no rpm to view...i only use that Eco Score meter as my rpm...hahaha

got my car service for 5k.... hahaha

wow .. so fast beck ken. How much u service for 5000km hehe.

sent my car for servicing today for the first 1k. RM109, cheaper than that of my wife's Viva, which was RM119....

which engine lube oil do you guys go for? Mineral? Semi-Synthetic?

Everyday Cyber-KL, you said fast or not...

2nd service is RM68.00

Service Adviser advised me first 10k used only mineral. After 10k you can whatever type you prefer..

Some more Ganador sports muffler related stuff:







They do show the prius c in there albeit briefly but it also talks a little about the power boost system (pbs)/efficiency/torque/noise/etc as well as the manufacturing process and what not. The third one doesn't show the prius c though and shows some stuff already shown in the 2nd vid.

Oh really? But what did you guys go for? It seems like the car doesn't use the engine as much as typical car, so does it worth it to use fully-synthetic after 10k? What do you guys think?

I will go for the synthetic after 10k

Hey, to buy number plate and insurance, can it be done in 6 hrs?

Why you all can get your priusC so quick ? @@. I ordered prius C in April 20 something and the SA said it will arrive at September, what the....

Yala. I placed my booking early of March (the day it was launch in my city) and still my SA can't give an ETA. My friend who booked later is getting his in few days time. Apparently he has a merit membership which allow him to jump que.

Ouch, that's quite long but I feel your pain hehe. Ordered mine beginning of March and it still hasn't come but it's already in the country.. I was told initially April... then May.. then mid May... then add two more days... now it must be somewhere in limbo heh. I've already played all my patience cards so I think I shall be a bit more assertive and lay some pressure. Not sure what the deal was but they told me they already had cars on the lot (my color too) at the beginning of May so I don't know why mine is coming at a later shipment (I assume they must be licking someone's butt and pushing them into my place in the queue perhaps - as of now that's the only thing I can surmise). I feel as if there are so many hoops to jump through and seriously did consider another car at one point but I will stick to my guns because I really like this car. Perhaps you can ask one of the folks in this thread for their SA (sales advisor), in fact just a few posts down someone mentinoed there was a white one available but I don't know if someone snatched that one up already. Stick around and I'm sure someone will post up if there is one available quicker. Anyone mind assisting BabyZero to get their car quicker?

@s3nInsight
Ahhh, maybe that is what happened to me too! What city by the way?

So ur friend getting the car already? How long he wait..book in April 18...mine said need to wait till Nov...even I am merit member also cannot cut que....huh..

His car has arrived on 17th May and will be getting it anytime next week.
He waited for less 2 months ++ only. He actually wanted to cancel his booking to get a Jazz Hybrid but then the SA said his unit will be arriving soon. Maybe u can do the same thing to your SA. Threaten to cancel booking then might get urs quicker. Hahha.

I heard SA said actually they dont have test drive car. I wonder they sell test drive car to those "merit member cum cut que"

Nola. No such a thing one la.

Hey, my sa told me the same too. After that they explain even the car is here and allotted. But it depends cos ap clearance took some time at port. Further, UMW need to recheck the car for pre delivery inspection due to shipment. A friend of mine got his polo gti, brand new, but pdi suck. He got a car with the whole exhaust pipe rusted. So that checking is very important. Hope that all buyer will check their car even the bottom of the car.

Anyone have this problem before?

I encountered 2 times. When I pump petrol almost full, the petrol gun will stop, then when I pull out, the petrol overflow out... Damn!

I never pump petrol to full, mostly 3/4 full only. pump to full tank is easier to overflow, and is not healthy as petrol contains some harmful gas.

With hybrid low FC, actually just pump half tank full and will last you for a week, carrying less fuel also mean carry less weight, and your FC will even good.

Thanks for the info. I for one have already planned to inspect it fully before I even drive it off the lot, I've also written myself a checklist reminder of stuff (aside from the stuff like nicks, rust) like the map version, the wheel alignment, underside, all lights functioning, airbag indicator (not sure if this one stays on like the US version for the back passenger), wipers, all windows/mirrors, seat fabric, tinting, reverse cam mounting..just everything I'm going to be really anal about it but I want to make sure everything is tip top condition and working, have to be thorough with my car purchases hehe.

@beck_ken
That's kind of weird cos I know the Prius C can take quite a little bit more over than what it states in the manual so it shouldn't be spitting it up unless it was really full up to the brim which I doubt cos the pump would stop way before that (auto) unless you were filling it manually but possibly overflow like Kiding said. Did you pump at the same place and pump? Maybe it hadn't settled down in the tank yet.

Here's a post about filling the tank to capacity
