Hi mga bro! I was just randomly backreading and I saw this post by sir dadz regarding a solution to fix the squeaking leaf springs...

Bro GO1 the silencer kit is standard talaga sa leaf springs, and yung binuka nila na "c" braket is use to keep your leaf's in place hindi dapat yan binuka. to keep your leaf silence the only thing to do is put a pacer between the leaf if you will observe your leaf meron siyang spacer na bilog 1 sa front and 2 sa rear, but look at it the 2 last leaf is walang spacer pag sinigitan yan nag spacer tatahimik yan. i dont know what the service is doing it is a standard way to silence your leaf springs. mapapakita ko sana kaso hindi ko alam kung pano mag post nag picture if some can tell me mapapakita ko sayo.

Thanks sir dadz!

Mga Sirs...i recently brought my Strada to the local Mitsubishi "kasa" here to have my regular oil change...after the oil change..bcoz of the stupidity of the staff...they scratch my Strada against a post...which caused a small paint chip on the fender flare of my previously still "perfect" Strada...they offered to have the fender flare repainted..free of charge...should i settle for just repaint..considering the scratch is just about the size of a fingernail...or should i insist on a total replacement of the fender flare?...if ever i settle for a repaint...will it really be still be like new?like back to original?or will it never be the same as the original paint?if i insist on total replacement...will it cause more damage?will the replacement fender flare still be as good a fit as the original?what would u guys do if you were in my situation?this is my first car..i took very good care of it...i rarely drive it..now they ruined it...even a small scratch is big in my eyes...please advice!!!Thanks in advance!!!

PS....

nga pala sir...a new member of TSCP is also from Zamboanga which I believe the same as you are....If you want, you might want to coordinate with him and be a member as well....

what i do, if near my house, i turn off the ac and let the fan push all the cold air out, so by the time i turn off my engine, warm air goes out of the vents. that has been my practice for all my cars regardless of manufacturer.

maybe that will help sir.

thankfully wala pa naman smell sir. alaga kasi ni misis sa detailing at bawal kumain sa loob...

Repairs are finished. Sana makuha na kita this week..

O.T. po i noticed that the repainted area is not shiny like the other body panels. Do they still need to put a clear coat on the paint o i-pa buff ko na lang sa detailing? I forgot to ask kasi sa casa and i want to have a 2nd opinion bago ako bumalik dun.

Sa wakas.. nakuha ko na rin unit ko after 1 1/2 months. Kaso may sablay pa na aayusin.. pero maliban sa di napalitan na rear LH reflector at problema sa alignment ng manibela, ok na naman lahat.

Buti na lang mabusisi ako. Kaya payo ko sa mga magpapaayos sa casa, dapat busisiin nyo gawa nila.. bago nyo ilabas unit nyo.

It's nice to be back..

Just wanted to share the results of my experiment...

Previous fuel consumption: 8.0 km/l. Front tire pressure: 30. Rear: 28
New fc: 8.3 km/l. F: 32, R: 30.

*Tested with 1 full tank, same route. Measured manually and thru information display. Although increase in tire pressure resulted in an increase in bounciness, overall comfort level was relatively the same.
