i think those of us who bought avanza pre fuel price hike will thank the gods coz my wife wanted to trade in her vios for an Innova 2.0 (she didnt like the legroom of the Livina at the back)! luckily we couldnt agree until a friend suggested looking at the avanza and then we decided it was a good fit, so we got it. more space and same engine displacement made it a good idea.
eh, so you guys inflate the tyres by how much? do you follow the recommended tyre pressures?

for stock rims and tyre size, recommended tyre pressure is the best to follow. unless if you only use your car on highway, then over inflate by 10ps for better fuel economy.

Yes, there is still Avanza owner out there. But not so many use LYN as their place of hang out...

Ahoy to all the avanza owners at here


My dad is planning to get a new avanza (1.5G). I wonder if there's any special promo goin on for this car?? Btw, how's the fuel consumption of this car?? How's the ride of this car ?? Is there any improvement as compared to its elder sibling ?? There was once i sat on a 1.3L first batch, n the ride was way too bumpy =.=.

Hey there, you want sleek look, powerful engine and comfy ride? Take a look at Chery Eastar MPV.

Once you tried the power of it's Mitsubishi 4G64 2.4L engine, and the super easy handling and turning ratio, you'll fall in love with this MPV. One finger turning man with full load (7 people on board)... syok man!!

Low profile and stylish with LED lights in the rear, good looks and comfortable ride compare to Avanza, Rush or Innova.



Take a look at the features:

1. Nice elegant look, esp the beautiful LED rear lights.
2. Good features you can only find in higher price MPV: Dual Airbags, ABS, EBD, Steptronic (auto & manual transmission), Mitsubishi 2.4L engine, 16" alloy wheel, CD + MP3 player with USB, Dual Tone Horn.
3. Good petrol consumption from the feedbacks here, RM100 for 450km.
4. Sleeker than Avanza/Innova/Serena but roomier than Avanza/Grand Livina/Rush/Citra/Rondo. Sits 7 people comfortably.
5. Auto thermostatic adjust air-con with blowers on last 2 rows.
6. 3 years warranty and 1 year free service. Use Mitsubishi spare parts.
7. NCAP Safety Rating of 4.

hello there!

a proud avanza 1.5g owner here!

my baby boy just 2 years old this month..
sigh.. but i glad i am avanza owner!

VALUE IT FOR MY MONEY!

Glad to see that this thread is revived, but I think now all Toyota owners, Avanza and others, now post in the Toyota thread.

Just drop by some time to this threads but need to dig it up.

Change my rear absorber to GAB and it reduces bumpiness more... Don't believe it, try it... plus more confident when layan corner...

guys,
i have q.. is it good to buy old avanza due to int rate currently at 2.88% or new avanza at 3.5%?

And if i would like to buy old avanza now, is it worth it? because now is Nov meaning already end of year. in just to month the price will be drop off??
plse help me on this.
tqvm

New Avanza... S version? I think if you buy 1.5G avanza (2007) still worth it since engine spec still the same only some cosmetic and additional accessories addition

the new facelift does not look as nice as the 2006 1.5G

Agreed with you...

Other than double din cd player, other was the same as previous model. I saw there is 1.5E model also...

Noticed the gate shifter but it still 4-speed automatic gear box. I thought it use triptonic gear box.

hey guys....it's me again.

Juz wondering how's the FC for the 1.5L version? Personally, i've sat on both 1.3L and 1.5L respectively (Both are auto models). All i can say that the 1.5L has a smoother ride and a lil bit less bumpy as compared to its sibling.

Wow, this thread has been revived again.

Sorry, can't help on 1.5 FC since I drive a 1.3 only.

1.5E? manual ka?
i want!!!

1.5L shud be better than 1.3 since it got more power/torque to pull the car
my weekly petrol consumption from Puchong (Home) to Glenmarie Shah Alam (office)
RM30 - 250km (60% start stop, 40% smooth driving)

Thx for sharing ur car's FC. It seems that avanza is very fuel saving .

hehe....also driving red/maroon 1.3 auto...1st batch...hehe.....

ps - actually is family long distance car...the car most of the time stay at home...wakaka

hei, my bro avanza abs is dead. squeaky noise while driving. any good abs or spring to recommend?

been considering adjustable abs like GAB and TITAN. wats the pros and cons using on an avanza
