Wow, in V2 ya. After going thru the top page. You got 2 spoiler for service center listing. Maybe you can change 1 to PC gathering venue and date. So members can view up coming events or talk about past events. Just a suggestion though.

Some info on the stock alloy wheels. It is 15x6.5J ET45.
user posted image

It looks like UMW put a different wheel on our cars. Based on my internet search, the PC in other market comes with wheels which have an offset of 40 instead of our 45mm offset. The wheel width elsewhere is only 5, ours are 6.5.

Tyre size is the same, wider wheel could be heavier so fuel consumption might be slightly higher. My concern about higher offset is the track could be narrower.

Home Kota Damansara to and fro office via NKVE>Federal>Section23 Shah Alam. Is Shah Alam lower than KD? I don't know, but there are up and down every where during the journey. 1 thing for sure is that outside temperature yesterday morning was 26C while evening 34C.
Used Eco mode

If you set the aircon to Auto, it will switch automatically between recirculating and outside air. To prevent that don't us auto.

According to the owner's manual, the spark plug is Denso FK16R-A8 and there is also a noticed to use only iridium -tipped spark plug. According to this Toyota link (http://www.toyotapartsandservice.com/pub/pdf/Common/SparkPlugs2013Chart_v1.pdf) this spark plug is already Iridium. So if it's already iridium, then why need to change so soon? Should last 100k km. I wonder if our local UMW did changed the spark plug to other type or not.

No, the recirculating and outside air will automatically change if you are on eco mode.
In normal mode, set to auto won't change the air recirculating mode to outside air or vice versa.

When you received your car usually the pressure is set high and feels like driving off road. Look at the side of the driver door and you would see the recommended tyre pressure. Then go up a bar/psi to find the sweet spot. Always check the pressure when the tyre is cold.

Anyone done antitrust to the under carriage? Need some review on it please. hmm.gif

BTW, congrats to timeonce & colinkit upon receiving your PC's. thumbup.gif

I've tried both permanon and carpro reload. Based on my experience, carpro reload last longer than permanon. To me I feel that permanon last only less than a week (although it claims to last months). Carpro reload last about 2 weeks (i think it claims to last longer). As for dirt washing off easily with water spray by hose, carpro reload peforms much better than permanon. This is just my personal experience and opinion in using the 2 products. No commission received and no harm intended. biggrin.gif

Timeonce, I agree with you on the seat.The seat colours is too light and can soil easily. Even putting my baby car seat can soil it. I might be getting a normal seat cover where you put ontop of the seat (something like Coolmax).

I just tried fitting an existing light weight rim from my other car. The original rim is still around.

Your tyre selection with the stock rim won't be any problem, however going to 65 profile tyre from original 60 profile will effect your speed and odo reading.

That is exactly what I want, given that the speedo is already too fast on stock tyre, by upsizing the tyre, I can bring back the speed closer to "actual" speed which I think give wrong ODO reading as well.

If I'm not wrong, the original offset of the stock rim should be +45

There are alot of coating available in the market, but most don't last, or coat already cannot wax, have to use special car shampoo to wash, else will remove the coat, which I think quite troublesome.

For cheapest best effect is to wash ur car clean, get some good wax and apply a few layers. Will stay for mths and if it's off, u can do it again.

My current car have not been wash for 3 mths, the dust and stain is thick, but if I wipe it, it will still be shiny.

I think the +40 offset should be steel rims, I might be wrong.

Hi bro, i did gzox glass coat and am really satisfied with it. Dirt washes off easily. My car is white, so i cant stand it when it gets dirty..a bit pricy but i think its good...wanted to do sierra glow..but based on others feedback it doesn't last long...but i suggest you do some research first before you commit...hope this helps.

Keep it clean by washing everyday. No lar kidding only  tongue.gif. I saw a product called Permanon. It is suppose to help dirt not to bond to the car so easily. Personally, I haven't tried it.

i use permanon for my orange C .. mine is from WAXSON cost rm168 . this product u have to use according to their method for long last .. mine after the first apply can last for 1 month and then just wash and reapply again . first application took me about 2 hours the following only need 30 minutes .. and yes after the apllication less dirt on the car and weekly washing car become easier ..

Thanks skng74 ,

wow.. will try the ultimate shine. ^^ I clock more than 700km in 3 days.. and its very reliable and save fuel. Manage to get 27.6km/l for my best record temporary. Will try to boost it further more ^^

For wind noise its acceptable for me. Think is because the engine is too silent compare to normal car that when it start to rev and go on high speed you can hear other sound. Bet other car is also same but their engine noise override other noise.

Just one scary thing about PC. When you do / parking. ^^ and u can't see car behind.. its pretty dangerous esp a big MPV park beside u and block other ppl view on ur car reversing ^^ .

Saw a silver PC near WD today. ^^ Does it belong to any member of LYN ^^ . As i drove side by side till the junction ^^


Added on September 17, 2012, 9:35 pmFor FC, i think best way is drive it normally and u get better FC ^^ . Eco game is so tempting to play each day and mountain road is fun as well in PC. Wonder why ppl say the handling is no good when it turn to where u want the tires and car to be . As sharp corner is a joy in PC at least for me. ^^ As maintain 80kmph in and out of corner and the same speed all throughout highway.

agreed with u bro.. the sound compare to others car is the engine sound which cover all the wind noise .. same problem with mine when reversing parking cool2.gif i try onec driving at 140km/H and still getting 21.5km/L on the 5 minutes consumption .. handling is above vios less comfort then altis for me ..

Mine comes with the optional Toyota DVD player. Without the guided line it will be tricky at first but you'll get use to it after awhile. The only time the camera is really helpful when parking at tight spot and when you cant see anything behind. biggrin.gif

Just test drive this Prius C and Vios in Bukit Jalil on Sunday. I must say the Prius C is miles better than Vios. Just want to ask some questions about this car from you ppl who are alredi driving it:

1) There's 3 modes of driving with this car. What happens if 1 mode spoil?
2) How do you know which mode to drive when in Klang Valley area or outstation?
3) Spare Tyre leaking water. What is that about?

to ericpires,

1) One mode spoil ah.. not sure. But mostly u can drive at normal mode is more than enough. Can go back to Toyota and service anytime. My sister Prius got Power, Eco and EV mode. So far no problem with mode switching

2) See which one you prefer. I would recommend normal mode always as seem eco mode will map your throttle down alot and you need to press alot when you need to drive faster.

3) Meaning got water in the spare tires compartment. Not all PC had this problem. But think UMW Toyota will sort it out as still in warranty.

I guess impossible it will spoil in a single mode, all modes are same ECU control.

I always park outside & wash my car, so far my car don't have water in spare tires compartment. icon_idea.gif

Yup. I also got the DVD-AVN and i found that the reverse camera without guideline is a bit tricky. My camera shows that is still quite far but actually it is already very close. Sometimes after parking my car, i feel that i parked too close to the car behind. Sometimes afraid the car behind can hit me if the driver not skillful enough when driving out. :-p

The issue of unpoweredness is very subjective. I always think it depends on the vehicle u hv driven before this ride. If u drive a 1.8/2.0l petrol car before this, u'll sure feel this is unpowered.

