Strada PMS thread [ARCHIVED]

[ejaydq]

Skippy. Sir did i read it right. Ayaw mag start yung strada mo? Then suddenly nag start.

Feeling ko sir na ground lang. That affected the cpu and alarm. But have them check sa casa. Agree ako that mmas alarm is not the best.

pano nagiging grounded ral?

Uhm, got wet, moisture, i dont know. When i had my engine washed, nagloloko alarm ko. Ayaw mag function certain buttons.

Maybe yung mayari may ginawa mali, the car grounded him. Lol

srp nila if may receipt nasa 600plus but got it for less than 550, nung pinorder ko na sa secretary ko, i was expecting the old mobil1 5w40 na puwede pang gas or diesel, i was surprise they came up with a new version for turbo diesel truck.

Sir, where did you buy your Mobil 1 turbo diesel truck synthetic oil?

[dBoss]

Check mo lang wiper mo sir, baka merong lumuwang...

or pwede rin upgrade ka ng PIAA wipers, tulad kay bossing Jashty...

Hindi maluwag bro. Makapit/malagkit masyado ang rubber.. last night ang lakas ng ulan palabas kami ng Trinoma %^&*()^ talaga ang wiper blades ang ingay, okay siya sa start pero pag tumagal na, sobrang kapit ng rubber kaya nanginginig at very annoying. Blades raw hindi kasama sa warranty.... I will have it replaced.. is Bosch with the yellow or colorless silicon blades wiper set okay, any feedback mga BOBS?

Also, what are the size of the right and left; plan to get it before heading back to Bataan.

On the OIL --- Royal Purple (RP 15w40) rocks man so smooth and the color is "purple" - unique!. Thanks to Al_works who delivered the RP early morning (7:30AM) yesterday at Diamond-QAve before I had my rig booked for the 5000km PMS. Decision to go 100% synthethic worth every cent. I may use this brand in my L300.

Kakainis lang si Aurelio was on SL, hangover according to Boyet. Bossing Boyet assisted me but was given to a "monotone voice SA" a simple "yes" and "no" in my questions; went out to be acceptable though but not as good as I had with Aurelio.

Since it's my oil, I gave them 7 liters only; full on the deep stick therefore, in my next PM I will discuss the "8" liter directly with Boyet.

the alarm and the actuator in their power locks really suck, BIG TIME kaya i didn't bother to seek warranty anymore, i just had my whole alarm replaced with a generic taiwan brand, as well as the actuator, so far 8 months na, wala pa din problem. unlike sa stock alarm, babalik at babalik ka sa casa or sa winter pine. oras and abala saskit na ulo mo.

Also, parang naghang ata yung remote ko kahapon. The orange dot is perpetually lighting up and the lock/unlock wont work.

Sir orange o red 'yung kulay? Kasi 'lam ko 'yung sa 09 series e kapag orange ang umiilaw e naka-button lock 'yung remote para hindi aksidenteng mapindot. Ano ba itsura ng remote mo? 'Yung mitsu logo type?

Dumaan akong Autoplus noong sabado at akalain niyong may Motul na pala hehe. Kaso mga BOSBs nagmahal na, 587.50/liter na, bale 2,350 per gallon Binigay naman 'yung 10% discount bale 4,700 naging 4,230. Mukhang kailangan na talagang lumipat ng ibang brand hehe. Sana e magbago isip ng Speedyfix at bigyan na ang TSCP ng discount sa Royal Purple hehe.

hehehe...don't fret bro....We'll do some thorough market search to find a better and cheap alternative...

autoplus is really taking advantage na on the common rail users

hi guys, sorry for the late reply.

yep, strada started an hour and a half after. go figure

as for the alarm, it's the orange light... i thought of using the spare... same banana... orange light... read the manual... button lock... so i did the combo pressing of II and III... nada... it's the old diamond logo alarm key by the way.

sir ianmitsulancer, was in baguio for the holidays lang, stayed in microtel

so far, no problems with the strada. turbo diesel works great. not as "noisy" and the shifting (3.2L) and acceleration seem to be a lot smoother. worth the extra money.

yung alarm... hassle talaga... i had the casa turn the alarm off when i got my unit last '08 because it was so freakin' annoying. they crammed too much feature on something that only has 3 buttons. same goes for the stupid head unit that we have.

the strada is a great pickup but little things like this really detract from the overall ownership experience.

and one poster is right... i don't care about the cost but i do care about my time being wasted going back and forth.

anyway, i'll just have it checked when i go for PM.

btw, i tried popping out the batteryon the remote key to see if it will fix itself. nada

[Idoy]

Don't get me started!

My steering column has been replaced twice cause of the unnerving "lagatok" sound. Meron pa rin, kaso minimal na lang. I'll accept it for now.

What I can't stand it took them 4 days to figure it out. So taxi ako sa mga araw na iyon.

After they fixed my problem. Nawala naman ang alarm ko. So I returned again for the nth time.

Pinalitan nila ng "temporary". Ang pangit ng tunog. After an hour, wala na akong alarm.

Great.

So I returned again for the nth time (did I say the nth time before?) to fix the alarm.

Di nila naayos. At pinababalik ulit ako ng tues or wed for replacement. Kuha daw sila sa winterpine muna.

I'm about to give up. And they're supposed to be the BEST casa service recommend by this forum.
