Bought a Toyota Vios 1.3 E Sulit ba?

**LiempoBoi** · November 1st, 2011 07:46 AM

Yes sir bumili po ako. Pero wala pa po sa akin yung unit. This week daw darating yung unit sabi ng toyota cubao. Dapat December pa with Beige pero wala na yung P15k discount kaya nag blue nalang ako kasi yun lang daw meron sila.

Given your requirements, its a good buy.

+1, sulit na kung sa sulit IMHO!

But only you (TS) can really feel if its okay or not for you!

Tanong ko lang po kung sulit siya sa pera na binayad ko. Minsan lang po ako lumabas at wala po akong pakealam sa looks o performance. Gusto ko lang po matipid sa gas at maihahatid ako kahit saan kong gusto. Ito po kasi yung nirecomend sa akin ng mga taxi driver kaya ito na binili ko. Downpayment lang po bayad ko di po full. (50% 1 year to pay). Last question po: ok na rin po ba yung features nito?

Salamat

Bago yan, so wala ka dapat problemahin, unless malas ka talaga at lemon makuha mo.

Yung maintenance napaka-mura, tatawanan mo lang yung presyo. Haha. Kaya kung ako sayo, follow the 5k kms interval, or the given monthly intervals.

Sa gasolina? Ok na Shell Unleaded diyan.

**vinj** · November 1st, 2011 01:24 PM

Regular unleaded fuel will do fine on the Vios; no difference in consumption or performance as against XCS (our old, carburated Sentra also prefers XCS but all our newer cars go with regular unleaded.. or LPG).

If sobrang bihira mo naman gamitin and tumatagal talaga ang load ng fuel in your tank then go for Petron Blaze so it wont deteriorate/spoil even after long periods (since it has no ethanol).

I'm also 6" tall (but medyo payat naman) and I can never get a good driving position in the current Vios.

**LiempoBoi** · November 1st, 2011 08:17 PM

Pero ok na rin ba yung XCS gamitin dito? I mean tatagal talaga yung gasolina sa tank kasi ayaw kong ubusin. Gagayahin ko yung style ko sa '96 corolla ko. Hindi baba sa 1/4...ayaw ko ng 1/2 medyo mahal yung gagastusin sa gas. Per 5k po ba? Medyo matagal abutin yan sir. Lumipat na kasi ako sa Fairview...biyahe ko lang na pinakamalayo ay sa Cubao. Sa Corolla ko, ganun din except noong bago pa siya...umabot hanggang Tarlac. Pag malayo yung trip, park sa mall tapos taxi na :D mahirap kapag bumper 2 bumper traffic. Do you consider to upgrade to HID? or stock nalang. Just in-case na mag night driving ako (which is rare) baka mahirapan ako makita at minsan may mga driver na nakakasilaw yung mga ED ng kotse...di binababa sa mas mababa...dun ako naiinis. (Walang laban yung headlights ng corolla ko...ewan ko lang ito) Hindi rin po ba prone sa scratch yung rims nito? parang hindi alloy...parang yung mga nasa lumang corvette (sa tingin ko). And may mga major problems ba sa Vios?

Thank you talaga sa mga reply.

Mukhang tama rin yung sinasabi sa akin ng mga taxi driver.

btw, kaya pala ako bumili muna bago magtanong dahil sa excitment and need to retire na corolla ko (baka mga 2 years pa ibenta ko na to) and malaki trust ko toyota.

Whether you use XCS or unleaded, both will deteriorate after several months per inputs given before by others who use ethanol-mixed fuels. If you want to be sure, then go with Blaze which has no ethanol. But with regular unleaded or XCS, both will run the same on your ride.

The stock headlights of the Vios are fine. If you want better performance, go for stock-output H4 bulbs such as Osram All Weather or Philips Xtreme Vision.

IMHO sulit naman siya lalo na kung hindi ka pa ganoon ka expert mag drive kase talagang kaya ng Vios makipagsabayan sa mga driver na tulad ko na ngayon lang ulit nag drive at sobrang lakas din ng aircon kahit 1 lang tsaka sobrang tipid kase yung 15 liters namin umabot na ng isang buwan kase ginagamit lang siya pag kelangan lang talaga....=)
