i cant imagine..is it you need to press more to break? i dun have this problem...

instead of just move front and back, it move left and right....

btw i found out that the zinc roof problem... i.e. loud "TAK" TAK" sound is not because of the roof but actually because of the thin rear windshield...

hi all,

newbie here for a new Vios J. Anyone realized that the new Vios cabin NVH is really very bad?

Anyone did soundproof for firewall, floor, bonnet to reduce the cabin noise? Or shall we just change to a low Db tyres?

Anyone tried this before?

thanks!

NVH is good, dun need further sound proof, today pump FC is 17-18 sen/km

New vios 2013 lock and unlock door dun have alarm sound?

I try to test the alarm system by lock the door and try to open the door from inside and to my surprise the alarm no sound?
*
i had same experience, after that i guess u have to wait around 1 minute after press lock button in order to activate alarm... so to test, u press lock and wait for more than 3 minutes then use key unlock the door and alarm will sound

tested my vios 160km/h for a short while, i can say its super stable and feel like 90kmh... dunno what they do to improve the current vios... sound also quiet...

i also found solution to the dashboard noise... u just switch on the music and for 10 minutes u off the music and the sound is gone... dunno why but it works..

havent really ride in a G spec for this new Vios model. Used to drive G spec (first Gen) before, not much difference to my current J.
oic... they would indicate the wheel change, and as well helped to check the absorbers which is good~ thumbup.gif

my first 1k service cost me Rm110 for mineral oil change, and oil filter.
yeap, they give me back the mineral oil balance; for my first 1k service.

My sc use mineral oil from pump, not using bottle, wonder wats the difference between pump and bottle oil?
