Any comment about Toyota Rush in terms of fuel consumption and maintenance?

i was a toyota rush user, the fuel consumption is rm0.18/ km. For me, it is quite high FC (compare to toyota vios - FC=rm0.11/ km). Anyhow, be extra alert, bcos my rush has just been stolen 1 month ago (Well, i will be getting the offer letter of the insurance claim probably by next wk).


No doubt it is spacious but too high FC lahhh.

i want to know how long u guys change ur tyre?
it been 2 year already,my vios not yet change the tyre.
my miles now is 16000km.

IMO, It all depends on how you drive. Frequent heavy acceleration sure wont gives you good fuel consumption. And btw, rush is 1.8 isnt it ? Vios 1.5 only. The combustion of vios is not that powerful compared to rush, thus causing a higher fuel consumption.

i see.im also using bridgestone,but dont know turanza or wat..cause my father changed it when bought the car.

anyway,my friend said every year have to change tyre wo,cause he said tyre got expired date or something like that...

Yeap. Tyres has expiry dates. But my dad dont want to change for me ahah .. cause driving for short distance only. Drive to school and around m own housing area only. It still provides good traction on wet roads and turnings.

I thought 1.5 only?

One big prob with Rush is its bumpiness. Its one of the most bumpy SUVs( or cars for that matter) I've ever seated in.

Rush 1.5 ? No wonder fuel consumption high la ... need to drag such a big car

Not sure wor..fuel consumption..as long as for one full tank less than RM100 im happy..i drive to and fro school only.

What do you think of its bumpiness? It feels like an earthquake of magnitude 6.0 everytime i go though a bump

You felt a 6.0 magnitude earthquake before ?

Your fren is right. but the expiry date for tyre is 4 years fr the manufacturing date. unless you brought the old stocks.

Yes, Rush is 1.5 same as Vios. I almost bought 1, instead i bought Vios due to vry good FC... But remind u that Vios only fit 5 n Rush can fit 7.

it is depends on the manufacturing date and also manufacturer... Michelin give 6 yrs, Toyo 7 Yrs... standard is 5 yrs manufacturing warranty so the expiry is 5 yrs... but that depends if your tire do no have any minor cracks at the side wall u can still use it... my uncle use CC1 for 8 yrs no problem, town drive only... so depends also, but recommended to check the tire condition monthly for cracks... if there is any cracks then u need to change it already although u still have 50% of thread left

hi all stfu,

i am interested to buy altis and considering 1.8e or 1.8g

is it worthy to spend 8k for this:

The Toyota Corolla Altis 1.8G adds:

■Chrome side protection mould and door handles
■6-disc in-dash CD changer with MP3 and WMA support
■6 speakers
■4-spoke leather wrapped steering wheel with wood trim
■8-way electrically adjustable power driver’s seat
■Wood grain finishing on centre console, dash and door panels
■Vehicle Stability Control (VSC)

If you drive on hi-speed frequently, take the G spec.

■Vehicle Stability Control (VSC)

hi all,

am planning to change tyres for my vios soon.. appreciate if could get advice from sifus on which tyre is good (quiet / performance).. and recommendations on where to change tyres.. preferably in KL area (segambut / old klang road)..

thanks in advance!

Would like to update my profile, already change my previous car (Vios) to to a new Corolla Altis 1.8G with pearl white colour, love the ride very much and the colour.

Just get the 1.8G version if you able to afford, no regret at all. Heard that 2.0V is coming in this August and will be cost RM10,000 more than the current 1.8G version, so expected will be around RM130,000. Compare to Honda Civic, RM130,000 2.0V Corolla Altis is a good deal, since it's fully imported from Thailand. The quality is totally different there, and the comfort too.

what tyre size u using bro ??
