Thanks. Wonder if you can upload to mediafire ^^

Can't wait to see pics of other users cars hehe.

No worry, There is lot of picture over the internet. Seem you really can't wait to get your car?

I've seen lots of the pics on the net, but I want to know if there are any minute differences/variations in the actual paint colors or if the differences are just superficial (paint color names). I do know we don't get some of the colors other places get though, plus I want to see them shining in the hot Malaysian sun (and yes I can't wait lol, gotta at least do something to kill the time!)

Today just call my SA, seem I got hope to get the car in May. But still I haven't apply the loan..

Looks like currently plenty of Prius C had arrived. Now really had to prepare to said bye bye to my 1st car.

Thanks all for your input. Looks like we are progressing for being a all in one solution to refer for our prius c car.

To : conqu3ror - same here too. My SA ask me apply loan one month before car arrive. Can't wait though. ^^ .

my SA said next week will get mine. tak sempat to get my car before my bday! sun is my bday liao...wuuu...
so "see kui" my SA, didnt even wanna gimme full tank petrol..shit man..no freebie at all

you should ask SA all the gift & discount before booking the car. Now too late already, he happily earning your commission & know you can't fly away from his hand.

Just send my white PriusC for first free inspection at 1k. Based on UMW normal schedule for regular vehicles, we have to fork out more money to change engine oil and filter.
Actually hybrid vehicle uses the petrol engine about half the time. The PriusC manual as well as USA site recommend change at 10k.

I thought Prius C maintenance is 10K interval? that was what UMW SA told me.

The recommended engine oil is 0W-20 synthetic for Prius, so I guess Prius C also need to be at the same level.

Have to check out what other local Prius owners have said on the web regarding UMW fixed compulsory standard maintenance service at 1k, 5k, 10k, 20k etc. Maybe this is to ensure steady income for UMW and to remain valid for their relatively short 3-year warranty that is standard for all their models. First service is RM104.36 total.

Local UMW also uses regular mineral type Toyota Motor Oil 10W-30 to replace the original Toyota Japan motor oil filled in our imported model which is to be replaced at 5k if severe driving conditions, otherwise good until 10k km or 12 months.

FYI, brake pads in Prius are known to last very very long as the car normally uses engine regen braking instead of friction from the brake pads.

Cant as using unifi. After change can't online.


And yup. i saw in USA the service interval is 10,000 km. Wonder if dont go for 1k, 5k service will void warranty or not.

to mkhor7 - wah so cheap ah the service, even cheaper than proton.. ok.. toyota its not cheap but reasonable haha. later they see this thread they increase the price.


Any owner want to register their name to owner list ^^

I also can't wait for my car la. So eager to get it and make up some modified after reading US priuschat forum.

1st - sport rim plus wider tyre
2nd - window tint
3rd - black matt vinyl for front and rear bumper (only centre part of both bumper)
4th - head unit + rear view camera + navigation (now trying hard to find a good one which compatible with steering control. Heard ciplak dlaa or other ciplak brand can fit. But I doubt the quality) (but I don't wana purchase from toyota original unit as its 3k. Too expensive yet I don't know the quality)
5th - alpine component speaker and small underseat subwoofer
6th - brown vinyl for interior dash board.
7th - other minor accessories (number plate holder etc)

Arrgh, can wait it arrive to start working on it.

Same mine also no auto lock. I start drive till I stop also doesn't lock. Unless it lock silently and without moving all the door lock physically.

Whether it is silently lock or actually we can heard it when its lock?

Maybe its driver seat can unlock car anytime. Maybe you can test after running the car and ask someone from outside to open the door.

Sometimes too the car is too intelligent until we forgot to lock car. It happen to my Sis Prius a lot of time.

Just heard that a showroom have ready car for Orange. Wonder anyone still waiting their Orange Prius C. Looks like cars most of us should get it in May.

Please PM me if anyone interested to grab this car.

Google for how to bypass unifi dns, a good one here :
Bypass DNS blocking


1st service billed 3.7 liters regular mineral engine oil RM69.56 and one expensive oil filter RM30.70 !

Proton could be giving semi-syn Petronas oil.

Added on April 25, 2012, 12:53 pmIt seems by default PriusC is delivered without the autolock mode on . In USA, owner can turn it on with a few steps detailed in their manual. However it is reported that European spec the same step cannot activate it. Unfortunately here our Malaysian spec also cannot activate it using the steps from USA manual. Local SA still do not know whether can or cannot.
Maybe it is because the PriusC here do not have auto door unlock upon collision .

Hi.. I heard from my SA that I will be getting my white Prius C in early May. Not yet applied for loan.. how early do we really need to get the loan? do u apply to the bank or the SA can arrange it for us? any recommended bank with good rates?

sorry, first time buyer here..

thanks

Wow, first car getting Prius C..

Actually SA will earn some commission when we apply loan, so just let the SA do the job.

Some bank just take 2-3 working days, some may take 1-2 weeks to approve.

Anyone know the current rate? SA only told me is about 2.5%
