possible of gear downshift, and the RPM rise due to gear hold.

Alright. Meaning everyone also notice this engine acceleration sounds. Hmm.. It's significant although the not very loud. But I'm sure every driver and passenger will notice without radio on.

Ya, especially going down hill the engine sound are loud, SC said due to ABS controlling of the gear, already asked the SC log in service report in case any warranty issue. My one J sec.

RM200 for windscreen, totally worth it.

i think is RM30 premium for every RM300 repair cost.. so its around there.

Means that my first insurance value will be 68k? Can it be putting more higher ? is it worth to do so?

on average, RM10k drop annually under the fourth year... its where the value will be sustained..

you may google Vios previous years prices in the used car sites..

thats the pattern.

Yes, mine is J but no such issue. Yesterday just took my car to SC checking due to my brake no function a few second during uneven road with speed 50kmj. Report came out ABS ok and the brake functioning well. hmm.gif

Anyone had this experience before?

I agree, this is definitely a defect.

I meant by G , E or J model. Based on the pic yours should be J or E.
Mine is G ,got different headlamp and so far no such issue.

no down hill, just a normal uneven road which sometime i pass by. Not feeling engine breaking, just felt like when pushing the brake pedal it sounds "krok krok" few second then the brake back to normal. Weird. hmm.gif
