January 23rd, 2013 09:41 AM #233minsan nakakita ako na parang eroplano na tume-take off yung urvan at minsan naman nakakakita ako halos nakatungo na yung urvan.
sa commuter eh wala pa akong napapansin.. anu ibig sabihin kapag ganun? mahina ba suspension ng urvan?

The urvans that take more than 12 passengers have a modified rear suspension making the rear end sit higher. 12 seater urvans do not so when the 12 seaters are overloaded or modified for more cargo or people, the rear end sags under load.
Best advice is to keep within the maximum allowable payload.

February 18th, 2013 02:17 PM #235great thread for peeps looking for family van. read all 24pages!!!
i drove Hiace (with about 12 passengers). Malakas nga makina pero malakas din tagtag -- parang popcorn kami sa lahat lalo na yung sa rearmost.
Have yet to drive an Urvan to get a feel of how slow it is. kelangan din kasi ng power for safe overtakes.
Based on the inputs here on i-Van, papat capital "I" yan as in Insult sa customers ;<.
Natingnan ko na din Kia Carnival pero konti lang seats sa out na sya for me. GTi suggested Starex TCI. An option for me too medyo takot lang ako sa maintenance ng Hyundai cars (as in real casa prices).

^Shortchanged ka talaga with the bare Hiace Commuter (heck even the Grandia GL is bare and uncomfortable for long drives); Maganda lang talaga ang engine and crash worthiness against the Urvan. Try checking out also the Urvan Estate if you want a little more power as it comes with a 3.0L Di engine.
For the Hyundai, you can always opt for a third party source and servicing.

In total, I've seen 5 I-Vans ever since they were launched. No thanks.
*14myXUV,
How many passengers were you planning on carrying? I think if you were to compare an Urvan, a Commuter and a TCi, the cheapest in terms of maintenance would be the Urvan since it is not CRDi nor turbo, then the TCi since it's turbo but not CRDi then the Commuter since it's CRDi.

February 20th, 2013 10:04 AM #238i was assured by a car salesman that Starex parts (gave tie rod and ball joints as example) are way cheaper for Starex than Isuzu if sourced in Banawe. Am really thinking doing regular change oil myself via gas stations. Saw Estate yesterday and I was surprised that its seats are NOT reclinable! whoa! Turn-off ito esp if we're considering long trips.

February 20th, 2013 10:08 AM #239most often 6 lang (incl 3 growing kids). but there wil be occasions for more. On the seating, I am impressed with starex's flexy seat config!!!
with my experience on diesel maintenance(kahit limited pa), am not very comfortable with CRDi in PH yet. thus, the appeal of old school to me like TCI.

3M Color Stable series are all above 50% TSER. RFID readable through the tint, stays good for...
