You bet!!!

Normal to expect some rusty parts here and tehre as YOM2007 Latio stocks have been sitting in the warehouse for 1 year before it was "cleaned up" and delivered to you.

Hi, Do you hear the sound only when you turn the steering?

When cruising on expressway, around 60/70 KM/H. Normal road and slow speed is okay.

i took out the instrument meter to install HUD then i realised the metal structure all rusty. previously oredi discovered rusty parts below glovebox and areas below driver's side.  basically my whole front metal frame all rusty  :mad: TCM only touched up the rusty parts below the glovebox when i complained to them during 1k service. they 4got to do the area below driver's side. I didn't go bak and complain anymore as the GM gave me a warranty of 10years for any interior rusty parts. me oso lazy to go back to them for the parts behind the meter when i discovered recently :D

Hi Jazz,

Oh, rev to 3000rpm?

My FC improves after chg my tyres to GR80 from (stock Toyo).

Haha. Not sure chun or not.

My rpm hit 4000rpm on msia's NSHW if i drive above 140km/h.

Normal speed will maintain 2000rpm at 100km/h.


Regards.

typo? should be 3000rpm at 140km/h right unless you load really heavy stuff in your car.

dun nid to strip the entire dashboard. u can just check the area around the glovebox 1st. there are about 6-7 screws securing the glovebox. juz unsrew them and pull out the glovebox. u will be able to see the metal frame. do be careful not to pull the glovebox too hard as there is a light bulb attached to it.

paisey i didn't take the step-by-step pics of stripping the dashboard. but there is a thread on installing aircon cabin filter. there are pics on how to reomve the glovebox  :smile:
