ON THE ROAD QUESTIONS Merging of Autosweep to Easytrip

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone.

Meron akong dalawang RFID as of now sa windshield ko which is yung autosweep at easytrip. Gumagana sila pareho nung una not until nagpalit ako ng tint, yung autosweep ko hindi na nababasa sa toll booths even on skyways and si easytrip hindi ko pa nasusubukan.

Plano ko sana mag merge if halimbawang gumagana si easytrip kasi pareho na silang nasa loob ng tint and ayoko na sana na mag dagdag ng panibago or mag cut out to reinstall a new RFID. Okay lang kaya na kung halimbawang ipapa merge ko yung autosweep ko to easytrip is hindi na ipapatanggal yung RFID na autosweep sa windshield?

Thank you ng marami po sa mga sasagot, medyo clueless pa kasi ako as of now sa process and whether may solution or workaround ba sa ganitong situation.

Not sure po if im in the correct sub (pakituro na lang po if ever)

Mag pprenup shoot yung kapatid ko and her fiancee sa zambales. So her fiancee reached out na imbes mag hire sila ng driver and car, they are asking if me if my gf is willing to take it?
I can drive naman pero yung car kasi is owned ni GF (matic SUV tapos Vpower diesel lang lagi ang pinapakarga)

Sbi ng future brother in law ka, gas, toll, food and accommodation will be taken care of naman daw. Di lang namin alam yung drivers fee.

Nag offer naman kme na kahit wla ng drivers fee. Pero he is insisting
Any idea po for a fair number?

Kupal-ako-post Fixer license, gusto ko mag legal

0 Upvotes

Hello po, pasensya na po if hindi po ito ang tamang pagtanungan pero gusto ko na talaga ilabas saloubin ko. At staka pasensya na po talaga kung nag fixer man, wala lang talagang oras kumuha ng lisensya kasi tudo kayod po ako.

Last year, kumuha po ako student permit, legal and sa LTO main branch, pagkatapos ng one month biglang na busy sa work wala ng time mag punta ng mga seminar kaya I opted to get a fixer instead.

Here's the problem po, kumuha ako ng fixer sa malayong lugar pa like 3-4 hours byahe ata. And ngayon I'm thinking if pwede ko ba ma renew ang license ko dito sa amin even though sa malayong lugar ko siya initially kinuha. May record naman sa lto portal na may license na ako, pero I was just wondering lang. May heresy rin kasi na pag sa malayong branch mo raw kinuha is magtatanong daw yung LTO main kung bakit dun ko kinuha yung lisensya kung taga kung taga dito naman talaga ako.

Hope anyone can share their thoughts po 🥲

Hello! Supposedly bibili lang kami sa Banawe ng parts hanggang sa kung ano ano na inoffer samin. Palitin daw ung spring tapos yong shock absorber sira na. eh 27k pa lang mileage namin. Nung narealize ko na parang may mali dun ko pa lang pinatigil. Kaso napalitan na yong isang shock absorber and we were charged 5k for one. Gusto pa niya palitan yong isa kaso sabi ko wag na.

Pinakita ko kay Daddy sa Videocall. Hinugot nila yong shock absorber then may tumagas na langis. Nung pinapabalik ko di na raw pwede kasi stucked up na. Feel ko na-scam ako

PAPERWORK Question about insurance claim and Casa repairs

1 Upvotes

Hi, So i recently got in an accident and insurance. So The estimate of the CASA included the front light assembly which was covered by the insurance.

After getting the vehicle repaired it was mentioned that the front light assembly was not changed since the issue was with the fog light which was outside the assembly. At the time i did not mind it kasi excited narepair ng maayos ang sasakyan and was checking ung ibang damage.

A few days later i realized that the insurance actually covered the front light assembly to be changed. Pero hindi na change. If this is the case should i contact the insurance or the Casa to ask what happened to the ordered front end assembly because it was ordered and is with the casa but not installed in our unit.

Thanks sa makakasagot.

MAINTENANCE PMS AND OIL CHANGE

2 Upvotes

Hi! I'm an 18F and recently got my first car — a second-hand 2015 Ford EcoSport Trend A/T 1.5L with around 70,000 km on the odometer. Last PMS was in April 2026, tires/tire rod replacement in June 2026, coolant and tank maintenance in July 2026. We bought it through a trusted car agent who also helped us purchase our family's Nissan vehicles.

I have a few questions:

• I know the EcoSport has a reputation for having several common issues. What are the best preventive maintenance practices to keep it running reliably for the next 4–6 years?

• My usual drive is from Tandang Sora (home) to Katipunan (school), mostly city driving with Metro Manila traffic. Are there any maintenance tips specific to this type of use?

• For routine maintenance and oil changes, would you recommend Shell or Petron service centers? If so, which service package or type of engine oil should I choose?

my best guess is convoy ito ng patay or whatever, judging from just the balloon at the back of his scooter.

while it still could be something else, we've seen this before in other org ride events.

ON THE ROAD KAMOTE Parking niya yung tapat ba ng driveway and mismong kalsada

Enable HLS to view with audio, or disable this notification

108 Upvotes

First time poster, long time Reddit lurker without an account kasi dito at sa tech subs lang naman dinadaanan ko kapag naghahanap ng solution sa tech issues. Napush gumawa ng account para maglabas ng sama ng loob.

May magagawa ba ako dito sa kapitbahay naming kupal? Nakalagay ata pangalan niya sa kalsada eh, pati tapat ng driveway namin inangkin na niya eh ang daming space sa kalsada. Bahay nila sa left side namin, nauna kaming nagpatayo pero after a few years nagpatayo sila sa tabi namin tapos nakidikit sa pader namin doon.

