Hey there, does all vios share the same springs and absorbers? As I tried to search the application list for eibach pro kit but did not mention anything bout 3rd gen vios NCP150. hmm.gif

Mine fit 100% and no problem so far. Do you have photo to prove your claim? hmm.gif

Hi, please kindly clarify if your K&N refers to part number 33-2930? I have not installed it because this particular model as stated in K&N website *link below* is used on Kia Picanto instead.

http://www.knfilters.com/search/applicatio...px?prod=33-2930

And the reason for me asking if it fits 100% tight without issue on the 3rd gen vios is because some users and mechanics claims that it does not fit 100%.

K&N products are design with precision and intended for specified car only.
My K&N for 2nd Gen is  33-2360. If the dimension for 3rd gen air filter is the same with 2nd generation then should fit with no issue.

Yes indeed, that is why I am curious regarding the 3rd gen vios as Speedworks mentioned that the Kia Picanto 33-2930 fits the 3rd gen vios 100% which I am not really keen about it.

However, I will try and compare with the 2nd gen to see if it is exactly same size.

this happens on my 2nd gen vios, but not 3rd gen vios. i believe tht is timing chain noise due to high load

I think my compressor bearing is faulty..sounds like "grakk grakk". Gonna try send sc to have a look during next service.
Somehow I feel 3rd gen vios quality degrading compared to earlier gen vios.

Sooner or later, you will start hearing dashboard rattling and I have no idea if UMW toyota SC is able to fix it.

Vios NCP150 Gen 3 engine air filter comparison.

Which K&N filter will you buy?
*
Hey there. From the attached image, please confirm if K&N 33-3018 fits Vios NCP 150 airbox perfectly? Also, where
can it be purchase from.

Because I've tried the 33-2930, first gen and second gen none of them fit 100% actually.

Thanks.

Which filter will u buy based on image?

Recently customers enquiring with me feedback most are selling K&N 33-2930 for vios gen 3.

The original filters 4 corners/edges are "L"shaped/right angle.
K&N 33-2930 4 corners/edges are rounded.

So I decided to take photos for comparison n let customer decide for themselves.

I have been selling K&N 33-3018 for vios gen 3 since April 2015 after ordering a piece to test fit on a regular customer's car.

Hi sturdy, yes that is one of the main reasons why I didn't buy 33-2930 due to the rounded edges.

Please kindly pm me more info on the 33-3018. Thanks

Managed to get these problems fixed for 2015 vios, might be helpful for you guys to refer if you have these problems.

1. Aircon dashboard panel right side larger gap - took 3 visits to completely fix it. 1st visit fixed but glove box panel not fit properly. 2nd visit fixed but result in air con still running even after turned off aircon knob.

2. Both rear wheel drums have rust spots, sc painted the spots.

3. Sc adjusted the door due to noise at right door when breaking and accelerating.

Hey, mind sharing which SC you went to? Thanks.

Thanks. Also, how do you find their overall services? Cause I'm starting to get fed up with Toyota SCs.

Complain this and that but yet they are just giving plenty of excuses to resolve issues.

Nope. Just that they prefer it stock standard.
