Considerations - buying an SUV

[_Qwerty_]

1. Maintenance cost kung change oil every 6 months lang baka nasa 5T to 6T lang yan yearly. TPL sa renewal nang rehistro yan nasa 600+ lang yan..

2. Anong arrears sa LTO? baka yung yearly renewal? Yes ikaw magpapa rehistro nyan.. mga nasa 3T to 4T yan kasama emission and TPL.

Pero considering na mag 10 years na yang sasakyan na bibilhin mo.. madami nang problemang lalabas yan.. so magtabi ka nang budget para sa mga parts na bibigay.. maganda din pa change fluid mo pagka bili and pasilip mo ang ilalim.. kung may mga papalitan na.. maganda magdala ka nang mekaniko para ma check bago mo bilhin..

Magkano po average cost ng change oil? Kailangan ba kahit hindi masyado ginagamit sasakyan?

Arrears - nabasa ko kasi na kaya hindi registered ang sasakyan eh ayaw bayaran ng owner ang registration fee, so may penalty sa LTO at para iregister ulit eh kailangan bayaran yung past years dapat?

Depende sa sasakyan yung cost ng change oil. In the case of diesel-powered vehicles, mas mura nga fuel cost pero mas mahal yung maintenance cost.

A small car with a 1.6L or smaller gas engine would normally use around 4L of oil. Fully synthetic oils are good up to 10k kilometers or 12 months.

Diesel-fed pickups or PPVs use around 7L of oil and they are good up to 5k kilometers. Euro-brand diesel-fed vehicles change their oil every 15k kilometers or 12 months.

Sa 2.4L na automatic, gasoline, magkano po ang average cost? Gasoline powered na lang po kasi nabasa ko na mahal nga ang maintenance ng diesel. Hindi naman masyado ilalabas sasakyan, nakagarahe lang emergency purpose.
Maayos naman mga kalsada sa amin pero malalayo mga kapitbahay at sa ulan din eh para medyo mataas kaya SUV plano ko, kumpara sa level ng ordinaryong sedan.

Salamat po.

Gas-powered CUVs/crossovers with 2.0L to 2.5L engines normally use around 5L of engine oil. I suggest that you use it from time to time than being stuck as a garage queen. Take it out on the weekend to keep its parts working. If you use the car regularly, fully synthetic oils can let you go for 10k kilometers.

So bale once a year na lang palit ng langis, pero mas recommended nyo ba na kami na lang magpalit kung matutunan namin, o dalhin talaga sa talyer para hindi na namin isipin kung anong langis ang bibilhin at ilang litro?

Bumili na lang kayo online ng langis tapos dalhin nyo sa malapit na auto shop. Nasa 400 to 500 lang singil ng auto shops for change oil.

Puwede naman gawin sa bahay yung change oil pero dapat may lugar ka tapos mga tools. Basta kaya mo i-lift ng mabuti yung sasakyan, puwede gawan ng paraan yug change oil sa bahay.

Hello, I really apologize but I can't seem to start a thread of my own and I really need advice on purchasing a 2nd hand car.

Sana po makahingi ako ng immediate advice sa inyo.... I currently own a 2002 Altis and planning to upgrade. The car is used only mostly during weekends (I ride a motorcycle to work) and out of town trips. Usually, kami lang ng wife and kid ko ang nakasakay.

I have 3 cars in mind (pasok sa budget) and I am planning to purchase before the month ends.

1. 2012/2013 Civic 1.8 MT/AT (9th gen) - the reason I like this Civic is ONLY just because it's a Civic. Maporma, 1.8 ung engine, saka parang considered na astig ka pag naka-civic. I'm just worried na mataas ang FC niya kasi nga 1.8 ung displacement. Hindi pa kasi ako nagkaka-Civic before so parang gusto ko i-try man lang. Also, 6-7yrs old na siya pag binili ko copared sa VIOS na 2-3 lang.

2. 2016/2017 Vios MT 1.3E - The only reason I prefer the Vios is because it will just be 2-3 yrs. old when I purchase it. So feeling ko this is the most practical option dahil medyo bago pa and mas matipid sa gas although sabi ng friends ko mahina daw hatak ng 1.3 engine and baka magsisi ako sa huli kung hindi ako kukuha ng civic or altis. Gusto ko din naman ung porma ng Vios kaya lang baka maliit para sa akin dahil sanay ako sa lumang Altis ko.

3. 2014 Altis MT 1.6E (10th gen) [/B]- This one I really like/prefer. Before gusto ko talaga ung Altis G/V 2011/2012 9th Gen but then narealize ko na kaya ko naman isagad ung budget ko for the 2014 10th gen model pero Manual trans nga lang. Gusto ko ung porma ng Altis talaga but napapaisip ako if mas ok ung CIVIC kung hindi rin naman ako mag vi-Vios. Also, alam ko stupid question pero mas OK naman talaga isagad ko na ung budget to purchase the 10th gen Altis than to settle with the Altis G/V 2011/2012 9th Gen diba?

Thanks in advance po for the advice. Again, I'm sorry to ride on this thread.

alam mo naman siguro gaano ka-reliable siya... pamatay lang nga presyo nung signal flasher...

sabi iba, "bat altis ulit?"
sabiko, "you don't want double of a good thing?"
heh heh.

Forget the Vios 1.3 po if the car will use mostly for out of town. My cousin owns one and according to him, may kalakasan sa gas specially for trips like Baguio. IMHO, I think the Civic/Altis would be a better choice due to engine displacement and better suspension.

You did say that this will be a weekend car, so FC should not be that big of a consideration. With this in mind, performance wise I'd go with the Civic, newest unit you can get for your money.

This generation of Vios has a reputation among the TNVS to have rather mediocre FC despite the small engine, and poor aircon.

I agree with the good doctor that the Altis would be the best choice given your considerations. Size is similar to what you are used to. 1.6 engine would be more fuel efficient than the 1.8 Civic, without being too shabby in the performance department. And I daresay, this model looks better than the rather bland 9th gen Civic.

You can't go wrong with either Altis or Civic. Choose the one with less parts to fix or replace, and the one with maintenance records. A one-owner car is also a plus.

One thing that I always check when buying a used car is to see if all tires are matching (brand and model), and if they're good quality tires like Michelins, Bridgetones, Coopers etc and not those cheap China tires. IMO, it's a good sign that the owner cares for his/her car and for his safety, therefore the car should be well maintained.

I will go for RAV 4

[_Qwerty_]

at least every 6 months change oil.. kahit hindi ginagamit masyado..

wag ka bibili nang hindi updated ang rehistro..

Magkano po average cost ng change oil? Kailangan ba kahit hindi masyado ginagamit sasakyan?
