    I usually use the OEM Toyota washer fluid and mix it with some water. P100 more or less for 1L at the CASA.
    Thank you Sirs. Kailangan pa siguro ng extra muscle power.

    Distilled water gamitin pag mix sa washer fluid para walang mineral deposits.

    Kakatanggal ko lang ng seat cover, dun mo hawakan mismo sa clip (fingers on both sides of the clip). One clip at a time ang pagtanggal.

    Nope. The Altis has a pcd 5x100 bolt pattern. The CRV (Camry, Rav4, Previa, Innova) uses a PCD 5x114 bolt pattern.

    Not sure on the tyre size but for the rim, look for a pcd 5x100 with an offset of +45 or less. Anything more than +45, you'll need a spacer to clear the caliper. Sa altisclubzz, may mga nagbebenta ng rims from time to time. i bought my 17" rims from sulit.com after months of looking around for an OEM Toyota rim with the correct bolt pattern.

    With my experience with that Jazz and it's City counterpart, my main gripe was the suspension. I deep potholed a brand new unit at low speed, in a parking lot before and it made a very ugly, uninsulated, "thog" sound. I also heard it from another unit that hit a deep pothole while i was walking on a street before. But the Jazz is lighter to drive around in the city given it's compact size; can't comment on the fuel consumption though.

    Good day altis owners! Lately ive been experiencing foul smell on the aircon. Amoy basahan na d natuyo. Pero eventually nawawala din after few minutes of operation. Same scenario happened with our montero last year. The only resolution what mitsubishi did is to pull down the evaporator for cleaning. Will toyota also do this also? Im only running less than 3k on odo.any same experience guys?:confused:

    lagay mo lang sa fan mga 2 minutes before you park para mawala lamig

    ganyan din sa vios, off ko lang cool before parking (esp. overnight) para lumabas na mga tirang lamig

    tirang lamig lang naman ata yan foul odor eh

    Hi,

    My Dad's planning to upgrade the tires (or in my earnest hopes, rims as well) on my Mom's 10.5 Gen Altis V. The 10.5's relatively lower stance compared to the 9th Gen got her into some trouble with a ramp like construction structure a few days back. Sumayad yung likod kaya kelangang ipagawa yung bumper. Anyhow, enough about what happened, I also don't have the exact details...

    So, my Dad's solution was to lift the ride height a bit with taller tires on stock rims. (Getting my Mom to be more wary of road conditions is a solution that won't probably come. Hehe!) He's planning to chuck the 205/55r16s and trade them in for taller tires - 205/60r16, I assume. I don't have much experience with 16s though. So my clarifications are:
    1) Is there such a size - 205/60r16 locally? And will it fit on stock tires without rubbing?
    2) If I get to upgrade to 17s, what's the size you guys on 17s use? Will 215/50r17 provide additional usable height?

    Thanks!

    ^ 215/55R16 seems okay. If you go for 17s, gor for 215/50R17.

    If you look at the tyre size calculator, the 205/55R16 rims is smaller in diameter versus the stock 195/65R15 of the lower model Altis. The 215/50R17s i put on mine is bigger than both and is quite okay (pero maingat pa rin ako sa mga dips and driveways).

    With the calculator, the 215/55r16 was almost half an inch taller, the 60 series 0.8" taller and the 17" 0.6" taller in terms of overall diameter. Baka nga the 215/55r16 is the way to go, assuming there are available affordable tires. I'm curious as to the 17" though, but it seems there are not much 17" with 5x100 available. May I ask what the specs are on your 17s? Those Imprezza 17" oems are appealing to me. Hehehe!

    Was planning to do the same with my 2.0V 2011. I checked and the stock tire is really 205/55/R16. But aside from my wish for a softer ride, off din kasi ang calibration ng odometer. Checking with a GPS app, it's off by around 5kph from around 30kph onwards. So ang solution ko, hitting two birds with one stone, is to fit taller tires nga. I've checked and there are plenty of 205/60/R16 tires from several brands. Mas mura pa nga siya than the stock size. Case in point, yung Falken ZE914 eh 4,000 sa 205/55 while 3,500 lang sa 205/60. Checking also with tire calculator, the increase in diameter just addresses the odometer error. So 100kph in the odometer with the 205/60 will be closer to the actual GPS speed.

    Any feedback on the aesthetics and handling with this solution?

    All cars are really off from GPS readings at stock tire sizes. My Civic reads 105 kph at 100 kph GPS reading. Same with my Altises before.

    You can upsize to 205/60R16 if you like, but it looks awful. Look at the Focus 1.6 Trend (stock tires are 205/60R16). Sidewalls look too thick.

    The 10th gen Altis already has one of the most comfortable rides across all compacts I've driven. I had the G variant (15" tires) and in comparison to my other 1.6G with 17" tires, ride comfort wasn't signficantly better even with thicker sidewalls.

    Parang problem na ata ng brand new cars ito. Bad trip lang pag may kasakay na iba baho ng unang buga. Try ko din linisin yung cabin filter baka mag improve. Pero dun sa montero namin same problem nawala lang talaga nung pull down evaporator na

    Mahirap yata cleaning ng mga evaporators ngayon dahil pullout dashboard yata. Try mo muna suggestion ni renzo

    Well tgnan mo muna kung kaya mo pawalain by cleaning or yun sinasabi ko. Both, cheaper and less hassle kaysa pull down ng evap

    Boss, tanong ko lang kung anong engine oil ang gamit nyo pati tuwing kelan kau nagchachange oil. Lagi kasing fully synthetic ang gamit ko tapos every 10000km/6 months yung palit. 2012 E yung oto ko. Medyo magastos kc laging sa casa. Salamat.

    IMO, better to go for every 5,000km change oil, kahit regular/mineral-based oil ang gamitin mo.

    Right now i'm using ZIC semi-synthetic, changed every 5,000kms at Toyota Shaw or Pasig (as they allow me to bring my own oil). It's also cheaper if you do away with all unecessary items (i.e. additives) which the CASA offers when you go for service.
