Ganon talaga bro, pag traffic and "waiting" talagang yari ang FC mo kahit gaano pa ka-efficient ang engine mo. Anyway, mag-improve pa yan, ako before ay averaging 9 km/l sa city driving, but now napansin ko ay nasa 10 kpl nako at around 2,500 km odo reading. Di bale, mura na ang gas ngayon, hehehe.....sarap mag-full tank mamaya.

Nakakainis lang may konting lubog/dent sa right door ko, mukhang nadale sa parking ng ever commonwealth, kainis...... ayoko na lang isipin at baka masira pa ang mood ko ngayong bakasyon.

SHARING IS CARING.....

Kung ding lang yan eh pa PDR (Paintless Dent Repair) mo na lang. Maganda dito sa may bandang AUTOCAMP, Ortigas area sa gilid ng Meralco. Hanapin mo si Rovic, magaling yan sa PDR.

anong pang-punas mo sa GL mo? best to use microfiber over chamois or pranela. yung swirl marks baka pwede pa mahabol kay big berts. consult mo sila.

You can find the info you need in your owners manual. Some of the stuff that I remember about break in procedure is:

1. avoid rapid acceleration
2. avoid rapid stops
3. don't stay in a specific speed for prolonged periods of time.
4. keep your speed under 100 kph.
5. Avoid racing your engine.

Just take it easy on the engine during the break in period and you'll do just fine. I believe there are certain limits on warranties regarding engine breakage during the warranty period. If by chance a problem occurs during the warranty period, you'll be confident that its not caused by mishandling of the engine during the break in period.

Now for the swirl marks, its a case of dust and abrasive particles scratching the clear coat when you clean the car. When you wash the car, make sure you use lots of water and car soap so the impurities will not scratch the paint job. You should also wash the car in a shade or under a roof and never outside where it is subjected to the elements. These tips are also specified in the owners manual.

To remove the swirl marks in your GL, you can have it done professionally at Big Bert's for peace of mind. Doing it yourself will be a tiring exercise and could be more expensive if you happen to commit a mistake.

nakalagay dun sa manual dito basta huwag umabot sa 4k rpm, hehe, gamit ko petron extra unleaded, mas ok kaya sa shell?

about dun sa paint protection, magkano kaya aabutin? balak ko din kasi padetail yung carnival...

[johnnydls68]

i meant shell unleaded in my previous post, not petron. yes i prefer shell over petron, i seem to get more mileage from shell particularly from shell q. ave in front of hitop. i think iba-iba din per gas station in terms of pump calibration.

I recommend you use Petron XCS. Better ang FC ng GL ko in my experience when using this fuel and kaunti lang ang diperensiya sa price sa xtra unleaded.

Now sa paint protection system ng Big Berts, mga 5k plus pesos and charge para sa Kia carnival for a complete paint protection and detailing service. Para sa new cars naman, yung paint protection system for the GL will cost only 1200 pesos. I already inquired sa Big Berts sa Ortigas area last week so will bring my GL there next week.

sa akin rin mas mataas FC ko sa petron xcs, then bumalik ako sa unleaded kasi sa nakita ko sa site ng petron ito oh:

may lead substitute ang xcs plus. magkaiba ba ang xcs at xcs plus? kasi sa nakikita ko sa mga petron station xcs lang nakalagay.
