2010 Ford Fiesta [continued 2]

**tidus1203** · April 2nd, 2011 06:24 PM

Nabasa ko sa Facebook nagtaas na daw ng P10,000 ang price ng Fiesta Sport. I am still trying to confirm if its only for the Sport trim or across the board...

Kinda expected that already as early as last year especially sa Sport model given all its features the pricing feels introductory...

Yes, totoong may increase na 10K nga effective this month. Btw, new member here. I just got my black 5 door 1.6L Sport last Tuesday. Kaya sabi sa akin ng Ford Balintawak na buti na lang daw at nakuha ko na unit ko at di na ako inbot ng increase.

Good decision!

Actually I have considered Jazz, but im not satisfied with the deal and price. Kaya Fiesta nlang d pa masakit sa bulsa.

Anu yung mga first thing na dapat gawin sa new Fofi? Wala p ako alam, kungdi mag drive lang ng mag drive. Ni hindi ko pa alam brake fluid at coolant. Anu ba dapat weekly ko check?

Kakadating ko lang galng tagaytay. Cainta to tagaytay to cainta, 164kms then may 1millimeter at half ng full tank ang natira. Not sure if this is good though.

Observations:
Nahihinaan ako sa arangkada ng 3rd gear, siguro dahil bago pa. Ang haba ng 2nd gear din. Ganun ba talaga aircon iba amoy sa simula. Pero d naman mabaho. Sa tripmeter ng 1.4manual, kilometer travelled lang ba talaga pede display nito?

To the new Fofi owners, congrats and enjoy your Fiesta as much as we do. For starters expect a getting to know stage in w/c eventually your car and you will adjust to each other. Remember, as with any other new vehicle, break in pa yan.

Di naman hard to maintain ang Fiesta, i drive constantly and yet naka 3 months na bago nag middle ang dipstick ko sa oil, also, up to now, nakaka 4 months na eh di pa nagbabago ang coolant level ko. This of course depends on your usage.

If your Unit is not a Sport, talagang basic kilometer lang ang display niyan, if you read ang fuel consumption thread dito, you could safely assume na in time, makaka 8 - 11 km./ liter city - highway driving. Don't fuss yourself with your f.c. that much, this early i will tell you that there is more to the Fiesta to appreciate than fuel efficiency hehehe. Whenever f.c. concerns me, i look at a Vios and tell myself i am definitely happier than that person hahaha.

In my case di pa bumabagsak oil ko until now, its still in FULL. Pero syempre dark brown na yung color unlike sa umpisa clear pa... As for the coolant bumagsak na sakin halfway, I added some Wilkins to bring it back to full... Brake fluid di ko na pinapansin yan di rin bumabagsak.

ANd pinaka dapat mo pansinin is the tire pressure... Yun mabilis bumagsak, at least every month you need to inflate unless of course like me nag nitrogen ka na then it gives you a longer time period.

Basta read the manual and you will learn a lot of things what to look out for in your car!

Nagsundo ako this morning, since my travel from tagaytay. Now i have 200kms almost half na tank. Naayos n rin hatak ng 3rd gear. Mukhang nag aadjust pa kasi bago. Nawindang ako dun sa rear wiper, d ko mahanap switch off.. Inabot ako ng 10minutes bago ko nahanap switch..hehehe

Sa tire pressure pala. Nagulat ako 41 ang tire pressure ko pag check ko. Ginawa ko 33 sa front at 31 sa rear. D ko sure kung okay lang to.. Anung tire pressure gamit nyo?

FoFi owners, magkano daw PMS ng sa inyo?

ginto ang sparkplugs ng mazda2!!!

**tidus1203** · April 3rd, 2011 11:34 AM

Free pa kasi kami hangang 10,000 PMS, sa 20,000 PMS ang simula may bayad and I doubt any FoFi owners has reached 10,000km already. For sure no one has had it for 18 months cause October lang lumabas ang FoFi...

According sa warranty booklet, sa 40,000km or 2 years pinapalitan ang spark plugs ng FoFi...

Nasa gilid ng driver door frame ang prescribed tire pressure COLD.

When you drive the air inside is heated and increases in pressure. So when you measure at the gas station, inaccurate na and reading nyan. Maybe kaya 41 nakuha mo.

I advise to get your own tire pressure gauge. Yung high quality dahil napaka importante ng tire inflation in terms of F.C. at pudpod sa goma.

I bought mine from BM auto supply San Fernando for P450.00. Brass yung body with the slider scale, made in USA. Parang yung sa vulcanizing shops.

Nagulat kasi ako kahit 33 tire pressure ko sa front wheel, parang flat malambot yung gulong. Check ko ulit mamaya nga sa ibang gas station. Uu importante nga talaga ang tire pressure.
