The increased of the expenses might be also one of the reason.

QUOTE(ywyap @ Mar 18 2015, 04:49 PM) Hi all sifus,need some advice here. been driving a Mazda 3 until last Jan. Bigger in size definitely but leg space for passenger behind I doubt it. Currently driving Suzuki Swift GLX 2011 ver(new car).Been drivng for 2 years plus and so far so good.The only issue is the spaces which is abit small and i dont quite like the interior. So I thinking to get a 2nd hand car budget 50-60k. Found this 2nd hand Mazda 3 1.6 hatchback 2012 ver (rm60k)? Isit wise to trade my current car for this 2nd hand car?  QUOTE(slayerste @ Mar 18 2015, 09:38 PM) Hi all sifu(s), pros. Need some advice here too.. I think they are quite good but unfortunately not many people will buy the older model of Mazda tend the resale value is low. As for servicing, only been to the one in BSD. The service is so-so nothing particular special. The only problem I have with my Mazda 3 is the noise of the absorbers. Claimed once but the sound came back after a few months. The sound only come when you are driving pass bumps. Planning to buy a car around 40-60k.. 1. Should I buy second hand mazda 3 or new almera? 2. How about the service/ reliability of mazda 3? I did some research, Mazda seems quite reliable.. But I am wondering how come the resale value is so low.. Thank you in advance!  I would prefer a new car because I dont have time to send my car for repair if there is any problem with the second hand car. |

QUOTE(phearfiery @ Mar 20 2015, 03:01 AM) Hi to all sifus,need some advice here. Thanks in advance Those bolded cars have expensive parts and service. Reason is due to lack of parts in the market. If you want cheap parts and service always go back to Toyota or Honda car.  1. Brand : Any 2. Budget : rm60k below 3. New/Used/Unreg : Doesn't matters. 4. Specs : Doesn't matters. 5. Transmission : AT 6. NA or FI : Any 7. Type : 4 seater. 8. Remarks : Prefer cars that have not so expensive parts and service. And could drive for long run. Basically I have few cars in my mind. New Nissan Almera lowest spec I think. (RM58k+) 2nd Hand Mazda 3 1.6(A) Sport Hatchback millage:30k-35k, made from year 2012 (RM58,800) 2nd Hand VW Polo 1.2(A) Tsi Warranty2016 millage:30k-35k, made from year2010 (RM48,800) 2nd Hand PUG 308 1.6 Turbo 6Speed millage:20k-25k, made from year2013 (RM55,800) |

QUOTE(KenYoung @ Mar 23 2015, 02:49 AM) hey thanks alot for the info.!! Honda parts are expensive? Didnt know that as I thought there are just behind Toyota when you are talking about price parts. i like the asx but also looking at the crv... mom not so keen on CRV bcoz she says parts for Honda has always been known to be expensive. BUT, i was telling her TODA car parts are usually the most cost efficient. correct me if im wrong. hehe oh , to do a comprehensive search on the used cars im looking for, im looking at 5 webs: http://www.motortrader.com.my/index.html http://www.mudah.my/li?cg=1020&w=3&th=1 http://www.autoworld.com.my/ http://www.oto.my/?display=list another 1, which have very limited search feature is http://www.carsifu.my/cars are there any webs or avenues i can look into? would like to exhaust my options before deciding. hehe it is good to note a few webs listed on first post are not available. ASX is a big no for me as after a year or 2 you will start hearing noises coming out from here and there. |

QUOTE(JW3333 @ Apr 28 2015, 04:29 PM) Regarding Sylphy, any issue on CVT engine/gearbox? As saw a lot of complaint from others forum. A bit worry if later need to spend more money to repair it if get a used car... I thought only Teana got this problem? Apparently the gearbox need to replace once it reach 4-5 years. |
