Tq. I'm sure there are a few owners in LYN

everything original, what can we add extra?
i intentionally wan to make a even better sound proof isolation for the base of car, a profesional team quote me 2.2k

wow wat they wanna add..?
i added a 7th inch darker car tint on the windscreen...
waiting for the availability of the locktech pedal lock

dunno why the youtube link not working, will try n re-do after work

Planning to add a bodykit.. Got quoted by one car accessories shop for imported modellista kit for rm9800... Wonder anyone else has any contacts?

why is this real power?

That's the Camry tagline

Haven really ask about the body kits. Don't think any available locally now. Gotta wait a few months. I also plan to put only a small spoiler or a diffuser.

do link us when it is available

They will add silent foam loh, haven ask in detail.

the locktech pedal cost how much? i wan too !

no stock for now. will update once available.
hows ur FC so far?

I installed a pedal lock for my camry already. Bought from GLS Auto for RM450. Looks quite good and solid.

Was thinking whether the UMW bodykit for the 2.0 is compatible with our model just for the bootlid spoiler. Dunno how much..

Wat brand was ur pedal lock? According to my SA, the 2.0 body kit can't fit the hybrid, not too sure about the spoiler though

I actually dunno what brand.. Just went in to GLS Auto in USJ7, ask the first salesperson i see. Asked for pedal lock for new camry. She says got, i asked how much, she answered rm450, i say go ahead install.. Life's easy and simple. 😊

Just checked my receipt.. Its Locktech.. Lol.

haha..icic...yups...life must be simple.=)

Hi guys. Anybody managed to connect their handphone to the car using Mirrorlink? I've tried connecting my Samsung S6 following exactly as tge manual said but no joy.

Welcome bro to the club, wat color is ur car?
Haven tried the mirror link yet. Still messing with the AVN

Hi there, anyone got problem with rattling "back view mirror?" .. Unfortunately mine just happen, 3K mileage and it came. When got it still don't have...

Hi welcome to the club, so far no prob with the rear mirror. Mine still new though. Loose screw?

Me currently is roughly 17.5/L with 40percent on highway. 1 full tank can lastroughly 900+

*me not those kind vroom vrrom guys.

Hi everyone !!! I'm owner from Perak...i have a problem with smartphone link also...anyone tested it and it works?

no problem for me ,using samsung note3. note u should link from car to find phone. not find car using phone

Awesome FC!

Would hv gotten this car if I dint buy my car earlier

Hi,it's mirror link? If Bluetooth link and play music it's work, but mirror link doesn't work...

Wow, nice. Ron 95?

You are the record holder now 17.5/L. Anyone can better this guy?

This is my best record, as for those tank, i purposely drive slow accelerate as much as i could , and keep maintain on the sweet spot 80kmh as much as i could , and whenever below 70, i try to utilise by using the hybrid battery.
Well , this kind of slow pace polite driving experience is sucks. haha just for test purpose only..

normally drive me 1 tank can last roughly 900km (rm101 full tank on rm1.95/L and Rm115 on full tank after 2.05/L petrol)

Ya, me also try mirror link and dun think is able to do so.
But not care since we driving better not looking on screen (my ex-car be4 camry was crash and total lost due to looking screen while driving lol . Lesson LEARNED)

Latest FC , i pump RM115 Which mean this record is consuming 56Litre
and could travel for 870km.

350km on highway and remaining on the super khongkhan KL traffic

Hi Guys,
One month old Hybrid owner here....so far loving the car!
I don't drive conservatively at all due to the ready torque...but I still get about 14km / litre....a full tank gives me about 700km..

Still clue less about mirror link with my android phone.....
Anyone hardworking enough to do a simple step-by-step guide?

14KM is not bad liao lo ! consider 2.5v car.
Tips: use eco mode to control tourque power

Welcome bro.
My average for 100% city driving is about 15.4km on eco mode. Haha but really not syok if on Eco mode.

agree lo , lost the purpose of 2.5v if on eco mode.

Yeah, I so far have never bothered with eco mode.
Had one trip to Kuantan from KL, and the the drive on the Karak was really enjoyable due to the torque

Wow, 20.6km/l, that is better than what claimed by toyota 19km/l

Bro, ur locktech double lock function working? Means can't start car unless unlock it?

no no , ur math wrong , is roughly 15.5

sorry, i read it from your photo capture of the info display meter, 20.6km/l, that is not correct?

guys, how many bars does the battery charged while driving? The highest I got is 6 bars and hardly goes 7 or 8 bars.

