2013 Nissan Sentra aka Sylphy

I haven't noticed that sound at the driver side door. Maybe I'll check it out tomorrow and test the fog lights switch.

Meron ba discount sa Silphy ngaun? Saka any review from the 1.6 CVT owners out there?

The discounts that any dealer publicly advertises normally relies on you getting in house financing. The discounts are the bait to lure you in with the in house financing.

If you don't have working relationship with any bank, then sometimes, that in house financing would be a bit cheaper.

But the reality is that you can get a better deal if you can a financing rate from the bank and deal with the directly and let them deal with the dealer (Nissan in this case).

As for discounts, there were when I confirmed my order with financing thru my bank just this June. That discount is less 13k from the advertised SRP.

You can always get a quote from Nissan regarding your preferred DP and the term duration and compare that with a bank of your choice.

In house packages the insurance free as well as TPL along with Chattel Mortgage. Thru bank financing, those are all outside the bank and you need to shell out for them.

Just compare and decide.

Regarding the review, I've only driven our unit about 200kms and already gave my initial thoughts in this thread. Just back read 2-3 pages I think. I can't concretely recall if another user has already posted their impression of owning a 1.6CVT along side mine.

Anybody here experience a different sound when closing your driver door? during my 1k PMS i told nissan shaw about that sound and they said that, that is one minor problem that they encountered with SYLPHY. Even the fresh pull out from the plant has that problem. I have to bring it back to them since my wife who brought the car during the PMS needs to be on the road before 3pm because of the number coding.

one more thing, my third brake light cover is not fixed, hearing irritating sound during travel. will include that when i bring the car to nissan shaw.

What do you mean that the cover isn't fixed? You mean it broke loose? I checked mine and it's fastened tight. I wonder how yours got loosened.

Its a good thing i have compared it with the other Black sylphy display that i checked before getting a white sylphy.

Dont accept if ever your Service Advisor tells you that it is normal with the sylphy, because its not, they should do something about it.

With more than 1k on ODO, I am averaging 9-10k/l according to the computer city driving with minimal traffic. We will be going to tagaytay this weekend, lets see what highway driving will give me.

Wow, your post is encouraging. 10km/L on a car this size and an automatic at that, is pretty neat. So far, at 840kms, I am only getting less than 7. What fuel do you use sir? I have tried a full tank (40L) of PTT's RON 95 yesterday and quite puzzled why the engine suddenly ran harsh than when it's been loaded with Shell RON91 (fuelsave).

Oh yeah, I keep forgetting to ask 1.8 owners. Do your intelligent key Fobs have a real key hidden inside them that you can pull out? In case the intelligent key loses power?

Or were you given a separate key that is not hidden in the key fob?

I always wondered about that. Because if I recall correctly the ASX my uncle has (with the push start/stop system) doesn't have a real key hidden inside the fob.

Just curious

Ic ic. I can't remember though pero there are instructions on how to start your car in the manual though if and when you intelleigent key "dies" for battery reasons. I didn't care to read it though but I saw it was showing the key inside in the diagram. So just heads up I guess as a need to know in case of battery failure.
