Thank you bro SG and Renzo and other bros!!!

Congratulations sir !

There may be some negativity about the Accent but always look at what does it give overall, in short, look at the positive outcome/treats that your car is giving.

Wala naman po kasing perfect vehicle. Every car has cons, and these things can range from minor misaligned kits to a major engine-not-running-well problem. Good thing na ganyan lang yung sa Accent and its not that widespread pa, meaning, you might be lucky not to have that.

Dun sa mga nagrereklamo na bakit dito kailangan required pa ng 95+ RON .. arte arte naman. Here's what Im gonna say to you guys, PISO lang difference per liter, wag kayong cheap ! :hysterical: If your car runs well on 93+ RON, then stick with it. If it doesn't, take the next step ... dun ka sa 95+ RON gasoline.

Actually the reason why I'm insisting on fueling up Shell products is because on lots of stations/fuel I've encountered ( Petron Xtra Unleaded & XCS / Caltex Silver & Gold / Flying V AV Gas / SeaOil unleaded / & Shell products .. ) yung Shell lang nakapagbigay sakin ng magandang FC & feel. I dunno why, pero ganun eh. Though my car is different from you guys, I'm sure you will feel the same.

Kaya enjoy your car sir ! Proper break-in is you can breach above 100kph but not above 4k rpm. With this, you can reach the maximum fuel efficiency of your engine when it reaches 1k on the ODO & you will maximize the power allowable.

Goodluck & pics pls. hehe.

Kung 5 pesos na difference ng regular diesel at Turbo diesel pinatulan ko pa eh.. Piso pa kaya.

hindi ba nareresolve ng shell fuel or ng paglagay ng 95+ RON yung knock ng accent? not really a deal breaker IMO...

pero kung gusto ng buyer safe talaga, he/she might as well wait for the fix from hyundai.

sa mga gusto talaga magtipid, the 97 RON gas from seaoil might probably help to reduce the knock at a price equal to the big 3's regular 93 RON fuel. (55 pesos sa may amin!)

Mura nga yan. Kahit yung euro 4 diesel ata ng seaoil mura din eh.

Thank you bro... pix to follow soon! Tama bro, the right way to break in our horse is to breach above 100kph but not over 4k RPM.. this is what I did during the break in period... I drove from Tagaytay to Subic and NLEX and SCTEX, superb ang performance ng accent... 140kph bale wala... but the I make sure to it that the RPM wont exceed 4k rpm.... kayang kaya pa tumakbo ng over 140kph pero nasa break in period pa kaya tiis tiis pa ng konti... hehehe!! last May 19, nag change oil na ako after reaching 1k odo reading... now fights na!!!

Happy riding fellow accent owner/users.. we had the right choice!!!!

First Jazz 1.3 M/T 742k. Jazz advantages are the flexible big space and design are not outdated, still okay. Disadvantages are expensive, thin metal and only offers color silver, white and black..

Next stop is Fiesta 1.4 M/T 685k. Advantages are gives a good package for M/T, very well built, thick metal, and good driving experience. Disadvantages are rearseat legroom is just okay, Donut reserve wheel, and
The M/T 685k Package comes with 15" alloy wheels and repeating side mirror which is not offered in this price range for other brands.

Lastly Accent 1.4 A/T 686k. Advantages are big space, new design and low price for an automatic tranny. Disadvantage, i felt some parts of the interior are cheap, but overall interior are very nice. Medyo nasikipan ako papasok sa driverseats, tumatama tuhod ko sa steering wheel.
I really like the speedometer and rear design. The A/T 686k comes with 14"alloy wheels and no repeating side mirror.

Overall I like fiesta interior and exterior. That is why im going for Fiesta.

I like both car Fiesta and Accent but for common daily used I preferred for accent, long wise use can saved money.

How is the TS' car kaya? Does his car is spared from the knocking issue?

**LtAK** · December 4th, 2011 02:13 AM

Shell Unleaded for my 1.4 MT, no knocking, no low power issues... averaging 10 to 11 liters per 100 KM.
The break in was excellent 2,500 rpm up 3,500 rpm during the initial phase at 1000km. 2nd phase up to 3,800 RPM on burst.
Vehicle engine life will depend on the success and your procedure of proper engine break in

Very noisy road sound, heard from 60kph and above speed the same with I10 and Elantra.
