at tranny or manual tranny

[dfa172001]

mga sir, ok ba na bumili ng 2nd hand vehicle na matic, paano icheck kung ok, ang ikinatatakot ko, baka mamaya bumigay habang ginagamit, matibay ba ang matic tranny? ok ba na bumili ng 2nd hand vehicle na at tranny like starex and carnival? magastos ba ito pag nasira? thanks mga sir.

ok naman. pero talagang depende sa condition. i really don't know how to check it out. i have not used an AT pa eh.

have known guys who bought AT vehicles with no problem.

and yes, medyo mas mataas ang maintenance and gastos ng AT tranny compared to MT.

dami na atang thread about this debate, hanap mo nalang..

mods, pwede bang i-merge ito sa iba?

pag bibili ka ng matic ganito, patakbuhin mo ung sasakyan around the corner or 5 mins idling... then amoy mo ung atf by pulling the dipstick:

kung amoy sunog, iwan mo at maghanap ka ng iba...kung matamis-tamis *maasim-asim ang amoy, ok yan....

well, that the cost of luxury and convienience...parang pawis and power steering lang yan....

di naman lahat masisira agad. depende na sa milage pagkabili mo and other factors.

swertihan lang sa pagkuha ng unit and be prepared. it's more
expensive to maintain compared to m/t.
for me, a/t means more fuel, battery, and brake consumption in
exchange of comfort. it's for you to choose. try using the seach function for more inputs. it helps.

makaka tatlong palit ka na ng clutch disc at master clutch cylinder sa m/t bago masira ang a/t tranny. that's if you take care of the a/t tranny ha.

in the end, parang ganun din costwise eh...5 figures para sa multiple clutch replacements, 5 fiugures din para sa a/t overhaul/surplus. with an a/t you get convenience pa. the only added cost of an a/t is in the a/t fluid, dpat palit every 20 or 30T kms. fuel? new a/t cars are not like the old hydramatics of the 80s and 70s...every gearshift is controlled mechanically and electronically na. may nabasa nga ako nun na mas matipid pa mga a/t civics kesa m/ts eh.
