mr_kindred23 Posted January 24, 2016 Share Posted January 24, 2016 Check mo if may leak na yung shocks mo. And try pressing down rear of your car, if pag release mo nag bounce ng malakas yung rear portion ibig sabihin sira ang shocks. Pero usaually sabay pagpalit ng 2 shocks para pantay ang sasakyan.tnx sa response..yep napalitan na namin both rear shocks..nagbobounce na nga siya kaya nagdecide na kami palitan...bt the main culprit pala ng langitngit ng sasakyan are the tires..nasobrahan sa bomba and almost 11yrs old na yung gulong...bihira gamitin yung sasakyan kaya di namonitor na nalumaan kami ng gulong...labas na yung side wiring/thread...kaya tumatama sa shocks kaya yun ang lumalangitngit...already replace the tire..205/40/17..nankang brand...again thank you sa response...

mr_kindred23 Posted January 25, 2016 Share Posted January 25, 2016 (edited) Use kayaba brand for your shocks for durability and replaced tires approximately every 6yrs or if pag pudpud na tire thread mo which ever comes first. tnx sir sa info...sa shocks eh napalitan naman na ..made in japan yng nahanap kong parts..i forgot the brand pero ok naman siya..kasi mostly sa mga store ask nila kung ano car mo..what year and model...then may listahan sila kung ano shocks available for the model of the car...and about sa gulong..tnx sa info...yun din sabi sa amin ng mga store owner..mostly 5 to 6yrs talaga dapat nagpapalit na...again tnx sa info.

camus Posted June 4, 2016 Share Posted June 4, 2016 (edited) Anyone out there know the difference? At EDSA cement is used and there is always deblocking that causes traffic the whole weekend. At C5, it is asphalt and overnight everything is fixed. Why the difference when both are DPWH projects? Why is cement also used in EDSA while asphalt is used in C5 and roads abroad?You need both concrete and asphalt. Concrete for strength and asphalt for softer and smoother ride. Concrete layer should be about 1 feet thick, asphalt about 6 inches. Here in the Philippines we cut both in half and that's why madali masira. Concrete natin around 6 inches lang, asphalt only 3 inches. And sometimes the concrete is exposed, they don't even bother putting asphalt on top. Probably they do that on purpose, so every year meron project where you can get kickbacks. Edited June 4, 2016 by camus Quote Link to comment
Husband's Lover Posted April 1, 2017 Share Posted April 1, 2017 tnx sir sa info...sa shocks eh napalitan naman na ..made in japan yng nahanap kong parts..i forgot the brand pero ok naman siya..kasi mostly sa mga store ask nila kung ano car mo..what year and model...then may listahan sila kung ano shocks available for the model of the car...and about sa gulong..tnx sa info...yun din sabi sa amin ng mga store owner..mostly 5 to 6yrs talaga dapat nagpapalit na...again tnx sa info. ang average lifespan ng gulong ay 4years lang, though depende pa din sa gamit kung daily mo ginagamit ang sasakyan mo or weekends lang.

Sethproth Posted December 19, 2018 Share Posted December 19, 2018 Life of tyres are usually 4-6 yrs. Beyond 6x pls change it even if its still thick. The rubber quality is already compromised by that time. And start counting from the manufactured date and not the date of purchase manufactured date is usually written on the side walls of your tyres. A lot of tyres are stocked in shops so be careful to check the dates. 1 Quote Link to comment

mrbig86 Posted March 1, 2020 Share Posted March 1, 2020 Worth it pa ba yung mga 90s na Civic, etc. na automatic at binebenta for less than 150k? Or magsasayang lang ako ng pera sa repairs?Kung kakilala mo yung pagbibilhan mo, at well maintained yung sasakyan since it was bought, then tingin ko okay lang. Pero risky parin yung ganun kalumang sasakyan. Tingin ko talaga if bibili ng 2nd hand cars, safer ang less than 10 years old na kotse na may mababang mileage (50K and below). Kung kaya mong i request yung maintenance record ng sasakyan, try mo i request, at make sure na wala siyang na miss ng preventive maintenance for the past 5 years. Kung may kilala kang mechanic na magaling, better bring him with you to check the status of the car. Or better yet, dalhin mo sa casa para ipa check bago ka magdecide. Kung monthly payment is not a concern, I suggest get a brand new one. 1 Quote Link to comment