Hi bro, I am not sure. But it seems like the , "back view mirror " housing. Cause it give the squeaky sounds very often. I try to hold it tight a little and it will go away for a while. Gonna have it checked then. But so far really quite statistics with all others.

No worries bro, FYI , the 20.6 is per drive, so might not accurate (perhaps i am on downhill that time ) and varied by different city driving/ highhway drive. To get the accurate , u should use my total 870 divide by 56litre oil. like this sure correct d

Same, no matter how long u drive also wont full to 7 or 8 or drop below 2

Yes, it works and it looks slick as well. Better get it as popular new cars usually are targetted for parts.

hey bro, im interested for the lock too. where to buy and could u post photo of it?

Got my pedal lock from Pandan Indah shop for RM380 include installation.

Thank you so much for this Hybrid Fan Club ! Appreciate your effort.

My best FC so far : 3.9L / 100km or 25.6KM / L (from Cheras Pandan Indah to Petaling Street)
My average FC : 5.5L / 100km or 18.1KM / L
** 95% city drive **

I'm switching from Persona and quite satisfied with this car. It is quite, comfort, and very fuel saving (compare with my previous Persona). Car surround sound system is great, car infotainment is good.. Got my car for about 2 weeks now, reaching 1000km, only pump my petrol once (Ron97) for RM115. today is my second refuel (RM110).

Currently I'm connecting my iPhone via bluetooth. Haven't try out the MirrorLink, guess it is too complicated to set up. Appreciate if any SIFU here can teach us a short tutorial. I don't even know what app to download to use MirrorLink.

=)

BRO, ITS SO INSANE COMPARING UR RECORD TO US ! QUESTION:
1. are u pressing the pedal slow and nice all the time?
2. ur driving traffic condition are alway butterly smooth?
3. why u do RON97 instead?

do provide TIPS for this insane fc for everyone here pleasE?


*can please capture ur lock picture? i had no idea what was that ? i thought is sort of steering lock


This post has been edited by lexanoir: Jun 10 2015, 11:34 AM

This is the locktech, there are many similar brands but the ori is made is Thailand and the key has Thai wordings. I went to the local assessories shop here and they say the locktech model they have can fit the Camry but the push start disable feature is not working coz the wire not suitable. Have to wait for new batch to arrive.

Looks like more and more owners are joining! Welcome!

thanks for the info, i guess i wait for the new batch then

p/s: waiting for the pros to share how he getting such insane FC

Hi Lexanoir,

No la, I used to cruise my ride along the way. Avoid any unnecessary acceleration, then it should be good. Yes, smooth and easy is the key to fuel saving. I always keep my meter below [power, white zone] keep it around [eco, green zone]. When the traffic condition is below 50km/h, use full EV to utilize the battery instead of engine. If you notice, [Eco] got two zones, green and yellow. Keep your meter (left) in Green zone.. then it will be fully using electric(provided you have battery).

Why RON 97?
Basically it is recommended to use RON 97 as long as your engine is > 2.4cc
RON = Research Octane Number [standard measure of a motor or aviation fuel] The higher the octane number, the more the fuel can withstand compression before it detonates.

RON95 is good for car with lower CC, for i.e when I'm driving Persona, it is not advisable to pump RON97 because Persona 1.6cc is not suitable to use RON97, it won't give me more power.

In return, filling a vehicle(>2.5cc) with a lower octane rating than the one specified by the car manufacturer may lead to pre-ignition, a scenario that would ruin the car engine in the long-run or even result in an explosion. Generally, higher octane fuels are used for vehicles with higher compression ratios. So if you're driving Ferrari and filling RON95, your engine will be ruined in long run.

For the pedal lock, let me capture it tonight for you.

Reference
http://www.businessinsider.my/is-ron97-rea...w64X2pO5jUx0.97

Yeah, thats the one. But mine has the push start disable feature. BoUght it in GLS Auto USJ 7.

Display meter will show actual value (blue indcator for average, not the green one) if u reset after filling full tank. I've done several test & calculation to confirm it.
My average FC only between 14-15km/l per full tank.

If u want to check fc per trip it will display on green bar chart after u turn off the engine. This fc per trip can go up 29km/l for short distance driving (under 60km/h) since in EV mode.

