Overheating, etc.

Normal lang ba mabilis uminit or magoverheat ang Galant-rayban kapag pinapatakbo ng above 80? Ngayon ko lang kasi nagamit to eh. meron siyang parang boost pag binibigla mo un accelerator. bilis uminit kahit mga 5secs mo lang tapakan. and kahit d mo iactivate un boost na un basta lumagpas ka ng 80km/h eh nahahalata ko na tumataas un temp reading...

And may way ba para makatipid sa gas using this car? kasi from Lagro to Makati sakto lang ang P300.00 gas.

May leak ng oil sa upper engine (un cover sa ibabaw). Maingay ba talaga ang makina nito?

just need our suggestion guys! thanks in advance!!!

Have it checked the talyer. When you say umiinit, di na ulit bumababa yung temp when you go down with your speed?

Sa gas consumption, try to clear out the problems with the engine first. One way to save on gas. Try mo din yung mga fuel saver sa market, some offer a limited time trial offer with money back guarantee. Malay mo, it works for you.

Sa oil cap, you can have it replaced. Replacements usually costs around 250 while originals at around 600.

Hope this helps a bit.

Overheating is not normal for any car. That being said you should have the oil leak checked if the leak is more than just the oil refill cap. By your description it sounds like the cam cover is where the leak is located. Also have cooling system checked maybe it hasn't been flushed for a long time. As far as gas saving devices don't waste your money on them because none of it works. The best gas saving device is your right foot and not driving the car.
