Just wondering, is there any problem so far for Myvi cars owners..

Why you don't ask in the MyVi dedicated thread?

got too many many rooms to mods

lolz... u talking about pros or cons??...

Nothing. But for MyVi auto, don't rev your engine to high rpm, I suppose it will cause deterioration in the ATF and causes it to go rougher. Right now I'm having weird noise on the auto gearbox (because I rev to 6.5k rpm often ). Coming Saturday I'm going to renew the ATF and sees what happen.

I suggest if you rev often (the K3-VE engine is rev happy!!!), choose manual. Otherwise I think the ATF need to be replace every 10,000~15,000 km.

Normal driving no problem at all. I have drive another civilized MyVi EZi with similar milleage as mine, no weird sound.

haha bro..you kena prob like me la..
i always floor the car kau kau now the gearbox got some high note metalic sound whenever i try to rev it higher

Changing ATF every 15,000 km is too soon lar.....minimum 20,000 km only change.

and also try to avoid genting in this car. the brakes in my uncle's myvi has to be replaced after not even half a year

Don't use the brakes going down hill. My father once decend down a 40 degree ramp(carpark ramp) and his feet wasn't even slightly tapping the brakes. He lets the engine do the job fully. The car was at a constant speed going down and no brakes were applied. He just puts his foot on the brake in case of an emergency.

You can go to Genting with this I believe. My family made a trip to Frasers hill(close enough to genting? Forgot already. ), no probs going down or up the one way hill road.

for downhill, try not to put 100% workload on the brakes... share the workload with engine braking (by engaging into low gear)... yes, engine braking might hurt ur clutch and engine in long term... but at least u wont face a failed brake situation....

When the driving patterns aren't conventional, you have to break the stupid rule.



Yes. At first it is subtle, now the noise is more stand out.

myvi is the best manual car in that price range...
overall quite satisfy with the pickup, it's a 1.3cc engine and dun compare to those 1.6cc engine...

1.3l manual ok edi. good FC With less $$$ maintenence and yea, pickup n top speed nice. 120kmh still no noise and take it to 140kmh still ok.

I suspect his driving skills got problem

Don't tell me he drove all the way up with D and with overdrive on

don't ever get the 1.0cc model. severe lack of power. i know, coz my dad have one.

my frens only problem is the suspension too weak n it broken after hit a manholes...

Yes it's a common problem for myvi where your steering will vibrate when you apply brake. I heard the new disc brakes are doing all right now.

Hey even some Honda City/Jazz also facing such problem.

Your father is Malaysian Takumi, no brake needed when going down from Genting. LOL!

sorry to ask this question coz im still a noob... which gears are low gear? i usually see low gear on the roads but never understand which gears represent low gear... can elaborate more pls? thanks!

btw, so far no problem with my silvi... the only problem is the rear absorber/suspension got some sound... will ask the ppl when go for the 1st servicing...

low gear.... 1 or 2 in manual case...

in auto its 2 or L
