How do I get rid of the water marks on my truck's windshield and other glass surfaces?

Lalo na dun sa malapit na mawala sa warranty. sana makatulong ito sa inyo

Thanks for the advice, sir. I also heard about this EGR cleaning from my SA. Regarding your 40k PMS, ang dami namang extra income generating tactics na di naman talaga kailangan like gas/diesel treatment, engine flushing, etc... Yung car care kit at engine protector, mas mura pa kung sa suking car wash na lang... Ano yung shop consumables? Yun ba yung free coffee dapat... Sa presyong P234, sana may kasamang clubhouse sandwich o pasta...

But could somebody enlighten us how the 1.5 gets consumed? By the way, I remember that only once did they give me back the excess oil from the top-up. I did not demand it na because I don't have a need for it at those times baka mai-dispose ko pa improperly, mas masahol pa kesa sa tambutso lumabas.

Just had my 35k PMS. I observed and asked the mechanic while he was filling the engine block w/ oil. Only 8.35 liters of oil was needed for 3.2L engine. So may 650ml na natira. Checked the dipstick, medyo lampas lang ng konting-konti sa max line. Pero I had to ask for the excess oil. Para sa next oil change, 8 liters na lang bibilhin ko. P600 then kasi 1 liter.

tanong lang mga bossing...

1. had change oil on my 1k then top-up sa 5k...when do we change and top-up? sa 10k ba change oil then 15k top-up ulit?

2. having problems with my keyless entry. winterpine ang supplier ng stock. ilang beses na din binuksan pero parati bumibitaw ang cable so di gumagana ang keyless, kelangan pa susian. anyone who has the same problem?

many thanks! andy

TSCP members who wants to use K&N filters, fellow tsikoteers XTO is selling, PM him for the price. Good price for TSCP and MSCP members!

He will soon have Royal Purple oil at a good price din for the two clubs.

totoy_22: yup, you got it correct regarding oils.

regarding dun sa di gumagana yung keyless entry, nangyari na rin sa akin yan pero casa ang nakasira. inayos nila agad, mga 10mins lang ayos na. may nagloose lang po na lock, yung maliit.

may I know kung anong year model po yung sainyo? kasi magkaiba na daw ang lock nung cable sa mga naunang model ng strada sa newer models ngayon.
