Onboard calculator finally breached 10km/L on mixed driving. Full tank method got 11.9. Odo is just over 1k, and trip meter for the full tank was 386km.

And it'll get even better.[emoji4][emoji106]

km/li figures might be good this week. but they will probably get worse next week, when the daily horrendous MM traffic comes back.
high...

sana kumonte sila dahil tumaas na ang gaso.

Happy 2018 everyone! New year, new mods? [emoji16]

A few questions:
1. Did anyone get a free seat cover from the dealership? If yes, how is it? I've yet to have mine installed (no stocks yet) but im having second thoughts

2. Whats a good LED replacement for the 1.5's halogen lights?

3. Is there a local shop offering axle back for sedans with rear diffuser kit?

For your first question, I'm still waiting for my seat covers and it's been more than a month now. Will just get my own and use the free as back-up.

Go for Philips Xtreme Vision +130 instead. Check if BN3s are like BM3s. H11 for lows, HB3 highs.
MVTuning has rear diffuser & exhaust kit. They're not local but are on eBay.

Always appreciate your recommendations!
Did a quick search on the Philips and saw that the H11 xtreme is just +100%. Is this what you have in your beloved m3s?

100% more should be beyond sufficient.[emoji4]

Try Osram Nightbreaker Unlimited. It's available at Ace Hardware.

https://www.osram.com/am/ecat/NIGHT%...t/ZMP_1080088/

I've been using this for a 1st gen M3 and it's better than the average halogens when it comes to brightness.

There's a downside though for brighter halogens: shorter lifespan.

I came across this FB page which sells LED light bulbs as replacements for standard halogens:

LED Lights Ph - Lighting Store - Antipolo, Rizal | Facebook - 2,47 Photos

I can't personally recommended the store though since I haven't bought their products.

Hmm... Wasn't given seat covers with our unit. Just released last December. 🙁

Thanks for the heads up! I always see Philips vs Osram comparisons online.
How short of a lifespan are we talking about here sir? Curious.

Suggest you ask your SA if they will provide seat covers. My unit arrived last December as well without seat covers but my SA informed me that they will give me one. I was expecting it to be installed during my 1k PMS but they had no stocks parin when I brought my car in last Dec 28.

Thanks sir. Will do.

Regarding changing the lights to LED, will this void the warranty?

I'm finding the stock headlights to be wanting. Would like something brighter but won't blind incoming cars either.

Those are same reasons why I'm thinking of changing the stock halogens... brighter but won't blind other drivers.

From what other forum members shared, voiding the warranty shouldn't be an issue as long as the replacements are plug & play.
