**111prez** · May 7th, 2011 10:03 AM

here is my first fuel economy report

method is manual computation, automatic stop of fuel pump at first click

total km travelled: 347.1
total liters used: 49.8
FUEL ECONOMY: 6.97km/L

average speed: 13km/h
100% city driving, aircon on (about 23 degrees, fan speed 2), about 45 minutes idling (cumulative when i was in car parks and testing for smoke emission during first few days), all day driving

i can't use the MIS to compare because the information always resets to zero at the start of each day.

had the tint outside and got solar gard

as for the rear camera, i would also rather have this installed by the casa to avoid voiding any warranties. if not, i can live without a rear camera

Nice info here chief for those trying to buy for he 1st time. Very helpful indeed.

Anyone tried to have the OEM tire replaced by an AT tire? Is this possible and how much if ever?

It was placed at the rear lamps for the plates so they had to remove the whole back siding to install it. Plus I got the assurance that when something happens to my MID or anything electrIcal....kasama pa rin sa warranty, not just the camera. Learn from experience from my previous car, hehe

HTH

Pictures naman dyan sir

naaayos naman boss?

yung sa akin ganon pa din. sagad na daw ang adjustments. wala naman sa mags/tires ang problema, saka nirotate na namin lahat ng gulong..

pag diretso ang steering wheel may kabig sa left

kapag binitiwan mo naman may kabig sa right

pati sa ibang shop hindi na alam ang gagawin

ang saya noh!?

i love the rims so i am planning to replace only the tires when the time comes to cross luzon island to mindoro to panay to negros. when time comes, i would like to paint the rims gunmetal silver, hehehehe

i am looking at yokohama geolander A-T/S, 265/70 17

made the tire calculation already and the variance is 3.41% from stock with an increase tire height to 31.61 inches from 30.56 (stock), all with the same rims

Visited Citimotors Mataki this morning to because of a 6 inch stain I found right above the GTV emblem on the back. I spoke to one of the staff and she said did you get your insurance with us. I said to her, Miss I just got the car last week. I am certain it is still under warranty. After a few minutes one of the service guys came down with some 3m rubbing compound, he was able to remove the stain in seconds. I heard that one of the other service guys did not want to come down to clean my stain, so I took out PHP100.00 and gave it to the guy that clean my stain off. I said tell your co worker, because he was to lazy he wasn't able to get a tip.

When I came home and started to look over my spoiler for the first time, I noticed under the spoiler I had similar orange stains. WTF.

17.a GPS update.

I've noticed a slow down in how the GPS updates while driving. I questioned Winterpine staff if it is because of the SD card they are using. Could it be to slow? I asked If I could bring my own high speed SD card in the future they said no problem.

i was told that so long as you do not change the rims, the warranty will not be voided

citimotors makati's "customers waiting lounge" is like a batcave...grabe kadilim pag isang ilaw lang ang nakabukas dun. service personnel dyan mostly tamad kung papagawa mo lang ay mga minor na alam nila hindi sila kikita.
