2003 Fit in Philippines
 
Bought a used Fit Monday. So far very pleased.

Auto Trans
1.3 engine
aftermarket wheels - look like 15x6.5 or 7's, with 195-50/15 tires.
115,000 km

I am familiar with auto mechanics and brakes, although working on it in my parking spot will be difficult. 4 inches on both sides with the driver's door opening into a walkway, and only 2 inches from the nose to the gate when closed.

But I have no documentation on the car such as the owners manual would cover, such as:
What oil to use?
Tire pressures? - ah found the decal, but on the passenger side and all japanese writing.
Brake fluid? Dot 3 or 4 I am hoping. The current fluid is dirty grey, so in need of a flush. Brakes are spongy but work well.
Radiator coolant type? Current coolant also looks like it could use changing.

Any help would be useful.

I am from California, and driving in the Philippines is so completely different. In the provinces you are limited in speed by the 'trikes' - 175cc or less motorcycles with semi-enclosed sidecars. As you can imagine, they don't move very fast, and they won't pull over for you. Most of them will get up to 25 kph if you're lucky. Coming up behind one while you're doing 70 is a big slowdown.
But so far, so good.
