mga sir may tanong pa ako tungkol sa driving style nyo. assuming flat level road, ilang RPMs bago kayo mag-shirt? nakakasama ba sa transmission ng jazz natin kapag 1.5K rpms pa lang shift na kaagad? ganito kasi ung driving style ko, 40 KPH pa lang 5th gear na. matipid sya sa fuel pero sabi ng erpats ko masama daw sa transmission. TIA.
Dinefer ko muna ang pagbili ng customized waterproof car cover since may nabasa akong article na nakakasira daw sa paint kung di breathable un cover. Sabi naman ng friend ko un nylon type daw nakakacause ng bubbles sa paint. If anyone can suggest a good type or brand of car cover for outdoor use, please do share.
Ayos lang mag shift ng 1.5k rpms siguro hanggang 3rd gear pero safest pa rin 2k rpm para hindi bitin ang hatak. Long geared din kasi Jazz natin so stick to 2k-2.5k rpm. Lalo na 1st and 2nd gear ang haba. Lalo na pag A/T's like mine. Kaya ako from standstill gamit lagi paddle shifter ko. Nahahabaan kasi ako sa pag shift nya from 1st to 2nd gear.
salamat sir!
actually 1st->2nd gear 2K rpms ako bago ako mag shift kasi bitin nga ung hatak. pero sa ibang gears naman 1.5-1.75K rpms ung shift points ko. pag kasi ganito ung driving style ko pansin ko ang taas nung FC ko eh. un nga lang worried ako baka nakakasira sya ng engine or transmission.
oh by the way, just a follow through, the scratch and dent in the pic below are now gone. naayos na ng casa kaya no more worries. cost the insurance 6500, but i only paid 2k for the participation. singilin ko pa yung kapitbahay nmin. hehe. honda pasig took 2 days to repair the damage. may free car wash din pla after the repair. im satisfied. lesson learned: never underestimate the sampayan.

Ayos sir! Makinis na ulit yan. Buti isang panel lang tinamaan nung sampayan. Hehe.
to s10pao, as a rule of thumb u can always judge kung too early ang shifting mo depende sa response ng engine depending on the load at that time. if u are on level road or downhill with few passengers i guess its not a problem. if u are going uphill, i think u will sense the engine is having a hard time....to the point of increased vibration and or takatak sound coming fm. engine then its time to down shift.....
so btw yung 1.3li VTEC Jazz ano ang RPM mo at 5th. gear running at 100kph?
Just installed wing type spoiler from the CASA. Di ko masyadong type un kinalabasan. Bakit ganun? Laging mas maganda tingnan sa pictures. Hehe. I also installed sensitivity alarm, arm rest and sports pedals from the CASA. I decided to buy Mugen Door Visors. Oks lang naman un itsura. Pangit lang tingnan un blisters/clips. I'm still thinking whether to install a volt stabilizer. I've read mixed reviews. Most saying di naman nila napansin un difference. Basically, it's all in the mind.
salamat sir. actually nag-do-downshift naman ako kapag naramdaman ko na nag-da-drag na ung engine. pero kasi nung minsang sakay ko erpats ko, sabi nya nag-da-drag daw pero para sa akin hinde naman. kailangan ko lang siguro mas masanay pakiramdaman kasi dati gamit ko adventure.
di ko pa na-try 100KPH, puro city driving kasi tapos minamaximize ko fuel economy. after siguro ng 1K PMS

congrats sir! ang dami mong burn sa jazz mo abro pag napapangitan ka sa clips ng mugen visor mo tanggalin mo na lang, yung sa akin di ko nilagay. Regarding the volt stabilizer, esep esep.. para sa akin may naitutulong yan sa kuryente ng sasakyan mo, nagiging smooth ang takbo ng kuryente sa electricals mo, resulting to a more efficient use of battery power. Kung napapansin mo ang fluctuations ng kuryente sa kotse, yun namiminimize un ng volt stabilizer. sa akin, quieter engine and brighter headlights. hth
aw.. buti pa kayo no problems at all.. haayy
i'll undergo operation tom.. metropolitan hospital.. 40k expense.. varicocelectomy..
cannot drive until 2weeks.. haay..
i wish i never had this problem and spend it to my jazz instead.. haay..
wish me luck guys.. hehe.. =(
