    Again. It's very dangerous. Done this because I'm gonna be late for a very important meeting.

    switching to wider tires and lowering the car plus skirts and spoiler might help but its very hard to look for wider tires and [COLOR=blue! important][COLOR=blue! important]wheels[/color][/color] that will perfectly fit our picanto.
    I never stayed naman for 150kph for a long period. tipong upon reaching mga 5 secs lang then stay lang ako sa 120-130kph. pero mabilis pa din. wala naman cars masyado. Pero ramdam mo nga yung parang lilipad ka.

    i think kahit once specially new cars like our picas maibirit natin not necessarily to the limit just to heat up the engine just like a break in period. Last monday nagpunta kmi tagaytay continuous 90-110 km/h feel ko gumanda pick up lng engine ko. unlike sa break in my limit kase sa speed. im not a 100% sure im not an expert tipong driver la ang



    gsto ko try beyond 120km/h kaso wla ako maisip san pumunta at magandang puntahan

    As long as it's in good condition and the warranty is good, that's a great deal. ;)

    Old look model ba?

    Ang pagbalik ng comeback...

    yeah. yung square ilaw sa likod. I like it better than the newer one, mas panlalaki i think over the curves of the 2008. it is covered by the warranty, pero wala pa sa akin yung warranty, nasa planta pa raw. it looks good next to our new SWB Kia Carnival. hehe...

    after 2 days of driving my picanto, i here some rumbling sounds, lalo na when idling... its coming from the compressor i think kasi pag off ang aircon, wala naman... and i agree about vibrations. i get it at 120+ kph, lumalaban ang steering... ano ba corerct tire pressure nito? kasi i got it from kia at 25psi, i upped it to 30psi.

    Have it checked. Ako nasanay nako sa sound specially sa mga door locks. Those sounds are caused by plastic part that are rubbed or are not aligned. One solution is to put old slim rubber slippers to eliminate sound. And also to reduce road noise. Use dynamat or similar product.

    Vibrations at high speeds naman. Recommended pressure is 30 psi. Full load 32 psi. Using wider tires will reduce "kabig" sa steering wheel.

    Hi guys!

    Am newbie here. Right now i'm owning a 1997 civic. the Lxi variant to be exact. But am planning to get a picanto this month. i have talked to several agents and they have given me great deals. One is the trade in. they would buy my lxi at P190K plus they will give me a P50K subsidy for a total of P240K. that's almost a 50% down for the 2008 picanto.

    However, there are two things that confuse me for the moment.

    First, should i trade in my civic? would i not miss this car if i have my picanto with me?

    And 2nd, some of my friends advice me to buy Getz instead. i have seen one and i'm impressed with the compartment. it's more roomy than that of the picanto. I know you guys have opted for picanto than the Getz since you're on this thread. My question is this, what made you choose for picanto than the Getz?

    Hope you can give me sound advice for these.

    Thanks

    Thanks. what pa check ko? yung tumutunog? I will then, salamat. kaso i haven't received warranty card yet e. kaya bad trip pa. baka kunin ko sa Lunes.

    *Atlas
    you might miss the space. pero very responsive ang picanto, ewan ko lang ang getz.

    *All
    any E10 users? i read sa manual pwede e. gusto ko lang masure kung pwede. alam mo na, baka naman mali lang ang manual.

    [SIZE=2]To sir atlas
    Personally i dont own any of these two cars, but it i were you and i have the money then i wont sell my old civic. Your ek civic is a very good reliable car especially if its well maintained, plus with its low resale value, i think its best you just keep the car for its sentimental value.
    Regarding the getz or the picanto. Either of the two cars is good, cheap and quite reliable. But if its me i won't buy either, no offense to picanto owners. But if i were to pick one then thats the time i would have to decide, but for now i will choose the aygo!!!

    Thanks, Sir Samira.

    Honestly, my first option is to keep my civic. until someone told me that i should sell it already since it's an 11-year old car. Mine has an automatic transmission and he said it's not advisable to keep an a/t car for 10 years. What's your personal take on this?

    Second, my friends told me that at P240K,it's a great deal. since the price of 1997 lxi varies from 190 to 240K now a days.

    My civic still runs smoothly. i have no problem with the engine although the extrerior and the interior need a make over.
