I feel ang taas na ng mileage ko for a 2001 model at 49,500kms. Daily driven na kasi since I sold my other car. I also think mahirap mag-benta ng car pag mataas ang mileage. Specially for an Opel, baka sobrang mura ko na mabenta and itago ko nalang yung car hanggang mabulok.
What is a reasonable mileage for a used car??

My Astra is a 2002 model with about 26k+ kms on it already. Its driven about 3-4 days a week but only for dropping/picking up the kids in school. I think the reasonable mileage for a used car is dependent on its age. I maybe wrong but perhaps an average mileage of 15-20k kms/year is a good benchmark. Just do the math on your cars from there.

I also think 15T to 20T is about right in a year.

So ang 2001 model which is a 5 year old car should have made 75-100,000kms. So mababa pa ang mileage ng car ko at 49,500 kms.

May illusion kasi sa used car na basta umabot na ng 100,000kms ang kotse, laspag na.

So 55 kms a day or lower ang average use dapat ng car.

i saw from another forum that cruven or zee ok daw pagdating sa suspension, di ko lang alam kung nag align sila. you can also try bridgestone sa fort, haven't had anything done by them pero mukhang ok yung place, they even have nitrogen for the tires (stable air temp in tire even at high speed daw).

and you think you can send via pm the electricians of opel who do home service? natasatanas ok lang ba if i ask it from manager?

nakapunta na ako sa cruven.. pinagawa ko yung astra ko.. may tumutunog kasi sa harap eh... nung tiningnan yung stabilizer link problem.. inayos nila tapos pati iba kong pag ilalim pinaayos ko na din kasi kalas na.. cost me 4.1k for the repairs... and so far ok naman.... alignment nila manual lang.. so I suggest na sa servitek na lang...

ayus 'to! been there din sa cruven many times para sa pang-ilalim ng oldschool ko. ok service nila at maasikaso c sir claro, yung may ari. its good to know that they can do opels as well, although i am not surprised kasi saw a few bimmers, prepping up for a fun run daw, being serviced. yung stab link na 'to daw ay isa sa mga sakit ng astra, kadalasan sa driver side. have the same problem now and will visit cruven na rin! thanks sa post boss bino727!

that's good to know! btw, is the stab link the plastic part (vertical in orientation) that makes a really bad creaking sound (over humps or rough roads), medyo mura naman palitan (mga P1k plus) or is it something else? For the P4.1k job ano pa ginawa sa pangilalim? May konting mga creak na rin astra ko, very tolerable pa naman but in the future kakailanganin na siguro.

Hi caloystermx5. Yes, yun na ang Stabilizer Link. It is a common problem to most cars. Yung Ford Lynx namin, 2 years old pa lang, nasira na ang stabilizer link. The Ford stabilizer link cost P2,500 sa Casa. Sa Zafira ko tumagal nang 4 years. P1,200 lang ang Stabilizer link sa GM autoworld.
