Yea.. lately before I purchase VIOS, Honda City FL also came across my mind.. However thinking for long term usage and reliability, Toyota is still the way to go! Today been crawling on LYN of Honda City FL, many complaints on the rattling noise from the seats, dashboard etc, even got the ABS modulator noise "kruk" when cruise at 40kph.. phew.. plus Honda City they just give you the very basic accessories (not to compare the safety features), dont have leg room ambient light(add on, rm3xx), no tinted(tinted package start from rm1xxx), no door visor(rm xxx), no dashcam, etc..

Not I want to bash how bad is Honda, but Honda everything you need to add on as extra package which cause extra $$$ on it.. VIOS come in 1 set, everything have, tinted, arm rest(base variant), leg room ambient light, car dashcam, door visor, etc.. which I think you no need to add on much, it's like you purchase the car and just drive, no need so troublesome to add dash cam, visor, etc.. even now VIOS across all variants come with standard safety features like VSC, BA, EBD, ABS, which I personally think it's good enough, however the airbags is really something that cons compare to Honda City.. but hey, do we hear as much airbag issue recall done by Toyota compare to Honda?

Just my 2cents.. Cheers..

Yes. Toyota really give good offer. All variant with full safety feature and push start.
No reason to choose Honda city

Pros
Rear Disc brakes = put a stop, efficient, confidently and prevent hit collision (Vios). No accident.

4 - 6 airbags = protect passengers (City) during accident happens. Got hit accident and Also important safety But hit happened.

The only main safety different is, no hit and got hit. Nobody wants car accident, and all want to prevent it.
Own wisdom and decision making to choose between..

Noob question: when Toyota offers cash rebate of x amount and/or ang pow/duit raya of x amount, is the total cash rebate deducted from the total selling price of the car model, or it is a rebate for the downpayment?

How much rebate they offer?
Deduct from the total price.
U still have to pay 10% from the after rebate price.
Make sure it is On-The-Road price. 😬

OMG.. It hurt.. try method recommend by @hightechgadgets8 , but I think you need to do this on your own le..

I also bought the Meguiar interior detailer, and piece of microfiber cloth, then I do the interior myself, it took me almost 45 minutes, but after result was awesome, the interior looks nice and clean..

I put on door panels, dashboard, steering, gear lever, arm rest..

Saw sc selling michelin XM2. No cc5 also

i meant the tyres that comes with the car, not the one SC is selling.
since it is a sport edition, i was wondering if they put in other tyres, since CC5 isnt exactly a performance tyre.

Hi, I get it from here --> http://www.lazada.com.my/meguiars-g13616-q...nK&ff=1&sc=ERI0

this one only does cleaning, and restore the interior look.. it will not make the interior looks glossy, please take note.

Yes.. Just spray on the surface and start wiping, but be careful not to spray on to electronic device such as HU, power window switch, gear lever area, etc.. Just avoid any area with electronic stuff.. But those place still can be wipe, just spray on the microfiber towel and wipe..

This detailer purpose is to clean the dirt or dust on the dashboard or interior, so just spray and wipe, no need any pre clean..

Dear Sifus, need your opinion on this matter.

I copied this from another website I found as I felt that it is a similar issue and it more or less explained the situation.

"I think it can't engage the 4th gear. On highway, after smoothly exceeding about 70~80kph, it like gone into neutral, engine just over-rev on its own. I slow down and then there is a jerk, presumingly engaging back to 3rd gear."

I noticed something similar to the over-rev part. So any opinions on this? Is it a gearbox issue?

What am I looking at in terms of cost of repair if needed?

My Vios was bought in 2011 1.5J Auto

I think all this years never do major service. Only normal service.

Recently at February, at 35,000km did normal service at Toyota Service centre. Other times, over the years I will bring it to the ENEOS workshop near my house for normal service.

Thank you.