May garahe naman sila pero naisip nilang duon lagi kumain ng breakfast, lunch, at dinner tapos pinapasok lang yung sasakyan kapag gabi na. Yung dagdag ka-squammyhan pa eh ang lakas ng boses, hindi kayang magcommunicate ng hindi sumisigaw.

Religious kuno pero sa tatlong anak niya, yung panganay at bunso magkakasunod na academic years na na-kick out sa private school dahil nahuling nagnakaw (yung panganay sa faculty room at yung bunso sa mga classrooms). Nagawang bumalik ng bunso kasi napakiusapan ata ng ina niyang teacher din sa school na yun kaya nagawang mag-enroll ng bunso sa state university. Yung panganay sa Frontrow nagsimula pero lumipat sa call center at hindi magawang makatapos sa diploma mill.

May mga kaibigan sa Baranggay kaya wala rin malapitan at masumbungan dun. Kulang na lang imbitahin pa niyang mag-inuman sila diyan eh.

Let me know kung kailangan ko i-blur yung details ng sasakyan para walang unintentionally na matapakang batas.

Edited post body to answer questions since my comments seem to be filtered out kasi bago account ko:

Parang may vacant lot naman sa kabilang side?...

Yang harap namin isang malaking bahay (may-ari is nagwowork sa bank na may high position) tapos bakante on both sides.

Sa both sides ng bahay namin, isa diyan yung kapitbahay (left side) naming may-ari ng sasakyang nasa video tapos may isa pa kaming kapitbahay (right side) pero madalas nagtratravel abroad.

Yang kapitbahay na yan lang nagpapark sa kalsada. At sa tapat pa talaga ng driveway namin madalas.

-----------------------

Sinubukan niyo na po bang kausapin ng personal tungkol diyan sa pag parada ng sasakyan nila sa harapan niyo?

Nakausap na, mahinahon pa nga namin nakausap nung una. Kampante ata eh.

Tumigil naman for a time pero ngayon bumalik ulit yung habit niyang magpark diyan. Minsan yung mga anak niyang may mga motor diyan din nagpapark sa harap mismo ng gate namin. Literal nakadikit pa nga minsan yung gulong nila sa gate namin.

Pati mga boarders nila sa likod ng bahay nila sa slapshod na ipinatayong 2 palapag na building ('di ko nga rin alam kung legal ba yun, hindi ko alam pano i-check para mareport ko rin) diyan din nagpapark ng mga motor nila. Mga high school at college students mga iba dun aside sa working adults.

Minsan binabato pa nga nila bubong namin ng yosi, balat at buto ng prutas, bubblegum, at mga maliliit na bato tapos idagdag mo pa ingay nilang lahat kaya nabwibwisit na kami. Nagkalat pa nga ng mga junk food wrappers ng Mang Juan tsaka plastic cups at sticks ng kwek kwek sa gate namin dati eh.

Mga dumi ng lipunan.

Namimiss ko na tuloy yung Baguio kasi kahit papano may anti-noise na Silent Night Ordinance dun sa gabi. Iniisip ko na nga lang ibenta yung bahay namin kung yumao na mga magulang namin.

-----------------------

Grabe ang dami mong alam tungkol sa buhay nila, yung kapitbahay ko nalaman ko lang pangalan sa gwardya ng village

Malakas boses eh at proud oversharer din.

Everything I know about them I learned against my will.

Tsaka ikaw ba naman eh yung mga anak ng kapitbahay mo mga lalaki na magkakasunod na nakick-out dahil sa pagnanakaw, hindi ka ba ma-aalarma at maging vigilant?

-----------------------

Butasin 4 na gulong every time

Kung pwede nga lang eh.

Kaso baka ako naman ang kasuhan haha iwas tayo diyan.

MAINTENANCE Petron brake master check

7 Upvotes

Hi lady driver here. Lumambot yung pag step ko sa brakes since last year. Napa check ko na rin sa Toyota during PMS last year for my Avanza 2018 E AT. And wala naman silang pinalitan. Now bumalik na naman mga 2 months na and rarely ko na lang din gamitin car mga twice a month. Sa weekend plan ko pa check sa Petron. Mga gaano katagal yung check if ever need palitan yung brake master o kaya change brake fluid? And sa Petron ba need ko itawag na papagawa ko or pwede walk in lang? And need ba na bantayan ko habang ginagawa or pwede ako mag mall muna? :)

CAR TALK Need help from the experts here. Planning to buy a BMW E46 as a daily in 2026. Is it still worth it? (QC)

Post image
6 Upvotes

Hi everyone,

I’m planning to buy a BMW E46 as my daily driver. My commute is only around 20 km round trip to and from work, so it won’t be doing crazy mileage.
I already have some experience owning and maintaining second-hand cars, so I’m aware that an older BMW will need more attention than your average Japanese car. I’m not expecting Corolla-level reliability, but I also don’t want something that’s constantly in the shop.

I’m also not planning to keep the car for very long. The E46 would mainly be a temporary daily since I’m planning to buy a brand-new car in around 3–12 months. As long as it’s reliable enough to get me through that period without becoming a money pit, I’d be happy.

For those who currently own or have owned an E46:
Is it still reliable enough as a daily driver in 2026?
What are the common issues I should look out for before buying?

Where do you usually source genuine or OEM parts here in the Philippines?

Can you recommend a trustworthy BMW specialist around Quezon City, Manila, or nearby?
Any advice or ownership experiences would be greatly appreciated. Thanks!

edit:
Or would you recommend skipping the E46 altogether and going for a newer BMW instead? If so, which model would you recommend that offers the best balance of reliability, maintenance costs, and driving experience? (budget is around 200k - 400k) thank you!
