Suzuki ALTO [ARCHIVED]

[meyshia]

i think maaksaya pa ang alto ko sa gas. medyo deflated nga ung isang tire sa driver's side, di ko naman alam dito sa small city ko kung meron nagkakarga ng hangin. but i also guess na ung aksaya ng gas is related sa clutch usage ko. Ok ba guys kung magclutch ka sabay break? di ba masisira ang clutch nun? i always thought kasi na engaging the clutch means saving fuel kasi parang napapahinga ang engine mo. i need your expert advise guys.

In my 44 yrs of driving experience, you extend the clutch life by not stepping on the pedal very often and only short durations except when there is eminent danger or deemed necessary. Besides, your engine helps in slowing down the vehicle, thus prolonging also the life of the brake system. This is called engine brake. It has become my habit of applying only the clutch when I'm on the verge of stopping (then quickly shift to neutral then release clutch) and only during shifting gears. On downhill during traffic, just stay on neutral, relax, and let gravity do the rolling of the car with slight brake applications if needed,... but not when you're on high speeds unless you are an expert on this. On uphill during traffic, use you handbrakes and stay on neutral while waiting for the "go" to relax your both feet. In short, never rest your foot on the clutch pedal while waiting for the traffic to move...that makes you a clutch driver. Just shift to neutral instead. I guess all this help also in improving your FC.
Enjoy your driving and have a great day!

Just had a 10tkm PMS in suzuki commonwealth. php2,9 lang inabot, semi-synthetic oil. bumili rin ako mud guard (php1,200), kaya lang di na nakabit, kasi iabot na ng 5pm. sabi ko sarili ko ok lang, ako na lang magkabit. di ko pala kaya. san/pano ba kinakabit yun (anliliit lang pala nun) ... ahehe ... paesnsya na for my ignorance...

wtf?!? ako sa makati nagpa-10k pms umabot ng more than 6k, tsktsk. sana pala nagtanong muna ko sa ibang casa para mas nakatipid. anyways sa feb 2011 na naman expired 3 yr warranty ko nde naman cguro aabot ng 15k odo ko nun ehehhe.

may tatanong nga pala ako. i bought my unit last feb 2008, i requested ending plate of 7 para thurs ako coding. tapos binigay na registration sticker sakin is 2007-2009 para daw mahabol yung feb-july 2008. so tama ba na next yr pa ko paparehistro?

bro musta, wala ka kasi nung May EB. anyway, 07-09 ang registration mo?? parang lugi ka doon ah, so ang kalalabasan this July ka na magpaparegister.

ako 08 model din, 2008-2010 ang registration ko so next year na ako magpaparegister.

ang dami kong nakikitang Alto talaga ngayon, and take note, pormado sila ha hehehe.

nope don't do that as a habit, clutch driver ang kalalabasan mo. kung gusto niyo mam, ilagay niyo nalang sa Neutral ang kambyo instead of nakababad lang sa pag-apak sa clutch.

so far, ok ba ang unit mo? i do wanted to purchase repoe'd cars from psbank kaya lang limited ang time namin and i think medyo matagal ang proseso because of bidding, right? can you please tell me about ur experience? i do want to know.

so far, wala naman problem..

para sakin, mabilis naman ang proseso sa pag-acquire sa psbank repo. i acquired my unit in cash.

i browsed first the available units in their website, then i went to the warehouse in pasig to see the unit. i fill-up the bid form and drop it in the drop box there. tanong mo sa personnel kung marami tumitingin sa unit para magka idea ka kung magkano ibibid mo, in my case, wala naman daw tumitingin pa sa unit na kursunada ko, kaya i bid the floor price.

a week after, i was informed that i won the bidding and advised to pay in any psbank branch. the next day the unit was released. a week after, i got the papers from psbank headoffice in makati.
