[jaspi11]

tnx a lot sir! ok na sensor ng seatbelt ko, its warning now everytime i start the engine, you're really of great help. Just want to ask again if pwede pa install ng trunk release sa avanza natin wherein pwede sya add sa remote ng alarm, my abang po kya para sa motor? similar to innova? TIA

Puwede yan, meron nga tayong kasama rito nagpa-kabit ng actuator, e. Kasama naman sa DOOR AJAR indicator iyan, so kasama rin sa alarm.

Sir, mas safe pa rin ang Marcos Highway, kasi, mas malapad ang daan at hindi masyadong matarik. Mas konti rin yata ang rockslides/mudslides/whateverslides.

*xmb,

sir, you may take either Marcos H-way(Longer) or Kennon (Shorter by 15 Km).
As of today, wala naman mga falling rocks (Usually during rainy season lang) sa kennon. You may want to see the waterfalls, Ivy Falls, Lion's Head and of course the obvious-The famous Zigzag Road and the viewdeck!
ALong Marcos Hway naman, mahaba but safer 24hours/day. Wider, smoother pavement etc.... You may want to see the the Tunnel and a view of La Union COastline from the mountain. Wala na kasi ang Viewdeck. Caution lang sa fog before you reach the top. Sometimes heavy (Almost "0" visibility), sometimes light. Remember that you are climbing slowly. DOnt forget your RPM......

Good luck and hope to see you here. WELCOME

Btw, CLosing Ceremony na pala ng Panagbenga 09 this weekend.

mc arthur highway yung national highway pa norte (going to Baguio). Na try ko na both Marcos Hiway and Kennon Road. Ok naman pareho. Na rehabilitate na naman ang Kennon kaya okay na siya daanan. Pero kung di ka naman nagmamadali at loaded ka paakyat, mag marcos ka na lang para less yung matarik na turns. Pababa, mag Kennon ka na lang.

[AvAnzA_84]

sorry double post

[shadow3616931]

Ako lagi kennon, mag ma-marcos lang ako pag sarado kennon, unless kung may bagyo or malakas ulan.

I remember bumaba ako from baguio madaling araw, dumaan ako kennon super lakas ulan. Nung nakauwi ako nabalitaan ko na may van na nadaganan ng boulder puro bata sakay patay lahat. One hour lang pagitan namin (nagkataon masamang damo ako). Simula noon kahit konti ulan lang marcos na ako.

nung nag upgrade ako ng alarm I inquired if pwede lagyan ng trunk release yung door sa likod pwede naman sabi sa casa pero hindi daw advisable kasi mabigat yung door sa likod so baka hindi umangat like with other cars.

Ang alam ko ita-tap yun dun sa car alarm...ang tanong eh kung ang existing alarm mo eh walang trunk release feature eh kung ano ang gagawin?

yes mam my trunk release feature gsm alarm installed sa akin,d ko lang napa install sa yokohama sn pblo because accdg to them cable type daw avanza natin walang abang sa motor, sa 1.3 J daw pwede coz ala release lever sa drivers seat talagang kelangan, sa altis pa lang daw nila nagawa un,what confused me now is if ever pwede naman talaga, kaya nga kaya un bigat i remote para at least umangat man lang. TIA

Sir im glad to know pwede pala talaga, ung napuntahan ko kc installer sabi sa akin walang abang sa motor, kahit pwede sa alarm ko,kaya po kaya ung bigat iangat if ever may maka pag install? Just want to ask personally kung sino as of now sa forumer ang naka install na. TIA

Usually, sir, ang mga ganyan, RELEASE lang ang ginagawa. Iyung sa mga kotse kasi, pag-pop/release, aangat dahil ganun ang design nila, SPRING-LOADED kasi. Iyung sa Avanza, mag-a-unlock lang talaga dahil jack lang ang nakakabit, hindi spring.

Besides, MABIGAT nang di hamak ang pinto ng Avanza kesa sa sedan, bukod pa sa vertical ang orientation nito, habang horizontal naman ang sa kotse.

HTH.

[ownertype]

si ownertype ang alam kong may nilagay na antenna kagaya nung sa yaris.. sa gitna nakalagay.. kaya lang di yata working yung sa kanya.. japorms lang..

yup, meron nga ako nun. aesthetics lang hehe.

mga sir,

need your advice.

i finally got my avanza 1.5G M/T yesterday sa alabang. before receiving the unit, i was able to check the basic things that needs to be checked (as ennumerated by sir _Qwerty_). no dents, all electronics, lights, etc. were working. aircon was fine. inside was clean, engine was clean all freebies were complete. in short, i didn't notice any defect until i was able to drive the unit long distance.

1. I noticed that when i was accelerating from second gear going to third, there was a mid to high pitch humming sound (not too loud but certainly noticeable) that came from the tranmission. parang yun sound ng transmission ng jeep although mas mahina lang sya. pag dating sa recta wala nang humming sound. normal lang po ba ito? it's quite disturbing po considering i've driven other toyota cars like Revo and wala namang ganung sound. sabi ng agent ay normal lang daw to sa avanza, but i don't believe him.

2. I thought na-check ko na po lahat ng dapat i-check, but when i arrived sa bahay. tinignan ko ulit ang unit and ayun, meron pa akong nakitang defect. yun plastic cover sa base ng windshield under the wiper (the plastic that serves as catchment for the water that flowed from the windshield) ay tanggal from the fender and pag tinry mo i-clip ay ayaw mag clip. in short, hindi sya lapat at polido. sabi ulit ng agent, prob daw talaga ng avanza yun. i don't belive him again. for the amount of more than 700k, magbebenta sila ng alam nila na may prob na ganun? that's a lame answer para sakin.

3. And while i was trying to fix the plastic problem meron pa ulit ako nakitang prob (hay naku!). may spot ng kalawang sa division (sa singit to be exact) ng fender and the frame going to the roof. i tried cleaning it and it revealed na tuklap ang pintura sa tapat na yun and tinubuan ng kalawang. Ano p ba ang pwede gawin dito ng toyota?

All in all i was very disappointed with my avanza. for the amount of 700k + ang low quality ng avanza ko as compared to my previous car Getz 1.1. for only 400k + you get your money's worth.

pwede po ba ako mag demand ng change unit given the probs/issues i encountered?

kung hindi nila palitan ang unit, pwede po ba ako mag demand na lang ng refund?

na-iinis kasi ako sa sales agent, parang ako pa ang may utang na loob dahil nagawan nya ng paraan (kuno) makakuha ng dark gray before mag price increase this march. at nakakaasar ang mga sagot nya sakin na talagang ganun daw ang avanza without even telling me na chechekin nila (kung hindi ko pa i-insist).

sir please give me your insights/comments/suggetions.

salamt ng marami!
