91 is the minimum required, considering what is available in the market (ethanol mix) & the scruples of other entrepreneurs (selling below rated gasoline)
We are better off with octane rating higher than the minimum recommended.
A 95 octane dissipated value could be pegged at 92 octane which still meets the minimum requirement while a 91 dissipating at 88 is below minimum required

July 22nd, 2014 09:41 PM #5482hi guys
I am gonna inspect this coming a weekend a repo Mirage GLX CVT model. There is limited info on the net like it has clocked in a 19km already so I need to check it onsite. What are the things to check?

July 23rd, 2014 10:15 AM #5483Hi! Is it normal na medyo maingay ang engine ng glx cvt model? Is it because of the cvt transmission? I find it noisier compared to other gas fed cars even to old models.

Three cylinder engine. Naturally noisier than a four-cylinder due to the warbling idle.
Also, the Mirage has no muffler, just a mid-pipe resonator.

Three cylinder engine... naturally noisier than a four-cylinder at idle.
Also, the Mirage, to save weight, has no muffler. Just a mid-pipe resonator.
Good luck explaining that to the LTO.

Nicky, might be part of cost cutting of the manufacturer? Kaya pala malakas vibration ng tail pipe.

August 8th, 2014 01:02 AM #5488My son plans to replace his late model suzuki Grand Vitara with
a more fuel efficient car. He is looking at an AT Wigo, celerio, or
mirage. May I ask if Mitsubishi has come out with an official statement
regarding the CVT starter problem. Has the problem been solve?
Or chambahan nalang kung matapat sa iyo. The Mirage CVT based on
a lot of readings seems to be the most fuel efficient among the 3.
Many thanks.
The 3 most important aspects are:
1. Must be automatic
2. Must be very fuel efficient in the City
3. Cost of ownership is low.
Thank you.

Some mentioned their unit were scheduled for parts replacement but I didn't followed suit..my mirage glx-cvt recently reached 10000 km and all the problems I shared before went away

Nope. Weight cutting. There's a reason the Mirage is only around 800 kilograms. They simply didn't put in things they didn't need, like an engine under-brace, extra engine mounts (Just two mounts. The third support is a torque bar connected to the front suspension subframe), a steel assembly in front of the engine (chassis ends at the wheel wells. Everything ahead of the engine is plastic) and etcetera.
Given that... the Mirage is still a five star car on the NCAP (when equipped with stability control), which means that Mitsubishi spent good money on making the frame very rigid.Last edited by niky; August 8th, 2014 at 08:46 AM.
