sir ok na ung presyo. mag handa lang din po kau ng cash para sa repairs. check nyo din po ung gulong kung pare pareho ang upod. ask nyo din kung kelan gnawa ung pag overhaul. nung nagpa overhaul kasi ako ng charade ko hindi muna ako pinag aircon kasi break in pa. hingi din kau copy ng or/cr para mapa verify ninyo

September 19th, 2007 02:20 AM #6In addition, I've read from forums here na malakas daw sa gas etong model na to... true? The car will eventually be used from house to office lang po (max of 3km). And of course, city driving purposes... Am I choosing the right car? Or should I have to wait and look for the one for me? Any recommendation would be highly appreciated. Thank you very much.

September 19th, 2007 09:26 AM #7pag overhaul ang makina, ibig sabihin pinalitan ng bago yung internal parts ng engine. these parts may include but not limited to
piston rings
piston
head gasket and other gaskets
valves
valve seals
then dpende sa kundisyon ng engine block at cylinder head pwede din gawin ang mga ss:
oversize rebore sa engine block kung may tama ang sleeve (???)
refacing ng cylinder head kung ndi na siya flat.
ang advice ko since ndi sabi mo baguhan ka sa kotse, tingnan mo yung makina at check for oil leaks or any kind of fluid leak. try to observe yung floor ng garage kung meron drops of oil.
then always check din yung fluid levels (radiator, oil, brake fluid)
make sure lagi siya sa tamang level. kung mabilis nauubos ang fluids, most like may problem sa kotse.
try visiting www.autozone.com
go to repair guide. meron dun basic maintenance part. yung engine ng kotse mo is 4AF if i am not mistaken
gud luck!

comments from the pictures:
-front and rear alloy wheels, not the same. In the very least, that wheel was damaged badly in a pothole. Possible sign of wheel misalignment.
-the radiator top has been replaced. Check if there are signs of leaks of the "new" radiator top and bottom sections.
-brake fluid reservior looks empty in the picture.
-some electrical lines near the exhaust manifold seems to be taped up. Try to give it some attention.
