One question pang Idiot's Guide, hehe... Also, for the benefit of those who don't know:

How do I compute for FC, exactly?

Second question pang Poll naman, How many of you guys intend to or would like to have a bull bar attached to their avanza (as soon as it becomes available)? Any perceived drawbacks? Personally, parang gusto ko palagyan. Sabi naman ng officemate ko, hindi adviseable (not clear why he said so). Medyo concerned lang ako dito, kasi in previous posts napagusapan un collision (kissing) tolerance ng kaha.

For FC : load full tank ng gas (dapat automatic lang at huwag nang itodo) then reset mo yung odometer to "0" . Then sa next full tank mo (same din lang automatic if possible same gas station and pump) ay tingnan mo kung ilang liter ang nadagdag. Then tingnan mo rin yung odometer kung ilang km ang natakbo. FC = ODO Reading/liter na nadagdag.

Mukhang di bagay ang bullbar sa avanza. After waranty expires magpa side cladding (tama ba tawag nun???) na lang siguro ako at yung maliit na rail sa taas same as in Avanza China yata yun. Ganda tingnan, parang solid at SUV ang dating. Pero parang me bullbar din sya (pic below). ok lang din pala. But as OTEP says naalter mo yung sensor ng airbag.

That's the Daihatsu version. I wish they sold those door mouldings here. So that the vehicle will be protected from other car doors while parked.

Yep. I think that's the Daihatsu Xenia (twin model ng avanza). Sabi nga ni wikipedia, Toyota Avanza is also called as the Xenia. Di ba nag merge na ang Daihatsu at Toyota. Sana nga magkaroon na ng moulding.

About bullbars: I read before that it may protect the car but it results to greater injury if you hit a pedestrian. Car bumpers absorbs impact but these metals will surely break human bone. Mas macho nga ang dating kawawa naman pag may nasagasaan tayo.

I just came from Toyota Ortigas for my 1000km PMS and had window visors installed. Here are the prices of Avanza accossories:

Front sunshade = 512.91
Window visor = 3,783.38
Mirror cover w/ lamp = 9,249.85
Instrument pad cover (ivory or gray) = 671.58
Scuff plate = 2,330.89
Center console box = 3,562.36 (ivory); 3,660.14 (gray)
Luggage tray = 1,393.39
Muffler cutter = 888.64

Ganda nga eh. It's somewhat of a concept for China's Avanza as per Paul Tan's website . It's the same with our Avanza but with a different body kit. wala pa siguro available sa atin nyan pero magkakaroon din siguro.

Available na ba lahat yan sa TYT Ortigas? Magpakabit sana kami kahit yung Luggage tray lang.?
