Tips for Car Newbie

ANo mga dapat ko check kapag ibinigay na sa akin yung car? Ano yung conduction sticker?

Conduction sticker. Sticker on your glass (windshield / rear glass) may alpha numeric. It will serve as a temporary plate also.

Dapat icheck? May checklist yan kasama pag nirelease sayo, inspect the whole car, paint, body. Electricals, tools, spare tire and other inclusions na napag usapan niyo.

YUng insurance ba ay one year lang talaga?

Yes yearly renewal ng insurance.

Dalhin mo lang po sa casa. Change oil at oil filter lang yan sir, afaik. Usually an hour or two lang itatagal nyan. Ano car mo sir? Hehe

[dr. d]

if it's a very popular car, your wait might stretch to half a day or more.
call up the casa and schedule your appointment, po. the wait will be shorter. but don't be late, lest your reservation be void.

ano ang effect ng glass detailing sa windshield?

Windshield is tempered glass.

Scratch removal is polishing glass with abrasives. This makes the glass thinner but by a small amount if done right. Detailers with their equipment should be able to do this under 15 minutes. Depending on the depth of the scratch.

Unlike paint na meron layers na pwede matanggal during detailing. Glass detailing isnt complicated.

If you mean glass detailing by adding a coating.. its simply adding a coat or wax.

Gaano katagal ang PMS?

[spectr]

Gaano katagal ang PMS?

Once they start working on your car, between one to two hours depending on the checklist. The only reason why it might take half a day or longer before your car is released in the quote of other cars waiting to be worked.

Gaano katagal ang PMS?

kung walang pila at walang complications ang kotse, an hour or so at the casa.
i always bring something to do, in case i have to wait more. (even if first in line ako, i always get half the day clear, justin case.)

"check fluids" is normally part of the pms check. but to actually add fluids... baka kayo mismo ang mahimatay kapag na-tanggap nyo ang bill for "topping off".
but once in a while, dahil tao din sila, ay nakakaligtaan nila... may tamad times din sila...

it's so easy for the car owner to do it himself. it would be almost negligent on his part, if he did not do something as basic as fluids check and top-off.
besides, it's much, much cheaper if owner does the topping-off, himself.

hello,
i am new here..Car Loans

After bumili ng car ano ba dapat ko gawin or bilhin para maintain ang car? Wala po kasi ako talaga alam sa car so hingi ng tips na dapat gawin.

palitan ng mas malaking mag wheels! then drop it low!
palitan ang stock HU at speakers, at dagdagan ng subwoofer with amplifier!



kidding aside, here are some important things from the owner's manual:
1. familiarize yourself with the dash displays and warnings, and know what does it mean.
2. familiarize yourself how to open the gas tank lid, the trunk, and the bonnet (had seen and heard a lot of funny stories about this, hehe!).
3. know how to check the fluid levels of your car.
4. learn how to change tire. try it at home to have a personal feel.
5. make it a habit to check the tire pressure. buy a tire pressure gauge; looks can be deceiving.

save, save, and save some more! puro palabas ang pera once bumili ka ng car.

ooops! i almost forgot, give your new car a name! hehehe!
