My second service at toyota taman midah, after the second found out the car performance different. The engine more responsive and pick up better. The down side is eco light off even light acceleration.
Anybody encounter this before?
Before this, i always drive with eco light on.

I am going for my second service coming 25th September. Hmm.. let me see if I encounter same thing with you..

condition for eco light not to appear

1. D mode, gear kick down
2. D mode, rpm more than 3.5k
3. D mode, speed less than 5km/h
4. Other then D mode driving
*
you forgot 1 more, when switch to semi-d mode, the eco light will shut off.

For what I've noticed so far is, the eco mode only off like when exceeding >3k RPM. As when I cruising at 140km/h, the RPM is at 2.5k but the eco light is still on at that speed with 2.5k RPM. This is what impressed me.

From google, All New VIOS using 2NR-FE engine, which from engine spec sheet, the idling for this engine is 700RPM, which is 100 counts more than previous engine model, 1NZ-FE idling at 600RPM only.

Let see any difference after 2nd service.

my 3 week old vios has this krok..krok.. not very loud but can hear when slow accelerate, it appear when speed between 30 to 50 after that the sound will gone. especially when slow in junction then slowly accelerate again. Hard acceleration will not have this sound. Is this normal?
*
Is it something like low speed, with low rpm, engine jerking?

I notice this in my VIOS too, but between speed 10 km/h to 30 km/h

Hi guys,

Do you know how to remove the scratches that boxed in red line? It seems my microfibre cloth also can contribute to scratches as show in the picture, the microfibre cloth is used to clean interior panel before, such as dashboard, panel, etc.. but today when drive to office parking, and I notice the scratches, and I try to rub it off with my finger, cant, then I tried with my microfibre cloth, then more scratches formed. Shit.

Dear sifus, any other options of cleaning that part is doable? it seems microfibre cloth and also done some scratches on it. Or my method is wrong? got other method? such as wrapping??

Hope sifu2 advise..

Thank you...

For me, usually i wipe surfaces with extra care by ownself using good 100% microfiber cloth also got light scratches..
apply waxing and problem rectify.. Seldom wipe dashboard, gear cover and steering.. I also Never send out Vios for car wash, except 1st 1000km service free wash by SC. Hmm..

I notice premium car wash shop may able to find solution for yr car gear cover scratches.. otherwise, leave it,  or get SC to get cover part number and price to change the cover only or dismantle the cover, spray another color??
so sorry, but continue asking for best fix from premium car wash or accs shop.
*
yea bro.. I tried using toothpaste last night.. it seems cant help much.. I try searching for wrapping or sticker just for the gear cover only.. havent try any polishing compound yet.. now planning for scratch remover solution, maybe can DIY on that.. if still cant, then my final solution is get it polished. If stills not worked, then possible just opt for new cover..

i really wonder what is the material used for that gear cover, damn so easily got scratched! even microfibre cloth can make scratches on it.

guys..just wanna if anyone here experiencing led drl not bright (2016 vios with oem drl). Usually the drl is bright and will dim if we switch on the head lamp (or t10 lamp). Now not bright as if i already switch on the headlamp.

Possible faulty DRL already. I think you should consult SVC for this problem already.

Been notice this problem too on newer gen of VIOS which comes with DRL. DRL still dim after switch off headlight, OR DRL still not DIM even after switch on headlight.

Hi guys,

Referring to the pic, does our current market provide any insulation rubber strip product that comes with clips and can be fitted into the clip holes as per circled in the picture? I believe this part if put strip, then engine compartment will not get dusty quickly.

Thanks.

Did my 2nd service around 3.2k mileage on September, next service would be around December or with 10k mileage. However, there is 1 things concerned me, is they put a sticker on my windscreen during 2nd service time, and it stated next service would be at 8k mileage, so if I hit 8k mileage before december, does it means I need to go service already? Or hit 10k only go service?

From the service guideline, it advise to change the engine oil every 3 months if you have severe usage on the car, while 6 months if you have normal usage on the car. For my usage is KL-MELAKA-KL and KL-IPOH-KL both trip once in a month period. Does it consider normal or severe? haha..

Thanks..

Not really work that way. Their schedule as below:

0
1k    (1k first service)
5k    (5k service, 4k compared to previous)
10k  (10k service, 5k compared to previous)
20k  (20k service, 10k compared to previous)
30k

So, it's correct that you need to service for 3rd time at 8k milleage because you already hit 5k limit.

Because, your car may undermileage or overmileage depends on your usage.

For me, I'm going to have 50k service on December, but my mileage currently only 35k, sticker wise they put 39k. So if I say I hit 50k only service for 50k schedule, then I need to use my car for 21k already only can hit 50k since last service.
*
But if they use the semi-syn oil, means it can go for at least either 5k/10k from the previous mileage right? 3.2k mileage + 5k = 8k mileage, I think this is the reason why they wrote next is 8k mileage on my next service. It's either 8k come first or December come first. But still I can opt for 10k usage right for semi-sync oil? Means if I already exceed 8k mileage but less than 10k mileage before December, but I still can use it right? until 10k or december, which any come first.

Thanks.

This morning went to Toyota Service Midah centre for my 10k servicing. I quoted for Rm560 for servicing. They additional recommend flushing injector, draining engine and killing germ in cabin.
Lucky i got the standard service price to compare to know why there is an additional cost.

The standard cost is 369 only

» Click to show Spoiler - click again to hide... «

so in the end you paid RM560 or just RM369?

Flushing injector eh? I just bought Caltex Techron Concentration Plus Cleaner last night to pour into my tank before I drive back to my home town Malacca here. My mileage just hit 5k++..

From my opinion, clean first then only repair electronic parts. At least the car is clean and dry before go to electronic part fixing.

not sure, but for me, I visited and searched many tires shops, cannot find GX rim in town, city, online for 2 - 3 weeks..

Put deposit and order GX sport rim from Service Centre, within 3 - 4 business days, rim arrives at SC, immediately get it install and quick donated out 5months old original rim plus bring it to friend house, to be fitted on advanza car later..
Use back original 15inch tires and tire center cap..

New 2018 Myvi sport rim got DUAL tone paint and will be outshines Vios J, E and G with many safety features.new 2018 Accord skip 2.0cc, opt 2.4cc. All city /hrv spec come with nice rim..  wake up call for UMW Toyota, to reduce many specs, maintain good STD spec or better safety/accessories/aerokit + rim.. skip optional upgrade items..give it all..

How about your body kits? I get quoted for RM1100 full set GX bodykits plus installation from ACM motorsport, located near cheras selatan there. Anyone been there before?
RM1100 is standard or over priced?

I know mudah got more cheaper and can get the exact same quality of products. But those seller located quite far from my place, after deduct petrol money, still got untung la if compare to RM1100, but from time wise will need longer travel lo..

Any advice sifu?

Thanks.