I believe PC design to save fuel, so the throttle is less sensitive to avoid sudden acceleration & give more control on pedal.

If you really need the power, then just press harder till the power mode in ECO display. Then you will feel the real power of PC. Remember PC 0-100km/h only 10+sec.

Love this colour but not mentioned inside the brochure when we made the booking.

the brochure was printed way back before they launch the car early this yr, that's why didn't have this but u can see the color mention on the price list sheet. i booked in March and only get the car in late June. according to the SA, it was the 1st batch in malaysia.

so far i only saw 5 other aqua mica

I think Yellow is taxi model color.

The Amcorp Mall opposite A&W also lot of carpark.
If want large playground, cyberjaya/Putrajaya is cool too.

Thanks timeonce for your answers. Very informative indeed.

Want to ask u guys, when u drive your Prius C on the highway, would it feel underpowered? Like, need to `tekan` a lot for it to move?
*
Because PC using E-CVT and E-Throttle, the smooth make you feel underpower, if u drive honda city v-tec CVT 7 speed before , then will feel the same thing, and the wide body+low downforced aerodynamics design+firm suspension, drive till 120km/h still feel very very slow, for CVT car, if we want sudden speed up in highway ,have to tekan pedal at least half or full smile.gif unless we driving nissan teana 250v XCVT biggrin.gif
If really want enjoy PC power, Don't use ECO SCORE display, the eco -power zone bar always make us no brave to tekan pedal , switch to ENERGY MOMITOR display more enjoy and aggressive rclxms.gif

my best advise, no need think so much. there will never be one location that everyone can go, i organise a lot of gathering de. fb prius club alrd into its 8th or 9th TT session liao.

hold a first one somewhere.

then a second, then third. ppl will come one.

dun mix TT session wif photoshoot.

easy thing to do, gather at hiway rest stop like kesas Awan besar. plenty of parking, can minum teh also.
central PJ can goto sea park. KL can go another place. putrajaya good for foto but its definitely out of way for most ppl.

so timeonce, since u TS pls have the honours of arranging the first TT.

So when i change from 65 to 55, will PC notice it is less speed while the tyre is spining the same?

Wider tyres give better handling, but worse FC. How to choose a less noisy tyre? bigger rim?

Theoretically in 100m as example..ofcourse 65 tyre will reach 1st than 55tyre... But practically PC will try to change its behaviour to adopt new setting and we will less noticed... Speed same but more spin...

To better result...change together with rims..then maybe 55 or even 50 with 16' will behave like oem...plus we can put wider tyre...

Can check some website to calculate suitable rims & tyres to replace oem spec...

Speed on speedo will maintain when u change different out diameter tyre, FC will look good if you change to a smaller diameter but you are actually traveling lesser distance which means bad real world FC, vice versa if you use bigger diameter tyre. Tested and proven on my car.

I will be changing my tire to XM2 185/65/R15, I think it's better to have larger diameter as our speedo is already slower than real world speed, just use your GPS to prove it.

I believe Prius c if driven gently, the tyre can last you at least 60k to 80k. My good year thread wear 240 is still like new after 40k km.

In term of tyre, I find that the stock tyre is lacking grip as the chasis is quite stable for high speed cornering.

I assume this isn't done by Toyota right? If so, wouldn't it void your warranty since it involved cable cutting?

Yes i did at GLS Auto USJ7... No need to worry much about warranty..i dont think it will void the whole car warranty.. What if the guys who bought PC without multimedia system when they want to install it themself outside? I believe with the product n brand...good product n brand will only have few problem but not major...although i dont have experience with toyota... But with 5years no problem with honda...and almost 3years with mitsubishi recond absolute no warranty..the car actually 8years old...i didnt face any kind major defect...
My point is i just add or enhanced security features...not modifying with fancy things...
Otherwise u can try plug n play device...

It will be too much for RM250 just to touch up. Last time my car been scratch from the side, front to back. To repaint 4 piece (2 door & front & back part) only cost me RM600 = RM150 per piece.

Just a small touch up should not cost more then RM150.

Seen it not really visible, just buy any pearl white DIY touch up paint will do. Save money for other stuff.

Did any one copy a DiVX file into pen drive/USB and play through his/her Toyota DVD-AVN? Or the player only can play DVD disc?

DiVX file only can be played on the DVD/CD, not USB. I converted some bluray concert to xvid format, no problem to play it on the DVD-AVN.

Shouldnt spoilt.. but what is ur defination spoilt? Battery can't charge anymore or leaking ?

If spoilt also its battery ko. meaning time to change battery. But as far as i know the only prius change battery is a taxi which clock more than 400,000km. So should be reliable enough for you to change to next car first.



Time to go for first service. Any sc open on sat ? And good sc recommend ?

Added on September 21, 2012, 5:39 amHi all.

This is first time i'm playing with GPS device and learning how to do so in my PC. As normally i use google map more.

Anyone use Malsing map here and any comment on how to use it and etc ?

Im using Malsing + MSM map together ... ^^ .

Thinking of compiling best map and upload to internet so everyone just copy and paste to their SD card and on the go only ^^

The efficiency also positively impacts your wallet. In those six weeks, I travelled a total of 1,785 km and consumed 361.4 kilowatts (kWh) of electricity. Using the highest TNB tariff bracket for domestic homes, which is 45.4 sen per kWh, I spent RM164.08.


thats about 20.7km/L given 1.90 per litre for petrol equivalent. i thought ev was much better? of course i believe the 361kwh uses much less fossil fuel than what our cars are drinking now.

Re-hi everyone, back from a brief hiatus. I'm glad to see we've reached v2 now, it's not however a surprise since this car is great smile.gif
Did the map update cos I wanted the freebie injector cleaner lol, gonna revert to malsing/malfree again. Another thing I should mention is that I asked whether they will wipe the card/erase trip log & favourites and I was told yes - however upon getting the card back it was all back in there. And no, the updated map isn't as updated as malsing/malfree, if I remember correctly it's like msm 2011.40 heh. No harm though, you should just back up your current one (or just reinstall the maps after they 'update') and just get your freebie tongue.gif
Haven't had time reading the last half of v1, but I did skim over v2 and I read about the water in the spare tire issue, I'll have to check mine for that. Also about the reverse cam, yeah it can be awkward at first but you get used to it, I usually just keep going when it beeps until just before the flatline beep sound [and of course being careful]. I'm much more worried about others hitting my car than the other way around. I have some odd new scratches on my car, I have no idea how they got there seeing as I haven't been using my car as much and it's always been in my view or at home [was using a diff car cos I baby this car]. The only thing I can surmise is a cat or someone who came to my house inadvertantly doing it but doubtful of that. I did drive it in the mud and rain though [and I doubt it can do that too but who knows]. I only noticed the morning after when I went to wash it. It's like random lightly scratched vertical lines above my front left tire. To be honest it doesn't look like a person could have done it, but anyway it's nothing meguiars scratchx/swirlx couldn't hide thankfully. What scratched it will remain a mystery of course.
On my way back home from service centre [car actually didn't need a service since it didn't reach mileage but I went anyway because of their sms and I wasn't sure what their policy regarding 'whichever comes first' when it came to date/mileage - the SA told me to just do it on mileage and it's fine and he rescheduled me] I was listening to the radio and they were promoting the prius c hehe. As I've noticed from the threads more & more people are getting it, but also in general, looks like popularity is increasing smile.gif

Not impressive at all, considering that the cost of the car is expected to be much higher than that of a hybrid

i checked up some internet info that says 1kwh uses 0.0016 barrels (42 gallon/barrel) of residual fuel oil. so the leaf uses 361kwh ~ 92 litres to travel the 1785 km. sounds wrong to me, maybe i am looking at a wrong source.

