I had been monitoring that behaviour of nitrogen since 06 mula ng naglow profile tires ako, nagkabit nako tire pressure monitors, even sa pinakamatagal na bihaye ko, maximum lang of 1.5psi ang lamang ng nitrogen in change in pressure compared sa ordinary. Lets say before biyahe, ordinary and nitrogen pressures both 30, after long drives of 5-6 hours ordinary 34psi and nitrogen 32.5psi, so para sabihin mo na malaking malaki ang diprensya, i dont believe that. If its free sa mga shops as okay lang, pero kung pricey, ordinary air ka na lang
    Actually, nung nag palit ako ng 20s sa montero napansin ko na medyo gumaangan yung steering niya nung nag pa-nitrogen ako. Not sure if talagang gumaang or psychological lang yun. Yung ride stayed the same. Although I seldom do long drives for me to notice yung difference... Long traffic everyday.

    Well will monitor yung impovement nung ride since I checked the tire pressures this evening. Medyo matigas nga yung harap at likod. Hopefully maging ok na siya. I'll use it tomorrow part masigurado ko na yun lang talaga yung problem.

    Thanks!

    For tire Nitrogen believers, here's the fact;
    The air we use everyday composed of, 78% Nitrogen, 21% Oxygen & 1% other gases.

    The claim of Nitrogen for tire is not 100%, unless you are totally in a vacum from production to inflating into the car tire.

    Roughly, you just buy 15% Nitrogen for almost 400Pesos for 4tires.

    Finally, the benefits are????

    And you become reluctant not to check your tire regularly, later to find out your tire is 10Psi lower because of puncture...

    The benefits? from what i understand and read, lesser or totally no moisture due to the added nitrogen, thus oxygen is minimal to negligible.

    Still no real benefits!
    Less to zero O2 = less to no oxidation, for tire, for mags?
    Youre trying to protect the inside, how about the outside of the tire & mags?

    Less to zero O2 = almost stable pressure, for what?
    Under full load, long drives, short drives, with off road driving, city drives. These all need to adjust tire pressure accordingly if youre really concern with your tires.

    Using a Nitro unless you are a car racer or a jumbo jet fighter, really no substantial benefits to our car.

    Kaya advice ko nga sa mga tsikoteers na if free lang siya, okay lang, pero para magbayad pa just for that, pang alis guni-guni lang, huwag na lang. Pero kung free, definitely would use that kaysa ordinary air

    Anyways, mukhang ganun nga ata talaga ang ride ng ASX. Nanibago lang ako siguro. About the knocking sounds naman, they told me sa casa that there might be some problem in the multi link suspension at the rear (same daw sa naencounter sa GTA). They did some re-thighening and i-observe ko daw kung mawawala yung tunog. Sana mawala na siya.... Kung hindi pa rin mawala yun mukhang mag stay ako sa 17s hanggang maging ok to...

    Thanks mga Sir!

    walang pinagkaiba ito sa mga engine treatment.

    Update ko lang yung knocking problem na sinabi ko a few pages back... Mukhang hindi related sa suspension! It looks like isa sa mga gulong hindi mahigpit yung lug nuts (well yun yung theory ko). Nag palit kasi ako ng rims and the knocking sound sa likod nawala na. So hopefully yun lang yung problem. But the thought na ganun medyo natakot din ako since never don't usually check the lug nuts ng gulong. Baka bigla na lang yun tumalsik pag mabilis takbo ko. Anyways, happy ASX owner na ko.

    Ok Bro, dapat SOP yun sa mga gulong. Either palit ng rim, vulcanize, PMS... Basta binaklas ang gulong ay dapat counter check yung higpit ng mga nuts. Mas ok kung may tourque wrench.

    Mostly maka-experience ka talaga ng shortcomings ng mga mechaniko kaya dapat aware tayo sa mga kilos nila.

    Agree.

    Pero yun lang, nilabas ng CASA sa kin yung unit na may knocking sound na and I never checked if mahigit yung mga lug nuts. And I don't think na binaklas din nila yung mga gulong nung nag 1000 PMS ako. So its been loose from the very start siguro.

    Possible Bro, kaya dapat ingat tayo.

    Experience ko rin yan nung 10k PMS ko, nung inalis yung gulong para linisin ang break e pag uwi check ko mga nuts. ayun, dalawa ang maluwag!

    Yup, I fold my side mirrors every now and then when I need additional clearance around the car. Takes a bit of effort to start it to fold.
