All New 2013 Toyota Vios (3rd Gen)

AFAIK Es do not have immobilizers so the method above works. There is a page in the manual that shows the difference between keys with and without immobilizers.

Cars with immobilizers will only start if the key with the chip is inside the car. There might be extra logic in there that prevents the car from starting when the alarm is tripped.

base on experience, i have to share the keys to a driver as well... I get to use the keyless entry... but if i forget to NOT to engage it (when i know the driver will use the car next).... driver will just open the door manually... (alarm will engage)... but all he has to do is start the engine (using the regular key)... the alarm will stop, and the car, car locks will just work properly....

so no real issues on my part who carries what key...

just my 2 cents

ang scandalous lang ng alarm tuwing papasok ng sasakyan yung naka regular key.

There are alternatives...

1. Buy another oem key from toyota (around 16k)... Yes i did ask before
2. Buy a 3rd party alarm (around 5k)... You can have it work with the oem key... But i dont like the idea of having two different remotes... Also had a Bad experience in the long run... If one of the alam fails... Puwede maging immobile yun car
3. Just live w/ what toyota gave us (2regular and 1 button key)... I chose number 3... Was even considering to remove the battery of the button key, para lahat manual... But end of the day, im just conscious whether i engage the alarm (button) or not....

Just my 2 cents

pang isang tao lang pala talaga yung keys kung ganun ang setup.. o well nakakatakot lang kasi na andali natin masasalisihan if ever sa mga dark places na nakakaalam ng ganitong system nung vios
first pag pindot mo kasi nung wireless, automatic unlock na lahat ng doors.
pano kung magisa ka lang?

no big deal naman kung lahat ng doors mag unlock. still best to be cautious pag nasa alanganin na lugar.

thanks for sharing bro!

for the poster who'd be sharing with the wife, i guess option 2 would work.

Mga sir normal ba na parang kumakatok makina pag over shift?

1.3 E MT unit.

Example, naka third gear ako, then when I come to a street corner, need ko magbawas ng speed as I turn.

Instead of shifting to 2nd gear, I stay at 3rd gear kasi parang kaya pa naman.

Thats when I hear na parang may kumakatok.

Yung sound nya is parang may nilagay kang something sa electric fan blades.

Is this normal?

Thanks

sir I dont think na engine knock yan. downshift to 2nd when cornering, kakadyot talaga if you slow down to turn on 3rd gear
