At this point when you switch-on the aircon, the engine will spark advance more (anticipating a higher load), which will rev up the engine more with more noise, plus that a cold engine runs rougher than an a fully warmed engine.
And of course we have 3 cylinder engine, but it is the same cycle with a 4 cylinder engine but lesser with those equipped with variable displacement AC compressor.
But if you have a pathological engine noise as if it will die anytime, then you may have pumped a contaminated fuel or you have clogged injectors due to hot soaks for short trip driving. A cure for clogged injectors and dirty combustion chamber is to do italian tune-up, it will also wash the other internals of your engine. Milder version ng Italian tune-up lang po, hindi Ferrari ang kotse natin.Last edited by youngrider; August 23rd, 2014 at 11:43 AM.

In an italian tune-up, you're working the engine hard, getting everything nice and toasty, which helps burn off deposits.
Also, the valves (on port injection engines) are sprayed by the injectors... working the injectors at a higher duty cycle, spraying more gasoline (which is a solvent that cleans off gunk) at higher velocities at the back of the intake valves... which are working hotter... cleans off the valves... which can get carbon build-up due to the exhaust-gas recirculation system (which basically pumps exhaust back into the intake of the engine to cool the engine down).
A good Italian tune-up can do wonders for a car.

Wigo wins in brand reliability, but not really fuel efficient especially in city traffic. It relies solely on its light weight for "good" economy (it's a dohc, but no vvti; classic 4 a/t), which isn't really helpful in heavy traffic situations.
Mirage wins in economy and overall package. Good modern technology to help with economy and performance (e.g. cvt, mivec). People I know who bought mirages seem to be satisfied with their units.
Celerio, not really familiar with this, other than I'm 5"10' and it was quite difficult to go in and out of that car haha
I'd go for Mirage. I'd prefer the G4 though over the hatch for the trunk space (without sacrificing the rear passenger space)
