    wew. nakapag-serve na din sa wakas ng unit sa client. gls-cvt blue. next for release, 2 units of glx-cvt.

    medyo konti po ang dating ng unit ngayon. naka-depende pa sa ahente kung medyo masigasig, mapapabilis. hehehe. yung mga umaasa po sa gray, pili na po kayo ng other colors as 2nd option. konti lang po ang delivery ng gray. mabilis naman ang datingan, kaso pa-konti konti at depende pa sa kulay.

    konting pasensya lang po sa paghihintay. hindi po kasalanan ng ahente na medyo matagal bago kayo ma-serve-an ng unit. naka-depende po yan sa dealer(management). lahat po ng ahente gusto palage makapag-release. at wag po sana masyado demanding sa mga additional freebies, barya lang po ang kita ng ahente sa mirage. 3k lang po ang unit comm less 10% tax = 2,700. hehehe.

    good luck na lang po sa iba. sana makuha nyo na mga mirage nyo. :D

    Finally, after a week of waiting from the promised date, i got my white gls cvt.

    Total price i paid was 606,690 pesos. cash

    price is inclusive of unit price, comprehensive insurance and Third Party Liability.

    I did not pay for the LTO since i myself volunteered to do the registration. Papadala na lang sa akin documents and i will choose on the LTO branch i will register the mirage. They will send it to me via LBC in a week's time. I am guessing na makakakuha na ako ng registration sticker na 2013.2014.2015

    i did not avail of the free US Gila tint. Pinaconvert ko na lang ng car care kit. So all in all, i got 2 sets of car care kit. yung isa mitsubishi brand, yung isa microtex.

    nakakuha ako ng free EWD.

    nakakuha ako ng thank you letter from my SA. Thank you Julius. After all of the negotiations with him, all went well.

    the odometer reading is 61km when i got the mirage. nagbliblink na yung digital gasoline meter kaya dumiretso na ako sa caltex and tried gold. Total liters refueled is 28.335 liters * 1,481.64 pesos. Hindi pa nauubos until now.

    I invested on VKOOL sa tint. 5 years warranty. super black. wrap around. my source even told me na para sa akin hindi lang 5 years kungdi 10 years. i paid 5,500 pesos and 100 pesos tip sa installer. Inalis ng installer yung spoiler para maayos yung pagmeasure and cut sa VKOOL tint.


    Some observations.

    1. i noticed that everytime i start my engine from a long rest, the temperature light will turn on and from the start of the engine, siguro naka on yung temperature light for a minute or two then mag off na yung light temp.

    2. Nung napadaan ako sa Mitsubishi commonwealth biglang nag beep yung alarm ng 3 or 4 times.. i do not know if may sensor ang bawat mitsubishi dealer or napatiyempo lang siguro na may interference. naka on yung gps ko. It alarmed 3 times with 3 or 4 beeps. I checked naman the placing of the KEY and sa tabi lang naman sya ng key cradle.

    3. Nung paglabas ko sa casa and had my gas refueled, i made an air check sa mga tires and all tires got arading of 44 psi. buti na lang at pinacheck ko so ang ginawa ko pinababa ko na lang to 32 psi.

    So far...so good...mukhang matipid.....i will post my FC in a day or two on the next full tank refuel.

    Thanks.

    It's saying that the engine is not yet at its optimal working temperature. When the light switches off it means the engine has reached its optimal working temperature level (ok na yung circulation ng engine oil). Pero kung red yung ilaw sa temperature light ibig sabihin nun overheat.

    i see. i think the color of the light temp is yellow. thanks for the info. i got used to the analog temperature monitor from previous cars...

    comment lang po ako regarding sa ibat-ibang reading ng fuel consumption.

    baka kasi ang iba nagtataka bakit si ganun 18km/l nakukuha while ako 14km/l lang eh pareho lang naman kaming light footed driving

    sa mga small displacement engines kasi, total weight of the vehicle is a big factor when it comes to FC

    mas mabigat ang karga, mas nangangailangan ng makina ng power

    so kung si mirage owner A ay tumitimbang sa 85kilos habang ang kapitbahay niya at kaupisina na si mirage owner B naman ay 65kilos lang ang timbang, tyak 101% mas makakakuha ng mas magandang FC si mirage owner B

    kaya kung gusto nyo talaga na tumaas ang FC ng mirage nyo, A.) mag diet kayo hehe B.) lahat ng di kailangan sa loob ng tsikot na nagpapabigat lang ay iwan nyo na sa bahay

    tsaka isa pa pala hehe, si mirage GLX m/t ay may curb weight of 820kilos, habang si mirage GLS cvt naman ang tumtimbang ng 850kilos, so right out of the bat, mas lamang na si glx/mt kasi mas magaan siya.

