  • ^Possible din ba yung ganyang feature sa Ford Fiesta 2011 S?
    Gusto ko kasi mag auto lock sya pag nakalimutan once pumalo na yung speed nasa 20kph mag auto lock ng kusa.


    Yung ETACS Decoder software works with Mitsubishi cars, e.g. ASX, Mirage, Pajero, Lancer, etc.

    "ETACS is Mitsubishi's unique system that controls all of the vehicle's electrical components including the headlights, door mirrors, windshield wipers, etc. It provides peace of mind and convenience and supports driving by controlling all of the vehicle's equipment precisely in a variety of situations."

    For Ford cars, I don't know kung ano software ang gamit nila. Or if you can DIY program the ECU.
  • Sir ang nakalagay sa dashboard ang avg is 7-8.4km/l pero sa napansin ko. 1 bar ng gas = 30-40km lang


    try the full tank method..... pag fill up mo ng gas, take note of the time and the date then zero the odometer... then fill the tank to automatic full....

    drive as you would normally then at 100km distance travelled fill up again, preferably at the same gas station, to automatic full and note the amount of gas needed... then divide by the distance travelled.,,

    ito usually ginagawa para malaman yung fuel mileage.. yung iba full tank, then drive until it goes to near empty then full tank again.... you get the same results regardless...

    saka I do not rely on what the gauge says.... iba ang method niyan, e...
  • I am not questioning whether to buy old or new.... what I am question is about how is technology being used in the automotive industry....

    is this tech really improving our cars or are they just trying to "add value" to it without improving the basic function?
  • I already answered on previous page, they are improving on safety, convenience, troubleshooting, etc. We do not walk backwards di ba? If they don't improve their car models, wala bibili nyan.

    Very stiff ang competition sa auto industry. Ang seselan kaya ng mga Pinoy buyers. Lagi may reklamo.

  • may nabasa ako recently tungkol sa traffic sa EDSA..... majority daw ng 1.5M vehicles na dumadaan sa EDSA is public? and of those numbers, mga 50 to 100,000 lang ang private?

    any truth to this numbers? parang galing ata sa MMDA ang numbers na yan.....
  • hingi lang po sana ako ng feedback sa 92 sentra jx carb type di po ba mahal ang maintenance ng ganitong model? thank you.

  • kaya marami ding bago dahil low DP offer
  • para sa akin naman majority are private vehicles. ang dami pang bago na sasakyan at mas lalong dumadami pa ang bago. hehe


    does it matter kung private or public ang sasakyan?all have right to use public roads.
    trabaho ng government ang gumawa ng bagong roads.
    nakakadismayang isipin na parang 50b lang ang isang bagong expressway - TPLEX (P30B);SCTEX (P60B)
    pero hindi ginagastusan. namimigay si Pnoy sa CCT ng halos P70B per year!!!

    sana sa bagong kalsada na lang ginugol yung pera.
  • kaya marami ding bago dahil low DP offer


    masasayangan ka sa pera na mawawala sa iyo dahil sa interest pag nacompute mo yung total final price!
  • kalaunan lang ng iba naiisip yang total price kasi nasisilaw na agad sa low DP.

    Hindi lang kalsada ang solusyon sa trapik. gobyerno masyadong focus sa kalsada, may progress sa paggawa ng riles at tren.
  • Ako rin wala balak bumili ng brand new dahil sa laki ng patong. Always 2nd hand triple check lang talaga ang pag bili para siguradong walang sabit haha
  • hingi lang po sana ako ng feedback sa 92 sentra jx carb type di po ba mahal ang maintenance ng ganitong model? thank you.

    Up ko lang.. hihihi. :)
  • speaking of 2nd hand, which is better in terms of maintenance and FC, 2014 vios 1.5e MT or 20 14 Kia Rio 1.4 MT?
  • @ceejay
    Hindi naman sir as long as wag mo iiskip ang PMS ng koche lalo na kung pang harabas. Check lagi odometer chaka bwan para sa PMS. Maintained yan

    @lucky023
    Paps kung maintenance paguusapan mag toyota ka na. Spare parts everywhere. hehe
  • salamat po sa sagot milesdsc...

