August 26th, 2012 09:24 PM #12Kaya naman yan. 1.6L parin kahit papano. Para saan pa ba naman kaya yung off road capabilities kung di kayang humatak? If you still feel short on power, siguro mag engine mods ka nalang.
It is worthy of note though that the 5 door Vitara 1.6A/T is a heavy drinker. May kamag-anak kami meron nun. He's not very into cars so I couldn't ask him the km/L reading pero sabi niya malakas talaga sa gas.
Merong thread about A/T versus M/T dito, marami kang malalaman. Mas OK siguro if you will let your wife adjust to the car instead of the car adjusting to your wife. Its for the best and much more economical in the long run.

August 26th, 2012 09:46 PM #13kung ako pipili sir RAV4 (RAV4 gen2 ang ride ko at personally happy ako)
kahit na ang vitara ay pang flood hindi pa din advisable na ilusong mo.
saka city driving ka din naman mas advisable a/t ung additional na fc ang kapalit comfort.
and sa spare parts isipin mo din lalo na kung hindi brand new ang kukunin mo

A little watch-out on the Vitara. These were previous options for our sales mgrs back in the early 2000. Those who got these acquired 2001, 2002, complained of high fuel consumption for a 1.6liter SUV. Similar complaint to those who got the then new 2003s 2.0liter gen2 CRVs. Both were matic though.

An uncle of mine had a '93 Vitara with the 1.6L engine and manual transmission, but retrofitted a Volkswagen/Audi 1.6L diesel. Considering reliability and cross-country abilities, I'd rather get a Vitara over a RAV-4 everytime. Overall comfort was not bad for the Vitara too.

Kahit yung pinaka matarik na kalsada sa baguio at 5 passengers at punoin mo pa ng gamit kayang-kaya ng Vitara yan, dahil kung sa tingin mo mabibitin ang makina dahil sobra tarik pwede mo i-shift sa 4 low, at gagapang yan.
Nagkaroon ako ng Vits kaya kabisado ko capability nyan re gas consumption mas matipid sya compared sa ibang SUV wag lang Jimny and the likes at sa sedan. Actually naghahanap din ako uli nyan gagawin kong project 4x4 car.

Noted sir Autobeat, around 95 to 98 (or 99 if may makita) lang po ang hanap namin na vitara...from what I heard ay hinde gaanong kalakas sa gaso ang ganitong model. Thanks
Copy that sir cripple_rooster, from the recommendations of our fellow tsikoteers they also preferred vitara over rav4. Thanks
Thanks also for the tip sir shadow3616931. Goodluck to your project car

Sir renzo, I overlooked your last statement. CRV is not included in our lists but we can consider if we will be educated.
Btw, I opened a new thread, Vitara vs CRV (95 - 98 model)...needs your advices again mga sir. Ty

I would rather avoid the V6 versions of the Vitara and the Grand Vitara. But, if you're now considering the CR-V, it does worth to take a look at an early diesel Grand Vitara with the Mazda RF 2.0L turbodiesel.
Puwede i try, 1. Palit air filter 2. Linis throttle body 3. Linis MAF sensor 4. Check spark...
high idle RPM at engine start