    Medyo napapansin ko dumadami na yun depensa ng mga owners bakit di umaabot yun FC as per Mitshi advertisement expectation. Ano ba talaga ang lagay ,mga mirage owners ???????? Parang nag dududda na ako kasi sa mga nakikita kong FC test. 21 km per liter ba talaga o gimmick lang??

    Please post all your latest FC now no if and buts , actual on Philippine roads . We get the average then as a whole.

    Maybe , we can post 2 set of FC : City Driving and Hiway Driving

    ^brad there are certain methods applied when the 21km/li was achieved for the fuel-economy test of the mirage

    when the f-15 eagle jet fighter registered its flight records it was flown with NO PAINT, just to keep it as light as possible

    GLX models are lighter than GLS because its been stripped of other features thats why its very important to mention the model, the tranny, passenger load, aircon settings, maximum speed, traffic condition in order to be fair

    another piece of advice i could give based on experience is that if its fuel economy you want to achieve then drive below 60kph in the city & below 80 kph in the highway

    Sabi sa akin ng SA, sa planta nakabreak in na. Nakahang daw yung mga kotse tapos pinapaandar yung gulo pero di nakakabit yung odometer.

    Hello Mirage forumers, bago lang ako join dito. Taga gensan ako and received our mirage glx m/t last Nov. 27. The dealer is Peak Motors Manila Bay. I am very satisfied with their service specially the lady sales executive. Nagpa reserved ako Oct. 31 when our familyI were in Manila at the last working hour of 6pm and paid Php 10k reservation fee. Would like to share my FC experience. Before the trip nag full tank ako, and got a total trip reading of 179km, then nag refuel ako at umabot ng 8.6liters. At an average, I got 20.81 km/l on I can say 95% highway and 5% city drive. My highway driving speed (low of 80 and high of 120) kapag maluwang ang road. Thanks.

    ^Break-in ng walang load kasi nakaangat? Grabe naman I don't think ginagawa nila yun. Critical lang naman sa break-in is hanggang maka 5000km after non ok na. Pero kung mag fully synthethic oil ka better do it on the 10000km or 15000km checkup. Mineral oil lang muna during break-in period. Warm-up mo muna ang engine kahit mga 3 to 4 minutes. Naka idiot temp light ba ang Mirage like vios?

    Eh??? easier for them to unplug the odometer.

    Someone might be pulling your eggs...

    Please correct me if i'm wrong...pag nakabitin ang sasakyan (tires not touching the ground) and walang differential lock yung differential...that would mean one tire would spin opposite the other one. ex. front wheel drive, front right tire may spin forward while the left front tire will spin backward. I agree, i don't think gagawin nila yun...hehe...doesn't make sense to me...although i'm not a car expert din naman...haha...

    Break in no longer applies to today's cars. Here's what I do:

    1. Drive as you would normally do.
    2. Do not over rev the engine, ie. 5,000 rpm and higher
    3. Follow the PMS schedule and scope.

    Not really an expert but you'd be pretty safe with this.

    What the SA may have been saying about the break in in the plant, where the wheels are running, would be at the wheel alignment test. But the odometer is already attached in this case. The car also undergoes several tests where it needs to run, like suspension checks etc. At regular intervals, a car is selected for a road test where it goes a longer distance than the regular test. That's why sometimes a new car has a higher km reading out of the casa, say ~50 kms from the normal ~10+kms.

    Yung temp light kapalit ng temp gauge. Imbes na nakikita mong tumataas yung temp, ilaw na lang makikita mo, pag pula na overheat ka na.
