2010 Mitsubishi Strada [continued 2]

[mjlu]

yung sa min dec 23 naman.. well.. hintay hintay na lang muna hehe..

Talagang ganun sir. Sa amin 2 months na rin wala pa rin. Sabi ng SA sa akin, depende daw sa kung ano yung pinaprocess nila for that particular time. Meron daw kasi certain allotment sila for the plates depending on the ending. Kung maubos na yung number na gusto mo, hintay ka daw for the next batch na. Pero kung wala ka request madali lang daw.

Sir just make sure updated yung naka anti date na papers mo para kahit hulihin ka meron ka papers na mapakita. Usually weekly yan pinapalitan. And of course hwag po ipakita lahat, kung ano lang yung for the week yun lang pakita mo. Heard of a case kasi na lahat daw pinakita sa pulis kaya huli rin siya. he he he

Di kaya loose or disconnected hosing? May nangyari na yata sa isang BOSB before...

Update ko lang kayo guys... kaya hindi umaarangkada Strada ko beyond 1k RPM, kasi nag reregister ng error code na masyado mataas pressure sa common rail. Protection mechanism siya para hindi masira makina.

Nung nireset ang error code, lalabas ulit. Chineck naman ng casa ung pressure ok naman, pati mga sensors ok naman. Kaya nung kinalas balik nila wirings, nag ok na. Baka nagalaw or lumuwag lang daw somewhere.

[locoroco777]

yup possible yang naging situation mo parang nag fail safe mode yung engine....

its good to hear na ok na....

[dadz]

some times talaga it happen just regular check lang nag mga plugs minsan kasi me na bubunot kasi malakas ang shake sa engine bay natin.........................

In short, they didn't know what was wrong and if problem occurs again, they'll do another guessing game.

hi guys,

for the past 3 months I have observed that my ride has developed the preference for shell diesel. each time I gas up with a differrent brand (caltex and petron) my engine would suffer from hiccups namamatay engine pag binirit and the check engine light comes on. any of you guys experiencing this? TIA

[locoroco777]

baka mas mod friendly yung krudo ng shell? hehe

Regular naman maintenance ko sa kasa

This looks like the case... I just hope it won't re-occur

What things do I need to know when buying a Strada (Particularly GLS Sport)? Yung insurance offered by the dealer (quoted at around 35k) is obviously comprehensive naman na diba? Ganun ba talaga price nun?

What do I need to check when it's delivered, ano usually ang free, discount etc?

Accessory baka window visor lang kunin ko then yung tint pwede ba special request like BC35 sa front windshield tapos something else sa sides and back?

Thanks guys!

Shop around for insurance so you will have piece of mind regarding the cost. If financing ang car, dapat comprehensive with aog.

Ang free ay tints, matting, seat cover. Haggle for free LTO registration. Regarding tints, you can specify as long as they have that tint. Sa lahat ng cars ko, all have been 3m with full windshield, free yun sir. Nasa haggling powers lang. Shop around at different dealers.

When receiving your vehicle, meron sila checklist. Check mo rin condition ng ride, fit and finish, stance, etc.

Then enjoy your new ride.

After getting the vehicle, may I advise you to consider the Optiguard Car Paint Protection ng BigBerts (I'm not connected) or similar as based on experience, the paint finish of Strada is not so good. Parang ang daling ma chip off (tama ba term ko??).

Best kung mapagawa mo mas maaga habang wala pang damage ang paint...

Sharing lang sir.

[jim]

hmmmmn madali mag-chip ang paint ng Strada??? sa akin ok naman di naman sya parang madali masira (crossed-fingers). kelangan lang talaga todo alaga. bili ng high quality micro fiber cloth at high quality wax and sealer.

as for the plates I got them after a month. 1 ang ending per request ko . nasabihan din ako na may bayad dapat na 800 pesos pero di na ako siningil. libre na raw

as for freebies tint, matting (which I replaced immediately kasi di ko type) at 3 year LTO registration plus compre insurace with AOG and towing service under Pioneer Insurance. the free seat covers I did not get kasi masasayang lang. I ordered my seat covers from seatmate.

Thanks. Balak ko kasi BC35 on the front and maybe BC10 on the others. Btw yung tint sa luob kinakabit diba? Yung defogger parati bang malaki ang chance masira in case papalitan ang tint sa likod? Kasi balak ko di nalang palagyan sa likod.

If I choose not to have the tint attached, bibigay nila sa akin naka-roll?

Thanks for the info. Pwede ba pagusapan dito? If not paki-PM nalang, cost would be P6,500 or P7,500 plus magkano yung maintenance sessions?

Free yung compre insurance w/ AGO and towing mo?! You must have great haggling skills.

[blued888]

Forgot to ask something, may storage bin ba underneath the 2nd row seats ang Strada? (Hilux kasi meron)

[av8or5]

underneath wala, but back of it meron..but small area lang, if gls and above, nandoon naka store yung jack, tools and window motor.

Forget the casa installed tints. They're of poor quality kahit 3M pa yan. Take it from me. 2 years after, I changed my tints. MAINIT!

Best is NOT to install anything and ikaw pumili ng tint na gusto mo. suggest a full windshield than a visor only.

The freebies you have to haggle it before they deliver the unit. The best is rain gutter, very useful sa panahon natin.

The rest you can forget like car seat covers, floor mats, etc. VERY CHEAPLY made. Again, nagpatahi at bumili ako ng floor mats.

What does that look like?

And you changed tints? Di ba nasira yung defogger sa likod when they removed the tint? I remember from our previous car that the defogger gets ruined upon tint removal.

As long as they are carefull when removing tints for the rear glass, then the defogger wont get damaged.

My tints, which are free are still doing good.so it depends on the installer. 3m is a good brand, not expensive, not cheap. good quality.

below is the pic of the window visor also known as window rainvisor, etc. It's the black thing above the window.

I left the tints sa defogger as is. I prefer the lightest tint sa likod, very useful when you're backing. The rest pinatanggal ko- visor and sides.

So take note sa defogger. Malaki ang chance if you remove the tint, sira yan. So be firm sa decision sa tint sa likod. I choose the lightest.

Sa windshield I picked neutral. Tama lang sa gabi. Sa sides super black. Mas malamig na at hindi na hirap ang aircon pag mainit. The good thing about GLS units is that you have auto climate aircon, mahirap lang pag na-sense na mainit ang loob, buga ng buga para lumamig.

Pawisin kasi ako and the commander wants cryogenic like aircon.

Thanks, so window visor = rain gutter pala.

Yung pagtanggal ng tint sa may defogger alam ko malaki talaga ang chance masira, we had a vehicle before na pinalitan ng tint tapos there were certain lines that weren't working anymore so I'm thinking whether or not I should even put tint on it.
