Yung natipid mo in PMS can buy you parts, pay for labor for repairs in case nagkaissue ang kotse. Very rare naman catastrophic engine failure

totoo. you can play the numbers

-sa toyota wag ka lang matapatan ng lemon baka mapa warranty mo shock absorbers. sa case namin noon radio nag loloko so pinalitan. i can understand you can save a lot sa labas.

-yung montero namin wala ako napa warranty kaso in hindsight baka pwede pumasok yun aux fan motor at also shock absorber but by the time nalaman ko lapse na 2yrs.

-kapag ford ayoko i risk yun warranty. sa office namin napawarranty yun intake hose at transmission at intercooler leak. may iba pa di ko na lang matandaan.

-yun santa fe. ng nanay ko transmission replacement to the tune of almost half million yikes! buti pumayag i-warranty ng hyundai maski twice sa labas napa change oil.

correct! baka lagpas pa binayaran mo dahil ang dami palusot na add-on na di naman recommended sa manual.

saka alam ko ang 1k hindi nga nila pinapalitan ang oil. not unless you specify and of course pay. para sa akin maski mineral oil mas ok palitan at 1k. malamang lahat ng metal excess sa 1st oil change nakukuha.

I normally follow the dealership's recommended maintenance schedule while the car is under warranty...

After ng warranty, change oil/spark plugs/air filter every 6 months + whatever the manual recommends.

mostly miles/kms ang mentioned sa manual... Philippine city cars needs more than 2 hours to cross 22kms (EDSA)

Just thinking...

For my Honda City...

10K or 6 months...

1.5 hours to reach my office which is 30kms away - est daily use.
2 way - 3 hours, 60kms distance

If there was no traffic and I can drive at 60km/h, my 3 hours per day is actually 180kms/day

*180kms/day - I will reach 10,000 kms in 3.5 months.

(10,000/180/4/4 - 1 day coding, weekend trips were not calculated)

Broken piston 1.5L ecoboost

Detonation or pre-ignition. Treated it like a naturally aspirated engine, boy was I wrong. Makuti ang pag alaga sa mga turbo powered engines pala. No issues with it now though.
