2010 Ford Fiesta [continued]

[desert fox]

I think common yan sa mga US brand vehicles...I remember yung trailblazer namin dati...bukas sara lang yung gas cap from the outside...

edit..I meant to say the gas lid...yung parang pinaka pinto nya...and hindi yung pinaka takip ng pinapasukan ng gas nozzle...

same with my previous ride chevy cavalier....

risky itong fiesta sa atin....ingat lang at baka merong me galit o inggit lagyan ng kung ano ano chemical, yari tayo fiesta lovers.....

sana me mabili sa aftermarket na fuelcap na me key....para safe...

Hindi Fiesta pa rin! The Verna's 4 speed automatic was the deal braker!

So finally was able to put petrol for the 1st time last night.

I was just expecting the gas warning light to come on but was pretty surprised that this had an audible chime as well. Also, my meter switched displays and showed a range of 45km before empty.

By the way, my windows lock button was engaged but the passenger side could still be brought down. It's only the rear (2nd row) windows that remain locked. FYI, I'm used to the japanese cars that if the window is locked only the driver side could be used so is this true for all Fords or just the Fiesta?

Walang plastic nozzle na kasama, wala din tools. Jack, lever and spare tire lang kasama.

All this discussion about the capless fuel system. As I said previously, it may be the first major flaw (actually second, first being the rotary seat recliner).

I don't think it's cost cutting. I think it's even more expensive to fit it with this locking mechanism, rather than the ordinary cap system with door lock/cable/lever.

I don't quite get the logic that the capless system will only allow the right fuel nozzle in. Locally, aren't all gas pumps identical in size? There's a suggestion that diesel nozzle might be bigger, but I don't think that's the case locally. I think the risk of loading the wrong fuel (e.g. diesel) remains the same. It's unlikely to happen, but the capless system doesn't necessarily bring down the risks.

Para sa mga seriously affected nitong always-open gas tank cover, you can always turn to Mr. Bean's genius for solutions...

Kulitin natin ang Ford about this plastic nozzle. This should be standard issue. I usually load up fuel additives every now and then (usually fuel injector cleaner, or water remover). Looks like I won't be able to do this with the Fiesta.

Sa mga may FB (sorry wala akong FB ), paki-post nyo 'tong issue na 'to sa Fiesta FB page.

fiesta tsikoters wazup

sa usapang cash vs financing, gawa kau thread dun sa car financing, loans. fiesta thread ito hehehe

sa usapang easy capless, FGP needs to find a way to resolve this. lalo na ngaung mdaming nakakaalam na hindi nalolock ang gas lid cover natin, malamang mdaming susubok at kakalikutin ito kpag nasa parking lot hehehe. pinoy pa maabilidad mgagawan ng paraan yan para masipsip gas ntin

latest FC updates:wala pang proper break-in ito. magaang ang paa sa gas pedal
malayo pa ko sa D2E reference ko kaya sa display na lang
route: laspinas to global city
traffic: moderate to light

nung moderate to light lang FC is 7.8 Li / 100km = 12.82kpl
then natraffic sa lawton ave. going to global tumaas cya to 8.9 Li/100km = 11.236kpl

other fiesta owners, anu FC nyo? paano nyo nga pla ni break-in wla sa manual e?
plan ko sa SLEX. try to get max 140 ng paunti unti

sa focus ganyan din, sa likod lang yung nag la-lock. pag engaged ang lock, nawawala yung ilaw dun sa window up/down buttons.