This website, http://www.unitjuggler.com/convert-energy-...boe-to-kWh.html, says 1kwh = 0.0006142. So 361kwh ~ 35l to travel the 1785km or ~ 51km/l. thumbup.gif

sounds more sensible that way.
but the cost to end user at the moment is rm164. the savings is to the oil not to user.

Even if the savings is to user, I doubt the price of the Leaf will be worth it. My guess the price would be between 150-200k. So, hybrids at the moment will still be the more sensible choice.

In the letter it says half an hour but honestly it should be just a few minutes since it's only copying over a map file. Basically about the same if you do it yourself. I think they only say half an hour in case they may be a little busy.
Mine was in actuality a few minutes but I was there longer because of the atrocious parking at UMW here lol, security kept bugging me to move my car. Also I have to commend the SC person for being very courteous, helpful and polite (my usual SC had an emergency off and I misread the counter number at the front display cos of the way it was written and ended up on the wrong counter but they said it was fine).

Just emptied my 1st full tank after clocking 650+km.
Updated my map to malfreemaps size of 100+MB. Malsing only abt 50+MB. Malfree has POI's for speedtraps and redlight camera. Just copy them into the POI folder. However malfree doesn't have junction view but malsing have.

Also installed the OBD autolock bought fr a forumer here. Will autolock when speed is 4-5kmh. Will unlock when power off. Used for nearly 2 weeks no. So far so good.

Will wash my car tomorrow if the weather is fine. I DIY the detailing the first day i drove my pc back. Wash, clay, polish, wash, seal. Waxed internal too.

For tint i went with local brand (can't remember name ord) 6 mil. Only paid 800. Satisfied with what i paid for.

Now planning for visor and boot tray.

Won't b able to join the TT cos it's a bit too far for me sad.gif

Added on September 22, 2012, 11:26 amJust done my first 1k service at Distinctive Model, Sg Buloh. A cosy place for servicing your PC, IMHO. Was so careful during the first 1k and ask whether PC requires "running-in", and guess...the SA said modern cars nowadays dont really require running-in. Dunno la whether that's true...anyway, now can fly PC beyond 100kmh oledi :-)

(2) I live near the toll gate. There is no need to go through any traffic light when I go to office.

Me too. City driving to work took consume like 7.5km/l as super jam in KL as i work near Jalan Tun Razak.

The only time drive fast was in highway . That is cause trailing buses and truck hence need to speed up. Normally i drive within 90 kmph also.


Anyone in slump after driving PC ? As after u drive pc u change to manual car and seem it hard to drive manual car already esp on the braking part.

Already 2000km+++... Even bfore 1k service speed up 120kph..SA said drive like normal car & no need running in...

From my observation..based on PC & my mpv...we can get good FC if maintain traveling 100-120kph... If 60-90kph but with highly traffic jam..normally 19++km/L... but good enough..my mpv is 7.8km/L...huhu
Actually my wife used PC daily between SJ & SA...and when use it at nights n weekend for long run/distance..so the fc increase to 21km/L...

Anybody converted to HID? Saw one Osram set selling online for abt RM400. Never have experience in HID conversion. Anybody can share? Thanks.

Still waiting for Ultraracing bars but since PC comes with VSC, not sure if the bars can cause any problem since I read that uneven loading and uneven tire pressure will affect VSC.

Even if the savings is to user, I doubt the price of the Leaf will be worth it. My guess the price would be between 150-200k. So, hybrids at the moment will still be the more sensible choice.
*
Based on my study, a single charge on Leaf can mostly go 200km, so how can we go from KL to JB/Penang? Have to spend overnight somewhere and charge the car?

Besides, the electricity is so expensive now, i wonder is it worthy? End up additional RM300 in the electricity bill, then it is same as petrol.

Considering Malaysia power plants also using gas and petrol, Leaf end up still burn petrol/gas, and during the enegry conversion on Leaf's "petrol/gas (power plant) --> electricity --> battery (car) --> the wheel" compared to normal car's "petrol (engine) --> the wheel direct", there must be more energy lose during conversion on Leaf, so does it really environmental friendly?

After driving the PC for close to a month, I found out that how good the FC can be depends a lot on road terrain & traffic more than one's driving style. Though I've trips which are able to give me 26-29km/l, overall per tank basis the avg is 23km/l.

the sad thing is, i checked some electricity tariffs worldwide on wikipedia and we are not exactly expensive, plenty of countries more expensive than us incl developed nations. we are at about USD0.14, i see a lot places over USD0.20 also

this is not a good future for plug in ev at the moment.

Mine is white. I wax once in 2 months, wipe n vacuum once in 2weeks. My advice is that we should treat it as a tool for transportation rather than spending too much time in taking care or we become a slave to the car. Not much difference in second value at the end of the day.

Safety first, others second!

PC has 7 airbags, a full hybrid

HI has 2, a mild hybrid

Mild hybrid is supposed to be a cheap car, because the cost of production is much lower than that of a full hybrid car. However, it is being sold in Malaysia at about the same proce as full hbrid car because most of the consumers here are unaware of this.

Please refer to this link:

to engah,

Yup. Actually i like US version of PC where the heated seat and softtex leather. Seem nice. And the moon roof and add 2 more airbag. And their DVDAVN is better than us also and add 2 more option in display to calculate difference in price of fuel.

But then. Think we got our PC cheapest as no excise duty but have AP + Sales tax. If not.. RM200k... which i will think twice first as can get Camry, Sonata or K5 at that range. Even mondeo and Passat CC is available at that price.

For RM97k. its a steal i guess at least for us Malaysian. Even Sg have their PC around RM270k according to one of our forummer which buy a PC in SG.



To Rolland, Even i love PC alot. I suggest test drive all the car first. But if u ask me.. Honda and Toyota use different tech. Do note that insight at traffic light will off engine and you have zero air con. ^^ . From outside the Insight may look bigger. But do put some luggage inside and u feel the difference.

Downside of PC is behins seat best is 2 person only. 3 person and the person sitting in the middle will have their xxx sour after one hour of drive. Proven and tested d ^^ .

I guess the closest US version to ours is the C3 which cost ard USD22K, i.e. ~RM68K (@3.10). Quite near to our price before UMW's profit & sales tax.

