my vios also serve me well, 4 years already. still service at service center. i think i will keep service at service center as so far i am satisfy with their service quality.

my vios is g spec, the onyl i want to complaint is the car remote control. it is super not sensitive, i need to go vy near the car only can unlock. planning to change a better remote control, any recommendation ?

also, i wish to change typre and rim, currently still stock sport rim... i wish to go for size 205 as i think wider will gv me more stable drive. any recommendation tyre brand ?


these 4 years my fuel consumption is always 35L gv me around 350-400km 80% citydrive, 20 highway... my driving style mayb... i am getting use to it. how about others ?

Tyre size 205 requires 16' rim. Why don't you try to uprate current stock size of 185/15 to 195/15, assuming your on 15' now. The extra 10mm at each wheels would definitely provide more grip.

your average consumption of 11.4km/litre is more or less there, whereby mine is around 11.8km/L. However, we have member here that could fetch 14km/l.
mine is due on Dec2014... still waiting new quote~ laugh.gif

cover RM70k is more than enough~ laugh.gif
insuring high value helps you when the car is declared total lost. They either compensate you based on current used car market value, of certain % off the sum insured; example around 80-88% on the insured value.

i saved my own ass on my previous ride whereby market price was RM43k and i insured RM50k. Upon total lost, i claimed 88% off the sum insured, and it helped me to cover my outstanding balance entirely.

my stock rim can use up to 195/15? as my stock rim still in perfect condition, if can use, i will reuse back de. can save min 1k i guess. you are using 195 ?


by the way, i thought we cant under / over insured of the car ?

depends on your budget, my friend.

a decent 15's 195 should cost around RM180-280 per pcs, depends on what you want.
