I have check it out. But if compared to vios, i prefer vios. But when comparing 1.8 version, i prefer civic. Hmm maybe next car. Not now.

S & S+ seems like many features they take out from the car. City E specs just nice as Vios E.

Good Day folks.

is it advisable for new vios drive up to Genting? Current mileage 158km

Thanks

just whack it~

i've been driving it up to 140kmh within the first 200km ODO~

LOL.

Does it makes any diff by driving up hill than flat-land highway? Driving up hill required more torque though.

you also need more throttle to gain the higher speed.

btw, this Vios torque is pathetic. no point to "test drive" it uphill.

just whack it.

haha. noted with thanks.

My 1st 1000km is from KL > Penang > KL = Service Center

Understand more about this.

Any others freebies the SA provided ? And how long can receive the car ?

freebie usually will be boot tray, tinting film, carpet, roadtax sticker....with or without (usually) discount lu.

Got mine recently, and it's took 1 and a half month to arrive, RM3k rebate mentioned earlier. As for free gift, they only give me boot tray, road tax sticker and umbrella. Road Tax & tinted glass voucher has converted to cash so i can discount further

Anyone managed to solve the brake paddle freeplay and knocking sound when going over bump?

My SC manager (wangsa maju) acted like nothing is wrong and very surprised when I mentioned these 2 problem.

Might write in to UMW.

save the hassle.

everyday i heard knocking sound from the behind the dash.

till date, nothing comes back from them even after numerous complaints.

Since i buy from my sis (she is freelance salesgirl)
No freebies,she gave me her commision about 1k, so i can use it for what i need in my car. For E spec stock ready by this may. Plus bodykit i bought at 1900.

Read the link below. I believe the knocking sound we experience is similar to this:

For my case, I had just complained to the SA during my first service last week. But the problem could not be replicated during a short test drive with the SA - I just discovered now that the bumps near the Service Center (which is in an industrial area) were wider and smoother, hence no knocking were heard when going over the bumps. The SA also said they found nothing wrong with the car suspension or absorber during the service and inspection. But the problem still persists now whenever I drive over bumps. So I wrote an email to 'customersupport@toyota.com.my' that same day to voice my frustration about the knocking sound. Surprise, surprise - a few days later, the Frontline Executive from the same SC called me up to fix an appointment just to diagnose the problem with their 'most experienced' technician. I have been driving around the SC and identified several 'suitable' bumps in a housing estate nearby that are narrower and able to reproduce the knocking sound. Will update here after the troubleshooting appointment next week . I hope UMW is not hiding something they know just to save cost even though they keep on assuring me not to worry and that they will replace any defective parts if found. Let's wait and see.

Thanks for the updates.

I've been following the particular knocking sound issues till the day i got my car which few days ago. Surprisingly i didnt hear any knocking sounds when over the road bumps, not sure i'm the lucky one OR they notice the issues, fix and only deliver for the new batch.

If I remember correctly, there was no knocking sound when I first got the car. It's something that appeared over time. And not all types bumps will produce the knocking sound. Hopefully yours is from a newer batch that had been rectified.

hopefully mine will be a new batch or no issue at all like yours ..

Just want to ask you guys,

I play lots of ICE...
around 1200w RMS Amp circulating in my car
Does installing 3rd party alternator feasible to apply in vios?
