prone to knock talaga ang manual specially if youre on the wrong gear. tama yung comment, sobrang naging issue dito sa pinas ang knocking 1.4 gamma sa ibang bansa wala naman.

Malinis kasi fuel dun sa ibang bansa, dito hindi talaga.

Balik unleaded na ako ng shell pero after ng knock parang naglow power. Pagmabilis ang andar tapos nagslow down hirap umarangkada d makaovertake. Sabe ng casa wala daw low power na lumabas sa computer. So advice is magtry muna mag 95 octane. Yan daw recommend nila sa mt 1.4. 95 octane is premium ata pero hindi pa vpowe sa shell? Observe muna ako 1 week pagkarga ng 95.

95 Octane ang VPower, Premium is 93 Octane

isang palit ko lang ng gasolina naresolve na knocking ko. madumi lang talaga yung nakarga.
unleaded gamit ko d na nagknock.....so fuel knock lang talaga not engine knock. magkaiba daw kse yun.

Using fuel with lower octane rating than what is recommended will result in engine knock. Never heard of fuel knock.

at last saw the kia rio hatch variant. according to sa aside from no LED, wala din daw autolight and rain sensor/auto wiper. maganda nga ang leather seats kahit combination. looks elegant inside compared to the all black cabin imo.

for 800k without the LED lights but with leather seats... not bad.

sa hatch owners, have you tried to check FC with ECO mode On?

**c_cube** · June 11th, 2012 10:49 AM

may eco mode ba yun rio hatch? parang hindi ko napansin nun pumunta ako sa showroom nun sat. wala akong nakita button for on and off... ?

mga napansin ko sa HB
- stock USB cable ng apple pwede na gamitin for playing music. hindi na kelangan nun nabibili na may pin at usb na magkasama
- connect your mobile using bluetooth can also play music or mp3

nakita ko din yun limited model na brown interior, mas sulit yun 838K kaysa dun sa 800K. at tsaka para sa akin mas maganda ang all black interior.

tingin ko for a 1.4 engine with all the features and accessories.. bung for the buck parin. dami nagsasabi na mahal daw for a 1.4 pero imo hindi naman. tingin ko nga mas sulit pa siya kaysa sa fiesta (no offense meant)

Meron ECO Mode ang Rio hatch. Although sa Europe there is a dedicated push button Eco function(they call it Eco Dynamics), here it is integrated on the steering wheel according to the SA. Played with the variant version last Sunday, you can turn on the ECO mode in the cruise control button sa right side ng driving wheel. The "ECO MODE" will show on the supervision cluster when it is activated.

maybe the reason why the "Eco Mode" button is dedicated in other country is because aside from the engine/computer adjustments there is also an auto shut off feature when you're on a full stop etc.

ano color ng hatch na nakita mo na brown interior? yung nakita ko black sya and not graphite, wala daw sila iba color except for black sa variant.

agree, value for money talaga feature nito for looks and features dept. sa makina lang sumablay sana 1.6GDI.
