    3. minsan may kumakalampag sa harap, sa steering wheel pag malubak,
    san ko pede paayos ung mga kalampag?

    4. ung makina pag matagal ng tumatakbo, parang umiingay na, parang
    hinihingal.

    5. para san po ung tune up? change oil?

    6. san po mga shops na pede ko paayos? ung mura pero magaling?

    Saan sa dashboard yung crack? AFAIK, wala ka na ata magagawa dito save for ordering a replacement dash from Honda. Kung yung crack nandoon sa painted portion (HU and steering wheel area), baka pwede mong i-patch + repaint. But if the crack is on the unpainted section....

    For the rest of the problems.. you can try SpeedyFix. Better yet, go to the CASA and have your car checked. Then get the list of the problems, and bring your car to SpeedyFix and have them take care of it .

    Some shops who do leather and car interior can repair the damaged dash board by filling in the crack and then painting the entire dashboard to mask the repair. There is one place I know near the city hall of Mandaluyong City.

    BTW, thats only if the crack is on a hard part of the dash. If it's on a soft part, they can use some color matched leather to wrap the dashboard to hide the problem.

    pero patulong naman po dito:

    1. may crack yung dashboard, san ko pede pagawa?
    - malalim ba yung crack? afaik, your best option will have to be the entire dash replaced. pero yari ka sa price nyan. your second option is to have your dash re-upholstered at seatmates.

    2. kapag nag leleft ako, ung steering wheel nya parang naglolock.
    - please give more details.... daming pwedeng causes. may humming sound ba? di na sya bumabalik sa original position?

    3. minsan may kumakalampag sa harap, sa steering wheel pag malubak,
    san ko pede paayos ung mga kalampag?
    - could be that the bushings are worn out. any reputable suspension shop can fix this.

    4. ung makina pag matagal ng tumatakbo, parang umiingay na, parang
    hinihingal.
    - baka pagod na yung makina... hehehehe. when was your last tune-up?

    5. para san po ung tune up? change oil?
    - tune-up consists of changing the oil, the filters, the plugs. preventive maintainance ito boss.

    6. san po mga shops na pede ko paayos? ung mura pero magaling?
    - speedy fix...

    7. paayos ng seat belt? kasi pag tumatakbo, may tumutunog sa gilid.
    - baka kailangan lang ng lubrication. try mo sprayan lang ng WD-40.

    mga magkano kaya magagastos ko paayos ng lahat?
    - no idea. dalahin mo na lang kay speedyfix para sya na tumira lahat.
    salamat po!
    hth.

    Hindi ata pwedeng ipa re-upholster ito. The dash of the cith'03 is mainly molded plastic with a leather like surface texture. Two tone yan -- Dark beige/Light beige if your car is black or metallic beige, dark gray/light gray otherwise. If your crack lies on the molded plastic part, then even if you can seal up the patch with a matching colored putty, it will still be highly visible unless you can match the molded texture.

    The head unit (center) and instrument panel part of the dashboard is painted. It has no texture (smooth). This makes it easy to repair. If the crack is in that area, it's a simple matter of applying putty and repainting.

    Saan part ba ng dashboard yung may crack? Baka pwede mo na lang lagyan ng dashboard ornament or air freshener yung part na yon para matago. Hassle din magpapalit ng dashboard. Kung palitan yan, you run the risk of introducing rattling/kalampag.
