2014 Suzuki swift 1.2

[basti08]

Pricing is said to be 608K for the manual transmission and 648K for the automatic.
Which is a steal if you ask me, but it will still depend on the final specification. If it looks much like the 1.2L variants sold in other countries with dual airbags and ABS even with puny looking steel rims, then this is a better proposition than a Mirage.
It is a legit subcompact and has a proper engine with the right cylinder count (4cyl vs the rough 3cyl in the Mirage). Plus Swift has always been a good handler. The added practicality of the more efficient smaller engine plus the price slash will add more appeal to it.

"Currently the Japanese automaker offers the Swift hatchback with a 1.4-liter VVT engine for the Philippine market, mated to either a 5-speed manual transmission or a 4-speed automatic."

1. The current Suzuki Swift is nice car, easy to drive, powerful engine yet economical in terms of fuel consumption, except the underpinnings which is very weak. I claimed a warranty to my 2 year old Swift which clocked only 12k kms during the warranty claim. Wheels Erod replaced the steering rack & pinion as well as the left & right stabilizer links. Alas, after 2 weeks the same problem occurred.

Looking for a right solution to the same problem, which im not satisfied what the casa did, I scouted for an under chassis specialist. Findings: the suspension bushings are broken, tie rod ends are loose, rack ends are loose & the stabilizer links are also broken. Since I don't want to spend so much on the car I love to drive, yet I tried the (polyurethane) injection system, if this will not work no harm in trying as I plan to replace it anyway.

Result: when I test drove the car after the polyurethane injection, dejavu! the car went back to its original tight as well as the "thug" sound was present again as the Swift rides on a sporty side. Twice I drove it back from Manila to Morong, Bataan in a week's time, the suspension is still as tight as day one I had it repaired.

2. Suzuki Philippines. you have a very good car yet the dealership service sucks! Hindi ko alam kung sinasadya nilang wag ayusin ng tama ang mga sasakyan para maka claim ang dealership sa Suzuki ng maraming warranties kasi kumikita sila on that process, labor as well incentives? correct me if im wrong. PMS labor & parts are sooo steep as well! Top up for a 5k kms (since im using synthetic), they're charging 5.1k kung palit spark 6.1k? mahal pa sa T86 ko? well..

But I love my Swift!
