Go car glass shop they will check for u if it is fixable, need asap before dirt go in.

im running on average 11.5km/litre~

thats around RM0.18 per km, based on RM2.10 per litre of RON95 fuel.

thats around 390km per RM70 tank of fuel.

Driving style, kwai kwai one.
Traffic condition, 60% highway and 40% heavy jam

hope this info helps.

no jam? what fuel? petronas? 95? 97?

vios launch almost 1 year already should be see enough otr , so ask u guys some opinion,
1) u guys think rear boot got chrome bar looks nicer or without?

I just get to kno thay new vios fc is bad compare to previous vios...even my father 2003 unser managed 530km with full tank rm100..

But y still many people buy vios ya?

Anti roll bars provide 2 main functions:
The first is the reduction of body lean. The reduction of body lean is dependent on the total roll stiffness of the vehicle. Increasing the total roll stiffness of a vehicle does not change the steady state total load (weight) transfer from the inside wheels to the outside wheels, it only reduces body lean. The total lateral load transfer is determined by the CG height and track width.

The other function of anti roll bars is to tune the high g / limit understeer behavior of the vehicle. The limit understeer behavior is tuned by changing the proportion of the total roll stiffness that comes from the front and rear axles. Increasing the proportion of roll stiffness at the front will increase the proportion of the total weight transfer that the front axle reacts and decrease the proportion that the rear axle reacts. This will cause the outer front wheel to run at a higher slip angle, and the outer rear wheel to run at a lower slip angle, which is an understeer effect. Increasing the proportion of roll stiffness at the rear axle will have the opposite effect and decrease understeer

Highly Recommended for Street, Track, Drift, Rally, Autocross, Gymkhana, Drag Racing and etc

Guys. Any idea how to repair a small portion of paint that's being scratch off?

The paint is gone and reached the metal part due to one of my passenger opened it too hard and knocked on something which I have no idea of until yday when I send my car to install the roof insulation thing.

The toyota guy told me need to spray whole door else the colour will be different. I mean I don't mind if the colour goes a little bit off than the original but I don't want to spend a fortune on it.

Like this can ah?

may I ask whether worth getting a year end car like Vios ? thanks.

Just go to aeon and buy car touch up paint. I did mine and it cost me rm50 for the paint.

Will it rust?

So far  so good, come with 3 bottle

1 bottle clear coat, 1 bottle paint and 1 bottle wax & grease removal. Finishing wise depends on u lo

anyone have this loud road noise when driving on highway? anyone tried soundproofing? 

I heard abt wheel arch soundproof and floor insulation...  which is better? anyone tried before?

A good question.. I did that too before this but refrained from doing so now because there were a few instances where I push to D from N when approaching traffic light but suddenly the traffic light changes to green. So I had to change back to D when the car is moving which is no good to the gearbox. That is what I read online. Im afraid that I might have spoilt my gearbox now 

From personal experience and basic understanding of how gear box works, shifting to N while your car is in motion will do negligible to no harm to your gearbox. Look at the video below for better understanding of how it generally works.



If you switch to neutral gear while in motion, all you do is 'release' the gear, there's no additional friction or damage to the gearbox

However, I suspect that if you switch to D gear while your car is still in motion in neutral gear, you will cause a little damage to the gearbox. As you can see from the video, the gear will still be rotating when the D gear is engaged, causing friction with a moving gear part.

TL/DR: Shift to N while moving = OK, Shifting to D from N while in motion = Personally not advisable.

I could be wrong, feel free to correct me.
