hilars888 Posted January 12, 2006 Share Posted January 12, 2006 Just wondering why the x-trail 2.5 got 180 hp while the crv's 2.4 got only 156? a clear mismatch?.....well, d gud thing for crv owners is the resale value :cool: Quote Link to comment

Vehicles with large and heavy bodies need more torque to get it moving faster from slow speeds. Honda probably put more emphasis on initial pulling power than top-end speed. Quote Link to comment

My Serena has the same engine with X-trail, yet x-trail produce 150bhp while mine only 145....but this (crv and x-trail) is clearly a market mismatch, alot of buyers are much aware of horses under d hood these days....thanks anyway!

miles70 Posted March 9, 2006 Share Posted March 9, 2006 What price range bro iyong damage mo, considering na maintenance lang siya. 4k pa lang ang reading ng sa akin, para mapaghandaan pagdating ng mandatory 10k maintenance. Quote Link to comment

Alucard Posted March 11, 2006 Share Posted March 11, 2006 Sa pinas, Civic. Pero dine ngayon sa kinalalagyan ko, mas mabenta ang Toyota. Mas mabenta pa nga dito Nissan compared sa Honda's! Quote Link to comment
Ferrum Posted March 12, 2006 Share Posted March 12, 2006 Toyota. Mas mura ang maintenance at parts. Quote Link to comment
thrall Posted March 17, 2006 Share Posted March 17, 2006 My civic 99 is still doin good after 110000 km. engine ok ilalim nagpalit na pero ok nanaman. Gusto ko service ng honda pag dinala mo sa casa kmpletos rekados pati mga recommendations kasama. Yung toyota ko ok din namn 96 exsior takaw lang sa gas. Service wise bulok sa toyota antagal mo na nakatambay wala pa asikaso. Sa Isuzu naman pinaka bulok ang service para mong dinala sa talyer mabuti pa sa gas station mo nalang dalhin kesa sa casa ng isuzu. Quote Link to comment
