I've gotten my engine mounting replaced since last Tuesday. Until today, there's no knocking issue.

No idea. But you can try asking

Hmm, it has been 7 days since it got replaced and still no issue. I'll continue monitoring and get back to you should there be any defect.

Check your USB file system first. If I'm not mistaken, should be FAT32.

My advice is to just get them to replace first then you can test it out for yourself. Cause your replacement unit may solve your issue.

Today is the 12th day (engine mounting replacement )and still no knocking sound.

Hmm, will continue to monitor before i can say this is a permanent solution.

A quick update, the noise did indeed came back (even after replacement for engine mounting).

I've checked @ ToyotaTribe forum, one of them claim that there's no noise after performed the following replacement:
- engine mounting
- both lower arm
- inserting rubber tube at lower coil @ front absorber

Can anyone clarify this ? I'm gonna raise this as reference to the Service Advisor.

About 2 weeks for mine.

I'm thinking to get them to replace for the lower arm as well to see if it helps.

Don't do any turning until a music is played ?

Today i sent for 10k service and complaint on the tuk tuk sound that came back after 2 weeks of engine mounting replacement. SA immediately instructed them to check on the lower arm. After hours, they acknowledge and placed order for lower arm. Guess I'll have to wait and see.

Hmm, just for sharing. I sent my car last Monday for 10k servicing plus complain on the tuk tuk sound after engine mounting replaced. They instructed their technicians to check on the lower arm. They said they ordered new lower arm for replacement, but at the mean time they applied something to it.

It has been about 9 days and the sound seems to disappear till now. This may be a workaround but from what I've experienced in the other sc, they applied something as well but that lasted only up to 2 days.

I'm not sure if using fully sync oil will help with the FC. I've been using full synthetic oil since my first service (1k).

But from my experience, what I do know is that driving with Eco mode turned OFF definitely help!

Hi aroma,

Yup, the ECO mode lighting is just an indicator. If there's lighting, it means you're on Eco Mode.

To turn it off/on, refer to the following link:

Toyota Tribe

I got to know about this about 2 weeks ago and I'm still monitoring. But in brief, here's my finding:

With Eco mode:
- avg: 11.52km/l

Without Eco mode:
- avg: 13.7km/l

Mostly city driving, about 90%

Well, more to the eco light = how hard we press on the pedal. Actually I feel much more comfortable driving with eco mode on, but for FC sake, I turn it off. I'll continue to monitor for another month or two before deciding if I were to go with on/off in future

Some ppl said that Eco is just the lighting. But from my personal experience, with Eco mode on/off, it feels very different. I'm new to driving so I'm not sure how to explain it. I would suggest you to give it a try, no harm right ? Maybe then, you can give more details explanation to others who need them.

Hi everyone ~

What's the usual self-check you guys do before driving your car for long journey ?

I'm asking this because I'll be driving from KL to Penang for holiday. Current mileage is 15k. Do you think I should send to SC to check ? Or just wait till it reaches my next service at 20k mileage. (3rd Gen, E spec)

Also, roughly how long our battery will last ?