    Yes boss pwede na rin. Kung matawaran mo pa tawaran mo kasi paso rehistro eh hehe
  • ^^^ thank you sir. :)
  • Spare a budget para sa pagcheck ng makina. Mas ok na yung sigurado.

    ok yan, wala pang mga ecu yan. kaso siguraduhin lang na hindi former taxi yan.
  • @lonewofl

    thank you po sa reply, tinanong ko po yung seller, good condition naman daw po at walang bulok ang kaha at hindi ex taxi.

    Hindi ko naman sya ipangluluwas pa Manila. Target ko lang talaga eh yung mga pang malapitang byahe lang lalo pag naulan, kaya pa kaya nitong makapag Tagaytay kung manggagaling ka ng Biñan Laguna? hehe

    Kaysa Owner Type Jeep or mag tryc yung mga ganitong model at presyo ng auto lang ang hanap ko. Thanks! :)

    I'd suggest testdrive ng malayo( at least 20-30 mins) hatawin mo sa xpressway.. then observe. Lalo na pag di nabbyahe ng malayo yan or at high speeds.
  • Help, Civic Vti 96 A/T

    Was driving in the highway tapos biglang parang nag neutral.. Checked the shifter and it was on Drive.
    Pulled over, tried returning the shifter to park, then to neutral, reverse, drive, d2 and d3, pero parang naka neutral parin sya. Killed the engine, popped the hood, checked the belts and ATF level, seems fine naman, no burnt smell and seems to be clean. All seems to be in tact. After around 3 minutes binuhay ko ulit ang makina, and switched to Drive. Kumagat. Drove for a few (<100m) and the issue returned.. freewheel na naman.

    Napaabot ko sa nearest servicing area, PTT station. Pinalitan namin ng fresh ATF just to check it since around 2 years na hindi napalitan, but still the issue persists.

    Called my mechanic friend, initial thought is the transmission itself ang problem. But I want to be sure first, konti lang ang kaya gawin nung mechanic sa PTT about the problem, at baka may maka recommend na mechanic sa may carmona area or anyplace nearest. Thanks!
  • kumakalas.... pedeng tranny yan. not much can be done on an AT na ganyan ang symptom unless dalhin mo sa casa, where ang gagawin nila is palit tranny.....

    at wala akong kilalang shop na nag specialize sa pag ayos ng AT FWD tranny, e.... dito pag sira palit na lang ng identical surplus and hope na ayos yung binigay sa iyo.....
  • @hakz

    Ngyari na yan sa Sentra ko, intermittent ang problem, turned out to be the Speed Sensor sa transmission. Pa Scan mo sya while jacked up and switching gears then check if nagshshift sya or may fault na madedetect.
  • @haks
    if tranny talaga sira nyn, meron ako kilala nag rerepair ng AT tranny taga muntinlupa just PM me for the contact, but advantage sa time and gastos kung palit surplus na lang .
  • @all - thanks for the inputs guys. I appreciate it!

    @romeox - scan you mean obd? wala nga po pala akong nakuhang check engine light when it happened.
  • wala ring CEL nung sakin, pero lumabas sya sa Scanner, VSS Error. Usually pag intermittent ang problem and nareresolve ng restart engine it means electrical related. Pacheck mo rin yung selector switch sa tranny mo (NSS) baka hindi nya madetect yung gear lever position mo. Sign nito is pagnilagay mo sa reverse and di iilaw reverse lights. Worse part is baka solenoids sa tranny. Kung internal damage naman such as clutch packs dapat slipping muna ang tranny mo in a certain gear and hindi agad mawawala lahat ng functions.

    carb boss madali lang maintain yan... sa maintenance siyempre kapag may napapansin ka na wag mo ng wait na lumala... laging check ka lang ng fluid leaks sa parking area mo... check mo takbo... ang normal na siya ng Sentra boss is power steering and yung carb niyan... i mean normal pero kung like ako may kilala akong magaling na mechanic... di ka ititirik... tumirik lang ako kasi nakalimutan kong mag pa gas... ay oo isa pa pala is yung gauge... normally faulty yung mechanical ahahaha....

    source? Sentra FE 2001 owner ako boss... essentially b13 eccs ito parehas makina ga13ds carb din...
