try ace hardware or those shops selling leather sofas, they should sell cleaners as well

You can try Meguiars Leather Cleaner and conditioners.

You ever use before this brand?
I know Meguiars is quite the branded stuff, just wondering if it really will work ....

Looking for brand recommendation, really. I bought cheap version, just to cubatry, and it didn't work.

I bought mine at Parkson. Price is RM 57.00 but I have parkson voucher.

The item is 2 in 1 spray Cleaner and Conditioner.
Every products have nice smells to them. I used their car shampoo, wax and few items from Meguiars. No complain. Highly recommended.
Even their wax smells like perfume.

Now they have new packaging below.

ohh..so you have heard before that some other ppl also facing this problem as well? Any idea what the Toyota SC did to fix that?

I think only G spec will face this problem due to the dashboard integrated radio is having the panel in black color shining plastic material, suspecting that piece of thing is producing the noise when vibrating. Because other specs like J or E they have the same piece of panel as well but their material looks different and won't produce that kind of noise I guess.

Added on September 17, 2012, 5:40 amhi kuman, the sound coming out from the dashboard (on top of the meter area) that happened to you brother's Vios, so eventually did Toyota SC manage to fix that problem after put something to where the sound originated?

If it involves cutting of wires, I think the warranty will be voided.

yup.. eventually they did.. (after a few trip to their SC).. i believe they tighten something under the dashboard

kuman

warranty issue is very subjective depending on sc


lucky these days one can change to aftermarket headunit without touching the original wiring

old picture from my com

I too had issues of dashboard sound, especially at the centre area. Whenever I press down in front of the meters, the sound disappears. Taken to SC a few times, they could not rectify the problem. Will be gone a few weeks, and after that, the sound is back.

Got fed up one day, decided to DIY. It is easy. The panels are easy to take out, they are attached with just push fit clips! Pull the bottom one first, the middle one behind the gearshift, then the 2 side panels and lastly the meter surround. Took me sometime to find out where the sound came from. Use a stick on felt pad to isolate the offending panel from the metal underneath and presto, no sound, after 1 year. There is actually a video on youtibe showing how to take out the panels.

Putting back was easy, just push in.

hi,

i need to send my vios for service , is toyota sc in Puchong (jalan perindustrian puchong) good?

Thanks for any info...

feel sad a bit that i had to say goodbye to my 07 vios and this thread.

But life still has to go on...i will still contribute my humble opinions if needed...keep it up Vios drivers...

upgrade to what car

Doesn't mean that you can't post in the thread anymore.

Hey guys. My vios has just went through the 20k service. Told SC bout the squealing noise when I brake, they told me serviced my brakes and when I test drive with a person in the car, everything seems ok.

A week later problem came back... Any idea what it is?

Plus my dashboard noise also comes on and off... Just recorded it on my phone and will show SC when I go back. Right now more concerned about squealing noise from brakes, scared later accident....

Any idea anyone?

still a Toyota.
Prius.

Yup. But my activity in FnF will definitely spend more in another thread, no?

I had squealing sound everytime i brake about 2 months ago.
Changed the brake pads for less than 3 months that time.

Checked the manual, and found out that sound is actually by design to alert the driver for brake pad replacement. (Which reminded me that i changed a cheaper brake pads previously)

Went ahead and replaced them by stating i want those Made in Jpn and Asbestos Free...no problems until today.

any tool needed? or just bare hands to pull and push the panel?

another question is, the bottom one and middle one behind gearshift are where you referring to?

Ok thanks for the detailed info... I'll check it out and see.
I just want something that works, not fussy on brand
