"there is nothing free in the auto industry."
bring the side mirror problem to a shop outside the casa.
for sure, you can have them repaired, at cheaper price.

malay nga natin....
but what do we expect from a dealer, who charges a cheap, "nahihingi-type" na filter washer, for 30 bucks?
heh heh.

[Ewric]

hehehe,really ganun talaga sila? doc when ko ba dapat lagyan ng air yung sasakyan or pwedeng any suking gas station nearby na lang,madali lang ba? been watching videos di ko talaga maintindihan, yung pang bike na depedal pwede ba yun tatanchahin ko lang example.after 5seconds bawat isa...tanga ko no grabe....

i will personally put in air into my tires using a hand- (God forbid!!) or foot-pump, only if there is no recourse.
i always have an electric tire pump in the car, for justin.
checking the tire air pressure once every one or two weeks is ideal, although it does take a certain amount of discipline.
personally, once a month ang akin. dinadala ko sa gas station. i give the gas man a little tip (10-20 bucks). and don't forget the spare tire. there's nothing more heart-rending, than getting into a flat and finding out that your flat tire has more air in it than your spare.
i lose 1-2 psi a month, or up to 4 psi in two months.

30 will suffice pero sabihin ko kuya marunong ka?hahaha kainis!

"it's in the manual."
i put in 10% more, para magaan ang manibela.

kunyare lang pero gusto ko lang matuto tignan ko "ilang seconds" niya lalagyan ng hangin each tire, sabihin ko naka skirt ako kuya ayaw ko madumihan pero ang totoo hindi ako marunong hahaha...

depende naman kung gaano ka-taas ang air pressure sa compressor nila.
kung mataas pressure, mabilis.
kung hindi gaanong mataas pressure, mas matagal ang lagay hangin.
i look at the pressure gauge of the gadget, to see that the correct pressure is delivered.
and it is also a good maneuver to go out and check, because sometimes, they forget to screw back on, the cap covers.

[Ewric]

ill look closely ba sa gauge na parang dapat stable siya for how many seconds po usually bago sabihing enough na?

the one i go to, has a digital read-out.
the operator punches in the desired pressure. then he attaches the nozzle to the tire, upon which it will give the opening pressure. then, as air is pushed in, you will see the numbers go up until the desired pressure, after which it pings a sound.
end of filling.

[Ewric]

ok theres a sound naman pala once its ok na...

It's also a good practice to check your tires' air pressure while the tire is cold (Ex: driven less than 1.6km at moderate speed).

Dati ginawa ko sarili maglagay ng hangin sa gas station. Hindi ko magawa parang may technique ang paglagay. Kaya pinapaubaya ko nalang sa mga gas station. Nagbibigay nalang ako ng tip 10php.

Nagpapalit na ako ng gulong kanina sa bridgestone. Nagpromo kasi un ecopia ep200. 195/65/15 at 3,285php (cash) per tire. Pag credit card nasa 3,555php. Problem nung istart na naman un kotse, ayaw mag start. Inabot kami ng 30 mins just to stsrt na car. Parang nag lock un manibela. Ginawa na namin un move left and right sa manibela ayaw parin. In the end, nagstart sya, pero ang problema ngayon, hindi matanggal un susi. Hanggang accessories nalang sya. Hindi mapihiy sa off para mabunot ang susi. Weird thing is un susi ko, isang side lang gumagana. Pag kabilang side ang pinasok mo sa key ignition, hindi pumapasok. Normal ba un? Alam ko kahit anong kotse both sides ng susi maipapasok mo. Since nabili ko un unit last month ganun talaga un susi. Iniwan ko sa talyer ng nakaopen ang driver’s side window kasi baka mag autolock. Dadaan ako ulit para iwan un spare key. check din nila kung ano sira. Baka ignition coil daw.

4 shops na un tinanungan ko at lahat sila rack and pinion ang culprit ng “tok” sound sa manibela. Malaki na gastos ko sa altis na nabili ko.

your suspicion is correct. either side of the key should work. look closely at the key. do both blades look the same?
either the key is worn out, or the keyhole pins are worn out.
although both can be remedied, i'd start with the key, as it is cheaper. ask the key duplicating man to make you a new key. ask him not to follow the old key too faithfully, para medyo mas mataas ang mga ipin ng bagong susi. see if that helps you manipulate the keyhole.

goodpm,if the oil is parang clear pa din hindi madumi since super bihira magamit ang sasakyan due na kaya siya for change oil,di ko na natanong sa driver when pa last nag change oil wala na akong contact sa driver...

some will follow the "X km or every 6 months, whichever comes first." it's in the owner's manual, po.
