Hi bro, now 17k d. Will service before cny.
FC 100% city driving around 400km
How about yours?

wow.... 17k...
hmm.. mine clocking to 8k soon..
FC started to drop a bit after 10k service last month.. hmm.. possible the oil still new, and need to run it for few k mileage first and see if the FC improve later..

Anyone did wheel alignment and balancing for their vios? Did the mechanic said need to replace new chamber nut or screw? Is it true? Not suppose to be adjustable?

i did the alignment and balancing during my 10k service, but they didnt replace the chamber nut or screw.

but my last 2004 vios did change chamber nut once, as it has already "cracked" (or the shape has deformed, cant remember)

Just back from SC, two parts to be replace, PVM harness kit and PVM ECU kit.. The have similar case reported before... And they switch to use newer version of the PVM kit... But luckily its under warranty, no payment needed..

Ordered parts... ETA in 1 week time.. Then need to go SC again to replace the parts.. Haih..

i done a few times wheel alignment and balancing. never replace nut/screw.

In KL?
Can intro the shop?

Yes, these few days spent 5mins daily in office car park, to wipe the front, sides and rear, Easy task With 1x 100% microfiber cloth and 1x small bottle filled with water(kept at car bonnet). and wipe car aerokit anytime, anywhere if looks "dirty". Haha.. that's the reason choosing car white color is about.

No need frequent waxing.. Recommend wax full car every 10 - 12 months. But for me, I apply wax and touch up hard removal stains once I see it.

I done it at Toyota Service Center Taman Perindustrian Puchong.

Car about to reach 1 year in another 2 months.. Hands starting to get itchy already. Planning to install sport rims. Contemplating between 16 and 17 inch. What are your view guys? I'm leaning slightly towards 17 inch, true enough because of poisoning by friends. Suggestions? Thanks n cheers.

Usually all these replacing chamber nut and screw is scam one, they just want to charge extra.

Ya. A lot scam. Can intro any honest tyre shop in kl?

Just got my vios 2017 1.5E, tested the DVD-AVX and the sound radio and mp3 seems rather distorted or noisy. Anyone have such problem or advice. Thanks.

only radio or happens during cd n usb too

It's cheap but you can try the C6 brand. It's a lot more reputable. Get the 4300K ones.

This one won't kena warranty right?

16" tyre price isn't that much different than 17s. You will just sacrifice some pickup, fc and comfort.

But 16" is the sweet spot. Rim width should be less than 8jj. Optimal size will be 205/45/R17.

Personally, I'd get gunmetal or black lightweight rims with 195/55/R15 as I'll be planning to lower the car with Tiens/4Flex/Eibach/GAB about 2 fingers width. A sweet spot between acceleration and stability. Thais always use this set-up.

Did 20k service today, talk to Accessory Dept, she show me the 2018 shark fin antenna photo and cost 134.60 without paint and labour cost. For rear GX bumper, it cost 16xx .. With this price, you can install whole set aerokits outside..

Shark fin antenna, Outside accessories shop cost 26 , but black color only. For other color, order from accessories shop and ask them include paint + labour cost.

All CD, DVD, Radio, USB, Bluetooth. Adjust everything still same, noisy, distortion and not clear. Voice like choking. Listen a few seconds already Tak Boleh Tahan have to turn it off.

Just installed 17" rim with 205/45/R17 tyre, so far so good with 5 people loadeed.

Thanks for your input man.. That rim though, doesn't look like 15" right.. Most probably 16?
