The CX-7 Owner's Thread

[111prez]

why?

this is what i noticed so far, i've been here on tsikot for about 2-3 months and the hyundai owners are very defensive pag pinag usapan na ang hyundai. pag pinag compare mo ang isang car against a hyundai, hyundai owners suddenly comes in na para bang sinabi mo na the other car is better than the hyundai. lalo na si gen.mitting maganda lang ata sa kanya eh yung santa fe nya, no offense to hyundai owners.

:obvious: nyahahahaha :rofl:

hi guys! i got my black cx7 last december sa mazda makati..super ok exterior at interior nya..parang rx8 ung mukha nya and the interior looks like an airplane cockpit lalo na sa gabi..downside lng na napansin ko is the high fuel consumption..gnawa ko na lahat ng tricks i know para tumipid ung consumption during city driving pero 6km/liter lang tlaga eh! sa long drive nman nag-improve lang ng konte, 6.5km/liter! i've been driving the car from taguig to makati everyday and ganun talaga cnsumption nya..dinala ko na nga din sa mazda makati pra ipa-check ung engine kc they claimed before na 15km/liter dw ung consumption ng cx7 nung pinatest drive nla sa DENR pa kamo..sabi ko nlang baka downhill ung ginawa nilang testdrive..hehe..one more sad thing bout the car is its suspension..its kinda stiff to think na its running on 70series na tires..naghesitate tloy ako na palakihin ung mags ko at i-low profile ung tires ko kc bka lalong maging matagtag..yun lang nman as of now mga probs ko..other than those satisfied nmn ako overall sa cx7 ko and il still choose it over other cars kung papiliin man ako ulet..

yahoooo!!!!!!! another 7 owner

yep, FC is a bit of a concern. i am averaging about 6.5km/l on an average speed of 16-17km/h. monitor mo lang average speed mo. the higher it is, the better will be the fuel consumption

for the ipod adapter, i just used an audio to audio jack. all you need to do is to plug one end to the ear phone input jack of the ipod and the other to the accessory input jack inside the center console. it is enough to have your ipod play on the 7's stereo system although you need to control the songs selection and other functions from the ipod. with the same jack, i can also use a generic cd-r king mp3 player also and play it on the 7s stereo system, hehehehe

as for the all weather mat, i am using a rubber one that is shaped like a bowl. useful for keeping the damp and dirt on the mat

looking for the adapter that will let you control the iPod through the HU controls......parang nakita ko sa thread na ito ill just backread.

Sa mats, Im already in the process of ordering OEM rubber mats in ebay, sakto meron pinupuno si misis ng balikbayan box.

FC seems to be spot on......im also getting between 6-7km/liter...mostly city driving pa.

pansin ko lang, parang di gaano malamig ang aircon. nasanay ba ako sa aircon ng nissan, or sadyang mainit lang talaga.


Overall, im very much happy with the CX7. Considered the 4x2 Montero and the 2.0 Impreza hatch....but Im really glad I got the CX7. Even my dad, who owns a Ukraine edition MOntero Sport, is quite impressed with build quality...and Im seeing him swapping with the crossover on some occasions.

Mahina talaga aircon ng CX7.

Mahina talaga aircon ng CX7.

as akin naman, okay lang. even in the summer heat, i have it at 22 deg but blower at about 3 notches. si kumander ang palaging nag rereklamo na masyadong malamig daw

same here a/c is not a problem with our cx7 even naka park pa sa open ....can't compare it with other car models kasi yun last ride ko tribute wala din akong problema sa a/c.....perhaps it's just me........and 111prez pala....
