from the Northern chapter of the Vios07 club... around 13 of us present... will put up some photo in a bit.. now need to get some shut-eyes... after an early sahur at the local Nasi Kandar... kuman the main thing i need to do now is the tint... whenever its sunny, kinda susah for me... can anyone give me the tinted discussion link??? i never got the voucher rm300 |

so far i tried 160kmp/h on my new vios j...
it can go faster....but i don't dare...when you are at that speed...and the road is uneven....kinda difficult to control the car, so i normally would slow down back to 140-120... the car is light....maybe after i change to a slightly wider tyre(195) the car would be more stable while driving fast.. and about the auto lock...i dont think its much of prob...the button is just at your hand rest,just press it la... yes they did cut cost, main reason i think why is------2 airbags are added,bigger tyre and g spec rim...all for rm74k...so the small things they just ignored...all in all.. i LOVE the car...powerful when needed to be...smooth driving..no noise...fuel consumption like gem... main prob would be the car weight as i feel its much lighter compare to other cars by the way i am talking about the LATEST J-SPEC vios...
