    On a cold start...Do you drive immediately after starting the engine? Or start> wait for the RPM to go down. Then drive?

    wouldn't that be wasting fuel, sir? your car could have moved some meters while waiting for the rpm to go down.
    even your manual says you should commence driving as soon as possible.

    Wait for a few seconds then drive off. But not gunning it agad. Wait for it to reach operating temp then ok na. Usually pag labas ng guard house if you're living in a village ok na temp ng engine.

    Check ang kabyo kung naka N. Then half na key stroke para makita kung naka handbreak and kung may error. Kung wala start na. Then check ang mga mirror, pakingan ang engine. Seat belt then takbo na.

    Ang alam ko sa diesel midyo need mo talaga pa initin bago e takbo.. pero kung gas naman need pa ba? Or even less than a minute e pwd na e takbo? Ano posible effect sa engine kung pag start e takbo na accelerate na agad.

    in the morning, I press the brake pedal with my hand and press start button. Car starts rev at 1500rpm then eventually settles at 750 after around a minute or two (depends on ambient temp).

    Go around the car, open the gates, check for puppies and kittens under the car. Spray with water when one is present. By that time the engine would've warmed up and I'm ready to go.

    All the engine oil is still on the oil pan and will take a while for it to reach all the internal moving parts of the engine. Gunning the accelerator immediately after startup in the morning will result in unnecessary wear.

    Posible. Pero i think 30secord is enough to oil completely the engine. Sa 30second na yun e checking the mirror, place the seat belt and first gear the car while opening the hand break.

    1. Daily or weekly check (your choice) ng brake fluid, oil and coolant.

    2. Start engine. masama yung redondo agad pagkastart (ugali ng erpats ko na di ko na kaylanman mababago). check if warning lamps go off. kung hindi e di recheck vehicle.

    3. while idling, walk around ng sasakyan to check tires and their pressures. may kasama na ring silip sa ilalim kung may weeping or dripping leaks ng brake fluid pati na rin yung oils ng engine, trans, at diff.

    then eto na: walking > jogging > sprint

    pero usually #2 lang ang ginagawa ko. once a week lang yung #1 & #2.

    well maintained naman ang kabayo ko.

    According to my manual..yung picture..under eco driving... Di ko nmn nasusunod... Kasi after ko start 1500 RPM then wait ako ilang minutes until bumaba ng 700rpm..
