Hi Guys, Happy holidays to all. I haven’t been active on tsikot in years and this is my first post here so please be gentle.
I’ve been planning to get an Everest Ti 2.2 for a couple of months now and decided initially to wait till January 2018. Went into panic mode when I saw in the news that the excise tax had been signed a couple of nights ago so in a matter of 2 days, I have read and digested as much as I could of all the 667 pages here. Felt like I was back in school cramming for an exam!!
Long story short, thanks to everyone’s honest contributions, I put in my order yesterday and was fortunate to find a dealer with the color I wanted and will be released on the 27th.
So as per the SA, 2018 2.2 Titanium has been upgraded with the power liftgate, adaptive cruise control and active parking assist.
From everyone’s invaluable input, I made a short inspection list of stuff I have to look out for when I pick up the unit. If I missed out on anything, kindly add to the list nalang.
1. Check steering wheel alignment.
2. Check alignment of all doors and gas tank filler.
3. Make sure TCP, PCM, BCM have been updated to the latest versions.
4. Make sure body is not leaning towards the left side.
Just one question about ANC. Do I have to turn on the HU for ANC to be active? If I do have to turn on the HU, does the volume level affect the level of ANC the system is producing? ie. Higher volume level = higher ANC?
I’m feel really fortunate to have found this group as I have learned so much in the past 2 days. It’s wonderful that people get to learn so much in such little time. I definitely will share my upcoming experiences to contribute to the abundance of knowledge found here. Everyone’s effort in posting, explaining, etc is much appreciated!!! Happy Holidays everyone!! Cheers!
No need to turn on HU for ANC to work. Congratulations on your purchase. If indeed Ti has the added features you mentioned, I see no more reason to buy the Ti+, except for those who really want a sunroof.

Well the HU automatically turns on naman once you switch on the key, so I believe the ANC is activated as well.

Thank you for the quick reply sir. I will definitely confirm these updated features to the Ti when I receive my unit.
Cheers all!
Congrats sir!!
Lalabas lang usually sira through mileage and time especially for leaks so do drive your car.
3. Make sure TCP, PCM, BCM have been updated to the latest versions.
^^Just check your build date(found on the sticker om the engine belt timing cover) if 2017 BER months built, it should have the latest cal.
Just one question about ANC. Do I have to turn on the HU for ANC to be active?
^^drive on well paved highway like NLEX at around 80kph and open any front or rear windows about an inch, you should here a reverbirating sound coming from the speakers cancelling the wind noise. Bring a passenger with you if medyo mahina pandinig mo.
huwat!? totoo meron na power liftgate adaptive cruise control and active parking assist si Ti? kano kuha mo? how much discount? malas haha kung alam ko lang na young Ti eventually mag kaka ganyan feature nag antay sana ako ng december. nung kumuha kami trend hindi worth it yung trend to Ti variant. pero sa added features sulit na Ti. congrats!
If I know na ganyan na add-ons sa TI naghintay na sana ako, Oct ko nakuha unit ko trend, wala naman balita about TI changes.

Thanks again guys!
* Sir Jiggs, I really don’t have any idea on how to check it. Hehehe. The only reason I took note of it was because I believe Sir Janemar mentioned something about updates to these different modules somewhere within these 668 pages.
* Sir Janemar, thank you for the advice; will definitely check that and inquire about the latest updates from the service manager. If he does share anything with me, I will make sure to post it here.
* Sir Eido, 1.739M kasama na yung 100k cash discount. The updates actually caught me by surprise. Una, sabi ng SA, included na raw yung power tailgate and adaptive cruise control. Yung active parking assist, pa chamba-chamba lang “daw” based on certain VIN numbers. Later that day, na confirm niya na lahat daw meron na rin ng active parking assist. This was just last Wednesday lang ha so I am guessing that kung yung SA mismo di kabisado yung updates, then it must be pretty recent most likely with this latest batch lang.
* Sir Alrorskyz, Ok lang yan sir. At least you got it cheaper and most importantly, na enjoy mo na siya.Ako, waiting pa and hoping walang problem yung makuha ko. Biglaan talaga sir. Ultimo kung SA hindi nag alam eh. And that was last Wednesday lang.
Will post updates….
Stay safe everyone and have a Blessed Christmas!!
I believe Ti with premium package is 1.989m. kung ganun, the panoramic sunroof, HID and LED DRL costs 250K.
Everest 2.2 Ti originally was priced Php1.639M without any freebies nor discount. Now Php1.739 net of all discounts plus the Active Parking Assist, Adaptive Cruise Control and Power Lift Gate and the SYNC3 is still a really Good Buy. The after market Power Lift gate is around 30-35K, so to Php65-70K are for the radar sensors to suit the adaptive cruise control. and the additional modules for the parking assist. In my almost 2years of enjoying my Eve the cruise control and ANC and the incoming traffic alert while backing up are my favs..even my friends and father who have tried my car told me na " Mas Refine nga pala ang Eve compare to my SUV "
So I think those modules can be purchased sa casa for us to upgrade. Though I think they will not sell it unless your unit is equipped and found defective.
Oh yeah. Considering that when Titanium Premium first appeared for the 2.2 the price difference is 160K only and you get all the bells and whistles which are lacking in a regular Ti. We will confirm in a few days if indeed the Premium is not a good buy anymore.

Weird for ford that they will put almost all features sa lower Titanium variant. Baka they will phase out the Titanium Premium kung ganun.
So their TOTL model would be the 3.2 Titanium Premium na ulit.
Thanks for making me feel good about my purchase Sir Jiggs.
Considering that I was decided on the Premium without knowing about the updates, indeed I feel na super bonus yung upgrades. The Titanium Premium still has other stuff like the Lane Keeping System, TPMS, Collision Mitigation, DRL, HID Headlamps and sunroof which I feel still are a lot of goodies to have over the Titanium. I guess the deciding factor will be how much the difference in price the Ti and Ti + will have after all the upgrades to the Ti. I’ll ask the SA next week what this price is if I remember from all the excitement.
I forgot to include that I was offered 110k off the Trend as well. 1.499M net. Current price difference between Trend and Titanium is 140,000.
Cheers guys!
IMHO, they just made a good price point value for each variant. Before kase the real Bang for the Bucks are the Trend Variant..now the Titanium is clearly with a good price value compared sa Trend. *140k price diff...Trend vs. Titanium mas sulit na mag upgrade to Ti. But still Trend still d best priced variant.
