Toyota Vios Owners & Discussions Thread

[niky]

First time I measured it (full tank at auto stop, same dealer, Petron XCS), got ~9.1, then 10.2 and now I'm getting ~12.7 km/Li on my 1.3E A/T (route sta.rosa ~ las pinas) and My odo is reading ~3200 km. Cruising speed at 80~90 kph on SLEX (Niky, thanks for the tip) although minsan di ko namamalayan nasa 110~120 na ako :D

So FC seems to be getting better as the Vios gets "broken-in".

Should be able to get about 20 km/l on the highway (even with the auto) when it's broken-in fully. The big problem with your route is the hills (between San Pedro and Alabang). The trick is simply to try to carry momentum up without pressing down harder on the gas, then let yourself speed up a bit on the downhill side (again, without pressing harder on the gas).

The real problem is traffic... but if you can avoid gridlock, I think 14-15 km/l mixed is not an unrealistic goal.

Thanks add_L. Siguro nga magiging matipid pag na break-in na ng husto.

Hello mga bossing. Nung thursday ko lang nakuha bago vios ko na 1.3e at. Parang medyo malakas gas consumption nya. Ganun po ba talaga or magiging matipid din sya later on? Thanks

As per my SA, it would improve over time.

By the way, how's your driving style? do you manage to maintain the green ECO light to be activated most of the time?

Major PMS yan sir. Check the manual kung ano ang mga dapat i-replace. Afaik, brake fluid, MT gear oil, inspect brake pads, at syempre change oil and filter. May iba pa since major yan.

Yung new vios may Eco light. I wonder if this feature can be ported sa previous gen. vios since same engine lang naman. Just a thought.

thanks sir chikselog... share ko lang po pala kanina habang pinaglalaruan ko ang gas pedal while engine is running, every step on the gas i heard a sound sa engine bay like this sound "chooggg".. parang hangin ng hinihigup ang tunog. is this normal.?

[Devin miles]

Normal po ba ang 500 to 600 idling rpm? Sometimes shoots up to 900 rpm? Lowest is 500 rpm na ramdam na ang nginig ng makina a bit.

[renzo_d10]

Sakin bumababa ng 500-600rpm pero mabilis lang

[kimbon]

same problem din na encounter ko sa vios 2010 as mentioned below by devin miles. dinala ko nga sa casa at twice ko na nga binalik sa kanila coz m not satisfied sa service nila. sabi ng SA nireset daw nila yung computerized throttle idling using a laptop pre-program at linis daw sa makina pero ayun ganun pa rin as in walang pagbabago. :-( Guys baka may idea kayo how to solve this problem, Pls help.... Thanks in advance..

Ako sir 600rpm lang tapos pagpasok ng ac minsan nahuhuli idle up kaya me onting nginig. Pero halos hindi ramdam parang compre ang nagvivibrate sa start up. Tpos pagbitaw niya surge to around 800to900rpm then balik sa 600.
