Lipat ka ng agent. Ako kasi, I really have no plans of buying a vehicle this soon, much more a sedan. Ford Ranger pa siguro or yung Ford Everest 2015 pero biglang naisip ni cmdr na pag-aralin ang aming panganay sa pre-school (which is a bit far from our home) so naisip namin na bilhan na lang sya ng kotse nya para di ma-hassle sa pag-travel. Wala kasing school bus service yung school sa area namin. She is the one who chose the car, seconded by the mother. hehe. That was with a diff agent, who said that he can't give the free rearcam.

So, nag-text ulit itong si Shaw agent (who gave us a flyer while we were passing by their booth at a Mall). I replied, sige, I'll think about it, pero a free rearcam might make me decide faster... so he said, he'll ask the manager. Invited us to a "private sale" and we attended just to see what they can offer. So, yun told us the rearcam is good to go.

At that point, di na ako makatanggi because the ball is in my hands. I had to shoot it. The color we wanted is available (actually gusto ko talaga white but white, due to Manila pollution, is prone to yellowing). I had to get the Gray one because it's a good balance between exotic and practical. In bright sunlight, it looks like golden brown. At night, it looks like black. The good thing is, even if it's dirty, it still looks decent.

Is your sylphy a 1.8 variant or 1.6? Correct me if I am wrong, I have read in the manual that the 1.6 uses only 3 liters of oil if with filter and the 1.8 uses 4 liters of oil with filter.

Yes Krazeyrock, mine is 1.8 and they do used 4 liters of synthetic oil.

Anybody here experience a different sound when closing your driver door? during my 1k PMS i told nissan shaw about that sound and they said that, that is one minor problem that they encountered with SYLPHY. Even the fresh pull out from the plant has that problem. I have to bring it back to them since my wife who brought the car during the PMS needs to be on the road before 3pm because of the number coding.

one more thing, my third brake light cover is not fixed, hearing irritating sound during travel. will include that when i bring the car to nissan shaw.

Regarding the Driver's door. Yes. It sounds a bit off to me when I close it. A nitpick maybe but I think it's regarding not being light in the alignment. I expected it to close like a Ford (solid) but I sort of hear a bit of metal like it lacks a bit of insulation for some reason. I will ask about it during my 1k PMS if it doesn't go away. A fit and finish thing maybe. But I recall the showroom units sounding like that as well. If they can adjust it, that would be great.

I'll have to check the third brake light. I did not notice any rattling when I drove it around.

For now, I've drive the car about 160kms and I am already at half tank as per the gauge. I am hoping that the fuel light will switch on when I have consumed 40L so that the FC is acceptable =) I have no schedule to drive it on the highway yet so I can't test it out. T.T

[SELEGNA_35]

Thats it, if you will compare it with the passenger side and other two doors it really sound different. yes it has something about metal sound. before i ended with my sylphy i already rejected two sylphys because of that sound, just like what nissan shaw told me, its kind of quality control thing, no wonder the showroom display sounds the same. Its a good thing i have compared it with the other Black sylphy display that i checked before getting a white sylphy.

Dont accept if ever your Service Advisor tells you that it is normal with the sylphy, because its not, they should do something about it.

With more than 1k on ODO, I am averaging 9-10k/l according to the computer city driving with minimal traffic. We will be going to tagaytay this weekend, lets see what highway driving will give me.

Meron ba discount sa Silphy ngaun? Saka any review from the 1.6 CVT owners out there?

The discounts that any dealer publicly advertises normally relies on you getting in house financing. The discounts are the bait to lure you in with the in house financing.

If you don't have working relationship with any bank, then sometimes, that in house financing would be a bit cheaper.

But the reality is that you can get a better deal if you can a financing rate from the bank and deal with the directly and let them deal with the dealer (Nissan in this case).

As for discounts, there were when I confirmed my order with financing thru my bank just this June. That discount is less 13k from the advertised SRP.

You can always get a quote from Nissan regarding your preferred DP and the term duration and compare that with a bank of your choice.

In house packages the insurance free as well as TPL along with Chattel Mortgage. Thru bank financing, those are all outside the bank and you need to shell out for them.

Just compare and decide.

Regarding the review, I've only driven our unit about 200kms and already gave my initial thoughts in this thread. Just back read 2-3 pages I think. I can't concretely recall if another user has already posted their impression of owning a 1.6CVT along side mine.

Oh yeah, I keep forgetting to ask 1.8 owners. Do your intelligent key Fobs have a real key hidden inside them that you can pull out? In case the intelligent key loses power?

Or were you given a separate key that is not hidden in the key fob?

I always wondered about that. Because if I recall correctly the ASX my uncle has (with the push start/stop system) doesn't have a real key hidden inside the fob.

Just curious

Yes, it's inside. There's a latch you will move and the key will slide out. That's also the first thing I asked, what if the transponder loses power, how on earth am I gonna start the car. Honestly, they didn't know the answer [since I am their (the agent and his team) first Sylphy client]. Both the Sony XAV-63 remote and the transponder use CR2025 (IIRC). I searched on youtube and found an instruction video on how to deal with it. I think the key itself is using a passive RFID as a secondary measure. Since if it loses power, you can start the car by sliding out the key to open the door, and push the start button with the key.

Congratulations!!! we have the same color.

I am just curious with regards to the harshness issue you mentioned Horsepower. Is it possible that the fuel you topped up with was "Stale" or old. Given that our petrol fuels should be 10% bioethanol and that raises the RON rating/augments it to satisfy, could that have causes the harshness because the ethanol already evaported and you ended up having lower RON than advertised?

*SELEGNA_35
I have tried using the sport button but since it is a CVT, I don't know of the benefit for actually accelerating, but I would see benefits in using it as a way to engine break via accessing ala overdrive mode. The shift points doesn't appear to change much or are barely noticeable and I've seen reviews who have said that they don't see any perceivable difference with going with sport mode or regular drive.

Ic ic. I can't remember though pero there are instructions on how to start your car in the manual though if and when you intelleigent key "dies" for battery reasons. I didn't care to read it though but I saw it was showing the key inside in the diagram. So just heads up I guess as a need to know in case of battery failure.
