2014 Honda City (Gen 4)

[Egan101]

Went up to Bagiuo before using our previous gen City 1.5E. Wala naman issues kahit puno kami. I managed to set a good pace going up Kennon. I don't the newer gen will have any struggles taking up the same route.

thats the thing, guys here probably have kids. safety is of concern.

i see so many guys going down baguio without brake lights... engine braking even accelerating!

you cannot define fast and slow. we do not all share the same driving skills.
normal driving speed of one person is maybe too slow or maybe too fast to other person.

How about for AT without S or paddle shifters... do we stop first before shifting the gear from D to L/2 or no need to decelerate and just shift?

Engine braking in itself will not damage your transmission. It's perfectly fine for a car to stay at a high rpm (which is when engine braking works).

The problem is when coming from low rpm then suddenly going to high rpm without proper rev matching. When driving a manual, most people don't rev match - they just slot it to a lower gear and release the clutch and wait for the revs to rise. That puts a lot of stress on the clutch and transmission - you can avoid it by revving the engine to the expected rpm of the lower gear before releasing the clutch.

For automatics, most non-sports cars don't have auto-blipping, but the ECU is smart enough to be conservative about the downshifting (or ratio adjustment for CVT) to not burn out the clutch/pulleys.

Bottomline - engine braking is crucial for continuous downhill driving, and it isn't harmful to your transmission when done right.

Tingin ko, part ng rin ng di pagkakaunawaan dito e siguro iba-iba inisiip kung ano ibig sabihin ng engine brake.

Para sa mga naka-automatic, meron ba gumagawa na (A) ilalagay sa D yung shifter na ibig sabihin e magdidire-diretso yung kotse mo sa pag-accelarate 'tas brakes lang gagamitin mo para bumagal sa downhill? May gumagawa ba ng ganito kapag downhill from Baguio? Agree naman sana tayo lahat na risky yung ganito. Kaya nga merong mga signboard na use low gear eh.

Yun ginagawa ko, na ito ang tinatawag ko na engine braking is, (B) ilalagay ko sa S yung shifter 'tas ipipirmi ko sa 2nd or 3rd gear kapag downhill at pag ganito e mostly coasting lang ginagawa ko pag pababa ng Baguio kasi hindi mag-aaccelerate na dirediresto yung kotse. Tataas lang RPM pero hindi ko naman pinapaabot ng redline syempre, haha. Syempre gagamit din ng brakes para hindi umabot ng redline. Pero kapag nakalow gear e alalay lang ang speed. Mabilis man o mabagal takbo mo pababa, mas kontrolado lang ang speed kasi nakalimit sa gear. Ngayon, meron ba nagsasabi na masisira transmission kapag ganito ang ginagawa? Kung oo masisira, baket??? Meron ba dito nag-iisip na kapag sinabi namin na nag-eengine braking, ibig sabihin e hindi na kami gumagamit ng brakes?

Huli, meron ba dito na (C) ang ginagawa e D kapag downhill 'tas kapag gustong bumagal e magdadownshift gamit ang paddles bigla hanggang umabot sa 1st gear?

Para sa mga manual, tingin ko instinct na na mag engine braking na parang (B).

its the skill of the driver in handling his car that differs his point of view whether he is going too fast or too slow. baguio is just ordinary for me since im used to steep inclines. we are from mountainous province anyway.
example are those taxi drivers in baguio. visitors outside the city who are not used to inclines might say they are too fast on dowhill even though they are just driving at their normal speed.

No. Too fast or too slow should be based on the speed limit of the road. Follow the rules man, hindi dahil kaya mo mabilis e totodo mo na.

hindi bro what I mean is iba iba kasi preference ng tao. ung iba kasi 80kph matulin na para sa kanila. ung iba hanggang 100kph lang kaya. ung iba more than that. thats why I say na magkakaiba ang mabilis at mabagal na pananaw ng bawat driver.
and also hindi lang speed limit ang basehan. pwede din ung acceleration mo. meron kasi ung driver na pabigla bigla mag accelerate meron din ung smooth lang acceleration. just my opinion lang naman[emoji111]

simply going down doesnt need special skills. just dont drive too fast and keep distance.

Mga ka-GM6 Quick question:

May sound/alarm ba pag naka-engage yung hand-brake tapos nag drive ka for a couple of minutes?

TIA

Thank you bro. Worried lang baka may times na hindi ko napansin naka engage handbrake tapos hindi ko din napansin yung indicator sa cluster hehe.

lakas ng beep kapag hindi ka nakaseat belt pero kapag may pinto na hindi naisara ng maayos isang beep lang mahina pa.
sa driver seatbelt lang ba talaga ang may sensor wala ba sa front passenger?