If want to feel short changed comparing dollar to dollar would be even worst cry.gif. Fresh grad in US paid 3K can easily afford this car at 22K.

you need to test for urself on the features you want - comfort, power, kit level, fuel consumption, what is it that is most important to u

insight has been around for a while alrd in the market, pc is fresh out of the 2012 oven. hybrid synergy drive is diff tech than honda's ima resulting in significant FC difference.

today i take the PC on my work route.
No AC (hot!).
No radio.
40 km route with about 36km of highway (stretches of 28km,3km,5km or so, not many flat straights)
mostly hover at 60-70kmh and got about 50% ev usage.

bestest effort for me, 33.1km/L

no way i can mantain this for one tank, cos the way home is afternoon sun and if no AC sure dieded one.

Yup. Actually i like US version of PC where the heated seat and softtex leather. Seem nice. And the moon roof and add 2 more airbag. And their DVDAVN is better than us also and add 2 more option in display to calculate difference in price of fuel.

But then. Think we got our PC cheapest as no excise duty but have AP + Sales tax. If not.. RM200k... which i will think twice first as can get Camry, Sonata or K5 at that range. Even mondeo and Passat CC is available at that price.

For RM97k. its  a steal i guess at least for us Malaysian. Even Sg have their PC around RM270k according to one of our forummer which buy a PC in SG.
To Rolland, Even i love PC alot. I suggest test drive all the car first. But if u ask me.. Honda and Toyota use different tech. Do note that insight at traffic light will off engine and you have zero air con. ^^ . From outside the Insight may look bigger. But do put some luggage inside and u feel the difference.

Downside of PC is behins seat best is 2 person only. 3 person and the person sitting in the middle will have their xxx sour after one hour of drive. Proven and tested d ^^ .

I saw the Kastam paper of my PC last weekend. It is RM59093 for car and RM3300 shipment. There is another RM13300 charge which i don't understand, the rest is UMW Toyota profit.

My SA told me if Camry does not have import tax and excise duty, it gonna be same price as PC. I wonder if he is bluffing me.


Added on September 25, 2012, 10:33 amGuys, when you pick up the car, does your SA/ Toyota branch gave you a briefing how to use the car, e.g. display panel, start button, car lock system, maintenance, tire pressure etc.?

Yup Camry and PC is almost same price in USA ^^. But my bet is on PC ^^ . More high tech

today i take the PC on my work route.
No AC (hot!).
No radio.
40 km route with about 36km of highway (stretches of 28km,3km,5km or so, not many flat straights)
mostly hover at 60-70kmh and got about 50% ev usage.

bestest effort for me, 33.1km/L

no way i can mantain this for one tank, cos the way home is afternoon sun and if no AC sure dieded one.

My only comment is that you started your journey too late. If you start 1 hr earlier, ie 7.15am, you will probably achieve a better result

If outside temp is 36C, there is no difference in setting anything below 26C.
Never tried setting anything higher than 28 (when outside was 37C). Normally 25.5C

Mine is white. I wax once in 2 months, wipe n vacuum once in 2weeks. My advice is that we should treat it as a tool for transportation rather than spending too much time in taking care or we become a slave to the car. Not much difference in second value at the end of the day.
OH.....that easy..?!!

Hi handsome boys and pretty girls, thanks for the reply.

i dun think its hot target considering its quite expensive in the region and as a city car not hugely popular also, its still new car and most ppl will be servicing in official toyota channel for the next few yrs.

Can't get used to the brake and pedal. Need to take some time. First trip about 30km, managed to reach 21km/l only.

Amazed by the way to lock and unlock the car.

Toyota upgrade the radio specs, I got bluetooth without extra cost!!

Tested last night, can play songs from my mobile phone, pick up and make call, the radio has its own contact list (can sync with the phone), speed dialing etc.

Next thing to try: play movie with my phone while stuck at traffic jam, and the bluetooth player will give me a car theatre system (it would be best with galaxy tab/ipad). rclxms.gif

Be patient, you will have it soon. Coz not everyone can get their loan approved.

If you can't wait, forfiet that RM 80, get back RM720 of your booking fee, go other show room ask for ready stock. They will have ready stock, coz ppl can't get loan.

I booked mine in July, was told I have to wait till Oct, but get the call last week due to ppl loan rejected, then have to rush all the process these few days coz the cheras show room wanna get the car sold before October. Can you imagine I get the car while I haven't signed my loan agreement? lol

As a gift of patient, you will get radio with bluetooth (if you not going for the DVD one). I am damn happy with it.

I actually planning to do so, I had even bought the cable.

By the way, I found a WEIRD situation:

when i finish my journey, my battery has about 5 to 7 bar of power level, then i just off my car, lock and leave . Later when i come back to start it (less than 2 hour), the battery has 3 bar left, can't even start EV mode as low battery warning is given.

Did anyone of you experience that? Is it normal?

How come your original player different from mine one? Mine one still same as the hilux one.. not same as your current radio because mine one dont have bluetooth to handle calling and receive call functions.

My accessory man said Toyota upgrade their radio this month, too many bluetooth radio outside. Again, I didn't top up any money!


Added on September 28, 2012, 1:45 pmJust read a bit on LYN Insight, they are excited when they reach 20km/l. Normal drive during these few days I also can get 24km/l, Prius C is a good buy.

Now learning to reach 27km/l, then 30km/l, 32km/l, hopefully can achieve god level of 35km/l in the records.

Chill lah Bro. we can't control what their comments. But 100% for sure, Honda IMA is Mild Hybrid which is lower cost to build, while Toyota HSD is full hybrid with better technology & larger battery.

The big draw back for Honda IMA is the aircon will shut off together with engine off. That is the main reason for me turn away from Honda.

Although Toyota interior design is suck, but I still enjoy the ride with it.

^^.. Cheer up bro. I think maybe we PC owner is more humble. ^^ .

I think time will tell and more case of battery failure for Honda will come out soon. As i see alot of case with IMA . But then.. best not to bash.

All hybrid is good. Just Toyota and Honda use different tech ^^ . And most driver for PC is humble and low profile. Unlike.. you know ... ^^

No comment. Have a great weekend all.

Yup.. now engah is my target haha ^^ .

Should we break enginer after 1k service to go more than 120kmph like normal car ?

the rating for Honda hybrid is about 44mpg in US, which they are being sued for becos consumer find it barely achievable. thats about 19 kml. I guess 20 is possible with some hypermiling method used. but to get 600+ km on rm60 is quite tall, u probably need to drive entire tank with ac off.

in any case, most of the H hybrids i see all tekan accel like no trmw one. wonder why they even chosed the hybrid.

I tot Prius C is advance enough i just treat it like my previous Wira. Didn't know need to special care while still under 1000km mileage. Hope no tear out/damage done on the engine. Have to admit that PC is so stable and quiet which is very tempting to "tekan accel like no trmw one". biggrin.gif

ya ya i know only that they dont even agree on the terms mild hybrid and full hybrid .. saying nothing difference at all

ya our interior is not as nice as the H but i buy hybrid bcos i want to drive hybrid not interested on fancy interior ..

VEY99 .. i also suprise when some of the H hybrid say to achieve 18 - 20km/L is difficult while some say easyly can achieved 25-27km/L on highway and say our average 20-21km/L is very low compare to their and some more their IMA EV can run even at speed of 110km/H but need some skill ??

I was charged RM50 bucks for the changes...considering the machine cost more than 20k that's fine!

