Hi Guys,

I will be doing my 5000km service this Friday.

I am now trying very hard to find the things to be fix for my Vios.
here is the list i have made:-
1. Engine belt noise when cold start or after long hours driving.
2. Both front Door cable rattle when loud speaker or close door.
3. Front window visor not sticking.
4. Rust at wheel hub & disc brake.
5. side mirror does not contract/retract at same speed.
6. readjust hand brake to tighter.
7. in car power port is loose. move around alot when trying to access it.
8.

Can anyone suggest more things that i can fix? please advice, i will check on my car with all the suggested.

Thanks all in advance.

Cheers.

you have any small small issue to add in also? i wanna make sure my service is done in this 5000km...

thanks for the info...

still can fix if the black plastic part not seen.... polish and buff it off.. perfect.

Good to hear this...

My front bumper already starting to show the dents and chip
too much highway run already... i think i need to sticker the whole front bumper ... if not later sure alot things to polish and repaint

Tomorrow finally car fix day... booked 8am and plan to drop it off with a note i prepared.. for the fixes...

hope that all is good after that. 8 items to get fix.

update you all after tomorrow's service. will go with the mineral oil for the 5k service.. and jump to full synthetic oil when 10k service... after that all synthetic all the way... wallet bleed like crasy. lol~

still waiting my insurance discount. SA said within 1 month i will get back the money. then i will go for the ScangaugeII and some tower bars... Hmmm~

Falken is cheaper .. but not so durable. but if u drive economically... can last quite long.
slow cornering, dun hard braking / accelerating.... the tires last 60,000km for my case with proton saga time...

tested with my gps... not good. gps showing 106km/h when the speedo showing 110km/h.. i think i will change to a bigger tyre when this sets run out.... 195 60 R15 is in the plan...

haha, yea, almost botak can say... rotate every 10,000km .... after 60,000km all 4 botak together... for me is better then the stock tire the saga give.

Haha, cos last time me also not much choice due to budget... better grip then the stock saga tires thou.....

all below is compared to new Vios:-
1. Belt adjusted... Service Adviser claim "the cable will expand abit after few km run, just tighten back to standardised tension will do. (will test it later back Alor Star)
2. Nothing done... (test with the mechanic no more rattle... some how miracle???)
3. Nothing done... (SA claim that it is used as sponge, not taped/glued.. so is expected to not sticking..)
4. DID!!!! ... (noticed a layer of paint on the place. no more rust at the hub... )
5. Nothing done... (SA said is compared to new VIOS, so is expected)
6. Nothing done... (SA said the tension is in spec, tighten more will cause the handbrake to drag/not release properly)
7. Nothing done... (all is same in all Vios, expect it to wobble, SA claim it is just 1 clip at the back holding the port.)
8. fabric on the seat, they just cut the extra treads... nothing much.
9. free car wash... (they actually make it more dirtier to my leather seat ).. have to clean it up myself.
10. eVoucher used... pay Rm65++ for mineral oil&gasket (not sure about why not discount Rm20.. expected price is below Rm80)

overall service satisfaction:-
the goods.
1. the SA willing to check everything I complant.
2. the rust part is FIXED!!

the bads.
1. free car wash is not good at all.
2. no ppl to send u to work, need call fren to pick me up to work.

next round 10,000km (RM323.50 with full syn oil)...
the SA said need do wheel alignment&balancing... RM50!! <-- this can reject or not? as i said i do outside?

Hi, I want to ask something...

1. engine clicking noice (spark plug tick sound maybe??)
I noticed that everytime after long journey... or a hot journey..
parked outside my car.. idiling... i can hear the engine ticking sound very very clearly... meaning very loud la... compare to when I start the engine cold... is this thing expected or not?

2. torque converter release
I also noticed that... but this does not always happen..
when in traffic light. i will put the car into 'N' to wait for the 160second.. sometimes longer/ shorted... but sudenly the car is like get a push from the torgue converter... and my car can drift for less then 50cm...
the feel is like some1 softly bang u from the back of the car... terkejut..

anyone getting issues as above??? please advice.

thanks.

Regards,
Popopi

HI,

I want to ask if you all kena this problem or not.

During slope climb. the engine will give out a noice. I suspect is the belt noise. cit cit cit cit... only during hill climb where I tekan pedal for more power.

Does not really hear when on straight road and tekan pedal for more power. eg: overtaking.

Go SC told them about this. they do something and noise is gone for only ONE DAY!! Next morning still the same. (40,000km and everytime go SC also they do same thing... X_X!)

Do you guys have any fix? or and idea what really is the problem?
