    Hows the availability of their parts? Madali ba makakuha or pahirapan?

    I have a Cruze and parts are hard to come by in the casa. Im wondering what if maaksidente ang sasakyan matagal na claim sa insurance. tatagal pa waiting for parts.

    Typical cab operator. Patigasan ng mukha! I bet the police/enforcer was no help at all o baka obvious na sa taxi pa nakaside.

    Yung suggestion sir RTS about making your insurance agent deal with the taxi company, how did that work out?

    Sir don't worry. Majority of us owners walang ganyang experience. 2 pa lang sila ni Ram Angle na ganyan ang nangyari. And albert_b's alternator had been replaced already. No worries na.

    I submitted required documents minus police report, bahala na raw sila , sa shop they have there own affilated shop daw but for the meantime have to wait for the replacement fender, our participation P 9K plus. they will notify us when to bring the car, I think sa chevy casa din kaya lang mas mura ang quotation kaysa North.

    PRESTIGE comes with a price

    a 1li FS oil is charged around P7++.++ & about the same price for oil filter (P14++.++)

    that will make labor cost around P2000.00 for a minor job such as oil top up & oil filter change, kinda costly

    the rest of the cost are covered by sundries

    Sa Chevy Commonwealth mura lang ang oil top up with oil filter change. 3.4k kasama na labor. Pag oil change na PMS with all the accompanying na gagawin, 6.9k lang with labor na. That's for the Trailblazer. Mura lang labor nila wala pang 2k. Around 1.5-1.7k lang.

    Mga Sir nun 1st PMS nyo ba nag Engine Flush ba? I am reading/researching about it and it is bad for the engine unless di daw alam yun history ng car/engine. kasi strong chemical daw yun tapos ang sabi nila yun chemical ng engine oil natin is enough to clean the internals.

    any input(s)? thanks

    ^its not that bad, its just not necessary for a 1thou km PMS because a mineral oil will not exhibit gumming or gelling in a short period of ownership. engine flushing mixture soften gums to make it easy to extract that unwanted material in your engine. for the first 1thou km its important to remove the metal shavings due to natural tight fit of a newly assembled engine as soon as possible

    for 5thou km PMS which had taken some time (at least 6 months), its fine, just to avoid the hassle of arguing with the service advisor. brand new cars are typically filled with mineral oil for economical reason & its susceptible to gumming. remember after manufacturing, your brand new car was filled with oil & stayed in the stock yard for quite a while before you got your hands with it

    just think of it as having it (flushing) billed in your receipt will help in future warranty claims

    Marami Trailblazer? Wala naman ah. Yung mga nakita mo, panay isolated case at konti lang yun. 3 isolated cases. Wag kang gumawa ng kwento. Masaya kaming Trailblazer Club members at mga fellow TB owners sa mga Trailblazer namin.

    I smell paninira sa Trailblazer here.
