Fellow Tsikoteers,
My left front tire/suspension whenever I run or getting thru a hump or gutter meron syang "plock" sounds. Normal ba yun? dahil ba yun sa front stabilizer? I had a Lancer and a Sorento before pero wala naman akong nararamdamang "plock" sound sa kanila especially kung dadaan ako ng humps or concrete gutter eh.
Appreciate your comment/advice.

went to Hyundai E. Rod kanina for 20k PMS..
Sabi nang SA ko normal lang daw yun engine noise kapag cold start at sa iba din ganun din daw, sana nga normal lang yun engine noise natin..
bakit nung pinagcompare ko dun sa isang tucson sa casa nung maaga ko dumating for check up, tahimik kahit malamig
at kakastart pa lang ng engine niya for checklist...
yung akin naman valve tappet replacement, claim sa warranty...
ask ko ulit this weekend since may papacheck din ako sa kanila...![]()
Just came from e.rod this afternoon. binawasan na nila yung oil and the deep vibration at high revs has gone away na. But reading through the last replies, looks like to cold start noise is a normal thing for our theta IIs.
Now I'll start measuring my fuel economy again. Over last 1000 kms, my fuel economy has averaged at 5.36km/L lang; most of the 1000km was city driving but with the over-filled oil. Now na nabawasan na, hopefully FC will improve.
Does anyone else with a Theta II get as bad a fuel economy as I'm getting?
sa Pasig din ayaw.. dati before namin nabili yung tucson sabi pwede daw magdala ng sariling oil may corkage fee lang na babayaran..
ngayon hindi na pwede....so kahit walang kwenta yung oil nila mapipilitan ka yun ipalagay mo kapag PMS.. badtrip!
san dealer kaya pwede magdala ng sariling oil? sa Hyundai Las pinas ata pwede kaso ang layo...
Nung break in period pa yung Sportage Theta II namin 6km/L lang ang FC. Ngayon umaabot na ng 8km/L city. 7.5km/L average.
2 weeks ago nagpa-20,000km PMS na ako sa Las Pinas, Motul CRDi Specific ginamit kong oil. Ako nagdala ng parts and oil.
Wow tipid nito compared to mine. Kung umabot lang ako ng 7km/L, masaya na ako. The best fuel economy I've ever had is 5.8km/L in a full tank. Anong gas ang nilalagay dyan sa Sportage ninyo and what's the average speed?
Does anyone else have as bad a fuel economy as me? 5.36km/L average lang talaga.
dati madalas ako pumunta sa 5th ave cal, mga 5pm alis na ako from binondo to cal.. average fc naglalaro lang nang 4.5km/l to 5km/l and average speed ko 8km/h to 10km/h lang dahil madalas ma traffic and maraming sirang kalsada.
today bihira na lang ako pumunta sa cal, average fc ko naglalaro na nang 6km/l to 7.3km/l, once ko lang naabot yun 8km/l yun fc ko nun madalas na ako sa MOA madalas light to moderate lang yun traffic.
pero lately, pansin ko parang nag iba yun fc ko cguro malapit na ako mag PMS that time. after ko mag pa PMS kahapon icheck ko ulit yun fc kung nag improve na.
hi guys,
Pa-input lang kasi nagpapa-20K pms ako ngayon (hehe). Just have a few questions/concerns:
1.) ang mahal! abot na ata ako ng 15K+ for the 20k PMS. How much average price sa iba? (Car is tucson thetaII btw).
2.) SA advised me na kelangan daw palitan na yung brake pads. opted not to have this done yet. for those na nag 20K pms na, nagpalit na rin ba kayo? if ever i really do need to change, can you suggest brands ng brake pads na pwede pamalit (parang ayoko na nung OEM because of the noise and dust). Any suggestions on where i can have these installed? (ayoko na sa casa for this simple procedure)
3.) On a positive note, was able to get a warranty claim on the brake light switch at pinapalitan na rin. i dunno if i was lucky kasi may available part or baka mas ok lang talaga yung service sa branch na ito (Q ave). i complained about this sa last pms ko at e.rod, ni-remedyohan lang daw nila kasi wala pang part. ayun, bumalik yung problem.
appreciate any help/inputs.
thanks!
sir, sa e. rod ako nag pa PMS umabot ako sa 10.3k+.
parts na pinalitan;
1. air filter element
2. oil filter
3. spark plug
4.gasket oil plug
labor nasa 7.5k+
scope of works
1. brake cleaning
2. tight suspension
3. power train ( dunno kung anong ginawa)
4. tire rotation
5. electrical
oil use Fully SYN Oil ang ginamit sa akin.
about sa brake pad makapal pa daw sa next PMS na nila icheck ulit and sa brake light switch hindi ko alam kung napalitan nila yun sa akin.
before kasi tumawag sa akin yun service na meron na akong replacement part nang brake light switch.. sabi ko sa 20k pms kona lang ipapakabit, since nun na release yun kotse hindi naman nagloloko yun pag shift sa P to N..
hmm okay. iba yung scope nila kasi pag 20K pms. kasama pati aircon cleaning, aircon filter, camber correction, etc. i guess kaya mas mahal. so sa 15K ba yung sayo? If i remember correctly, mga around 5K lang yung 15k pms ko
