I had the cam installed by our local casa here in Cebu. Installation just took more or less an hour and a half.

I still have to test this one out. Just had it installed this morning. I could probably give a feed back on this tomorrow night. Hopefully it turns out well.

Ok naman ang transmission oil... worried lang ako kasi yung engine oil since nagpa 1k PMS ko low ang level niya.. kaya ng pumunta ako sa service center low nga kaya dinagdagan nila... image nag-kasya ang 1 liter.

Bro, ang alam ko yung asx natin is motorized ( electronic) power steering siya..di tulad ng convetional na power steering which uses hyrdraulic ( power steering fluid) and naka coupled sa engine..i think walang kinalaman yung power steering ng asx sa makina...gaanu kabigat manibela kapag iniikot mo?para bang walang power steering?..nagpalit ka ba ng mags?if not, dapat ang e checked sa asx mo is yung motor na nakacouple sa steering column mo..baka may loose connection lang somewhere dun..

yung level sa dip stick sa engine natin bro has 2 indicators, isang low at isang high..normally yung level ng oil in the morning, w/o starting the car is above half nung 2 indicators...nasa "low" indicator na ba yung oil mo?how low is your "low" at your dip stick?maybe kaya di sinagad ng service tech yung oil mo is that mahirap sumobra langis sa engine kesa magkulang but not as low as the low indicator..

I have a heavy foot and the only time I appreciate straight line is on stoplights... though I know the car can handle corners.

as I understand it, the 6 speed paddle shifters are just virtual or a simulation of gears... medyo psychological ba yun speed kung paddle shifters ang gamitin?!

The asx is a bit slow in my eyes or feel :-( but maybe because Im not used to the CVT

Also, the car does not like revving (if I use the paddle shifters to hold on virtual gears), a bit surprised considering its MIVEC... (BTW - I also have a Grandis with MIVEC) it revs beautifully

Any thoughts?

Thanks

Baka sanay ka lang sa malaking makina bro?...hehehehe...and isa pa, ang alam ko 4 peed lang cvt ng grandis compared sa asx na 6 speed..siguro may difference din sa ratios yung dami ng gear simulations..kasi basing from my experience, comparing the cvt of the asx sa a/t ng fortuner, changing from D to 3 (fortuner) and from a high to a lower gear ( asx cvt), mas favor ako sa cvt..although syempre iba talaga hatak nung 2.7 vvt-i compared sa 2.0 MIVEC na makina.

Nasa between H and L yung level na nag-checked ako between ng 2 hole.. dinala ko nga sa Peak Motors... dinagdagan nila.. Kaya lang nagtataka ako kasi last 1k PMS ko last March lang at april umalis ako ng 3 months noong pag uwi ko..nag-check ako lahat pati tire pressure bago ko ilabas ang sasakyan ko... ayun nakita ko ganoon na nga. wala namang leak sa garage.... kaya now sabi skin ng technician observe lang daw.... this weekend aalis ako nag-llong driving kaya malalaman ko pag uwi ko kung nabawasan nga ng oil... yung sa steering... ganoon din obserbahan ko rin. Thanks parekoy.

Mas makakatipid ba ng gas kung gagamitin ang CVT?

Siguro, pero kaunti lang effect sa fc nung paggamit ng manual mode sa cvt..nakadepende pa din yun sa pag apak mo sa accelerator and sa traffic..

I also have the Grandis and it is a conventional 4 speed AT not a CVT

Im not doubting the speed of the shifting, actually magaling nga ang asx...

Its the straight line, (or basically 1st gear if you hold it)... parang ayaw umakyat ng RPN, or mabagal umakyat... I just hope its psychological rather than being plain slow.

My expectations are tempered... a matic Altis 1.6, though slow, revs nicely... a heavier CRV 2.0 feels faster... But I just hope its only a feeling...

anyone knows the acceleration of ASX (0-100km)?

BTW - its not a complain, just an observation.

Im sure it translates to better mileage... but sometimes, you also want to drive fast :-)

The ASX is actually quicker than most 2.0s in the class (0-100 km/h) and quicker than even some 2.5 ATs... at least until 80-100 km/h, after which the more powerful cars start to pull away.

0-100kph is around 11 seconds for the ASX 2.0 CVT
