Hello there. Congratulations on your purchase. Manual ba or automatic?
Kung maintenance tips din lang, I suggest na huwag mo munang ihataw yung tsikot mo until your 1,000km periodic maintenance service (PMS). Meaning, don't go over 60kph and don't over-rev your engine. Hindi pa kasi naa-adjust ang valves niyan. You may hear about stories na hinahataw naman ng mga taga-planta yung oto bago ipadala sa showroom kaya ok lang isagad. The thing is, they do those things under controlled conditions, kaya pwede silang mag-perform ng adjustments pagkatapos. Once the car reaches your hands at inihataw mo agad sa kalye, ibang usapan na 'yan. Better safe than sorry.
Tapos just follow yung mga scheduled maintenance intervals as recommended by the casa (1,000, then 5,000, then 10,000kms and so on) at least for the duration of your warranty. Um, any DIY maintenance chores you can do, such as coolant replacement, washer replacement, battery top-up will also help prolong the life of your car.
