Hyundai Starex (Gen. 3) [ARCHIVED]

**CVT** · January 27th, 2007 01:44 PM

Maybe it's just me, just want to share.

I shifted from Shell diesel to Petron diesel today (since I got my Petron-BPI MC a couple of days ago, and it offers the same 3% rebate for fuel purchases as my Shell-Citibank MC). I noticed that the engine is more quiet with Petron diesel than with Shell diesel and it feels like it has more power during acceleration. Vehicle is Starex 2005 GRX TCI.

OT: I'll definitely checkout Petron's gasoline vs. Shell's on our subcompact....

BTW, OTEP, aren't you in Pex also?

OT: Yep. PEx is the first forum I joined back in the dial-up days.

Lui,
May idea ka sa unit price ng Jumbo body CRDi A/T? Pwede ba indent order ito?

btw, what's it like to drive a crdi starex? i'm used to driving a diesel pickup and SUVs. we had a van before, a chevy venture. i hated driving it bec. it's too long for me. and I always felt like i have a bloated back. gusto ko easily manueverable sa traffic.

panalong-pano naman samin ang Hyundai CRDi coz we already own two.

pero I'm just worried about the jumbo-like body of this van.

the starex is a bit shorter than the venture. IMO, it also feels shorter than the venture/sedona type of minivan. though its taller, and a bit more massive, due to that height, there is more visibility, so i feel it's more manueverable. just think of it as a bigger Santa Fe, with about the same amount of CRDi punch

as Otep would say, demand a test drive so you can find out for yourself if you'll like the driving experience.

It's on top of the center console above the audio and a/c unit near the hazard switch. A small lamp illuminates when the fog lamps are in operation (foglamp only works when parklamps/headlamps are on).

The international symbol for a front foglamp is illustrated on the switch.
