agree ako d2 hehe. dahil sobrang tahimik ng loob pansin mo even the slightest rattle at dahil nga sobrang tahimik annoying ung may rattle coz it stands out.

i actually have similar problems (two rattles). one probably sa may steering wheel /drivers side dash and the other somewhere sa glove box or sa may front passenger door.

i plan to have them fixed next year when the car comes up for its first pms.

fc ko is 8-9 km/l mixed. paranaque to makati with occasional use of the skyway. okay na ba yan or mababa.

also, yung aircon (auto climate), pag na ka auto climate control ba okay lang na di ko sya i off bago ko patayin ang makina. since auto, i assume pag nag set ka ng temperature pabayaan mo na.

tia po.

1. Medyo mababa po yung FC, pero mag-i-improve iyan after 1st PMS. Mag-i-improve pa lalo iyan after 5K PMS. FC ko ngayon (mixed) is 11-12 km/l; kapag wala talagang traffic umaabot sa 13-14; route is Las Pinas-Manila via Coastal Road-Roxas Blvd. Okay na rin considering na napaka-unpredictable ang traffic sa ruta ko.

2. Pinapatay ko usually yung auto climate control bago i-off yung makina kasi sabi ng dad ko ganun daw dapat. Ewan ko kung makakabuti ba iyon talaga pero nakasanayan ko na rin.

I would suggest na i-turn off nyo na lang sir ang ac before turning the engine off, whether manual or auto climate. The reason is that the next time you turn on the engine, the compressor magnetic clutch might already be engaged. And cranking the engine with an engaged compressor clutch might be detrimental to the compressor, especially the bearings. at least in theory.

On your FC, are you driving an automatic or a manual sir? My 1.6G AT had an FC of 7.5 average at first but improved to 8.5 after the 1k PMS. So may pagasa pang mag improve after the 5k PMS.

Automatic yung sa akin. Mag-i-improve pa talaga iyan after 5K PMS, pero depende pa rin sa route mo yung FC. Under normal everyday conditions 11-12 km/l yung mixed FC ko, pero minsan din bumababa hanggang 9-10 lang lalo pag nakaabot sa rush hour traffic (lalo sa may Coastal Road, na minsan nagiging parking lot na dahil sa traffic

).

Wow, that's something to look forward to. Odo now reads 4,400 kms. Route ko is Banawe area to Makati. Puro side streets ang daan kaya laging slow driving lang. Thanks for the info bro.

Sa experience ko mas naramdaman ko talaga yung improvements sa performance at FC pagkatapos ng 5K PMS kasi kumbaga totally "broken-in" na yung sasakyan. Still, depende pa rin iyan sa lagi mong dinadaanan; kapag laging stop-and-go dahil sa traffic or kahit humps, don't expect good FC figures. Ganun din kapag laging short trips lang yung biyahe mo.