Hi guys,
I just did my 1st service last saturday. The oil change was fast but waited very long for the car to be washed. Maybe I'll skip the washing next time.

I just noticed something today. When we look from the rear, the left side suspension spring can be seen but the right side spring is covered up by a cover. Is this normal or did I just loose a spring cover after my 1st service. I didn't noticed this until this morning.


Added on October 1, 2012, 8:21 amJust checked for some pictures online. Apparently only one side got spring cover. Maybe it is to protect from exhaust pipe heat. But with one side exposed and one side covered, it just looked a bit strange.

IR98% is very high. But other than putting IR and UV, some manufacturer also put total heat rejection. This is usually around 53-66% only (66% costing around RM2k). I think this has to do with the 3 mode of heat transfer: conduction, convection, and radiation. IR is only for radiation. However, the glass will still conduct heat to the tint film (conduction) and this is usually very high transfer rate. Since tint film usually contain metallic compound, conduction heat transfer will be high. From there the film itself will radiate and convect heat into the car.

Nearest to where you stay or work should be something to consider first. Then the SA who will serve you, all back to sales after service. I guess

There are many criteria. Most of the basic services are the same. May be some give more freebies than the others, better environment, etc.

I went to Jalan Sungai Buloh SC twice. The staff there is quite polite. The SC serves free-flow of nasi lemak, kuih, coffeee, Milo if you go in the morning. Do not know about other times. They gave me an umbrella during my second service, not the first one. If you go on Saturday, my advise is to skip the free car wash as you will probably need to wait for 2 hours after the 40min car service (total about 3hr wait). Not worth waiting.

Huper Optik and 3M are a few tint manufacturers certified by NFRC (http://www.nfrc.org/). For automotive range, the best total heat rejection is only in the range of 50-60% depending on VLT.

Our JPJ rule on VLT:
» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «


3M:

That's why every time I went through toll, I choose the furthest toll at the left, normally it has shorter queue. And after the toll, i have space to slowly accelerate without blocking others. I accelerate to 60kmh with EV mode then continue with engine. Then I score 90 for accelerating. lol It is a way to train patience also. biggrin.gif

IMHO, the trick isn't so much on the driving style but distance traveled and also road terrain. Recently I tried 2 different routes to the same destination. The slightly longer distance route gave me much better FC (24+ vs. 29+) but of course I'm not saying all longer distance will give better FC.

Hello all PC owners,

I dun own one but my wife just got hers on Saturday. She's not the forum type of person, so here I am on her behalf.

Color: Aqua Blue
Location: Penang Island.
Tinting Option: Chose a 8mil security tint with 98% IR rejection, 45% light transmissivity. Front windshield, I can't remember what it was. UMW Toyota charges RM1400. Tinting done by SPEED in Jelutong.
Head Unit: Stock OEM Pioneer with Bluetooth
Booking: Early April and collected the car End September.

The first thing I like to change is the horn cos it sounds lame as it uses only 1 horn. But to access it, I dun think my wife will allow me to remove the top panel.

For myself, I own a Corolla SEG and has been with me for 16 years. It's still in very good condition, giving me 15 to 16km/L with a manual tranny.

Yeah, my wife has the 1.3GLi 1999 model with manual tranny and she got it as a used car. She sold it off to get the PC.

Agree, the SEG is one of the well built car from Toyota with a lively engine response. At one time, the car was in poor condition due to using fake iridium NGK plugs and almost dead plug cables which made the engine kind of harsh and lack of power, and yet it still out run a Civic 2.0 Vtec from the traffic light. It wasn't my day that morning when I saw the Civic was in the wrong lane (right turning lane) and had the intention to squeeze rudely into my lane when the lights go green. There was also a VW beetle on my left which also tries to outrun all of us but of course it wasn't as quick as the Civic or the lamed SEG. smile.gif

Beware of imitation Iridium plugs, which is sold quite rampantly. I got a fake NGK which became too HOT and causes the engine to ping under load. It was so hot that no deposits/residue was found on the ceramic, a pure white clean ceramic. And I thought my car was running too lean, and caused me to look for vacuum leaks. Took me a while to figure out it was the fake plugs. SEG is now with the old genuine NGK iridiums, and lately blasted the intake valve deposits with water treament, the car now is like what is was suppose to be. Lesson learned, never neglect the car.

BTW, I noticed the 96-97 model SEG model was used in the Service Manual diagram in the Rust prevention chapter of the PC. It's legacy still lives on. smile.gif


Added on October 3, 2012, 10:24 amI forgot, let me contribute a little info on the PC.

It uses the spark plug from Denso, FK16r-a8. Info on this is hard to get in Google but I found that the "F" means Iridium. There is also a "S" which I think has a longer lifespan and also Iridium. "K" means 14mm thread size. Gap is 0.8mm. I've told my wife to reject any plug changes from UMW SC for at least 100k km in her schedules services.

It would not be compatible with IK16 as this uses the gap of 1.1mm. The older Prius that uses the 1.5L engine (which the PC also uses) recommends the IK16. I.e, IK16 not to be used in PC.

Thanks for the welcome timeonce. If it is Iridium, then it should be 100k km. I have checked my NGK Iridium (the real thing) at 80k km and the iridium tip is worn some and it appears to be at an angle (no longer a flat surface at the very tip). Ground electrodes are still ok, although no longer have the sharp edges. The gap appears to have grown, but I knock the ground electrode to close up the gap.

Also, on a low mileage (less than 10k km) fake NGK iridium, the so called iridium electrode already worn with the sharp angle on the tip. But the main issue with this fake plug is the heat dissipation. I think they make one plug but label it as different colder plugs. So for mine, it is BKR6EIX but I think it is really a '5' rather than a '6'. Perhaps cars that uses the '5' won't notice any pinging. But cars that needs a '7' would really feel the pinging and probably cause severe meltdown of the electrodes and eventually destroy the engine. I was just lucky that it didn't destroy the engine.

Sad to hear that there are owners of PC that is so inconsiderate. For me, expected lah from Civic Vtec, most probably impatient YUPPY people would own it.

Hello all PC owners,

I dun own one but my wife just got hers on Saturday.  She's not the forum type of person, so here I am on her behalf.

Color: Aqua Blue
Location: Penang Island.
Tinting Option: Chose a 8mil security tint with 98% IR rejection, 45% light transmissivity.  Front windshield, I can't remember what it was.  UMW Toyota charges RM1400.  Tinting done by SPEED in Jelutong.
Head Unit: Stock OEM Pioneer with Bluetooth
Booking: Early April and collected the car End September.

The first thing I like to change is the horn cos it sounds lame as it uses only 1 horn.  But to access it, I dun think my wife will allow me to remove the top panel.

For myself, I own a Corolla SEG and has been with me for 16 years.  It's still in very good condition, giving me 15 to 16km/L with a manual tranny.

mine also seg 1.6 auto change to PC for my wife .. my previous seg only can get 200km for rm 50 cry.gif .. daily drive not more then 30km a lot of turn and short road .. on highway the FC is normal rm50 for 300-350km .. thumbup.gif

Actually you can turn off the air recirculation function off before you turn off your engine. This will allow hot air to escape, thus reducing the heat and also smell in the car

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

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).

