well i got my 1st PMS 1000km checkup

at Hyundai Ortigas Ave..

Cost me 6,133 pesos using synthetic oil..

took them1-1/2 hour to finish it was amazed how

fast its done..

Ah yung gps mo ba yung nasa gitna on top of the dashboard? Its possible integrated na yung antenna sa unit. Yung sa mga headunit gps kasi may separate antenna sila.

Yup bro integrated din yung antenna ng Streetpilot. Medyo napatawad ko na quirks ng gps na ito, last week bumigay din yung Garmin. Wala yatang matibay na gps hehe.

*laeloren
Congrats sir!

*BoyBakal
Yan din concern ko, pinapalitan ba talaga langis sa 1,000kms checkup? Sobrang dali kasi na di naman palitan, hintay lang sila ng 1 hr or so and then tell you na ginawa naman nila. Malinis pa din naman yung oil sa 1,000kms so mahirap mahalata unless you totally drain it and find the metal shavings from break-in. Sana meron Hyundai casa na pwede mo panoorin yung gawa nila.

Our oil expert at THP, bro.Naruto, tells us that we should use mineral oil until about 10KKm to 20KKm.... And, synthetic oil only after that.....

Yan din ang concern ko. Buti nalang sa pitstop ako bumili ng starex. Nung 1k pms andun ako mismo sa tabi ng gs ko at pinapanood habang pinapalitan yung oil

[CVT]

^^^ Iyan sana ang ideal setup bro.

Kaso, hindi nga ganyan sa Casa.... Sana man lang masilip mo kung ano ang ginagawa sa sasakyan....

Isa pang problema pag hindi mo nakikita yung gawaan is paano tayo nakasisiguro na ang nilagay na oil ay fully synthetic o mineral? Lalu na kung binayaran mo full synthetic tapos mineral lang nilagay sayo. Useless din hingin ang container kasi hindi naman lahat ng customer kinukuha container nila, so most probably marami ng stock ang casa na ganyan. Ang gagawin mineral ilalagay then kuha ng nakatabing fs oil na konti nalang natira then balik sayo.

[Starex_Gold]

Kaya kapag nasa Casa mas mabuti kapag nakikita mo habang nilalagay yung engine oil eh. Sinasabihan ko yung security guard ng Hyundai Las Pinas na pupunta ako sa service bay habang nilalagay yung engine oil na baon ko kasi mahirap na.

Sa CRDi engines, I believe semi synthetic or fully synthetic nalang pwede gamitin. Ayoko na sumugal sa mineral oil, kung Theta II engines nagiiba tunog, CRDi pa kaya.

Just changed my Grand starex horn to "Bosch Europa Silver"

Its sooooo much better now... was surprised isa lang pala horn ng stock

also got an HID 8000K for low beam & white bulb for park lights worth 300 pesos



Here's the position of the horn coz some shops i canvassed don't recommend

using the bosch europa due to the space, they just don't know where to install

i guess..






Nighttime driving is 100 percent better since i use a full tint on my windshield.

Congrats on your europa silver, but i suggest you get a projector retrofit for your headlights or revert back to stock. Ang dami mong makakaaway niyan sa daan because sabog at malakas ang glare ng hid pag stock halogen housing lang. And yung 8000k hid mo useless pag umulan.

Not recommended to replace your stock halogen bulb to HID if your low HL is not projector type

Thanks sir bratski & trackers for the reply.. i've driven it once last night and i don't see anyone flashing back from a

1-1/2 hour city drive.. about the rain thing i guess ill have to experience it pa since wala pa naman rain lately..

[ARCHIE.ALMARIO]

mga sir baka po meron sa inyong workshop manual ng grand starex, pwede pong pa share?

[yebo]

di ka pa lang nakakatagpo. pag may nakasalubong kang mainit ang ulo baka mabasag pa windshield mo. bawal naman kasi ang HID na hindi naka-projector at talaga naman nakakasilaw sa kasalubong. and may options naman na tama, either use the correct type bulb but higher output (Philips extreme power, Raybrig), or convert to projectors.

[CVT]

^^^ Agree. Ako, nag-convert na lang ng Philips XP sa low beam, and then super yellow sa highbeam for better visibility during rainy night driving....

i still think that people who install full tints on their windshield and then upgrade to higher brighter HID lights or higher wattage halogen bulbs are so inconsiderate of others.. pwedi naman kasi mag sunglasses during the day.. if you do get full windshield tints. then get the clear tints that protect from the heat.. not dark tints so that you will be able to see properly at night..

Babae si Laeloren bro

Hirap sa Greenhills ayaw ng customers sa work area, kapraning tuloy tsk. Usually gawa ko pameryenda ng SA para mabantayan. Pero even then may konting duda pa rin. Hancars supposedly magkakaroon na ng sariling service katabi ng bagong showroom nila. Pero matagal pa siguro matapos yun.

[jdee12]

san ba talaga mga bro maganda kumuha ng unit? sa Hancars or sa Pitstop?

Sa hancars mas ok ang specs pero problema ang service.

Kay Pitstop din ang service ni Hancars..
