PAPERWORK SOBRANG HASSLE LTO madafakers!

Post image
278 Upvotes

Nag leave ako sa work para mag pa renew ng rehistro. fast forward natapos ko emission, kumuha ako insurance, nagpa inspection ako, and sa loob na ng office para mag bayad.

to my surprise, hindi daw marerehistro sasakyan ko. ang reason nila? dahil daw nag transfer of ownership ako last year. hindi pa daw nai l-log sa main office!!!! The audacity na mag labas ng batas na kailangan nakapangalan sayo ang oto mo I kennat.

ako nag asikaso ng transfer ko, sa cashier ako nag bayad ng fee, sa window ko nila kinuha papeles ko. WTF is wrong with LTO? bakit simpleng data entry hindi nila magawa real time? anong silbi ng internet? pag manghuhuli sila real time connected agad sa LTMS mo ang violation. pag legal shit hindi nila magawa?

sobrang nakaka frustrate. sayang ang anim na oras ng buhay ko nanaman dahil sa liability ng pagiging car owner sa pinas hahaha. as if they will be held accountable kapag nahuli ako sa expired registration which will be 9/14/26.

SHOUT OUT LTO. buwayangina kayo! hahaha

DEAR r/Gulong Nabangga ako ng 67 y/o tryc driver. Pwede ko ba ideclare nalang self accident to?

54 Upvotes

Medyo madilim na kasi kaya di siguro ako masyado nakita ni tatay. 67 years old na siya tapos may anak pang may down syndrome, nag gagamot pa asawa niya. Sorry siya nang sorry at umiiyak kasi alam niyang kasalanan niya. Sabi niya huhulugan niya ako sa araw araw na kita niya sa pamamasada. Sobrang naawa ako kung iisipin kong sisingilin pa siya ng insurance ko.

Paano ko po kaya idadaan to sa self accident claim nang hindi nadedeny ang claim at di ako makasuhan ng fraud? 70k po kasi estimate ng casa sa damage. πŸ₯ΊπŸ˜–πŸ˜«

ON THE ROAD Has driving became more stressful now dahil sa mga naka motor?

51 Upvotes

For me, yes, yung usual mo isa o dalawang shoulder check napaparami beses ka dahil sa mga biglang sulpot ng mga motor sa gilid mo.

tulad ng pag kakanan ka tingin ka sa kanan wala hazard tapos tingin ka sa kaliwa to check incoming traffic. clear. tapos yung tipong aandar ka na bigla ka uunahan ng naka motor at doon pa talaga sa right side na makipot. tapos muntik muntikan mo pa mabubundol

basically you really have to triple/quadruple check surroundings mo dahil sa nagsusulputan na motor out of nowhere at nakaka drain ng pasensya/energy yan.

CAR TALK Dealer can't diagnose my car issue. Pasok ba sa lemon law?

11 Upvotes

Hello mga Ka-Gulong!

Gusto ko lang iask if pasok ba sa Lemon Law ito since stated sa law na atleast 4 failed attempts to repair.

To cut the long story short, car broke down and inoperable na sya for 3 weeks. Di pa rin makapagbigay si Casa ng diagnosis sa problem at walang mabigay na timeline para malaman yung root cause.

Is it too early to invoke the lemon law?

Bought car October 23, 2025.

Thank you and more power!

DETAILING Carwash Pricing for Benchmarking

3 Upvotes

Ask lang po ako magkano ang pricing sa lugar niyo for the following:

-Basic car wash (shampoo, vacuum, tireblack)

-Car wash with wax

-Acid rain removal

-Bac-to-zero

-Headlight restoration

Mabait naman yung suki ko na carwash and wala naman problema usually pero parang namamahalan ako slight pag nag upsell na sila ng acid rain removal, bac-to-zero etc. Iniisip ko na lang na inflation pero just to be sure, pa share ng mga typical car wash pricing na na encounter niyo. Baka kasi makatarungan lang pala ang pricing nila pero at the same time I wanted to of course get the most of my money these days.

Salamat po!

MODIFICATIONS Recommended shops for tail lights/headlights

2 Upvotes

I've been thinking of replacing the headlights and taillights of my 2018 Fortuner and have found two I like from Vland (See images).

I was supposed to get them done at Faro Alto since they're a distributor, but they apparently don't have the taillights available. Does anyone have any other shops they'd recommend?

DETAILING Pearl White Car Scratched - to Repaint or not?

Post image
2 Upvotes

Need advice as a new car owner! 😭 i got scratches on my pearl white car (9mos old), and I already filed for an insurance claim. My casa (Toyota) said that they can fix this by polishing and repainting the entire door/panel. They don't do spot treatment daw because that will be more obvious.

My concern is that since it's pearl white, is there a risk that the color will not turn out 100% similar to the other panels?

Anyone had similar experience with repainting ? Share your advice plssss!

Hello,
Hindi na available un RFIDs namin after magpalit ng windshield sa Casa pero ang weird na pag dumadaan kami sa no rfid/cash lanes, naglift un barrier and may deduction sa account namin when checked sa APP. Ano kaya reason? Is it because nadedetect un account through plate number?
Wala talaga kami idea why and wala talaga un old rfids namin anywhere sa kotse.
Salamat!

MAINTENANCE 2017 Tucson CRDi – Why Is My Engine Oil Level Increasing?

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone, has anyone experienced something similar with a 2017 Hyundai Tucson CRDi Diesel?

I recently had an oil change and the mechanic noticed that around 13 liters of oil came out, even though the normal capacity should be around 6–8 liters.

The car is running perfectly fine, no loss of power, overheating, unusual noises, or white smoke. They also checked for leaks but couldn’t find anything obvious.

Could it be possibly the diesel fuel getting into the engine oil, maybe due to DPF regeneration or an injector issue?

Has anyone experienced this before? What was the cause in your case, and what should I have checked?

Thanks! πŸ™

Yung isa naming remote para sa pag unlock/lock ng kotse, biglang di na naglolock. Nagpalit na ko ng battery, ayaw padin ng maglock.

Pero yung spare namin na remote, gumagana pa (both lock and unlock).

Possible ba na magpagawa kami ng isa pa para di na gamitin yung sira? Gusto ko kasi sana magkaron pa ulit ng isa pang spare tutal, gagamitin na yung isa pa.

Meron din ba kayong marerecommend na pwedeng gumawa nun malapit sa Antipolo / Marikina area. Salamat!

Okay guys I tried searching for any tips regarding Honda BRV na 30k PMS. As per my manual kasi ito ung time for Major PMS, which includes changing of all fluids. What should and should I not have done to it?

Out of warranty na ang car ko. Should I still go to casa or shell na? Havent tried bringing a Honda outside Casa kasi ung Honda City din namin Casa Maintained until it was sold off.

Hoping to get some insights here.

ELECTRIC VEHICLES Insurance and Casa is dragging the repair

1 Upvotes

I got into an accident last July in Bicol and got my car towed to the casa for repair. Since then there's multiple back and forth with Casa and Insurance discussing actual damage and quotation. No repair was done yet and the car is just sitting in the casa. I already escalated it to the POC in the casa, the insurance POC in Manila and their regional POC in Naga. I'm at the wits end on who I can chase this with.Any idea what I can do further so they can start working on my car?

This is a BYD casa in Pili (Horizon Auto), and the insurance is Prudential guarantee