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

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

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.

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.

Agree, BTW, our PC use engine less, the spark can even last longer.
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.

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.

I guess the replacement will not so soon & the lithium ion cost are higher. Toyota will replace Prius battery 1st then only our PC. Maybe 2-3 years time.

hi morning all.

First time hit 30.3km/l for 13.8km journey. But then play cheat as off aircon and use only headlight and radio ^^ .

Seem aircon use quite some gas from PC as i average 28km/l with aircon and gps switch on ^^ .

Think need to accelerate more and cruise at high speed rather maintaining 60 - 80kmph. Seem 90kmph to 100kmph is most fuel efficient. ^^

Forgot to add. Most importantly, change the HORN Fuse to 15A as this red Hella horn sucks up 12A per pair. Your stock 10A fuse will blow.

My bike's fuse was changed to 15A, and no issues except that when the engine is off, the sound is very soft. Car battery has more Amp capacity, that would not be a problem.

When the engine is on, the voltage system would rise up to 14V, which causes the Hella horn to use LESS current, about 10+ Amps.

I believe the horn cable will not hold up long if you were to blast your horn for extended period of time even with 15Amp fuse.

Bro...no matter how high FC you achieved...in total you refuel petrol after 600++km...which mean you refuel back for 30-33L out of 36L tank... As i said avg we get is 20++km/L...

Otherwise...did anyone manage to get more than 700km with fulltank..??! or 900++km...then i need to learn from them...

Bro waiDEE and other PC owners, as per my observation using the PC. 1st time fill up full tank of petrol on 3/9/12 (paid by the salesman), manage to get 700++km. 2nd time fill up RM60 petrol on 9/9/12, manage to get 650++km. 3rd time time fill up RM60 petrol on 16/9/12, manage to get 650++km. And every time the petrol indicator blinks, I will put in RM60 worth of petrol and the mileage I get 650++km. So far I've been refueling every Sunday or once a week. I drive the PC like a normal car and set the eco mode on all the time. Overall still better than my old car. thumbup.gif

Normally I pump 20L fuel and I can get around 450KM, so If I pump full tank, I can get 800+km for sure.

2 things you have take into consideration bro.

1. Self monitoring - 1 time charge
2. Aided monitoring - recurring charge

Back to your question, I'd say go for cobra connex. But there will be a yearly fee imposed.

Haha...cannot calculate like that la bro... 1st half fuel indicator did not equivalent to half tank your petrol... Full tank consist of fuel, air n pressure...

I would prefer gsm/sms alarm... U pay about rm1600 for installation... Register your sub account to get one simcard n put at the alarm... U will get notification each time your car trigger alarm...you just pay monthly bill about rm6...

Furthermore...u can set to lock the car if you forgot...

if u drive yr pc more gender, u should able to get so. i stayed in kl and most of the time i drive 60kmh-90kmh.

last week i travel in highway, drove 110kmh, petrol consumption much more, 730km for one full tank.

i notice after my second service, my consumption drop much, not sure what they adjusted on my car, i found the brake abit different already... i think that is the caused, right now still monitoring, might bring to complaint case.

Haha...cannot calculate like that la bro... 1st half fuel indicator did not equivalent to half tank your petrol... Full tank consist of fuel, air n pressure...
You will get 400++km for 1st half...but remaining only max about 300km...

Why can't calculate like that? I didn't pump half tank, I pump 20L when 1 bar beep alert, and refuel another 20L when reach next 1 bar beep alert, and the 20L did go 450KM.

Full tank consist of fuel, air n pressure? half tank also consist of fuel, air n pressure, I don't see anything to do with FC except full tank is bit heavier.

If I pump 36L, I can assure you PC can reach 800+KM

800km is doable in PC what he mean is actually from full to half take longer times from half to beep bcos of the fuel tank design .. i think for PC even 900km is achievable but with terms and condition as what toyota claim 1L can get 35-45km but then with terms and condition lal. tongue.gif

if u drive yr pc more gender, u should able to get so. i stayed in kl and most of the time i drive 60kmh-90kmh.

last week i travel in highway, drove 110kmh, petrol consumption much more, 730km for one full tank.

i notice after my second service, my consumption drop much, not sure what they adjusted on my car, i found the brake abit different already... i think that is the caused, right now still monitoring, might bring to complaint case.
*
u used mineral oil or semi or fully ? try not to used mineral at least semi .. ur FC will be more better .. mine just do second service last week.. request for fully but not allow by SC cos engine still new ask me to change to fully only at 10K

By simple math...you fuel up 20L n get 450km give you FC 22.5km/L..mean fulltank 810km...
But fulltank with 36L is heavier than 20L...so the car acceleration not same...provided that your driving behaviour same...
And 1 bar beep basically got 2-4L reserve...so you will not use full 36L...

My last reading show mileage to go already 0km then 1 bar fuel indicator start beep...

for me best way tu calculate my fc is record the date when i fill up. very jelous with those get excelence fc with their PC.. but for me what i get now is good enough... since my wife is the driver... and drive from bangi to serdang.. and aircond/radio/gps and telephone bluetooth. all the way... this what my PC

user posted image

if you are android user.. you can download this apps name mileage for free and start record your fuel consumption every fill up.. and you can get accurate FC of your PC..

36L fuel is only 12Kg heavier than 20L fuel, which is just 1 percent of the car weight, the impact to the FC is neglect able.

Actually you don't need to take the fuel tank size and shape into consideration, just use the pump to put in 30L, use my method post earlier, record it few times, then you can easily calculate your FC, and you do the extrapolation to the full tank, you will get 800++KM.

Kiding FC is 22.5km/l which is really normal for PC. So nothing more to argue.

Thanks Kiding for the info, didn't know 16L = 12kg

Guess the best way is save fuel is not pump less petrol, is clear your boot & reduce the driver & passenger weight LOL rclxms.gif

Bro...no matter how high FC  you achieved...in total you refuel petrol after 600++km...which mean you refuel back for 30-33L out of 36L tank... As i said avg we get is 20++km/L...

Otherwise...did anyone manage to get more than 700km with fulltank..??! or 900++km...then i need to learn from them...

Agreed. Today my 6th time refuelling and still achieved around 600++km per full tank. I dont quite monitor the FC but rather the total mileage per full tank refueling.

Today my wife is the driver,she pick up faster than me and just treat the PC as her Honda City from Cheras to IKEA, didn't bother the FC and eco score (end up eco score only 50-60). However, she managed to get 28.5km/l after off engine. Amazing.

Maybe faster pick up + remain constant speed = better FC?

Totally agree. ^^ If u keep pressing pedal and change speed. Seem it effect ur PC FC ^^

Wow... got quite a scared as today in Sunway a driver knock into my PC as doing illegal turn and my side mirror got damage.. TT

To add to bad day. Just woke up and find 2 ppl in Vios attempt to hijack my PC outside my house. Lucky the dog woke me up and spoil their day.

