Toyota Corolla 10th Generation Altis Owners [continued]

[vinj]

Feeling ko 215/45R17 or 205/45R17 since yung 2.0/1.6V naka 205/55R16 tapos 195/65R15 yung 1.6G/E.

Maybe 215/45 nga. Im using 215/50 right now although the thought of going 225/45 enters my mind when i swap tyres later on.

I'm sure the Altis is capable of swallowing 225s just be cautious of the correct offset para walang sabit.

205/45r17 is going to be small. 215/45r17 would probably be what they put in.

Ugly rims. Would've preferred something along the lines of the most recent Vios Sportivo with 17" rims.

Hi! We think of buying this car for my wife's car plan. 65K discount outgoing model na daw kasi sabi ng SA. Im currently driving a 1st gen vios and i can say its a very reliable car. since i already own a toyota, we are still undecided and still choosing between this and the civic fb . FB is alot more expensive and has a 1.8 engine which i think a gas guzzler. what things should i consider to choose the altis over Civic fb and all other cars. We also have on our choices all on same price range the 3rd gen vios, jazz,lancer, avanza, accent hb.

^ The Civic is faster and has a better steering feel/response but overall comfort is for the Altis. My sister has an FB and personally i prefer driving the Altis as i always found the Civic dashboard too cluttered already. I also noticed some shift shock in the FB Civic 1.8.

On another note, i have an annoying "tok" that intermittently comes out when braking suddenly (or with more pressure than usual); it came out right after the 20,000km service. I usually comes out after the car has been driven for a while and the brakes are hot already. I brought it back to Toyota Shaw the next day and they cleaned again and put some grease on the calipers/brake pad shims and the sound went away. After a few days it came back. Anyone experience this?

Hi vinj, I also have that "tok" sound. i haven't figured it out yet as to where it is coming from. Like yours, mine is intermittent also. Its not always there but i experience it when i brake.

Another Altis owner i know who posts here (Kinse) also has the same problem on his 2009 Altis. Intermittent as well. I was driving in the rain today and noticed the sound was not as evident as when it's hot and dry. I'll research a little more on this and post any findings.

may ganyan din Vios namin. intermittent "tok" sound sa brake. grease lang din ginawa ng casa.

[JohnM]

Have the same tok on the Vios. Mostly comes out on hard braking. So greasing the back of the pads didn't work? I'll have BGC look at it on my 20k next month.

Thanks vinj for the reply. Will you still recommend the altis? Any other issues?
Sir how about fc? Is it already EPS?
thanks

The greasing fixes it for a few days then it comes back. I wonder what caused it though because prior to my 20K service, walang-wala naman yung problem.

My FC started with a dismal 5-6 km/l when I got the Altis. But now after just 2.5k on the odo I can go as high as 9-10kms/l depending on the traffic. Worst ko na 6 ngayon, yung tipong super traffic na yan na wala masyadong galawan. Basta wag lang harurot ng harurot and be gentle on the accelerator. BTW my route includes Makati-BGC area so medyo traffic pa. Still hoping na gaganda pa FC ko after the 5k pms.

I've owned both brands (Honda and Toyota) extensively enough and so far i've been happier with the Toyotas whether they be brand new or second hand purchases. The Hondas are more fun to drive but as to overall and long-term ownership, the Toyota seem to age better and comes out to be my preferred choice for my needs and wants. I grew up as a Nissan guy though... until Nissan Motor Phils. slowed down in bringing out the new and good stuff locally.

kelan kaya ito lalabas dito

Update on this: I had Toyota Shaw regrease the caliper pin and they checked the shims/clips on the pads. The intermittent "tok"soundis gone again but for how long, i don't know. The mechanic said it's common on the Altis and Vios though i never encountered this on my 2007 Altis and it's not evident on the 2007 Vios of my in-laws as well.

Most likely first quarter of 2014. But I like the Euro version better.