Actually if u read the Camry manual, they recommend and RON above 91.

Wow. thanks for your informative reply. i will try the RON97 when next pump

Price bro?

Ron91? or 97 ya?

SURVEY :AVERAGE AGE ON MALAYSIA CAMRY USER?

normally people tend to say camry are for uncle in Malaysia, bt i dun think so especially this generation of camry look so young and sporty with the super nice lala sport rim, (everyone keep eye on the sportrim and ASK whether i modify the rim.).

So , what age the most driver here ?

Me 25

This post has been edited by lexanoir: Jun 11 2015, 11:12 AM

Me 27

haha u guys quite young ya. im 32
the RON recommended is 91 and above. so 95 and 97 is also ok.

WOW all of guys very younglah, I going to get mine one next week.
HAHAHAHA, I thinks I uncle already, I'm 42.
How the the Toyota camry hybrid, any issues?

never too young or old for it! welcome to the club!
so far mine just 1 week old. cant comment much. much ask other owners here.

Im 33.. Some of u are so young and can afford this car.. Impressed..

I have the car for almost 2 months.. Wife drives it for work and i drive only during weekends.. So far about 2800 mileage and no problem.. Happy with it..
For those young owners, when i was 25, i was only driving a Mazda 3. Money used on property investment and worked out for me.. Now relatively comfortable.. I hope u guys save some money for investment in this current economy..

THANKS for elder advise. this is what my dad teaching us youngster also. Investment for future . im starting on it this year also . ngam ngam found a new house property, hope everything smoooth

No prob. Get those sub-700k ones.. Freehold, good location, reputable developer, subsale also can.. Wont go too wrong..

MY dad get me a 1.2 one, he say pay half half consider as my final married gift later on (still single now)

Good to have help from parents.. That's why im working hard to provide headstart for my kids in the future.

im agree im fortunate have help from parents, but i also did my best to work hard to multiply myself . stand on the shoulder of giant to aim higher

can i know how old r u now? just to put myself on a yardstick...

based on user here . camry user are varies from 25-45. its a widely accepted car.

I'm 25 as well. Actually I didn't plan on buying any car until Tesla coming into Malaysia(which I hope for 2 years back). Getting this car is a sudden plan because my younger brother need a car and I gave him my Persona. So I'm researching some option for my next car and lucky enough Camry Hybrid is launching that time. So without much hesitation I just made my booking.

Not a fan of super car / luxury car, what I appreciate is the technology together with the car. Tesla will always be my first choice, but since it's not coming into Msia anytime soon. I just got myself a Camry Hybrid.

Yea, many 90s nowadays won't put too much money on property. My friend rather get a Audi TT instead of getting a house... My advice: house first, car later. Totally agreed with what Coolken saying.

Looks like the camry is not uncle car anymore

AGREED with bro, i previously damn kiam siap to buy a car, been using the small i10 (my sis leftover after she further to study) until i accident and total lost the car.

The reason i buy also appreciate the hybrid technology. I not guy who care the outlook whether uncle or not, i just wan comfort ride since my job require me to travel long distance as often. honestly ,sound system is my first priority and par with the NVH which is the key to a decent sound quality too. if any car within budget is come with better sound system combine with a good NVH, totally will be my sayur

This post has been edited by lexanoir: Jun 12 2015, 11:08 AM

Nissan Teana 2.5 also has good NVH and decent sound quality but i think nissan is kind of cold car, not many using the latest Teana

That was my 2nd choice actually , but currently camry come out with 10speaker + best NVH + hybrid bonus = triple kill

If on a budget teana is a pretty nice choice as well, don't forget it is way cheaper as well ( after discount maybe around 10k cheaper )

Hello,
Can I join for this thread??
I'm not driving this car at the moment (hopefully soon) but interested to know more detail for my dad too

WELCOME BRO!!!

Feel free to read the discussion and ask shall you have any question.

TQTQ!!!

Wow! I feel old in this group... hehehehe...I'm 38

By the way, can I check with those who have already used the mirror link.
Is it true that when your phone is connected, this impacts your audio from other sources?
As in you cannot play any music from your USB drive or radio, if your phone is connected via mirror link?
I was told of this by a friend who drives the Honda City.