Anyone got any suggestion for security for their PC ? WIsh to put GPS tracker and steering lock now

If eco score is more than 50, our pc should already get a good fc. But if it go beyond 60 - 80, we will get the best fc ever. So for me just drive as a normal but dont accelerate hard. It will kill the fc. Cheers

Well bro, thats how people drives in kl. Very careless & selfish, just dont care about others. Lucky for you nothing happen to ur PC. As for a start just get a normal steering lock, it acts as a deterence but you cant stop them from steeling car. If you wish to install a gps tracker, you must make to choices.
1. Self monitoring
2. Aided monitoring
Both are the same, the only different is one got people monitor for you and you pay more for the service. I'll try to get you the list of all gps product in malaysia.

i'm planned to put GPS tracker.. this device sell by my friend.. this device can be put under your dashboard without other knowing.. have own battery like nokia phone battery.. and can be charge when car is moving..

must have sim card.. can be prepaid or postpaid.. and from your phone send code to the device.. device will give us accurate coordinate.. and can view the coordinate with google maps..

also can set a speed limit to this device .. let say speed limit 90kmj.. when this car speed above 90kmj.. the gps tracker will send car location to our henpon every 10 sec...

i find this gps tracker quite good and very small size more less like nokia 3310...

my problem.. is the time to put it... and how to dissemble the dashboard... doh.gif doh.gif

Sorry to heard what happen to your PC. Anyway good thing will come afterward.

1st time know ppl attempt to steal PC (with keyless entry) wonder how will there start the engine with all electronic stuff. Wonder the big Bro Prius have any stolen case. We must take extra care then, I think one of best security is those engine auto cut off if not code enter, coz ppl may rob & take car key from you and drive away. But without the code they can't run far, then is time for you to escape & report police.

Just to share this info, this will give peace of mind to all Keyless Entry Car Owner.

Prius is least likely to be stolen.

vehicles are less likely to get stolen because they’re, well, boring. Other times it’s because they have hefty security systems, high technology or their parts aren’t worth much overseas. In the case of the Prius, there is a smart key involved (high technology). When the Prius is still it its factory stages, its smart key has a unique Key ID Code burned into its memory as well as a Vehicle ID Code, which is unique to the vehicle it is paired with. Without the key in the car, the vehicle cannot be operated - both the engine and steering wheel are locked. In fact, the only recorded thefts of the Prius are by people who either left their keys in the car or out in the open.

My MG currently pakai IES...but GSM/SMS type la... Like i mention earlier...put simcard on d device n installed it under driver' cabin... We can received notification thru sms and we can stop the engine by sending sms or call... We also can call to the car but only one way...cant communicate...but we can hear sound from the car...
We can stop the car dont know exactly where location...can ask operator to track the simcard...
We also can activate to auto arm or auto lock the car when we forgot...
Better check...i dont think ade GPS yg self monitoring... Cause it will need a centre to give satellite service...

About the guy clipping and damaging your PC mirror doing a U-turn....

What do you do if this happens? What did you do? Report it to police? Did the guy pay you?
Crazy drivers.....hate it when they double park on tight road like in Bangsar village and you clip their mirror and your mirror bends back. Luckily no damage to mine so far.

Just shift to P and relax, don't need to press the pedal brake. If you shift to N, the engine won't charge the hybrid battery

Just shift to P and relax, don't need to press the pedal brake. If you shift to N, the engine won't charge the hybrid battery

Any system that can detect door opening or engine running, just need to tap the wires. If you need to shut down the engine will need wire cutting. Well bro, just choose where you park and you'll know it's safe. tongue.gif

Sure bro but sorry if i'm wrong. If i'm not mistaken B is engine braking when you go downhill, for example Genting road. If the PC is fully loaded, engine braking is good to ease the brakes. You don't want to over heat the brake while going downhill. Have experience it once and damn no brakes (my old car)

i afraid that some GPS traker need wire cutting to enable remote engine stop or something else.. and this could void the warranty..

and i think that.. it very dangerous to cut off engine remotely by GPS system during the car is moving coz the car will lost power.. no power steering, less brake and our car might be involve in accident..

Just to share this info, this will give peace of mind to all Keyless Entry Car Owner.

Prius is least likely to be stolen.

vehicles are less likely to get stolen because they’re, well, boring. Other times it’s because they have hefty security systems, high technology or their parts aren’t worth much overseas. In the case of the Prius, there is a smart key involved (high technology). When the Prius is still it its factory stages, its smart key has a unique Key ID Code burned into its memory as well as a Vehicle ID Code, which is unique to the vehicle it is paired with. Without the key in the car, the vehicle cannot be operated - both the engine and steering wheel are locked. In fact, the only recorded thefts of the Prius are by people who either left their keys in the car or out in the open.

Feel so relief after reading the articles. Thanks for sharing.

A months ago, someone tried to steal my neighbor new BM but bumped into another neighbor and failed. 2 weeks ago, another neighbor kena cars stolen, the guys broke into his living room, grab the keys and drove away a Mercedes, Camry, Alphard and Vios. A weeks ago, another neighbor Alphard and Mercedes also get stolen.

Damn scare my car will disappear when I wake up. Now have to keep the key secured (under my pillow). rclxms.gif


Added on October 8, 2012, 10:48 amFound out that pick up slowly, keep 80-100kmh constant speed with Eco doesn't really help.

Route: Cheras -> Kesas High way -> Glenmarie

This morning I was rushing time, off the Eco mode, pick up fast (not yet into the PWR bar, but close) and drove 100-120kmh. Reach in 30 mins instead of 50 mins, however the FC (25.8km/l) is slightly better than Eco driving style (25.4km/l), and 20 mins saved.

Follow (not tailgate!) a red PC (WXB **32) on the fast lane just now. Found out that red PC is quite HOT.

Altis 1.8 has max torque 173Nm, horsepower 140PS, weight 1270kg
PC has 169Nm, 101PS, weight 1140kg
So, it is comparable to Altis 1.8 if the battery is sufficient charged

1) Switch off your engine and you can still wind down or up the window (for approx 30 sec until the led indicator switch off)
2)You can turn off the radio by pressing the 'mode' button on the steering control for more then 2 seconds

guys any extra function not stated in the manual ??

Not worried about the car might be involved in accident if the thief is still inside the car, just hope that others are not involved as well if it happens.

To timeone & aragongon,

(1) My house is near Kota Damansara toll. I pay 2 toll charges twice daily (RM4.60/day) and hence no need to go through any traffic light to reach my office in Shah Alam where all road junctions mostly have a roundabout

(2) I normally leave early, meaning, minimum jam

(3) Going uphill I used petrol engine, going downhill I used glide mode as much as I could, flat road maximum EV mode.

Of course, it was not a 100% smooth journey, or else I could have achieved a better result.

Save time, yes, but not really saving money as toll charges are expensive...

Just collected my Aqua Mica Prius C today thumbup.gif.

Nearly went home without the car key because the SA had the key in his pocket when I drove off but luckily he remembered on time and called me so I waited for him by the side of the road to pass me back the key. Was told that I could still continue driving without the key but won't be able to start the car again later unless i have the key with me tongue.gif.

Engah, thanks for your sharing. Just 2 questions:
1.) when you are cruising, what speed are you maintain on?

2.) during acceleration, how you manage your accelerator? slow acceleration or fast acceleration? on what speed only you kick in petrol engine?

