    if his old posts are still available, perusing them will elucidate what you missed.

    That would be true for someone pretending not to be an old member with a new username

    For driving comfort, ease of maintenance, and long-term reliability, here's a quick comment on each option:

    Toyota Wigo CVT: Compact, reliable, and affordable maintenance. Great for city driving but may feel less comfortable on long trips due to its smaller size.
    Mitsubishi Mirage G4 CVT: Offers good fuel efficiency and low maintenance costs, with a bit more space and comfort than the Wigo. Reliability is strong but performance might feel basic.
    Suzuki Dzire AGS: Comfortable and spacious with good ride quality. Maintenance can be a bit more complex due to the AGS transmission, but Suzuki’s long-term reliability is solid.
    For the best mix of comfort and long-term reliability, the Mirage G4 CVT may be the most balanced choice.

    ... there's a new complication...
    there may be rumors of the new vios arriving "soon"...
    i am wondering, "what's new with the new vios? new powerplant? or just slightly new metal?"

    Apart from the move to the newer Daihatsu's DNGA platform from Toyota's EFC (A Derivative of the Echo/Gen 1 Vios' NBC which is supposed to be more cost effective than continuing development using the B platform as found in the Gen 2 Vios/Vitz-based Yaris) in the current vios probably a different CVT transmission if not the D-CVT as found in other DNGA-based vehicles."1st Gear" is shorter in the new vios than even the GR-S variant of the current vios which has a different CVT calibration to have a shorter "1st Gear".

    I've seen a YouTube video or two of wigos suffering from hydrolocked engines (or of a something similar-ish ailment) due to a leaky windshield weather strip or something like that. Apparently , this "leak" dribbles water into the air box w/c then , when the air filter becomes saturated, the motor inhales the h²o inadvertently. Is this true?

    My utol has a g4 and the major complaint he has is the rear suspension system. I think it's a torsion bar thingamajig contraption , w/c he says bottoms out pretty quickly.

    the 96 up sentra had the same problem, but i guess it was silenced by the car's other... nice features.
    i mean, they didn't shout too loudly.
    rear torsion, that sentra.

    This looks like a great community for car enthusiasts in the Philippines. Forums like this are really helpful for sharing real experiences, reviews, and tips. I often check platforms such as Mil Win – Download Milwin Game APK v1.1.17 Free For 225 as well to stay updated with useful automotive and online trends.
