Thx for the reply.
I have wax the car before the chip.

Any additional step for me b4 apply the diy?

The EZY touchup have a kit which include all the necessary paints (which include preparation paint).

Just follow the steps in the kit with no extra step?

Thx

If you bought the kit, it should have everything you need - including the wax/grease remover.

Wax & Grease --> Basecoat --> Clearcoat --> Rubbing Compound

You may want to sand it later, if you still can feel the bumps. To me, I just leave the bump

I still can live with the bump. Can't achieve perfection for wear n tear stuff.

I am worry it will get rust.

Thanks for the advise.

Hi guys,

Any advice on applying water repellent for 1.8 seats and armrest?

1.5Turbo should have been your pick. I never hear regret from users who chose that yet

izzit all SC got this machine to test the battery?
some SC for toyota just use the load tester for battery..no paper print out

When I sent in mine for service yesterday, SC informed it's a standard check that they'll perform

if they use the load tester to test..they only can test the voltage with load on..but cannot test the health of battery

isn't someone posted the pic of battery test on previous post

Hi, I just got my 1.5 TCP couple days back. Plug my iPhone with cable and connect to apple car play, I notice that the maps could be use here... I try to type my destination and the maps just shown blank... any idea?

My 1.5tcp is 1 yr old now. Still feels very excited each time driving it. Probably because my low mileage in it. Only 15k km done.

Being 1st batch, I've changed my ac compressor due to compressor clutch failure and also vsa modulator. Everything else is very reliable and solid. 0 rattling sound and NVH is pretty much the same as day 1.

Still excited about the way it goes in s mode and tackling corners. Still admiring the looks every morning.

My only complaint is no forward collision sensor. Tricky when trying not to scrape roadside pavement. Also the original enkei rims can be made somewhat lighter. Have not changed it because no aftermarket rims compliment the car better than it so far.

Overall 1 yr ownership experience: 9/10

also 1st batch 1.5tcp owner here. have the same feeling. done about 15k km too. My review is that everything about the car is rock solid. Except for wear and tear parts, EO and alignment done during 2nd service, the car still feel as new like first day drove out from showroom. the car coating was done at Regal Valet (Gyeon products) during a group buy last year and I'm happy to report the coating is still gleaming good. Despite NS highway drive at incredible speed behind lorry and all, stone chipping is at bare minimum. Tar and bird droppings can be easily removed. Windows is protected by Raytech security windows film. Absolutely satisfied with the solar heat rejection and smarttag with T&Go placed on dashboard is not a problem when going thru Electronic Toll Gantry. Most 1st batch owners will be renewing their road tax and insurance cover from this month onward.

Overall 1 yr ownership experience: 9/10

hope this helps. cheers!

my vsa modulator still not fixed. they always cant reproduce the noise and dont even accept my video recording

Drove my TCP last Saturday, noted some rattling sound from the steering part .... Sometimes yes sometimes no , got my car 3months so far no major issue
Except AC water drip into passenger seat and RHS driveshaft leaking

Wondering why rattling sounds appear out of no way

Thank you to lordwood and Alternation for sharing their experiences.

Placed my booking fee yesterday and looking forward to getting my new ride. SA said delivery should be by end of July. Can't wait!
