Not my Camry la bro., my clients. I had done a couple of battery replacements for different Camry models and they are ok. Normal battery tester to detect battery status. Nothing fancy.

Ok here is the update on the Myvi 3rd Gen battery replacement. I didn't try to switch off the Eco-Idle function during the battery replacement as I was sweating bullets after the install and I didn't want make the seat drenched in my sweat either. Damn hot. I will definately do that when they return from KL.

Anyways everything went smoothly and the following day (yesterday) it was ok. On their drive back home after shopping at 3pm, the owner called. I was invited into their Myvi and the Mrs. pointed out something was amiss on her screen as there was a black bar across it and there was a buzzing sound when the aircon was switch on.

Alamak I thought to myself takkan I screwed up the battery replacement procedure ? Cannot be lah. Panic sial. This is not my 1st 3rd Gen Myvi I have done also. Done a couple, all ok je. So I agreed that they return home first and I will come shortly to try to work out why this was happening.

Showered, packed my gear and headed to their place. I informed the owmer to start the vehicle as I wanted to record everything as evidence for HQ and Perodua Service Center. Funny thing, the black bar across the screen disappeared and so was the buzzing sound whatsoever. Then the owner suggested we drive out following the same route they went earlier to see if that would trigger the same result again. Nothing happened and that puzzled the hell out of me and the owner too. So I told the owner I would go to Perodua SC to next day (today) to enquire about this.

So was at Perodua SC discussing about this today but without the car, my friend there couldnt really help. And when I informed him the problem disappeared after I reached their home and test drive their Myvi, that even puzzled him more. Got problem but like got no problem ???

Today the owner was extremely glad to inform me that even at 6.30pm her Myvi was ok. No weird bar and buzzing sound when the aircon is switched on.

Now I dont think I want to rush out immediately if there is any battery kong calls anymore. When I am on site and the test shows that something isn't right with the system and the owner decides and insists a battery replacement should still be done, then the risk will be borne by the owner. If there isn't any risk, I will gladly do the battery replacement for them, if however there is any risk detected, it will be on them. That is the problem with improper usage of modern cars. Crazy sial. If so sensitive that until a battery replacement can trigger such fault to incur minimum repair bills from Rm150 onwards, owners of modern vehicles better know what exactly they be doing, otherwise bayar je lah.

Retirees are trying to save on expenses by using as little resources as possible.

Turning off the Eco-Idle function will allow their battery to last much longer than if the function was turned on.

Just leave it there. If you get someone to remove the entire Eco Idle system from your vehicle you will void the vehicle's warranty.
