congrats bro. i already added you to the owner's list

enjoy your new 7. try the manual shifting and you will definitely feel the sportiness. i used this on a trip from la union to manila and overtaking was a breeze along the tight roads in pangasinan and tarlac

Yup. MAla''s quote for that service is around 52k. Warranty will not be voided and you get to keep your old HU.

labor cost is around 26k for the installation of those LCD's not bought from the them. same terms apply with the HU and the warranty.

December 2009 Black Cx-7 owner here.

Is it true beige on black na ba interior ng 2011 CX-7?

Pati nag-increase na price ng 7 to 1.525m?

Also, nasisikipan ba kayo sa interior ng cx-7?

Lastly, nagfafade na din ba ung black leather at yung black plastic ng interior ng cx-7 niyo?

welcome welcome welcome

i added your name to the list of 7 owners already

so far, my black leather and plastics are holding out well. no visible fading yet although in due time i do expect to see the usual wear and tear

Yes.. i asked them. 52k is hi-way robbery especially so since the lcd they will install is an AVT. i read in the manual of JVC lcd screens that there is actually an adapter that can be connected to the main line of the steering wheel controls that enables it to work with any brand of LCD...

but thanks....

Where is the place to get HID headlights....

Hi I am new zoom zoom CX7 owner, just got my unit yesterday. A white one(sorry po alam ko madami na naka-white but I can't resist the call of beauty). Sana po welcome ako dito

**grin_archer03** · February 26th, 2011 07:26 AM

yup 1.525M na po yung price(30k increase only for the chrome door handles?) but dealers are offering naman big cash discounts ngayon. Sa red lang daw yung beige interior, black on black pa din sir.

i don't think that the driver's seat power settings are programmable, i.e. can be stored in memory. its just power, that is it unless i am missing something

Thanks 111prez.

Ano pong gas ginagamit nyo? I'm loading shell vpower getting on the average 17L/100km or 5.88Km/L (parang mababa eh sa average traffic). Although ang recommended ng Mazda GH is only unleaded mas prefer ko gastusan zoom zoom. Mas okay kaya petron blaze sa cx7?

**caveman12345** · March 3rd, 2011 04:07 AM

may regular eb ba ang cx7 owners?

i am using petron xtra unleaded. at an average speed of 13 to 14km/h, that is roughly my FC also

talo talaga pag crawling traffic. but if the average speed goes up to at least 20km/h, FC is much much better

Hi, my car is due for 12 mos. checkup. How much did you pay for the service and what needs to be done? I have inquired 3 casas for the price which ranges from 7k to 12k, and Mazda GH offers the highest fee * P12K. Is this a reasonable price? I was given the choice between fully synthetic oil and semi synthetic oil, which costs less by P1k. Thanks in advance!

i am due for a check up this may 2011 and will find out then how much it will cost me. but for my past 2 PMS (1K and 5K or the last was at the 6th month because of the whichever is earlier condition), i did not pay anything

Hi, prez111. I am curious if you followed the 12 mos. / 20,000Km whichever comes first maintenance schedule. So the checkup you will have in May 2011 will be your 18th month maintenance sched, is that correct? And that you didnt pay anything for your 12th month maintenance? Got my unit in February last year and they quote me 12k for the 12th month service.

i am following the scheduled maintenance (i.e. the whichever is earlier, grrr) although my odometer reading is still 5,400km (low but true since i only drive around the makati CBD 98% of the time). i got my unit last november 2009
