[airolynx]

*airolynx: yup matulin din yang ecosport pero di pa nya na lampaso ang 1.7L crdi ng KIA.

Haha! Yeah hirap siya mag catch up. Im looking forward how the ecosport will perform pag sinalpakan na ng ecoboost engine. Hehe.

[airolynx]

Naalala ko tuloy yung YouTube video ng apat na Pakistani na nakasakay ng lumang Accent CRDI 200 kph takbo on an uneven dusty road.

Hehe yeah I saw that video too!

Yung sakin Dec. 2013 acquired. Mag 65,000 kms na. Average FC over a full tank ay 17.5 kms/lit. Pag urban drives, maybe 15/lit. Highway at 100 kms/hr almost 25/ liter. Extra urban around 19/lit. No major problems. Wala pang kalampag. Doors still close with a thud. I use Total Excellium diesel.

Yung samin Dec. 2014 nabili, AT. Hindi kasi marunong mag-manual si kumander kaya AT kinuha namin. 17k+ kms na. Ave. FC sa mixed City/Hi-way is 12.5kmpl. Bacoor - Cavitex - BGC - Libis ang daily route ko during rush hour. Hinahataw ko lang kapag may opportunity, pero madalas stuck sa traffic hehe. Nung nag-punta kami sa Tarlac with 4 passengers and ave. Speed of 120kmph sa highway, umabot ng 17.5kmpl. Unioil ako before then Caltex then Seaoil then V Nitro Diesel na for 2 months na. Gusto ko i-try yung Petron Turbo Diesel Euro 4 kaso wala pa ako makita malapit samin. Had a minor issue, nadali yung flexible coupling nung nadaan ako sa malalim na lubak. No problem naman sa pag-claim ng warranty, ni-replace agad yung broken part ni Hyundai Alabang. No other issues. Good as new sya ngayon

Para makatulong o makagulo sa pagpili mo ng kotse,

We have 2 hyundai accent Crdi's-

- a hatchback 2013 model bought June 2014 ( i really look for the 2013 model since it has better features than 2014) with 25k on the odo.

- a 2015 sedan bought last March with 10k odometer reading.

Before we got the hatch, we had 2009 getz crdi whick was later bought by a car tuner in Baguio City.

Average of 22km/liter on highway and around 15kms/liter on city, 95% with only one passenger. Lahat kami ayaw magsasakay ng 3 or 4 sa sasakyan 😈

No issues so far. Daily drive pareho.

And why is that you don't want 3 or more passengers? How about sa maintencance cost? Some says kasi the savings on the kilometers per liter will just be eaten up by it?

[Sarsi]

Ayaw ko. Simple as that.

[mavski]

I see. I thought it has something to do with the suspension thing when carrying more passengers

I carry a lot of heavy stuff in my trunk & sometimes have my wife, a big boy & a 7 year old girl as passengers in addition to the stuff I carry. Does not seem to bottom out. It is not wanting on power too with the excess cargo. I think the issue with the soft suspension was in the early model sedan.

Mga sir pa share naman papano maiingatan ang ating turbo? Para sa mga baguhang tulad ko,

Kung ok lang sana ur complete advice para sa turbo, TIA mabuhay kayo!

Caring for the turbo is actually straight forward.

Before you drive in the morning, let the engine idle for 10 to 20 seconds before driving off. Do not race the engine after starting up.

Before you switch off, let the engine cool down for a minute or 2 to let the turbo spool down and allow the oil to cool. Never race the engine prior to turning off.

And most importantly, never skip oil changes. As much as possible, use fully synthetic oil. The engine oil is the only thing that keeps your turbo alive.

If you want more information, the manual actually contains detailed information too.

have fun with your new accent!

[sedmadtab]

Pag fully po tama po ba 10k km bago magpalit?

[bloowolf]

Pag fully po tama po ba 10k km bago magpalit?

Ito advise pag fully synthetic oil mo. Every 5k pms, change oil filter at top up ng oil. Every 10k pms, change oil & filter. Sa mineral oil, change oil & filter every 5k. Basta every 5k, pumunta ka sa casa para sa PMS mo. Wag ka mag skip kundi voided warranty mo.

[airolynx]

Tama si bloowolf. And isa pa pala every 10k kms palit ka air filter. Yung turbo mo kasi sucks in air that passes through the air filter. Pag napabayaan yan, or pag low quality filter nagamit, its possible na me mga debris na mapunta sa turbo and ruin it.

based on our experienced.... on all kinds of turbo.... never rev. or step on the gas pedal immediately before turning off your engine, regular change oil and never over rev.....

actually kahit nga hindi ka na mag cooldown... hindi naman nasisira ang turbo... cooldown lang ng 10 secs...

Re: the air filter, have you tried looking at the air filter housing? Ang daming debris na nahihigop nun, like sand, leaves & insects. Kaya I vacuum it weekly.

Actually, the car owner's manual only recommends a minute cool down if the car was driven hard or when used to pull a heavy load, like a trailer. Some would say the slow drive before reaching your destination is enough to cool down the turbo.

I did and yes ang dami ngang nahihigop. Good thing yung design ng filter housing nya is nasa itaas yung filter. Vinavacuum ko din siya when I do my carash.
