i have a vios 2011, ncp 93. recently found out when i turn roundabout and press brake, will have metal grinding sound. but no sound if i did not step the brake while turning.

i brought to two workshop :

first workshop say it is ABS issue, need to change abs pump and not sure if it is working, might need to change abs sensor. ABS pump only cost 1200, ABS sensor 1800.

another workshop say is steering rack issue, have to replace steering rack, about 750 including workshop.

anyone got experience on this issue and what to fix ?

Go to more workshops to troubleshoot if not you won't get your answer.

Around that ballpark. Still fine.
Bando is synonymous with beltings.
Gaido is still okay. Hope it will last long.

Anyone can recommend a workshop to repair Vios cracked lower arm?

Apparently lower arm is not under the 5 years warranty.

Already giving way?
How many mileage ady?  biggrin.gif
Any other problems with your ride?

So far mine is still alright but mileage is quite low. +85K.
Need to change absorbers though. Getting worn out.

How about your fuel consumption? Mine is getting 380-400km only nowadays. (90% city driving though).

7/8 year mark with this guy.

Already sold it?  bye.gif

Hi guys, just want to ask for some tyre recommendations for Toyota Vios 2021

I’m looking for tyres that are quiet on the road and perform well overall (grip, comfort, durability, etc.).
Any seasonal promotions or good deals to recommend?

Also wondering – do you usually buy tyres online (like Lazada or Shopee) for cheaper prices, or still go to tyre shops directly?

Appreciate any suggestions!

Do you guys think at 50km spark plugs should change? Seems to notice drop in fc to be only about 300km per 29l. Previously maybe at least 320

mine is 2019 model.. clock 40k mileage.. my car cross bump have sound on 2020.. SC detected is absorber bush.. so done change it.. but the case not settle and SC cant detect the sound due to the sound not louder enough for them to diagnose.. at the end of 2021.. the sound become louder.. this time even when turning the steering when crossing over the uneven road also will have sound and SC detect is steering rack problem.. it took 6 months for me to waiting the steering rack claim.. so change it on last month.. so far dont have any sound yet.. so maybe the sound is cause from the steering rack..

QUOTE(StuartLee2015 @ Nov 26 2024, 04:29 PM)
Pardon me, how's your car now? Mine cross bump at slightly faster speed like 20kmh will have this krak krak noise. I changed most of the front suspension liao. Absorber , cover and mounting, satay bush , sway bush, lower arm ori. Everything new and original toyota. There's no vibration from steering wheel and dashboard. I guess engine mounting is good.

QUOTE(celdric @ Oct 31 2023, 03:31 PM)
hi guys, for 2020 vios, anyone experience the weird noise "klook klook" from the absorber kind of thing when passing through bump? mostly during wet rainy condition, didnt observe such issue during hot sunny day.

QUOTE(Maple66 @ May 23 2024, 02:12 PM)
hi, have you found out what is the root cause for the "klook klook" sound?
I'm having the exact same issue. The sound will only occur while passing through the speed bump during rainy conditions.

QUOTE(powerdave @ Aug 6 2024, 11:48 AM)
