Finally solved the rattling issue of the dashboard. To other brothers who have the same problem, check the wiper area outside.

Not sure how the sound can intrude inside, but they dismantled the whole part of the wiper and replaced a new one. Sound gone. Happy adi.

Then on the eay back heard spme gluk gluk sound from the back. I was thinking, alamak, solve one problem, another pop out pulak. Check check around, actually the rear seats were not locked in place. Cheh. Make me worry so much.

Total time wasted today, 8 hours. And another 40 km added to my pdometer.

4 days old only. Somehow when driving a new car, and you are so careful, you seem to notice more idiots on the road

Chilling put now at overtime having a well deserved pint, after just now did the soundproof rubber thing on all four doors.

Comfort and handling dont go hand to hand bro. Stock is a balance of both.

Still got lots planned for my car. Got lubang saying that will be getting a custom ECU reflash for our preve. But not so soon.

Buy from faifai at the automotivr garage. I bought his because his is the latest design.

For rims, still looking for a nice offset rims. But have to wait for adjustables or lowering springs and absorbers to come out first. I dont like people who change rims and therre is a big gap between the wheel arch and rims. Very ugly.

I prefer the BMW look, where even stock rims fill the wheel arches nicely. With one finger gap. Thats sexy. My previous satria also like that.

See if your seats can fold infront without unlocking it. Just pull it forward. Then push it back untill it clicks.

Sorry bro, i really dont know how many meters. He asked me to use small d. I told him for all 4 doors, boot and bonnet. Total rm 150.

Anyways now only can hear wind noise from a pillar at speeds above 100km/h. Need to rectify that. Other then that, noise is like being in a camry now smile.gif

normally global they will give better quality. more air bags.. ours one can have parts here so no problem to change even low quality a bit... that is what i think usually i think the export one will be better quality...

in japan different their toyota the best quality for their rakyat...the other country one will receive lower quality or at least lower a bit than those got their car in japan

Japan has no Avanza. No way a japanese would drive such a crappy car. And yes, my family has one too.

Like it is locked in too tight, then when you open the door it just 'pops'?

Mine is like that as well after putting in the rubber.

If can install torque app inside and pair it with obd2 bluetooth device, no need to install external meter.
