Last November 1 na stucked yung gear ko and can't move or shift in any from 1st to 5th gear and revise.masyadong matigas.i tried yo turn off the engine and tried Kung ganun din pag patay makina and it was working.again tried to start the engine...talagang ayaw mag shift sa kahit anong gear.turn off the engine again put the gear sa first and started the engine.kumadyot sya and tried to put to neutral kaso ayaw na din ang togas talaga.ending pinalo ng Malakas para bumalik sa neutral and started the engine again.it worked already!before that Mahabad by ahem ko Mga 2 hrs matraffic and park the car naka incline.i don't know what went wrong and what caused the problem.help!

There is no dumb question if it was an honest one ;)..

Yes sir, it is a must. Air has no place on our fuel system..

if there is air or water presence sa filter casing, you have to bleed it out. now kung magpapalit ka na, after ma-install ng technician o mechanic yung filter, may knob sa ibabaw ng fuel filter casing at pina-pump nila yun para i-priming yung fuel filter bago nila ikabit yung fuel line.

There is a grinding sound in the engine on start up up especially when not used for a day or more. Sounds like a bearing that is linked to the pulley system.

Ok na uli pero the episode kept repeating itself 4x. Pansin ko it happens after a long stop (idle), but not when I had a continuous drive.

Anybody naka-experience na rin nito? Was contemplating on a transmission flush kasi baka sa tranny ang problema. Baka madumi na. 38k na mileage ko and no AT drain and fill yet. But then again yung fuel filter light umilaw e. Di ba umiilaw lang yun kung me tubig sa fuel mo?

Tranny slip o bad fuel? What's the solution for this?

nangyari na sakin yan lost of power sa auto mode pero pg gamit ko manual ok naman .nag cel pero di naman umilaw fuel filter indicator. scan ko yung cel is a/t timeout ang lumabas nawala rin siya after a while.

one of the pulleys ay may kalawang or dumi, kapag lumabas ang ingay after mag engage ang aircon compressor, malamang aircon pulley yung madumi.pa check mo din belts.

Thanks. It was right after starting. On idle, a/c off. I was thinking of spraying wd 40 but hesitated because it might cause bad rather than good.

Try to isolate the problem loosen a/c belt and run the engine at idle if you cant here grinding noise or squeeks.you may have a bad bearing pulley.
