for a good tyre, the life span is around 30k mileage.

this includes consideration that rubber tends to get harden due to the compound and hot weather in malaysia.

i strongly suggest that you change it if its reached the 30k mark.

change 2 pcs if budget is a concern.

perhaps some airCond hose loosen?

nope. End of the day.. it will loose up and you will need more clicks to lock it properly.

hence, servicing is required to re-tune it back to have only few clicks.

its configured at the drum brake mechanism.

buying used car involved additional processing fee, insurance and puspakom charges.

i haven't mentioned much higher interest rate. also, definitely you need additional RM5k easily to change the tear and wear parts in a old car; when the car mileage is exceeding 200k mark.

do not expect 0 repair on used car.

buying rm33k axia auto is a much wiser choice.

oic... then be prepared to have some extra cash for tear and wear parts.

no problem bro.

Hope you got a decent quality one.

earlier got another fella suggesting Axia already la, i just add on comments only.

good luck bro.

he's buying first gen Vios off used car dealer.

better build quality than our 3rd gen...

for the auto power window, it should be 1-touch setup.

send it for further check up.

if you're comparing PS3 and XM2, PS3 is way better in terms of grip.

for comfort, can try Goodyear Excellence since you already have budget for PS3.

PS3 cost around RM220-250 per pcs as advertised in Mudah.my

Excellence, only available from 16 and above...

agreed~~

its cheap for 14-15 size... 17's is overkill...

i never see such upgrade on the wiper intermittent options in the trade.

what performance you're referring to? it depends on what you wanna achieve in the first place?

yeap.

from your tone:
1. Sound proof
2. Entry Level Ice
3. Leather seat
4. ARB
5. Exhaust system

My suggestion:
1. Sound proof --> highly recommended to proceed with full floor + rear boot. Next, is wheel arch and 4 doors. Around RM3k.
2. Entry Level Ice --> the range is too wide; from RM1k to infinity.
3. Leather seat --> optional, cost around RM1.8-2.5k
4. ARB --> recommended to reduce bodyroll, much better handling at corners --> cost around RM400-550.
5. Exhaust system --> don't touch if you're sending in to those AhBeng workshops

hope the above helps.

wise choise.

sure can do section by section.

As for reference, you can look for Welgan, tell him Ethan recommend; he should give you good price. No commission for me, tell you upfront first.
