Attention INVECS users!!!

[balugz24]

Relax lang kau hehehe.. Well share ko lang..Yesterday galing ako sa friend ko, napadaan kame sa friend nya na may buy and sell ng mga kotse.Tamang tamang gamet namen yung auto ko na MX 2000. Sinubukan ko lang ialok kung magkano kuha nila sa MX ko. Sabi nung buy and sell mataas na sa 200k, nashock ako kasi kuha ko sa mx ko is 260k loaded na. Ang sabi nung buy and sell di sila kumukuha ng ganitong unit kc mahirap daw ibenta and mas nashock ako nung sinabi nya na pag ang INVECS daw ay nagkaproblema or masira yung tranny sobrang mahal daw magpaayos kesa sa ordinaryong matic tranny.Suggest pa nya habang ok pa yung mx ko ibenta ko na daw ng maaga kesa sa kin pa abutan,Next time daw its either honda, toyota o kya at least glxi ang kukunin ko khit 96-99 model.Kaya nga pala matic gusto ko para at least madrive ng wife ko kahit di ako available.As of now pinost ko na sa internet yung mx ko for sale na mukhang may point yung owner ng buy and sell..Kahit mabawi ko lang yung pinambili ko sa mx ko ok na skin. Ano sa tingin nyo mga paps tama ba yung buy and sell owner or maintain ko na lang and alagaan ko na lang ng mabuti? :

bakit mo ba ibebenta, nag-papakita na ba ng sakit yung MX mo?

pero tama yung buy and sell, kasi kapag nasira yung tranny ng MX mo, mahal talaga ang pagawa nyan or worse replacement. ayan ang mahirap sa A/T hehehe, convenient sa traffic, headache sa maintenance.

Tranny issues are with Honda Jazz and City CVT edition. It might be because lots of Jazz and City are having problems w/ CVT, kaya na lump si Mitsu with them, since its CVT.

I have a 2003 MX CVT. At 80k kms, no problems whatsoever with the transmission. For the transmission, just go to Casa for Change transmission oil every 40k kms, since special oil sya. Don't put any other oil in, or else, dead CVT. For the rest of the engine, regular oils would suffice.

FYI: Dead CVT = can't be repaired, you'd have to buy a new one. Costs 200k I think. So take care of the oil you put in there.

If I were you, just keep the car, take care of the transmission, ok ka na. I don't think the tranny would go bad on you as long as you take care of the oil.

woah..confuse pa din..hehehe.tnx sa mga advice nyo.pero kung may buyer ibenta ko na at least tubo ng konti..pero ask ko na din mga paps kung mas ok yung ordinaryong matic kesa sa Invecs? Actually wla din nman kwenta yang INVECS na yan di ko din nman nagagamet, maganda lng pakingan pagna sales talk.

The 2000 MX isn't CVT yet.

The old INVECS ATs really are more expensive to maintain than similar 1.6 ATs of the time. That model has no fewer than three separate computer boxes, and the transmission itself costs a lot to replace.

to the TS:
MX 1999 up to the MX 2002 pizza body model uses INVECS-II sportsmode 4speed A/T tranny. 1996-1998 pizza's use the conventional 4speed A/T. 2003-2008 Cedia Lancers use Invecs-III (CVT).

1999-2000 MX - Non-extended bumper same as 1996-1998.
2000-2002 MX - extended bumper, quad headlights

The same Invecs-II technology is being used by newer Mitsu Products that are not installed with Invecs-III (CVT). If this technology has many flaws, I doubt if Mitsubishi would still use it on its new vehicles. Check the New Montero Sports and Pajero SE. AFAIK, both of these new rides use 4speed Invecs-II and NOT Invecs-III (CVT).

The key to maintaining the A/T's long life is proper maintenance of the ATF. I drive a MX 2001 model same body as yours and its already logged 130K, so far no issues whatsover with its Invecs-II tranny.

I think the BnS guy is just underestimating the real value of the car which is typical for them when they acquire cars for resale anyway. MX 2000-2002 (extended bumper) models still resale for about 240-280K in the market when I last checked this week.

The only difference between the one on the pizza with the latest Invecs-II releases it that they made it gate-type already but still retained the 4speed A/T sportsmode.

+1. Syempre hindi nila ito bibilhin for the right price. Paano pa ang tubo nila. Come on, it's a Lancer after all hehehe.

I will always choose a Lancer instead of an Altis or a Civic.

Kung may magandang offer sa iyo na tutubo ka ng maganda ibenta mo na .At kung ang dahilan lang iyan automatic Transmission mo para maging mababa value ng sasakyan mo huwag mo na lang ibenta. Alam mo kahit hindi invecs tranny mo kung hindi naman alaga sa change oil at barumbado kung gumamit ng transmission hindi talaga tatagal.

*TS
baka may na encounter si buy n sell na 2000MX dati na nahirapan sya ibenta kasi di nya alam may diperensya na ung transmission, tapos binalikan sya nung nakabili, opinyon ko lamang eto

sinabi nya ba na sya na lang bibili nung auto?

i drive a similar car, wala naman problema, basta alaga lang nung gumagamit
