    Gandang umaga mga ka-Tucson,


    Meron po akong 4 month old na Tucson GLS AT model. As of today, naka 5k checkup na sya and odo reading is around 5500km. Last Saturday my familiy went to Tagatay for an overninght stay. Medyo tanghali na kami umalis at kailangan kong bilisan ng konti since may isa pa kaming familiy na kasama at nauna na doon sa place na pupuntahan namin. Habang binabaybay namin ang Sta Rosa-Tagay Road which is mostly a uphill road, nag umpisa na akong mag overtake kung safe at maluwag. Suddenly, eto na, I overtake once again at medyo hinabaan ko ang distance para makasunod ang ibang vehicle. And after that I went to my proper lane kasi may kasalubong na, but before it happens, a cruising Toyota 1.3 Vios got my attention. Kasi sa sobrang bilis nya hindi ako makakablik agad sa linya ko, at ito na, I had to step up on my gas para umusad pa ng husto. And there it goes, my RPM hit the 4k and then 5k+ mark and a white smoke emmitted out to my Tucson. Grabe, bakit ganon? Kelangan bang mamuti ang usok pag ganon kataas ang RPM? I never experienced this on my previous car especially yung 2000 CR-V ko. It also hit more than 5k RPM but nothing happen. And this is what I noticed since day one of my Tucson. Sobrang bagal ng response pag uphill, ang diin na ng tapak mo sa gas (syempre tataas RPM) but to no avail, hindi agad humahatak. Nakakatakot tuloy um-overtake, parang mag e-engine blow sa taas ng RPM. Any comment on this is very much appreciated mga ka-Tucson. Sensya na ang haba ng kwento ko. God Bless !!!

    yung white smoke minsan depende kasi sa weather yan. kung asa tagaytay ka at malamig/foggy, mukha talagang white smoke yung lalabas sa kotse mo kasi mainit yung exhaust. since malamig at moist yung hangin, ang labas ng usok ay white.

    pero ang galing lang kasi talaga na napansin ni TS yung white smoke mula sa tucson niya while overtaking at 5K rpm at walang hatak

    does elevation affects combustion? Kasi on higher elevation, manipis na yong hangin. Sa pagkakaalam ko, smoke of that magnitude is due to fuel burnt improperly.

    Pero I could be wrong, and we'll leave it na lang to the experts, and better have it checked immediately para madiagnose agad if indeed may problema yong makina...

    Just my 2 cents though.

    ...Ganon na nga po ang gagawin ko this week. Habang naka warranty pa. I hope this is not a lemon car. First time ko magkaroon ng brand new na vehicle. Ganito pa mangyayari.
    Maraming salamat po sa mga input nyo....

    Correction na rin po sa thread title ko : RPM po hindi PRM
