Guys,
normal lang ba sa umaga pag andar
maingay ung makina?then medyo nawawala ingay
after almost 1minute.
parang masyado maingay ung makina
compared to my other car
3day old pa lang ung mazda3 ko
meron na agad scratches
Anyone here na nagpapaint protection sa bigberts
Or any other shops?any advise or comment?
thanks po...

Yup normal lang yan sir. Yan ang isa sa mga characteristics ng Skyactiv engine para mabilis na ma-reach ang optimal operating temperature

Yes, kasya siya bro. Our Mz3 can go as far as 19s with 235/35. Offset needed nga lang is between +45 to +50 para walang rubbing issues even if you decide to lower your car.

- suspension breakage depends on your driving habit and depends on how you use your car. Of course, mas prone siya if lagi ka overloaded.

-1.5 din sakin, got the stock 18s of the 2.0. Using 225/45 bridgestone turanza. For me mas nagimprove handling kase mas malapad yung tires. As expected, dumagdag ng konti ang fuel consumption since bigger rims and higher weights, unlike the 2.0 na mas malakas power.

without, open lang un parking area

Had this problem as well before getting mine. Also was choosing between the black and aluminum metallic. Maganda nga ang black but just like others said, di mo masyado makita ang nice angles/beautiful lines niya. This is true as I've seen black many times na. So for me, go for the white.

magkano niyo po pala nakuha ung OEM stock ng 18s? At the moment kasi may oem mags (18s) ako from a Lancer GTA (fresh na fresh pa), balak ko eh un nalang ikabit ko as upgrade at palitan ang centercap at lagyan ng 225/45 na tires.. straight euro-look kumbaga,, ano sa tingin nyo sir?

hmm tama nga kayo dyan sir, natatakot lang ako kasi un order ko na black parating na at un ung sure slot ko, bukas ko pa malalaman sa SA kung may extra pa ba dadating na white na walang naka reserve.

Guys un white ba hindi kaya mag yellowish in years?

[testament11]

Guys un white ba hindi kaya mag yellowish in years?

I think no. Besides, hindi talaga white yun color kundi pearl white. So hindi siya pure white. Tsaka kelangan lang, alaga lang sa detailing yun sasakyan.

[Walter]

The plastic areas, i.e., bumpers, painted white will turn slightly yellowish when exposed to sunlight often. And they won't fade in the same shade as the metal areas.

thanks po...

sobrang sulit imo yung paint protect program ng big berts, especially yung 4th session na full detailing
i think the car looks even better than brand new after the session

yung maingay na engine during start up is perfectly normal.. even with older generations

Sir Geo,

Mga ilang km/l ang masasacrifice pag nagpalit ng pang 2.0 rims ang 1.5 Mz3?

Magkano ang total cost sir and any branch down south ng big berts?

Sir Geo,

Bro,

Honestly, few kilometers lang tinakbo ng 16" OEM rims ko, give or take na off siya ng 0.5 to 1km/l against the 2.0 rims. Di ganon kalaki at di rin ganon ka accurate kase less mileage lang nagamit sa 1.5 but of course, nakaka affect talaga ang higher weight. Isa pang factor e slightly off siya sa speedometer since mas malaki ng onti in terms of total diameter ng rims.

One thing for sure, mas mag iimprove handling since wider tires kahit na masacrifice ng onti ang gas consumption. And of course, mas maganda sa paningin ang 18s compared to 16s. Hehe.

IMO, panget.

Lancer rims should stay on Lancers. I don't agree with using one car's stock rims on a different car. Sometimes interchanging between cars of the same brand are okay (i.e. Sonata rims on an Elantra), but usually they aren't. But if it's a different brand on a car (like Impreza rims on an Altis, or in your case Lancer rims on a Mz3), it really looks off for me.

Pero ikaw, if you think it looks good, then go. But to any discerning car enthusiast, you'll always be that guy who put Lancer rims on his Mz3.

[aRTie]

Magkano ang total cost sir and any branch down south ng big berts?

5.5k on the first year. That's 3 maintenance and 1 full detailing session done quarterly. Less 20% on the next year if you renew your subscription

Meron silang branch sa sucat near SM BF and another one inside BF Pque

Sorry sa OT
