Tama na!

I'm selling my FB for this!

Getting very antsy about the upcoming car purchase.

On a related note, I'm just wondering. What is the current rule on use of brand new cars? I assume when someone buys a brand new car, the dealer will still process the actual car registration and the OR/CR will be released a few days after. But the car will already have a conduction quicker and a MV File Number.

Is the owner allowed to use his car? Or does he have to wait until the OR/ CR has been issued?

You can use it for 7 days after purchase. If your OR/CR hasn't arrived by then, you can't use your car until it does.

Have you decided which car to get already?

AFAIK the MV file number will be generated upon registration, so it comes with the CR. I waited for my OR/CR before using my unit, better safe than sorry

From what the agent told me, the car already has an MV File Number. But I guess they will still have to process the OR/ CR under my name?

That might be the case. With the "No OR/CR, no travel" policy, you gotta wait for the registration anyway. It's a hassle for car buyers.

you can require the dealer to process the or/cr before releasing the unit, so it will be legal to use.

I'll push through with the Civic 1.8E. Another agent just contacted me to tell me that a unit is available for me. I'll just have to process the refund from the other agent, in the meantime.

Sa mga kumuha ng Civic Rs.
Kumusta fuel consumption pag city driving?
Meron ba kayo nakuha discount for cash buyer?

Bought an RS 4 months ago. No cash discount (Honda Pangasinan).

City FC: no idea, wala masyado traffic dito sa province. Not the answer to your question, but I recently went on a 400+ KM round trip on national roads (Manaoag-Vigan-Manaoag) and averaged 14.9km/L.

That's really good FC. Best I've gotten is 14.1 km/L with a 1.6 Altis, at night without any traffic. Daytime FC is about 11 km/L.

With my 1.8 Civic I'm averaging 12 km/L now with daytime travel and the usual provincial traffic. I'm already driving nicely at that.

The drive was all during daytime, ECON off, sporadic shifts to "S" (on twisties and uphill road sections, mostly). I think it helped that the flow of traffic was mainly limited to the 60-80kph sweet spot and I often could not go faster due to the lack of opportunities to overtake.

After the trip, I went to fill my tank (I left with a full tank) and confirmed the computed FC. It also helped that my passenger (the GF) is averse to spirited driving, so I had to take it easy most of the time lest I get a scolding.

Sir may I ask gasoline type you used ? Thanks

Excellent restraint on your end. I probably wouldn't be able to last 10 minutes without overtaking.

Did you take note of your average speed during the trip?

Just travelled Laoag to San Juan LU today, 12 km/L * 42 kph average speed. Traffic was pretty bad after Vigan and lots of road construction works in Ilocos Sur and LU.

Hindi pa ata na-release yung IRR nya. Soon sana, madami rin kaskaserong bus drivers hehehe

It's not the buses that are the problem. They usually go at around 80 kph on the provincial highway, I actually don't mind trailing behind them for a bit.

What ruins my pace and fuel efficiency are the tricycles. You're coasting at a leisurely 80-100 kph and then suddenly have to brake to 30 kph. Then overtake, accelerate again at full throttle to avoid the oncoming car, only to brake again for the next set of slow tricycles.

This is why I prefer to travel at night. Travel time is almost halved and fuel efficiency is better by 2 km/L even if I travel at a faster pace.

Yup, tricycles do it for me, too. Some cargo trucks were a bother, too: wide, long, and slow, and in a convoy of 2-3, makes overtaking a bit difficult. Buses, not so much, unless they drop off/pick up passengers and they just stop in the middle of the road to do it.

Try mo iBypass coolant hose going to the throttle-body. Yan yung isa sa napakaraming dahilan kung bakit malakas fuel consumption. You need to RESET the pcm and relearn idle to see the difference. Ilan km max range pag full tank?

Thanks, but I don't have the first clue how to do that. Hindi ako magaling sa mga mechanical stuff hehehe.

The FC is fine with me, just tested lang how much it would be, but OK lang ako however much the FC would be, since seldom-used ang car.

Good advice for those wanting to increase FC, though! Others would most likely find your advice useful.
