September 12th, 2014 02:45 PM #311Yup. I know that. I travelled from the covered parking to the gas station which is just about 1km away and the tire pressure was as I mentioned eventhough I topped up 3 weeks before with 33 front 30 rear. Did not drive the car the day before. Which is why I am puzzled with the pressure difference.

September 15th, 2014 06:51 PM #314Re tire pressure monitoring - I topped up tire pressure previously on a different machine which is why I assumed it had higher water content when I pumped air in. My problem really in the Seaoil Station I top up in is it only has "manual" method of checking tire pressure when filling up. So I have to go to another station that has a digital auto readout when I get the chance to pass by there. hehe!
Re Ecopia tires - I haven't driven them at speed in really bad weather yet, but in the rain yes. I did not feel a "floaty" steering wheel when I drove it at 60-80kph on the expressway before so I assume the water dispersal was enough at least to prevent the tires from aquaplaning off the road.
As for braking, had no emergency situation where I needed to brake hard so I can't really say but the disc brakes seem to be quite grippy (for me) so along with the ABS, should be able to stop properly like any other car even in the rain. The new Eco tires shouldn't have too drastic a difference of grip in the rain like how they originally started so my fingers are of course crossed hoping I don't have to encounter such a situation.

In fairness maganda naman experience ko sa test drive with the sylphy top of the line. Definitely better ride quality sa 2014 altis ko. No doubt panalo to pagdating comfort and cabin insulation. I feel like I'm driving a vios din kasi the view from the driver seat is good unlike sa altis ko na parang magdadalawang isip ka magmaniobra kasi ang taas nung dashboard.
The cabin lacks innovation, too simple and straight to the point. Not exciting.
My other concern is yung engine power and xtronic cvt. Good at low speeds pero di talaga humahataw even in sport mode. Sport mode just causes unecessary engine noise imo. I don't understand why the ecu holds up the rpm in sport mode.
Overall, okay tong sylphy if chill and smooth driving ka palagi. Imo marami naman good points tong sylphy.

To the 1.8V owners, how many is your speakers? I am now here at nissan shaw to let them check why i dont have a sound at the back when i adjust the font and rear speaker, they are now telling me that the sylphy 1.8v here is just 4 speakers, when in the brochure it is clear that it has 6 speakers. GRRRRRRRRRRR!!!!!!

Here is what happen, my complain was that i cant hear any sound from the back when i adjust the fader of the radio, the SA after a while approached me and said that it is really like that because the 1.8 model here has only 4 speakers, two at the front door and the two tweeters on the side of the windshield and the back where the third break light is no speakers, that is what he said to me. i told him that from what i know, the back doors has two speakers and the place where the third brake light is, there is no speakers.
The SA said, ah ok sir, hindi nag ka intindihan yun pa lang sa pinto sa likod ang walang tunog, ok sir, papa check ko. in the first place, i did not asked them to count the speakers, second i am clear that my complain was about the sound at the back when i adjust the fader of the radio, either he dont know the placed of the speakers of 1.8 sylphy or people here in nissan shaw service are incompetent!!!!
They Make my day.

September 22nd, 2014 02:14 PM #320that's strange... tasado sa speakers ang hi end model nila...
hindi kaya, may speakers nga sa likod, nguni at hindi lang naka-kabit?
i have a dangerous method to find out if there are speakers or not behind that wall...
get a fine wire or needle. blunt one end by bending it into itself. then stick it into the supposed speaker hole on the door panel.. if there is a speaker cone behind it, you'll feel it.. be very careful, as you don't want to punch a hole thru the cone..
good luck.Last edited by dr. d; September 22nd, 2014 at 02:19 PM.
