I will be dipping the whole car very soon, most probably after new year









last but not least.. bodykits




I would not recommend plastiDIP brand, its overpriced and overbudget..
get Aikka, I know the dealer in Kepong so I dropped by quite often at his shop for latest and newest product.. I know lots of secrets about new releases
Their newest product clear coat plastiDIP is better than plastiDIP brand, you can apply at your car to prevent stone chips just like the 3M protective films, or you can also use it as base coat and apply color plastiDIP on it, its even stronger in terms of elastic (when you want to peel, it won't break) and stone chip damage


pricing wise, each aerosol can is RM38 for normal colors and clear coat gloss effect (A.K.A. base coat)

You can refer to the closest dealer around you from here >> Aikka Facebook page

thats mean still have knocking sound for the front when on uneven or bump?

Wow.. U really spent alot of time on ur ride.

Thanks for the suggestion of Aikka.


Ford Focus Mk2 2.0L S Hatchback.

Yeap, the knocking aound still there.

I dont think they will acknowledge this and get u a replacement since its not an issue at all.

even old old saga wira also don't have this sound...
i believe they umw will find a solution when more and more 3rd gen on the road, more and more complain they receive, since this is not rare case... just hope they don't go "mmg macam ni" XD

btw my fren's audi have weird sound when turn left, but no sound when turn right,
after multiple attempt to fix, they decide give him "mmg macam ni" treatment LOL

my 2nd gen vios 1 year old, also got klik klik sound at left front door, after serval fix they told me is frm dashboard, after fix no tis sound.

now is my window if i auto press close but it close and open half. seems like the windows support rubber gt a bit bent, i told the SC and they juz reset the windows board, problem stil same unitl now.

last month raining heavy, the road is flooded a bit, i think only lower half than the rim, i overtake a car and heard a knock sound.

like hitting a brunches or rock. when reach home my rear bumper drop a bit, the holder part broken.

so lauya one, i fix back myself but most of the part is broken, but not very serious. really disappointed with vios.

but some of the G spec owners here never have this kind of issue? so should we raise this issue to HQ and get a replacement since its kinda annoy? ~

normally, got knocking sound upon wheel turn mostly come from the steering rack. This is my experience on 2 of my previous ride.

i guess single or 2 case reported wont give their management a hint since its like once in a blue moon case.

apart from this, i also asked the Team Lead on the common reported case on new Vios. He said mainly is over-sensitve alarm sensor only. Other than that, nothing.

can u show me the pictures of steering rack please? i want to know more.

you can go to facebook "toyota Malaysia" and u can see many ppl have same problem with us.

I didn't snap pictures at all. Don't think they allow us into the service bay. Only waited at lounge.

hmm so we have to tighten nuts for the steering rack or apply some grease to solve the noise prob?

not steering rack, its the lower arm.

personally, not likely to explain it that way.

So, whats your plan now? bring to different SC?

or just leave it like that and live with it?

fed up to go back SC and complaint again since it doesnt gets fruitful.

will only raise this again in 5k service.

wah now we in V4... good to see some new member joining..

i facing some issue on brake pad... my brake pad change color from black to some part is copper / orange color.

rust?

Nope cause of over heat...

how much is this?
