Thanks for the advice.
sigh....I don't have the budget and alza is the most i can get. After knowing all these problems, it really made me to reconsider about this MPV...sigh...but I have no choice.

I used to owned Toyota Avanza 1.3. The ride is terrible.

I would like to ask, does Alza is has a bumpy ride on the back seat? The second roll not the third roll. As for Avanza is terrible bumpy on the 2nd and 3rd roll. What about ALZA?

1. Recently i park my car toward down slope, yesterday after heavy down pour my driver side floor is flooded!
last time i tot is my bottle water leak, but now its totally from outside rain water...
any 1 encounter this problem?
2. Wondering Do u guy smell heavy petrol inside cabin after finish refill, even u switch the engine off every time?
is this comment problem?

IMHO the suspension setting is already too firm for driving solo. With spring coil buffer, I think it will be worst unless your car is always full of passenger al the time.

I just changed a new petrol tank....the manager promised that no more smell even inside cabin.....so I believe...

yesterday when i pump petrol, i still smell strong petrol smell inside cabin.......WTF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i will try once more time before i go to f*** the manager....

coming from potong tin cars, i find the alza very quiet already. no problem with the tyres. not gonna do sound proof also.

Want to share a bit on the disc brakes.
I went to change the ori brake pads to something less dusty. But after using for a few weeks, it started to have noise when hitting the brakes. Took it back to mechanics and we saw the disc brake is now not even. So obviously the solution is to skim the surface. He took the disc out from the car, skim it with a rotating machine. Put them back, now it has klok klok klok noise when I hit the brakes.

He said this is normal, all ABS cars will have this for first 2 days. This is unacceptable, but let's try. After 2 days, still have the noise. I took them back and we look at the disc again, uneven once more. So now we use on-wheel skimming. This, in my personal view, is the best way and most effective way. And after doing it, put the brake pads on, indeed no more noise at all each time I use the brakes. No matter how hard I step on it, extremely quiet. So if u get charge for disc surface skimming, make sure you choose on-wheel skimming and not dismantle the disc and skim on a machine, unless they have a extremely good machine I guess.

PUTRAJAYA: The Ministry of International Trade and Industry will announce a cut in car duties from Japan and Australia on Thursday.

Its minister, Datuk Seri Mustapa Mohamed said on Wednesday the reduction would be over three years for car models originating from the two countries.

Speaking at the investKL media briefing, he said more details would be released on Thursday.

What i can say u choose it u deserve it....

Mine also got petrol fumes if refill full tank. Is this common problem for Alza?

Then I am the unluckiest guy in the world lor.....after changed a new petrol tank, I still can smell petrol inside cabin no matter how much u pump in.....drive alza will get cancer soon......

meaning to say
1) the P2 product quality is  .
OR
2) the service centre QC is 

Have anyone install Orsen shield on their alza? Care to share the outcome? If it is good, I'm interested in getting one

you got spammed? Than it's too bad. I installed boxbe (email blocker) so no spamming for me but I still like to know the product prrformance. If it is good, I would like to install it

Basically, if you wanna buy a new national car, do not buy newly launch model. My fren still have problem with his exora bold (bought last year).

Not yet. And the school holiday is over!! Have been to many places so didn't have time to get it done. Now the normal service mileage is up too... so must visit them. Many have gotten theirs fixed after visit SC. Some say new batch have no such problem, but that I cannot confirm that. A friend just bought a 2012 batch a few months ago, so far no fuel in the cabin after full refill.

Eithanius, still survive with Alza?
