2nd Gen Fortuner vs MUX

[ervinelim]

ito rin pinagpipilian ko.... looks wise halos pareho naman sya sa akin, parehong mabangis ang dating
concern ko is yung engine ng Toyota since someone mentioned na bago ang engine ng fort, nako problema na naman yan!!! I have a 1st gen fortuner d4d and I suffered from its engine problems. ang problema kasi sa Toyota NUON (I dunno ngayon) is parang ayaw nila magadmit ng recall! pag dinala mo sa casa chaka nila sasabihin sayo na may problema & komo after warranty na nila natuklasan yung d4d defect ayun. Which in hindsight dapat nilaban kona di bayaran, wala lang ako time nuon. After that naman my 2006 fort is still ok, nasa akin pa sya ngayon. So if fort ang bibilhin ko, I guess dapat maghintay pa ako ng 1 or 2yrs para kung ano man ang defect e masolusyonan na muna nila.
MUx I like the porma but im not so familiar with the Isuzu brand. yan na lang ang di ako nagkakaroon e. pero from what I heard maganda naman daw ang engine ng Isuzu (?)
Interiior wise, mas roomier for me ang old fort vs mux (as nakita ko sa display)
I dunno if both have navigation. or kung ano sound system nila, I still have to find out....

pero ngayon wait and see muna ako....

Montero, parang tulo ng kandila ang ilaw sa likod.... not my type

ford uhhhh

Nissan xtrail, baka magmahal ulit gasoline e

Don't buy Montero, nahuli sila sa isang scandal nanaman for faking fuel data.

My family from Japan even said, Japanese never buy Mitsubishi because of its dodgy reputation.

Sorry for double Post!

Ito rin problem ko bro.

2nd Gen Fortuner has transmission problems that cause jerking feeling while driving. Pero all in all, maganda in looks ang Fortuner pero barebones sobra for the price. No reverse cam or even sensor, Manual ang aircon, Yellow Fabric sa G (Really ugly, imo), Still Insert Key Ignition sa G(Arte lang).

MU-X naman, Okay talaga. No issues since tried and tested but the Euro 2 Engine and medyo not so cool Interior and Exterior ang problema. Pero at least you get a lot of stuff ( leather seats, push start, auto climate control, reverse cam, cruise control, hill start assist, etc) compared to the Fortuner.

Nagdecide na talaga ako bumili ng Fortuner but when I heard about the transmission problems, Ayaw ko ng repeat sa D4D issue ng Fortuner dati. So I'm currently undecided. Should I just gamble and buy Fortuner for the looks and wish that umok or buy the Just OK MU-X with more features and leather seats but ISUZU brand?

HAY!

Matagtag ba ang MU-X vs Fortuner? Sana may makagive insights.

Mine is mux, space kc ung need ko and for the price, panalo tlga and d rin matagtag basta tama ung tire pressure. Yan ung check mo kung mag test drive ka. Last january ko lng sya nakuha and so far ok sya except s speaker and engine noise. Or d lng tlga ko sanay s diesel since honda ung last ko. If you ever decide to get mux eh better to wait the recent upgrade, my cruise control na, hill start assist and ung interior and sounds eh nabago n rin. Exterior n add lng is ung spoiler. Last april 21 lng ung official release dto satin. This might change your mind.

Bago palang mux 3.0 namin, sa experience ko sa mga natakbo ko, sorsogon to nueva ecija puno talaga ang sakay ko. Halos lahat sila kumportable hangang 3rd row mga tulog lahat. Hehe kahit kelan hindi ako nabitin sa lusutan kahit paahon. Sobra lamig pa ng aircon kahit day trip kami, lahat sila nakakumot haha. At pinakagusto ko sobrang tipid sa diesel! Wala ako masabi.

Na test drive mo bro ang updated mux? Was it quieter inside with engine idling?

[Djerms]

We both have the mux 2.5lsa and the fort 2.4v. Mas maganda interior ng fort pero for me mas timeless ang exterior ng mux. To each his own. My 8tkms ownership of the mux didnt give me any problems. Walang pag aalinlangan dalhin sa probinsya di tulad ng bulok ko na ranger 2.2 walang kakwenta kwenta talaga. Dibadaan sa tech at macho image wala naman binatbat.

Yung fortuner pala namin 2.4v may nararamdaman din jerking issue during slow down. Birthing pains being all new daw. Sana nga kasi yung 2015 fort naman namin being an outgoing model wala nang problema up to now except for the harsh ride na parang mag topple over. Yung new for maganda na ang ride. Not as roomy as the mux sa 2nd row tho.

Practical choice mux kung pang baragan. Pero kung nag aala mayaman image ka ok ang fort. Pero parang kawawa interior ng fort sa bukid. Lol.

MU-X have a harsh ride with tire pressure at 35psi but if you follow the 29PSI it will give you better riding comfort and don't expect Land Cruiser Prado Comfort on the MUX and Fortuner when I bought the Mu-x anlayo talaga ng ride comfort compared sa Prado given it's five link suspension

True. The 29psi recommended is the sweet spot. Not Land Cruiser Prado quality but definitely better than the 4 link of the Fort. The New Fort however has improved the comfort levels tremendously.

Oh. MUx pala has a typical noisy isuzu engine vs the new 2.4 Fortuner. Pero its more consistent. The 2.4 GD engine still has an unbalanced sound from acceleration.