Blue Boy Posted May 23, 2022 Share Posted May 23, 2022 On 5/20/2022 at 1:13 PM, kianacruz said: Hello! 2days left nalang ako sa driving school,  Manual Transmission (4wheels) kinuha ko for 12hrs, 2hrs per day. Marunong nman kasi ako ng matic.  Nag manual lang talaga ako kasi mas mura ang bayad sa practical driving pag manual. Pero wala akong balak bumili ng MT. Haha (required na kasi ngayon magdriving school ke marunong ka o hndi para makapagpa non pro.) Pero nung na try ko kasi mag manual sakanila, parang naging interested na ko mag manual nalang dn na sasakyan in the future. Though hndi ko pa naman sya as in kuhang kuha talaga pero gusto ko sya i enhance pa. Main problem ko na yung mamatayan ng makina pag magpa parking na (reverse na nakaapak lang sa clutch na nakaangat ng konti then piga piga sa brake yung turo sakin kaso namamatay talaga.🤣) saka sa pag U-turn din. Dba slow down (clutch, dahan dahang brake, while slowly preparing ng steering wheel papunta sa side na un, hanggang mag fullstop, pag sagad na dn ung steering wheel, bitaw na sa brake, bitaw din sa clutch. Tapos ayon namamatay na ung makina 🤣🤣 any tips po para hndi mamatayan ng makina sa mga gantong situations?  And pashare na dn po ng pros and cons if manual ang sasakayan and pinagkaiba nila ni matic. Parang mas gusto ko na kasi talaga sya kesa sa matic, or baka naeexcite lang ako and magsasawa dn soon. Hahaha!  Baliktad naman ako sayo. Lifelong manual tranny driver ako and kakakuha ko lang ng matic na oto. So far, I'm enjoying the convenience of driving an automatic car. Heto sa tingin ko ang pro's and cons ng manual transmission vs matic. Pros: 1) Mas may control ka sa acceleration ng sasakyan kasi manual nga ang pag shift ng gears. This is advantageous sa pag drive sa mga highways and expressways. Nakakabitin ang matic kasi nga minsan may delay sa pag accelerate ang oto dahil sa matic transmission. I would imagine na nakaka-antok mag drive sa expressway dala ang matic na sasakyan. Walang thrill. 2) Magiging expert ka sa pag drive pag namaster mo ang pag-drive ng manual tranmission. Pag nakuha mo na ang pag timpla ng clutch ng hindi namamatayan ng makina, pag drive sa mga hanging o uphill roads, reverse parking, bumper to bumper traffic sa EDSA - isa ka nang ganap na driver. Napaka-dali na mag drive ng matic pagakatapos mo makapag drive ng manual. Cons: 1) Nakaka-ngawit sa binti ang pag drive ng manual na sasakyan sa bumper to bumper traffic, lalo na sa EDSA. 2) Stressful ang pag drive ng manual kasi talagang aktibo ka sa pagmamaneho dahil sa pag apak sa clutch at pag lipat lipat ng gear. Hindi tulad sa matic na relaxed lang. 3) Mamamatayan ka ng makina pag naka-full stop ka at hindi mo nalipat sa neutral. 4) Puede kang mabitin at mamatayan ng makina sa mga uphill roads kung hindi tama ang pag-timpla mo ng clutch at brake. Magsasawa ka din kasi hahanap hanapin mo ang convenience ng pag drive ng matic na sasakyan. Pero okay din matuto mag drive ng manual para talagang mahasa ang driving skills mo.   Quote Link to comment
linkbizzkit Posted June 28, 2023 Share Posted June 28, 2023 Mga car maintenance/driving tips na natutunan ko: 1. Before buksan ang lamig ng aircon patayin muna ang compressor (A/C) to let the stale air out (siguro mga 10-15 seconds before turning back A/C). This will help prolong the life of your aircon system 2. One way to check if your battery is still okay is to turn on your headlights before you start the engine. Kapag namatay headlights ibig sabihin malapit na matapos buhay ng battery mo. 3. For manual users, tapakan muna ang clutch bago mag-start ng makina. Mas free magstart ang makina kesa naka-neutral lang. 4. For manual users, kung kelangan mo huminto tapakan mo muna ang preno bago ang clutch. This will help rev down the engine before coming to a full stop. Gives you more grip and control. Saves gas. 5. If in case wala kang choice at malulubog sa baha ang sasakyan mo, tanggalin mo kahit anong polo ng battery mo (mas preferred both) para hindi magshort ang mga electronics like computer box, car stereo, etc. Â Quote Link to comment
Shinju Posted July 30, 2023 Share Posted July 30, 2023 CAR Brand&model recommended for first time buyers? things to check and prepare before buying your first car.  Before nagrerent lang ako ng self drive, usually vios, mirage, suzuki (forgot the exact unit) yung nakukuha ko. Minsan nahihiram ko din yung honda city ng uncle ko pag nasa province ako since nasa canada na sya for good and stock nalang yung sasakyan nya sa province. I am torn between the car THAT I REALLY WANT, and a car na OKAY NA DIN NAMAN.  I mean, i want a honda civic. Pero parang for me, masyado syang mahal para gamitin on a daily basis. What I mean is, baka mas okay na I buy a cheaper one nalang? yung di ako magwoworry na baka malaspag agad or basta yung di ako magwoworry kung "okay lang kaya sya dun sa parking?" etc etc What do u think?
