Hi. Hingi lang ako advice sa inyo. I'm planning of be part of the Vios group. I'm planning to get a Vios 1.5G A/T.

Kaso may mga nabasa ako about the updated version na coming soon. Sa Philippines daw walang papalitan sa exterior but the engine and transmission will be changed -- Dual VVTi and CVT. Sabi baka daw sa June pa ang mga updated versions sa Pilipinas.

Sa tingin niyo po ba mas maganda na mag-antay sa bago? Malaki po ba ang mga price increases between updates?
Iniisip ko kasi baka hindi ko na makuha sa promo rates yung new unit unlike if ngayon ako kukuha.

Thanks in advance sa mga replies.

If you really want it na kuha ka na ngayon. You won't go wrong with the current specs.

BTT: shell user ako, vpower nitro. Kanina pa empty na kasi ako at petron lang pinakamalapit na station. Filled up with xcs pero i feel sluggish sa takbo niya. Bakit ganoon?

Dual VVTi and CVT is a good bet if you are aiming for the A/T variant since the 3rd gen is not as good with its current fuel efficiency compared to its earlier generations...

based on history, there have been always a price increased when new models comes out, even within its same generation, expect minimum 80k siguro (wild guess ko lang yan)?

mag hintay? its up to you, no idea ang real world results ng Dual VVTi + CVT pero theoretically mas efficient siya (but we can never rely on theoretical alone, kaya nga tayo nag actual (aka real world) test)

pag lumabas yong new Dual VVTi + CVT (kung lalabas nga) eh makaka kuha ka ng good discount dun sa luma version...

had the opportunity to join a plant tour sa toyota manufacturing plant sa laguna c/o vios club of the philippines...

the Q&A portion wherein you can ask the head engineers of toyota stated on the question of which fuel is best for our ride, they say based on the big three, they recommend the brand with the star, this is also what they use on their plant and the one they dispense on the cars they manufacture.... also the one with the sea shell aka "kabibe" was recommended by them, but sad to say, they say no with the brand with the letter "P" (sad because our own county brand is not recommended by the largest auto maker in the world)

but fuel results varies from person to person, we are all unique, some of us can feel the results, some of us can't even tell... but for me, i believe what the engineers at the manufacturing plant recommends and uses as they won't use a product on a brand new vehicle that may put them to shame and complaints...

Thanks for the reply. Decided na ko sa 1.3E Vios tapos hindi ko akalain na may tough choice pa na kasunod A/T or CVT. Been reading AT vs CVT reviews/articles -- toss up parin between the two. Hindi convincing ang both sides.

Re fuel: hindi ba ang katapat ng vpower nitro ay blaze?

Okay naman daw CVT pero may reports of being underpowered, lalo na considering I'm getting the 1.3 variant. Baka mas mafeel ko na underpowered kasi my outgoing car is an old 1.6 A/T. But fuel efficiency is a very inviting factor.

Sa ngayon wala daw units ng vios na dumadating (sabi ng ahente) baka in preparation of the updated models. Sana they remain competitive with the pricing or gawing very enticing ang discounts ng outgoing models.

blaze afaik or what indicate on the label was 100 or and shell nitro racing were only 97 or

shell nitro +, caltex gold and xcs were 95 octane rating

before im using shell nitro + pansin ko lang medyo mabilis sya maubos unlike caltex gold

itanong mo rin sa SA mo kung ano yun miscellaneous, tuition fee?
also the silicone spray, itanong mo din kung para saan.
raket din nila yun cost ng brake cleaner spray, ilan bursts lang kaya nagagamit nila per wheel. hindi naman nauubos ang isang bagong bukas na lata per auto.
though at minimal cost, even the sand paper na recycled lang galing sa ibang nagpa pms.

[Synth007]

Hay naku yan din iniisip ko tuwing pms. Palaging may break cleaner... nauubos kaya nila yun 1 can.

i wonder... what is "brake cleaner"?
is it a liquid.. a spray.. or a round basahan priced at 3 for 5 pesos on the street?
heh heh.

Correct! Ano kaya sya... sometimes pinanood ko habang nililinis yun brake caliper saka yun brake drums... parang may inispray na something then niliha ng konti. Naisip ko sya na kaya yun? Hahaha. Then again i wonder what is a silicon spray. O well casa makes us wonder all the time...

Brake cleaners are sprayed onto the brakespads, calipers etc to remove dirt, grime and brake dust from a pressurized can. Really cleans the brakes well. Hindi sya basahan na manually pupunasan lang ang surfaces. Kelangan talaga na spray para tanggal ang dumi. Try youtube mga brake cleaners. HTH

additional info, hindi na uubos ang isa spray can ng brake cleaner sa isang sasakyan, malala na yong 1/2 ng lata ang magamit, average 1/4 lang ng content ang nagagamit, pero di ka naman pwede bumili ng 1/4 or 1/2 can diba... kaya win x2 pa din sa mga stealership! (dealership/casa)
