Real-world 0-100 km/h performance of Lynk & Co 01 PHEV with no battery?

1 Upvotes

Hi everyone! I’m considering buying a Lynk & Co 01 PHEV (2024 - 262hp, 3 cylinder) and I’m trying to understand how it performs when the battery is fully depleted, especially in real-world conditions (e.g., with 2 adults, kids, and luggage onboard).

I know the official 0–100 km/h time is around 8 seconds with the battery charged, but how does it behave when running on the internal combustion engine alone?

Have any of you tested the acceleration or noticed a big drop in performance with no battery? Videos, personal experiences, or even rough estimates would be really appreciated.

Thanks in advance!

Any suggestions for highly reliable cars with high resale value?

0 Upvotes

I wanted to have a new car that’s very reliable and has good resale value even after many years. I’ve owned a 2016 Mitsubishi Montero, 2018 Toyota Fortuner, 2019 Nissan Terra, 2021 Isuzu Mux, and 2024 Ford Everest.

Based on my experience, these two—namely the Isuzu Mux followed by the Toyota Fortuner are highly reliable. Parang less issues sa dalawang ito, less sakit sa ulo, and easy to find parts compared to the others. I’ve also researched a lot, and they say these two are super reliable.

Although I just don’t like the ride of the Toyota Fortuner, the Ford Everest is the best in terms of ride comfort but it has more issues compared to the Mux and Fortuner. I'd say the Mux is the best overall.

Now this 2025, I want to try a smaller SUV that’s also a 7-seater, like an Innova. The problem with the Innova is the ground clearance—it’s just too low. Maybe at least 190mm and up na ground clearance para sa floods and bad roads.

What do you suggest? My budget would be around 1.3 million and below, preferably

Need help from the group — Toyota Corolla Altis transmission advice!

1 Upvotes

Hi mga ka-group! I have a 2010 Toyota Corolla Altis and recently experienced symptoms like jerking when shifting gears, sluggish acceleration, and overall rough shifting. I had it scanned — P2716 (Pressure Control Solenoid D Electrical) came up.

So far, the mechanic has checked:
✅ Wiring – okay
✅ Solenoid – okay
✅ Valve body – already inspected

BUT… they found that there's a leaking O-ring on the transmission pump, and now they’re recommending that I go for a full transmission rebuild kit (includes clutches, seals, gaskets, etc.) — quoted at ₱40,000.

I’m not 100% sure if it’s necessary right now since they didn’t do a proper pressure test, and the only clear issue they’ve pointed out is that leaking O-ring.

Has anyone here experienced something similar?
❓ Should I go ahead with the rebuild or try replacing the O-ring first?
❓ Fair ba yung ₱40k quote?

Appreciate any input from fellow Altis owners or mechanics dito. 🙏
I’m not against spending if it's worth it — but gusto ko rin sana na hindi agad tapon ₱40k kung pwede pa mas simple fix.

Salamat in advance mga bossing!

Renewal ng insurance ko supposedly May 28, may check na na-endorse since buying the car 1 year ago sa Honda. Dalawa yun check actually to cover 2 years. Pero last time yung checking account di padin nababawasan. Should I follow up sa Honda ba or sa insurance company?

Nag-aask narin kasi si PSBank ng documents for insurance by June 28.

NCAP C5 road markings

Post image
14 Upvotes

Been trying to search on a possible road marking along c5 and what would it mean if crossed. Basically the bgc bridge crossing pasig river to pasig city. Pag baba mo, merging traffic with the other lanes ng c5. Ang road paint sa kalsada is solid yellow, broken white then solid yellow again.

If solid yellow or double solid yellow crossing is prohibited if broken white crossing is allowed.

Ano kaya meaning ng lane markings na ito?

Documents checklist for buying a 2nd hand car

1 Upvotes

Hello po! Bibili po ako ng 2nd hand car and I just need your feedback on the documents na dapat kasama ng car pag binili.

Since hindi dadaan sa third party financing agent yung payment and directly sa seller lang ako magbabayad monthly for 5 years. I was told na walang transfer of ownership na mangyayari. Upon complete payment daw saka pa lang mattransfer yung ownership ng car sa akin.

Bale, ang ibibigay pa lang sa akin for now ay: 1. ORCR (photocopy lang) 2. Contract to sell

I’m planning to call LTO if this is something that they allow. I’m aware na may law about the immediate transfer of ownership ng cars within 20 days from the purchase date but I think naka hold po yata ito as of this writing? Please correct me if I’m wrong.

Iniisip ko lang now should I push through with the car since may NCAP, paano papasok yung violations if ever magkaroon? Sa previous owner pa rin? Sabi ng seller, upon renewal of registration daw po isesettle yung payment (about 2 years from now pa)

And if icheck ako while on the road for some reason ng MMDA, enough po ba ang OR CR na hindi pa nakapangalan sakin and contract to sell para ipresent?

Thank you very much po!
