May 26th, 2012 10:40 PM #11Hello everyone,
Plano ko pong magkaron ng car sa june, ano sa tingin nyong mas ok? Ford focus diesel 2012 or elantra? Priority ko ung tipid sa fuel( mas ok kung diesel) at sympre looks din. Kagagaling ko lang sa dealer ng ford at hyundai this week lang. Nadisappoint ako nung malaman kong hndi pa pala offered dito sa pinas ung 2012 focus, late this year or early next year pdaw. At wala ding kasiguraduhan kng magooffer ng diesel, dahl hndi raw pumasa sa cleanliness ung diesel natin dito. Nabasa ko sa isang site na may elantra and sonata diesel na sa india ( Hyundai Elantra, Hyundai Elantra Price, Review, Mileage | CarDekho India ). May chance kayang marelease dito yun sa atin? Malaki ba ang difference ng fuel efficiency ng elantra sa sonata? at kung ano mas matakaw genesis or sonata? Nung nagtanong ako sa dealer about dun sa diesel ang sabi baka matagal pdaw yun, dahil iniiwasan nilang magkabanggaan ng prices ung iba ibang models nila. Ang mahal na kasi ng unleaded e student palang ako. Ano kayang mas ok? Manual GLS or matic? Sa tingin nyo ba sulit ung limited na 1.8L ng elantra? Suggest nadn kayo ng ibang unit kung merong mas ok. Isa pang sabi sakin mahal daw parts ng ford, wala pa akong masyadong idea kasi. pero hndi ba parehas lang un sa hyundai kung 2012 model sila?

parang yan din mga problem ng elantra ko pero hindi ko pa napapacheck sa casa, may lagutok akong naririnig sa may steering wheel kapag nadaan ako sa maliliit na lubak, ganun din sa may right front wheel ko lumalagutok din. mukhang drive shaft and cv joints din problem ng elantra ko. may nabasa din ako dati dito sa elantra thread na napalitan agad yung drive shaft nya at may suspension problem din sha, pero di ko maalala name nya.

The Focus Diesel is a whole lot more expensive than the Elantra. Fuel economy is better than the 1.8, but maintenance costs are more.
There are no common issues for the Dual-Clutch... but nobody knows what problems it will have in the future. The diesel engine itself is pretty reliable, with only the occassional turbo failure if you drive it very hard and don't let it warm up and cool down properly (same as with some high performance turbo cars).
There used to be CV Joint issues for the gasoline Focus... but these aren't shared with the newer model or the diesel. They apparently upgraded the part.
Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

Very low. Price would be too high. Just the 1.6 liter diesel i30 and Elantra cost 1m flat... before... with no options, completely stripped of luxuries. With the same features as the current 1.8, it would likely cost 1.2m for a new 1.6 diesel. Hyundai just doesn't get the tax breaks Ford does, since Ford has a local plant.
Hyundai is focusing on addressing the mass market. Diesel sedans don't sell very well here. Just ask Ford. The original TDCi was a terrific performance bargain... the current is still very cheap considering what you get... but they're not huge sellers.
Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

May 27th, 2012 02:56 PM #17Thank you for a very detailed answer. Ano pong ma-iaadvice nyo sakn?
Should I wait for the ford focus 2012 diesel or just settle with the current Elantra 1.6 m/t or sa 1.8L limited? Around 2months palang ako natuto magdrive(manual), kya mas prefer ko yung manual pero andaming acces nung 1.8L(a/t) kya parang mas gusto ko yun. And advice sakn ng mga longtime drivers mas mganda daw ang automatic, sooner or later daw kasi tatamarin din akong magstickshift. Ano pong opinion nyo dito? The dealer also told me that the 1.8L elantra was very hard to find. Kaya medyo confused ako. Halos 3months nadin akong nagrresearch kng ano bang mgandang car for a student like me.

May 27th, 2012 08:01 PM #18satisfied naman po ako sa pagpurchase ng elantra 1.8, tolerable pa naman para sakin yung noise kaya hindi ko pa pinacheck sa casa, isasabay ko na lang sa next pms ko para di masayang punta ko dun, medyo nadisapoint ako nung una dahil nakumbinsi ako dun sa ads nila na 40mpg, pero ang nakukuha ko is 12-13km/l highway and 7-8km/l, pero naisip isip ko din na tipid na din compare sa 2010 civic 1.8 namin na 6-7km/l lang city and 9-11km/l lang highway.
may previous issue din elantra ko nung first 3 months, minsan ayaw nya magstart, pero nung pinalitan spark plug ko ayun ok na sha.

Get the current Focus. You wouldn't want to be a guinea pig and catch all the possible problems that the new Focus may have. I'm not saying na meron, I'm just saying na baka meron especially since it's a GDi.
And ang alam ko, there will be no 2012 Focus TDCi. Gasoline engine pa siya. GDi engine.
MT vs. AT, personal preference.
Sino ba gagastos ng maintenance? If yung magulang, TDCi na.
