Based on engine's raw power

[Sedanlover]

i used to have a 2003 lancer cvt.
it was a most comfortable drive, but not as responsive as the competition (the altis). i was always left behind when the green light flashed on. as jut above said, the cvt robbed the engine of its power.
and it guzzled gas. something like 6-7 km/li in the city.
but the passengers were the most comfortable, compared to the competition at that time. passenger space, ingress and egress were/are, in my opinion, the best at that time, and even with today's current competition.
also, in my opinion, the toys' buttons were better placed than the concurrent altis'. except for that terrible stock HU of the lancer.

I don't feel being left behind sa cedia ko. Ewan ko kasi manual siya? Hehe
Medyo offtopic dr.d kailangan pa ba ng freon ang aircon ng cedia? Or cleaning cleaning lang or both?

Yup, big difference in power between the manual and CVT Cedia. It had the early generation of CVTs that felt like a sliding clutch every time you floored it.

All cars still use freon. But remember that freon isn't like fuel that is consumed over time. It is continually recycled in the car's aircon system (like oil in your car's engine). It will only need replacement after a long, long time, unless there's a leak in your aircon's lines.

The best thing to do is have your aircon system checked every 20,000 km. Not sure with the Cedia, but many cars are available for aircon cleaning without having to bring down the entire dashboard (which usually results in rattling).

the only problem i had with the aircon, was the aux fan. it died, and the oem cost nearly 9K.
i got a generic aux fan w/ housing for 900 bucks. the mechanic filed off a few heres and theres, and we had it installed. it was still running fine on the day we sold her.
and yes, it was frigid.

our cvt did shift down when floored. walang arangkada!
it actually saved my mom's bongabilya, when the car went sua one day.

My mother told me that our cedia's aircon smelled like something she can't explain ahaha
I told her to turn off the aircon and max fan and leave it for around 5 to 15mins before turning the engine off
