    I own the 2014 Ford Fiesta and at 1800kms, we are having a minor problem with ours. Every time we turn on the engine with the aircon already set to 1, a foul smell comes up for a few seconds before disappearing. Backreading the thread I also noticed that there's one other user who has experienced it, although the post was already years ago. Anyone experiencing this with their FoFis?

    Happens po not only with Fiestas but with other cars as I experienced it before with my Jazz. Chemical-like yung amoy nya tapos mawawala din after. I know there was a thread before about this and they say na mildew daw yun na nag-aaccumulate.

    Chances are there is some mold or similar in your aircon blower or vent tubing. Only way to remove it is to have it properly cleaned. It would require a bit of disassembly to clean it well.

    Wala kaming ininstall so far na aircon filter, if the unit that comes straight from the casa does not come with it. Yep, member rin ako ng FCP :D

    Ano callsign mo sa FCP Sir?

    May thread tayo dun regarding the odor. Caused yata ng car freshener.

    Dahil walang ganyan issue sa sedan namin, hindi ko na binasa yung thread.

    Better have a filter at least dahil kung maging grabe ang kundisyon or sobra dumi ng aircon, kailangan baklasin pa ang buong dashboard para lang ma service ito. Style BMW daw.

    Nasa P8K yata ang gastos pag ganyan.

    just try this, wag ka magspray ng kahit anong pabango/cologne while still nasa loob ng tsikot mo kahit for one day. mawawala yan.

    Prang outdated napo kase ung sa Mazda 2. ung ford fiesta nmn po is futuristic nmn masyado. Worries ko po kase tlaga sa ford is ung maintenance. any idea po if when magpapalit ng model ung mazda. Im also considering na after 5 years prang napakaluma na ng mazda. Un nga lng may parts and free services po kase sila every year na worth 60k for 3 years and free towing for 3 years. saka po kung masisira siya after the said time frame, madali nmn ung parts, while ford. Im not really familiar skanya. I really need you help po

    Here's what you do. Firstly, ask your bank why they are limiting your choices to Ford or Mazda? As a client (you) have the freedom to choose whatever car you like, correct? They (the bank) will just finance your purchase, part of it anyway. I'm not really that familiar with bank policies on auto financing so I just wrote in here what is on top of my head.

    Now for your first car, you need something RELIABLE. Don't be swayed by the various automatic this, super hi-tech controls that, shift-paddle-hi-speed-electronic-magic, that the sales people pitch on you. REMEMBER that its your car, your money. They are just there to sell you what they have, be it a good car or cheap plastic junk disguised to look like a car... and then its GOODBYE!

    Scan thru the forums here in tsikot, read thru the threads of the different brand and models that are within your budget. Then narrow down on the most promising candidates.

    I just mentioned a Vios because we have one. From the day (2010) we got it up until now 75,000 +++ kilometers later, all it ever needed was regular Toyota service, a battery, and a set of tyres, that's it. Walang tirik, never pumalya, no abnormal lights flashing on the instrument panel when you're driving, etc. It's that reliable.

    Goodluck on your first car.

    To be honest I fall inlove with Vios 1.3E m/t. Im really in a tight budget so I go for low DP. I'll simply use the car nmn sa province, fetching my kids from school. Then sa work tapos pagpumapasyal lng around the province. Siguro ndi nmn masyadong often pag out of town. For family use lng nmn po. sobrang taas ba ng FC?