Also, I am having a problem charging my phone via the car's USB slot, as in it doesn't charge.
I read an american article on the Camry that which states:
"You may be annoyed when you find out the Camry’s USB jack cannot charge a tablet or other device drawing more than 5 watts"

Is this true? Do the rest of you guys have the same issues on charging via USB?

I still wait for the car deliver, haven't deliver yet, hopefully next week can have the car.

What phone are you using? I haven't try to connect thru mirror link. Waiting for other SIFU to share some tips here. As for USB port, I can charge thru this port with my iPhone. Haven't try to charge a tablet before though. One thing is when I charge my iPhone via the USB port, i will be able to connect my phone using IPOD mode (basically quite the same comparing connecting via bluetooth). Just that it will display your songs info when you connect via USB.

Wow more n more ppl joining in! Welcome!
Anyone realize the GPS maps provided is by navitec and its dated 2012???!!!!

My gf iphone no problem using the usb charge but not mine samsung. Charge slow like no charge. This is forcing u to use qi charger as well

Sorry,the map is 2014, but very inaccurate. So far only manage to link Bluetooth also. Mirror link cannot. Any luck guys?

Did anyone manage to download the so called launcher app?

Another owner reporting in from the north. Taken delivery of the car for three weeks now doing about 3,000KM. So far so good. Fuel consumption is crazy. 46 litre can get about 600KM in Penang city driving. My CX5 skyactiv is no where near there. Taken in to KL and the FC is even better in Klang valley.

BTW the mirror link doesn't work with iPhone, i connected and downloaded the apps but seems like nothing there

Welcome!! We are getting about 14.2km/L after 3000km

Hi guys,

Thanks for the initiative to start this thread!

Received my car on 25-April and satisfied with the FC before until I read all your previous messages here! how could some of you achieve up to 19km/L while I only manage to get 13.5km/L on city drive....

As for the MIRRORLINK, done some testing and google search, there is an APPS provided by Samsung called DRIVELINK for samsung phone to link to the Car-entertainment unit, unfortunately, Samsung have discontinued the update of this apps from Android KITKAT version onward.

I'm using the SGS5 with android Lollipop, Lollipop come with "mirror link" option on the setting but the JBL AVN refuse the connection despite i've try with the micro-USB 3.0 cable.

Check with SC on the first service and they don't even know what mirror link is, I think we have to raise this concern to UMWT directly and make sure to appoint a "knowledageable" support center for this AVN.

Hi guys,

DO you think the whining sound from the motor "Regenerative Braking" when braking is annoying? I understand from some PRIUS and PRIUS C owner that the sound is normal as the "by-product" of hybrid system, however, I really think UMW should provide a better soundproofing to mute out the whining sound, even though the camry range is not as luxury as the Lexus ES300h and NX300h which using the same hybrid motor + engine, but this annoying sound should be putting off from Camry as well like what LEXUS cars does!

I've complain this to the SC and on the mytoyota.com.my online survey, a UMW customer service guy called me to find out more about my complain, as expected, standard "professional" answer from them "will bring up to the technical team attention and see what they can do...".

As the first batch owner of the Camry Hybrid in Malaysia, may I request your co-operation to raise this complain to the SC on your next service? they will definitely answer you "this is regenerative braking sound which is normal for hybrid car, PRIUS also same...", please tell the SA that told you this to go and find out whether LEXUS ES300h or NX300h having the same annoying sound that can be hear clearly in the cabin.

We need LOUDER VOICE to kick UMW butt to look seriously into enhance the soundproof to mute out the motor whining sound, please help!

QUESTION : ANY1 know how this car alarm work ? how to make up the siren ?
sometime in mall forgot where i parking and is it anyway to sound up the alarm using the key?

try to read the MAP micro-SD card using my PC and seem like the card is encrypted, can't read the content of the card... how do you know that it is Navitech?

I don't think we can do that, let me check again on the manual tonight.

Hi,

The sound is not on high pitch, it's hard to describe in word, let me try to "spell" it out here... it's sound like "uuuuuuuuhhmmm...." when brake gradually from 40kmh to near standstill / standstill, especially on slowing down on the speed bump, slowing down when approaching traffic light, it's sound like the star-war space ship landing.

Oh okay... looks like different situation here.

Mine was from standstill 0km/h and when you try to accelerate till 20-50km/h there the whining sound will occur... i tested test drive car also same .. so nothing to complain in the end...

maybe u can test their new car or test drive car
