Hyundai Santa Fe or Honda CR-V?

[O!lman]

Gen3 4x4 CRV 2.4 ang service car ko sa Qatar. OK lang naman at wala pang nasisira kahit nilalaspag ko. Hindi lang talaga ako nagandahan at nakakasawa. Pero kung pera ko ang ibibili ko for CRV...I would rather go for a RAV4.Dahil may kamahalan ang RAV4, Santa Fe crdi na lang binili ko dito sa Pinas. Value for Money talaga.

crv na lang, subok na kasi... iba talaga kasi ang performance ng honda.

Our only problem with it is that it's quite wide. Best fuel economy I got is 21 km/L (15L/323kms) with 120kmh uphills and zigzags (which really made me sick right after). City is about 10-12kms/L.

Chief,

baka puwede mo ko bigyan ng tips on how to achieve this.
My SF has just turned 3 months and nasa 3k km na ang mileage.

Parang anglakas sa diesel considering na di naman ako hataw magpatakbo.
Inoobserbahan ko sya these past few weeks wherein I notice that the P500 worth of fuel takes only 4 days on my every other day use from house to office and vise versa.

Our house is at Santa Ana and my office is at Makati.
based on my trip meter, this is about 12km round trip.

So multiply that by 4 days then that is about 48km.
The P500 diesel is arond 13L.

48km / 13L = 3.69km/L.

Well knowing makati, minsan takes time para makalabas kasi angtraffic sobra lalo na pag past 5PM. And I still have to cool down the engine before I turn it off. Usually mga 1minute muna syang idle sa parking area bago ko pinapatay ung engine.

Or is it mas-malakas sya sa fuel on short trips kasi the engine is not yet reaching the optimize operating temperature?

1.) Pag cold pa ang engine, I wait for it to reach the normal operating temp before ko itakbo/ihataw. Pag malamig pa, normally takbo ko mga 20-30kmh lang.

2.) I drive fast but not too fast. Due to this, I often coast too.

3.) Stop & Go actually consumes a lot more fuel.

4.) I normally fill up in the early morning or late night, never during the day.

5.) I keep below 2,000rpm, normally around 1800 which is about 110-120kmh.

6.) Your car might be needing italian tune up (take it to 200kmh to loosen the valves. hehehe). I say about once a month.

7.) You can cool the turbo by slowing down upon approach of your destination.


yung brother ng gf ko, reklamo din nya malakas sa diesel yung SF ni GF. Siguro depende lang talaga sa driver.

Important din yung break-in (in my opinion). This will define how the engine would behave for the rest of its service life (unless it was overhauled). During the pre-1000km, talagang we never went beyond 80kmh. When it reached 1,000kms, changed oil, then yun na. Super enjoyable gamitin yung car.

I wonder ano meron sa 2008 model aside from the Logic7 Audio (Harman Kardon or Infinity ito for sure). hehehe.

My odo reading is at 250kms+. When I got my SF 2x4 crdi last week, nag fill up ako sa petron for 1k, (26L). Inabot ng 184kms pure city driving under 2000rpm approx 6.5/liter. Now I'm on my 2nd 26Liters sa tank, nakakainip paabutin ng 1000kms. Paminsan minsan napapaabot ko ng 2500rpm pag may sumasabay na alanganin, tipong gustong sumubok. Ayun kakagulat pag pumitik ulo mo sa head rest, unexpected ang whiplash. Galeng ng accelerator response e. Ooops, OT na me, sorry po.

Kung first car mo yan eh mag CRV ka.....

First car din ni GF yung SantaFe. Birthday gift ng mommy nya, I just helped the mom choose which one. No problems naman. Should there be any (hopefully none), it's easy to buy another one anyway.
