i noticed i get 'electricuted' by bernie often... has anyone experienced this? at first, i thought it was just a freak of nature... but it happens often... and i mean a couple of times a day.... this happens when i touch the outside of the doors when i close it. any inputs on this? is it caused by some short circuit somewhere on the car?

try downy or any fabric softener. usually its with a certain fabric creating that static when getting in and out of your car. some people are very energetic. hehhehe. kidding aside, just try fabric softner, maybe add a few more.

thanks for the setup. nice nice. but sana you can post head unit after it was installed.

fabric softer? where and how do i apply that? ... sorry, medyo slow ako hehehe. Re HU unit, stock lang. I did not change it. Thanks

Dumihin ba yung mineral silver? Lalo na ngayon, ulan-araw ang panahon.

Sir SG, yung sand track nyo, dumihin din ba?

Alin ba ang madaling i-maintain na kulay? Signal Red?

Pinaka safe na color na yung mineral silver. Yung sand track medyo nahahalata na yung dumi kasi sumobra sa dark Kung ka-shade lang siguro yun nung silky bronze baka ok pa.

Signal red? yari ka sa swirl marks at scratches! parang black din yan. Hahaha

Namasyal ako kanina, pareho ba yung Sand Track ng Sportage at Java Brown ng Sorento? Wala kasi Sand track na display eh. Hindi naman sigurado yung SA. Tapos dugtong pa na "nagiging parang green" daw yung Sand Track kapag naarawan. Ha?

Mga wala alam alam na SA yan. Sa brochure kasi ng sorento mali ang lagay ng picture nila sa java brown, dark green yon naka lagay. maka ibang ang color shade ng java brown sorento sa sand track ng sportage.

Halos pareho lang yung sand track at java brown. Parang mas dark lang yung sand track at nagkakaroon ng konting dark moss green shade.

Yung Explorer ko stone green ang color name pero basically brown lang din..

Naku, dapat pala talaga makita ng actual yung unit-color. Based on pictures nyo Sir SG, hindi ko mapansin yung green shade na sinasabi mo. Thanks. ;)

[Starex_Gold]

Mineral silver nalang kunin mo...

Congrats sa Techno Orange AWD

Hi Can anyone refer me to a dealer with available Techno Orange color im very interested with this one thanks.

Guys napapansin niyo ba parang walang silbi yung mud guards natin?

Grabe parin tumalsik sa body yung mga dumi.

Sportage owners, have any of you experience any paint chipping due to rocks hitting the rear door of your ride? Baka related ito sa observation ni Sir SG. Below is a link about it, plus may sinabi silang sticker/protective strip, as a workaround. Hindi ko napansin kung mayroon yung strip na yun during my casa visits. Ang pangit ng workaround.

There is a sticker protective strip on the rear door but I took it off last week. After 4 months my unit was released napansin ko na nag iba na ang kulay and halata na ang strip naninilaw since parang transparent tape lang. White kasi yung sportage ko kaya eventually mas mahirap tanggalin in the future and mag iba ang color kapag pinatagal ko pa. Baka mag ka mark pa ng strip in the long run. Anyway wala naman snow sa atin hehe.

Hahaha, di ok lang naman. Sa Tucson ayaw ko Lang dumami ang Premium

Ah, so mayroon nga ng strip, hindi ko napansin sa casa. Wala naman marks or scratches yung strip ng tinanggal nyo?

[onin_168]

After removing the strip , asphalt removal , car wash with shampoo then wax ang ginawa ko. Para mawala ang sticker marks.

[IceT]

Ayos! Ang isa pa daw na workaround ay yung step board. Parang shield sa mga tumatalsik na bato or whatever. Hindi ko rin naman gusto na may step board, mas mahirap pa nga umakyat at bumaba kung mayroon noon eh. Thanks.

Ang tagal ma approve nong pambili ko ng Sportage!
Kanino puwedeng himiram?!?

Nagpunta ako sa kia dealership last weekend para tumingin ng color before i make the reservation.
Nakita ko in actual yung black cherry, sand track at mineral silver.
Hindi ako maka decide, but i have narrowed down my choices to 2: mineral silver or sand track.

[IceT]

Sir, Saan dealer yan? Gusto ko din makita sa personal yung dalawang color na yan eh. TIA.
