  Mahal nga dito labor. Parang sa Rapide. Okay din daw sa Goodyear Servitek.
  
  Gas stations and your small mekaniko shops ang cheapest labor.

  Guys tanong lang kung anong function ng switch/button na ito?
  
  

• lxi97 on 28 Jul 21 @ 07:29 PM #

  Manual choke. Sa mga lumang sasakyan lang yata yan. Pampataas ng idling para di mamatayan.

  rain x or wax.. pero pansinin mo muna kung makapal na ang acid bulid up sa salamin ng bintana, baka need ng glass restorer..
  
  

  ^Gano kadalas dapat pag reapply nung Rain X sir?

  
  
  kapag walang bubong yung garahe sir, nauulanan naarawan mga 2 weeks naman..
  pero pag may bubong months din bago mo mapansin nawala na yung pagbubutil butil ng ulan yan need mo na mag lagay ulit..
  
  effective din naman ang wax., yung rain x ko kasi minsan bumakat sa hood nung naipatong ko yung bote

  Ooh, nice upgrades ah. Pinaka nakaka halina para sakin yung 220mm ground clearance. Tinapatan na yung Xpander. Kung tama alala ko, 205 lang yan dati eh.
  
  Kelan kaya yan magiging available locally?

  tinapatan nila Rush at Xpander sa high ground clearance.

  Next year pa siguro yan, lagi naman tayong delayed sa lahat.
  
  Wala pa nga yung 2022 Civic and HR-V.

• TheUninvited on 09 Oct 21 @ 12:13 AM #

  Panalo yung bagong Almera, all turbo charged lineup.
  
  Plus yung totl may active safety features na.
  
  

  On the range-topping VL Turbo N-Sport, the Almera comes with the complete safety suite of features. These include the 360-degree around-view monitor (AVM) with moving object detection (MOD), forward collision warning (FCW), intelligent emergency braking (IEB), blind-spot warning (BSW), rear-cross traffic alert (RCTA), and hill-start assist (HSA).

  ^ yes, that is true. Experience ko sa inverters, ang dali masira at mababa output. Napaka ineffecient ng convert ng convert. Mas ok nga mag invest sa large capacity powerbank na kaya laptop.

  totally worth it yan 845, ganda ng shine sa light colored paints
  will be comparing it to TW hybrid ceramic or meguiars soon, will update this thread
  isa pang matibay yun micromagic from blade, tagal ng beading kaso di lang maganda shine
