Mitsubishi Mirage G4

[dr. d]

hi sir *dr. d, sorry for the late response as i was out of the office yesterday. recommended CVT oil change is 40K and the noise i noticed is due to uneven roads, not coming from the tranny. Thanks!

btw, some say, wait for 3 years or till the warranty expires pero iniisip ko sobrang laki ng matitipid ko plus the fact na nakikita mo na ginagawa ng maayos yung PMS pag outside sa casa ka. your thoughts? thanks!

for the neophyte, who does not know a money wrench from a monkey bar, casa is probably the safe choice. it is more expensive, but there is that "peace of mind" that they did it right. expensive, but right.
if you have the car serviced outside the official garage, there is always the chance that the mechanic wasn't trained adequately to service the quirks of your car. now, if you know cars and you see and understand what they do, then that's fine. you'll also sleep well at night.

i had my car serviced at the dealer's, during the warranty period.
after that, sa petron na lang. a fraction of the price of the oil change na, no waiting pa.

tanong ko lang sa Mirage Owners.

Pansin ko kasi online na yung GLS may stabilizer bar yung front suspension compared sa GLX na wala...

malaking bagay ba sya sa handling?

*ice15, based sa feedback ng nakakarami - wala masyadong effect.

Planning to buy a mirage g4 GLX 1.2 CVT variant, first car po. Ok ba siya on long drives and specially high climbs like Baguio o stay away sa mga ganung out of town drives?

Thanks in advance.

my opinion for it, as well as for most other mini cars, is: "it will get the job done. but do not expect lavish comfort nor exceptional climbing or accelerating ability".

^ Agree.

Kaya naman, and kakayanin. If he's been to baguio, he probably have noticed na madami ding mga Wigo dun. So kaya and kinakaya sya

True. Of the 3 Mitsubishis that I had, the Mirage is the least Mitsubishi-like. Handling is poor and NVH is non-existent. Buyer's remorse after 4 years. LOL

Ang brightside lang is maganda ang fuel economy. It gets 12km/li on edsa rush hour traffic.

Thanks for the info. God bless sa inyong lahat.

kayang kaya yan...kung di kakayanin, may option naman to use "engine break" - B-mode since CVT tranny gusto mo. haven't been to Baguio pero tama sila, madaming nagawi na wigo at celerio dun. i cannot compare Baguio sa Baler kasi the latter palang nabbyahe ko gamit ang oto ko.
