Hindi naman Limousine yung GS namin. Semi Limousine siya. It has 4 captain chairs (driver, front passenger and the 2nd row seats). The 2 front seats has heaters, with the driver's seat also having a cooler also (I tried it kanina and kagabi). Mas worth it ang Semi Limousine kesa Limousine. You don't need a high roof and its drawers. Pag yun ang kinuha mong variant ng GS, the sensors at the tollgates of the expressways will automatically classify it as Class 2 due to its height. Mabenta ang Semi Limousine. Sobrang sulit for the price. Only the gray market has that variant

Much better and more value for money than the Alphard. I will refer you to Eurostandard if you go with the GS.

By the way, our GS Semi Limousine came with a mini refridgerator as standard. ☺

Good deal from Eurostandard sir ah. If given a chance to buy a GS again. Sa Eurostandard na ako kukuha. It looks like di nila inooverrate ang GS when it comes to maintenance.

*numbah5,

Nice! Enjoy!

Reason i asked about the tint is because they've previously tinted a friend's newly released ride with 'VKool OEM'. May pagka-pink yung shade from the inside! That's when they admitted 'Class B' yung gamit nila...

Gamit nilang oil brand is S-Oil. If you go 100% (fully) synthetic, yung S-Oil DXO ilalagay nila. Rated API CG-4, CH-4 and CI-4 yun with 10W40 viscosity. Change oil is every 8-10k kms. Unlike the other famous gray market dealer of Hyundai vehicles which uses Castrol oils that downgrades the performance of the GS and insists on changing the oil every 5k kms even though you are using fully synthetic oil.

*IMm29, mine doesn't have a pinkish shade. It's the same as the OEM 05 installed on our Trailblazer and BRZ.

Eurostandard showed to us the sample shades on V-Kool's brochure, kaya nakapili kami ng maayos.

Good good! Sana natakot na sila Eurostandard at tumino na ang "V-Kool" nila. By your indication, pwede ka na magkabit ng 'I'm VKool' sticker. Hehehe!

Good news din sa oil. Gotta love competition. Brings out good alternatives.

Actually, since I first started to talk to them (last January pa), I compared them to Hancars and Pitstop in terms of convincing us to buy the GS from them. Very professional kausap and nag-uupdate kahit gabi na. And kahit gabi na they still entertain questions from us. Si Pitstop, maayos din naman kausap except for the male SA na malakas mang BS. Hancars naman, sorry pero I find them masungit. Kulang sa customer service. In terms of discounts, pinakagenerous si Eurostandard. They gave us a huge discount. 50k, bank financing payment. Pitstop, same payment mode 30k discount. Hancars, 20k discount same payment mode.

Oo, bolero at mahilig magbitaw ng mga false info yung male SA na yun sa Pitstop. Sabi niya yung mga PHDM Santa Fe hindi raw e-VGT ang makina dahil CRDi lang daw ang emblem sa likod at yung mga KDM lang ang
e-VGT. Akala siguro niya lahat ng customer walang alam sa sasakyan.

Dapat nga maging mas cautious sya sa binibitawan nyang salita, sa tingin ko kasi kadalasan ng bumibili ng KDM GS eh yun ang mas may alam tungkol sa sasakyan, normally kasi yung mga wala masyadong alam sa sasakyan bibilhin nyan ang unang makita sa casa, usually pa naman di lahat ng tao alam na may nageexist na KDM at HARI version ng GS.

Teka. Ilan ba male SA ng pitstop? Baka siya na yung nasa isip ko kung nag iisa lang siya dun. At ka-ibigan niya yung may ari ng pitstop? WTF !! Hahaha

yeah but i need a daily drive with a massage chair and comfy room... mukhang gmc savana lang ata meron kaso masyadong malaki(duramax diesel)

sa grand sta. fe naman driver side lang meron.

sorry no idead na iba ang semi limousine sa limoune ng starex

huwag niyo ng itanong kung bakit kailangan ng massage chair( lumbar)

by the way numbah5 how's your land rover and tb?

**numbah5** · June 30th, 2014 08:24 AM

Saka na LR. It's not yet needed. TB is fine. But I'm still enjoying the GS since it's the newest car. It's more comfy and a lot easier to drive than the TB and my Montero, with a quieter diesel engine also. The GS is roomy naman. I'm sure the heater on the driver's seat can be very relaxing also

Baka naman maihi yung driver niyan. Hahaha!

Actually for something that big, it's quite easy to drive even in the Metro. And yes, very comfortable.

What's the ideal tire pressure sirs? I find the 42 front 47 rear a bit hard and ride is a bit harsher. Basta the ideal tire pressure makes the ride comfy and won't accelerate the wear and tear of the tires.

I use 45 all around but that's also in part because I'm on 18s. You might wanna try 42 all around first.

Tahimik yung tires bro, medyo tumagtag at pag nalubak ramdam mo yung pag crash ng suspension dahil sa thinner tire walls

On our 17's oem hvx, 40 psi lamg gamit, try nyo bawasan kahit 2psi lang ang laki mg effect

Regarding shocks naman dont change it, ours is at 98k kms na ok pa naman, nag six years na sya last month.

Mas nauna pa nasira yung tailgate lifter kesa sa shocks, since mabigat talga tailgate ng gs

Was also able to replace the bearing assy on the sliding door dahil hindi na lapat, it allows outside to come in including fumes from Outside

**fast lane** · July 1st, 2014 07:25 PM

But was able to change with a lot of air filter fuel, filter, cabin filter all at 10k kms interval

Ang worry ko lang eh 6 years na di ko pa napapagalaw aircon, sabi nila if not broken why fix it, kaya ayun malamig pa din.

Not to mention sangkatutak na brake pads and 1 set of rotors on its first year