70km/h is awesome. You must be very patient. I am trying my best to stay till 60km/h. Mostly accelerate till 55kmh already give up and kick in petrol engine.

1. Morning rush hour, max I could drive was 60 to 75 km/hr, most of the time below 40

2. On flat land, 65km/hr, down hill, 72km/h

This morning, when I left my house, petrol engine started to kick in even when I was driving in the housing estate at a low speed, with battery more than half charged. Something I do not understand.

well are ur frens hybrid drivers as well who "warm up their engine" before setting off?

improved automotive technologies have vastly reduce the need for engine warm up, and even thats hardly apply to our country weather.

and how quick or slow the car moves depend on u stepping the accel. u floor it both will kick in to give u max power. light footed and only EV will used.

well are ur frens hybrid drivers as well who "warm up their engine" before setting off?

improved automotive technologies have vastly reduce the need for engine warm up, and even thats hardly apply to our country weather.

and how quick or slow the car moves depend on u stepping the accel. u floor it both will kick in to give u max power. light footed and only EV will used.

yep.. he own prius 1.8 ... what he tell me that after our prius ready.. gear at P, hand brake ON.. press a little bit accel paddle.. until your petrol engine start... the petrol engine will run only 30-45sec .. and then go to standby mode.. after that u start to drive your PC...

for me on the logic.. quite true.. coz our PC will start move using battery motor... and then after few KM/speed the petrol kick in... at that speed i think it a little bit " shock".. to the petrol engine... hmm.gif hmm.gif hmm.gif

l found out that the battery level effect our PC FC a lot .. i can easyly get over 30km/L with battery level at least on 5-7 bar .. just drive over the eco ev zone to charge up the battery and the next thing u know is the FC getting over 30km/L .. i think engah manage to get his high FC is bcos he is charging uo the battery on highway so that the Hybrid system will use more electric motor to run the car ..

no need to warm up engine even on prius and prius c .. our car come with a tank that store the heated oil so that when the engine is cold it will pump into moving part and the atkinson system help to raising up the correct tempature for the engine ..

even none hybrid engine (new engine ) manufacturer also not recommend to warm up the engine ..

saw some article also say early morning stationery warm up engine do more damage than start up drive slowly ..

the only thing need to do is not to high rev the engine .. on early morning start ..

i also realise when battery level higher, much lower FC, and it even got more power to climb hill. i realise after my car service by taman shamelin, the battery charge very slow. i think the brake adjustment will caused the MG2 (motor/generator charging from the brake and wheel) run out. i check in other forum, some even said after they remove the 12v battery, some variable in the computer will reset and it will caused the PC to relearn your driving ways. this is my 2nd services, first service in bangi they dont change my brake, but this cheras one they adjust without my agreement....

i think warm up engine some time might need, especially when the PC left 2 bar battery, definetely the PC have to run in engine, so that time better let the engine charge enough then only move the car. but on toyota, their manual do mention no need to warm up the car.

1.  Morning rush hour, max I could drive was 60 to 75 km/hr, most of the time below 40

2. On flat land, 65km/hr, down hill, 72km/h

This morning, when I left my house, petrol engine started to kick in even when I was driving in the housing estate at a low speed, with battery more than half charged. Something I do not understand.

Prius C will start the engine if the car engine temperature is low, no matter you are driving on EV mode, this is to warm up the engine.

I stay in the hill top, when temperature below 24c in the morning, the engine will auto start even my battery is 7-8 bar full and driving slow.

Thanks for your explanation. Now I understand. This morning the temp was relatively low, that 's why the engine kicked in as soon as I started driving

(i) Replace the rubber whetherstrip at the driver's door to minimise the loud wind noise from entering.

(ii) Replace or apply anti-rust coating on the exhaust pipe and hinges that were rusted since the delivery of car.

Loud wind noise is because PC too quiet. You may filter out other important sounds if you apply more sound filter (eg. other car horn, car coming fast, bumper kena kissed, car kena kicked by motorists etc). It is very dangerous to be deaf on the road too.

According the service manual, there anti rust inspection every 10 km or more. Don't know where it is the one u mentioned.


Added on October 10, 2012, 2:39 pmJust did my 1k services yesterday at Toyota Cheras service centre, free car wash, free labor, only parts RM104, deducted from the RM380 e voucher given previously.


Added on October 10, 2012, 2:46 pmActually I don't really know why people comment the dashboard is shit compared to HI's. PC got a rich color, good resolution and iterative dash board. it is so much fun to play with. Also very distracting on the road. haha

PC comes with no alignment done, told by my SA. Service Centre provide free alignment services before 1000km. Guys, beware of your alignment while you just receive the car.

I got mine fixed after my second service. As long as it is within the warranty period, it should be ok. Initially, I also thought the noise came from dashboard but the SC said it came from the curtain airbag.

We have rusty metal part underneath our PC.

Yesterday's paper reported a worldwide recall by Toyota. The workmanship of PC seems to be quite poor.

Thanks bro thumbup.gif , the shop showed few sample of the same metallic blue. Everything looks the same but we manage to get the closest match. The cost of the TRD kit is RM1600 and it comes with the LED (no extra charge). The car itself is still the same height but the TRD kit make an additional plus minus 1 inch lowered (looks only). So far it doesn't effect the FC because the TRD kits are light.

Added on October 11, 2012, 10:27 amI think with front light, fog light and the LED on at night. It definitely will scare off a lot of drivers at front.

Well bro aragongon, my next project will be the front small light and the rear number plate light first. Just need to change the bulbs only and will not effect the warranty. icon_rolleyes.gif

I guess we need feedback from imran6789. If he has no problem, then we could consider that. ^^

Well guys, after installing the TRD kit and driving it around town. So far no problem overcoming the speed bump, still a lot of clearance from the bumps. Not to forget going in and out of our shopping complexes, no problem at all. thumbup.gif

But there is only 1 thing that you must be aware. Is only when you side park or turning into a tight corner, the part where the LED's are is a bit jutting out. Dont wanna scratch the TRD kit. hmm.gif

My opinion/advice is the TRD kit on the PC are awesome especially with the LED thumbup.gif

2-3 years down the road, PC may also kena recall because they normally act on customer's complaint. Those sold in Malaysia are normally said to be "unaffected". Quite strange. Why? May be life here is "cheap" lah

Nope it won't at all. Things that I can think of that will affect the FC -

1. Bigger rims = heavier rims
2. Transfer household items into the car doh.gif

The TRD kit doesn't weigh that much actually. You can actually hold them with one hand


Added on October 11, 2012, 10:52 pmTo engah & keanutan.

That why we need the forum to keep owners updated, especially when it comes to problem to the PC. Give everybody a head start. Use every opportunity during the warranty period. Just my two cents.

i believe its mostly unaffected due to origin of assembly and parts localisation. but its also highly possible that the recall is legal based, where their legal department will advise whether recall is necessary based on "will we get sued and pay a hefty fine?"

I guess if you have extra cash, maybe can go for Japan rims. Those rims are light.

Yes bro. Those rims are far more better than stock rims. Some are fully forged and they are damn strong.
