Yea..i think that is avg for most of mpv 2.4...
Actually me & wifey have been using only mpv for daily ride almost 3years...first because not have much choices to buy a 2nd car...
Already bought myvi but sent to hometown for parent use...i m still rider tegar...haha
now after pC lauch & considering non of my car that i used more than 100k km mileage & hybrid 'free tax' end 2013...this the right time for us to have additional car...
My 04/09 MG 2.4 4WD currently just park at garage with mileage 91k km...so i can prolong the ownership haha...next to change is timing belt...but the meter is static cause everyday use pC...

My 2nd day with pC also bad experienced... U can see how other drivers esp bigger cc..lorry..trailer...treat small car like pC...
After overtake some cars at fast lane..they dont even think to give us a time to back at middle lane..tailgate us & beam somemore...
Then i change to the very left lane...shud be relax rite... But nooo...
I was horn & beam by trailer speed more than 90kph...force me to go to middle lane...cause they dont want to use a brake & change lane...
Dilemma...huhu

Wow cheer up bro. Same here too... but think the best is always metro bus. They just drive on their own way and always be fast and also block the road whenever they want when a customer comes around.

And make me accelerate beyond speed limit to 160kmph just to overtake some of this ppl and make my FC super low which i dont want to but for safety measure better left them behind. And AES is implement in Malaysia now. TT

Getting my peal white prius c in the next few days (i hope). What is a good tint for it?  Not too expensive, but keep out lots of heat.  How much should i spend for a decent tint? SA offered me cheap one RM900. Sorry, never bought tint before so not sure. Thanks.

Maybe can try those branded one. I saw in Groupon 3m cost RM750 last time.

Maybe can monitor from there.

Welcome! The tint could vary from RM200 to RM3000, Vcool is the best and also most expensive, there are others like aircool, sungard, wingard, 3M etc. You can find more opinion at
Car Tint - Lowyat forum. I use Agard, it is cheap and so far ok (i just tinted last Sat, still observing).

OK thanks. So worth tinting prius c or not?  Would like some tinting, not too dark though. Don't want to pay large sum but want a decent quality good price.

You should tint, no matter how cheap. My consideration is those windows smasher when we are in traffic jam. They won't pick a tinted car to smash and they know which car is tinted. I put the tint sticker on all windows to show them.

Yes, I am lame! biggrin.gif


Added on October 4, 2012, 9:02 amThis is my first full tank. Drove already 420km still got half tank of fuel. Very happy with the FC.

to aragongon,

Haha. me too. And i put on anti smash tint on side windows. Can't be more careful nowdays as alot of snatch thief break windows during jam. And never put any belonging and bag in ur PC .

My PC is full of toys from gf collection haha. ^^ . Been reading about the snatch thief case and very pity for those victim. If manage to see any.. dont worry.. the snatch thief is confirm will be ram by me ^^ . No offence as it happen to my close friend.

Hence anti smash tint come first and always remember lock ur PC when u in the car as there is no autolock.

to timeonce,

Agree to your points. My sister kena with her myvi at Kampung Pandan roundabout infront of traffic light and I hope it won't happened to my wife while she is driving my PC. They normally pick ladies' car.

You are right, never put any belonging and bag in our PC. I always put in boot. It is blessed we have the board covering our boot. Alza doesn't have it, people can just look inside from windows.

I was thinking of ram into the snatch thief also if i see any, good to know that no offence, but what about the damage of our car, can claim his insurance (hopefully he has insurance)? biggrin.gif

Security film is like a double edged sword, it can protect you but also can kill you. imagine if your car fall into the river or water or caught fire and door is unable to open, you will be difficult to escape because you can't break the glass.

Smaller car like our PC always kena bully on the road. Especially if they see that your car is quite new, then even worse. If your face is not garang, buy a fierce looking sunglasses. I felt the difference when putting on fierce sunglasses. Just stare at those who wants to cut q. The will "shrink" back... tongue.gif

I totally agree with aragongon, please go to take a better safe tint. Mine is Rhine Pro XD 5 and cost me RM1300. I din install any extra lock cos nowaday just tow ur car insist of go to stead ur car. So i spent more for glass tint for security reason.

haha if not mistaken. That is why our PC dont come with auto lock. Heard it will auto unlock if feel pressure is different.

But then. What i do is different approach. Anti smash on side window and tint heat and uv resistant on front and back mirror. So anything goes wrong. Escape from from the front or back by smashing the window. Although think it will be hard a bit.

And dont tint too thick. get those anti smash which will break after 4-5 hit by heavy object. So it give time for u to get off also. if front and back can't be smash ^^

On Eco Score screen, I usually score 4 or 5 bar on START, with a careful braking, I could score 4 or 5 bars also on STOP. However, I had never scored more than 3 bar on CRUISE.

How could I score more?

To timeonce & kiding.

Eventhough the iridium spark plug is damn expensive, just think about the comparison to a normal spark plug. How many times do you change a normal spark plug in a 100k mileage in order to get the best combustion for every gas burned. Well we only spend a bit more every 100k.

The PC horn really needs a make over. Thinking of getting it change soon, either go for waiDEE's or RM1's horn choice or maybe there are other option in the market.

Don't want to put the bag in the back seat. Will try and see how it goes then .....
