anyone facing problem with stock delivery on new Vios??

I'm having a nightmare here... booked the car in early September... until today also no news yet... kept delaying me... really pissed off.

i booked in early September... SA(from Medan Tuanku branch) lock it in on 01Oct.... promised Nov delivery... end up saying end of December delivery... made me speechless...

I'm about to cancel and make a transfer since Serdang Raya branch got ready and immediate stock for both White and Silver colour, J Spec...

Yesterday morning my SA called, and managed to give me a Brown J, deliver by this weekend.

If you guys wants quick car delivery, i would really suggesst go with UMW Motors; instead of those dealers(like mine). These direct UMW Motors do have better stock allocation, hence the faster delivery.

This Serdang Raya branch SA named Janet, damn good... she offered me Silver J, immediate stock if i agreed to transfer over. I would really buy from her if its not because of the hassle on loan transfer, booking cancellation, transfer of purchase car plate number...

However, finally my SA given me a definite answer whereby i'll get my car this weekend; which is a relieve.

It was a dramatic process whereby i pressed the SA kao kao last week, only to end with such scenario. Hence, morale of the story is... be a little bit fussy in order to get your car in short lead time.

Also, we can actually transfer the loan over(if its approved) to whichever branch that have immediate stock, if they could give you. I learnt this the hard way.

Hope this experience help.

one of my friend bought a previous gen Vios from Toyosu too... damn good service and promising.

Should have ordered from them...

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!

the "tok" sound upon depress brake is normal as what claimed by my SC yesterday; upon first 1k service. I've complaint to them but to no avail. Live with it.

different people might have different acceptance level in terms of cabin NVH. Personally i think Vios is really bad in this context.

how about if i do the wheel arch first?

I thought the brochure only indicated acoustic windscreen, nothing else?

My friend is driving G Limited, same poor NVH issue... Guess its the package...

Its called addiction...

Hahhahahahah... Just looking for the best result from the various options.

new Vios rear does have this Red Coloured fog lamp. It can be turn on via the stick on your steering; upon main headlights engaged. Not sure if stepping brake pedal would brighten the rear fog lamp or not.

yes...

there is this secondary rotary to turn on the rear fog lamp. Its only allowed when you have fully turn of your front headlights. I use it upon heavy rain.

notice the Foglamp indicator?

Yes, confirmed it have rear Foglamp. I'm driving J as well.

guys, just wanna check whether does it voids our Toyota manufacturer warranty if u change the current Headunit to aftermarket HU; example a Pioneer double DIN.

Does these aftermarkets all is plug and play for mass market car like Vios?

I'm currently struggling with the J spec HU; especially on changing FM channels..

Please kindly advise.

thank you.

my last 2 outstation trip to ipoh... one tank ~520km

My speed was around 120-140kmh...

Can I install the G spec HU nicely on the faceplate?

Found a good offer.

The faceplate looks abit different between G and J. J is completely 2din and G looks integrated. I wonder if I can install G fitly on my J housing faceplate.

Any advise on this?

Thank you.

anyone could give advise on this?

surprisingly mine still ok... it was under 1k ODO reading as well...

Vios is typical road car... its PCD 4x100

you would have tonnes of choices in the market.

our standard rims size:

PCD 4x100
15 inch(size) with 6.5JJ(width)

PCD is what Ulysee mentioned, Pitch Circle Diameter.

it determines the wheel nuts distance; whether it fits our ride or not.

find rims with 4x100 with max 7JJ i guess. as you mentioned before, 7.5JJ will hit the fender.

Happy rims hunting bro.

as long as your rims offset doesn't popped out from your wheel arch, its safe.

+42 is offset, referring to the rims nut hole distance to car body.
