    I have friends who own various cars from Chevrolet and the dealership just don't have stocks of the required parts.

    Chevrolet Greenhills-EDSA seems ok.
    There are also third party shops that bring in parts for Chevys (specially the Asian models) and Chevy specialists (ex-casa mechanics/third party mechanics)

    Based on stories of people I know

    Cruze - AT issues, a month for parts
    Spin - AC issues, weeks for parts
    (Buti sana kung may service vehicle na ipapahiram ang Chevy while the car is nasa dealership)

    Suburban - hood was dented and our expat hated it. It took them 5 months for a replacement hood! Our expat didn't want to let go of his temp Camry when his car was ready!

    damn...sounds like sinasabay nila shipments sa new vehicle deliveries..

    kung wala bumibili ng stock vehicles nila the longer the wait for spareparts...

    Actually, surprised ako sa Spin (AC issues), di naman Chevy gumawa ng AC... Pero wala pa din daw parts!

    Di naman mapagawa outside the dealer... Baka daw mag ka issue sa wattanty

    I remember in one of the Chevy Sail reviews, it said the minimum requirement is 91 octane.

    I just saw it on their website, it says "fuel rating".
    The question, is 95 RON the "minimum requirement" or what's "recommended".
    Any Sail owners here who can check the owners manual or fuel filler door?

    *EDIT*
    For the Chinese market it says ≥92 RON on the fuel filler door, oh wells.

    *Edit* I think Petron merged the 93 and 91 to just 91.
    I'm not that updated with the lower octane unleaded, always been using XCS 95 octane.

    For me 95 is normal since that's what I always use.

    ^Many are fooled thinking that 91ron is cheaper, it actually gives you less distance coverage so when computed in terms of peso per km, it turns out to be more expensive than 95ron

    I have empirical data showing that my cars' consumption is the same whether I use 91 or 95. I've been tracking my fuel data for over 5 years across different cars.

    For most cars, traffic conditions, driving style, and route play a bigger factor in your fuel consumption than fuel octane.
