2012 Chevrolet Spin

[LeeAiken0311]

nasa likod yung hose na nagkaroon ng leak. kaya di ko nakita ng personal. try ko picturan kapag ibinalik ko na for replacement. sa ngayon nilagyan lang muna ng temporary seal.

Sir, saan daw yung leak sa intercooler? Balak ko i-blank ang EGR ang problem ko is hindi ko makita, parang nakatago sa heatshield ng turbo.

Wala ako makita manual netong JTD engine baka may expert na pwede makapag share. Eto yung exploded view of similar engine, i guess this is VGT version. Yung pipe nagcross i think is an oil pipe return for the oil cooler so hindi eto yung EGR pipe.

^ Vacuum gauge is a very common tool, i think sa wastegate actuator yun ginagamit. Sa compressor side ng turbo may built-in boost sensor kaya possible na yung smoke ay due to overfuelling/ wrong a/f mix. Walang MIL sa dash when it happened?

Just a thought of sharing na rin baka may maputulan ulit ng belt at malayo sa casa, eto yung belt size:

6PK 1517 for main serpentine
4PK 773 for AC compressor

May naririnig ako parang pulley sound idk kung eto yung dahilan, ang higpit ng belt halos walang deflection sa center..

Hi guys... Regarding po sa mga concerns nu na pblik blik sa casa sa pagpapa ayos, try nu report sa DTI.. Make a complain as we have a "lemon law"...

One more thing pa, check nu yung battery nu if bloated.. Ngpalabas kasi yung indonesia ng notice na meron defects yung battery(ac delco) at free po magpachange...

Useful info if there are moderators around kindly pin this post. We already purchased our 3rd unit of Spin let see if any one of them encounters the turbo leak or any more broken fanbelts.

^ BTW that is for the oilers,the gassers i think have different drive belts.

Meron na ba may service manual dito? Hirap kumuha sa NA at EU sites para sa JTD engine..

Have it scanned or use stand-alone monitor.

My 2nd scanguage II will arrive soon, will mount to mid-dash since LS doesnt have fuel computer. This is a better optioni for CRD engines, i think.

For those with petrol Spins, what RON fuel do you use? Service guy at Chevy Balintawak told me to use 91 RON; manual says 95 RON is recommended.

And I notice a fair amount of break dust on the front wheels. Is this normal?

Thanks!

We use xtra unleaded 93, the manual says minimum is 91, recommended is 95. For your peace of mind, use 95.

According to some other owner normal yan, kasi nga disk break sa harapan and drum break sa likod. Although di ko pa napapansin sa min yan, ka kukuha lang kasi namin.

I actually use 95, as recommended in the manual. Thing is, when i asked the service advisor when I got my unit, ang specific instruction niya is to use 91 RON and not 95 RON. Inulit ko pa ang tanong, and he insisted na 91 lang, not 95. Better to rely on the manual naman siguro.

Re: break dust, inoobserbahan ko pa rin. Baka mabawasan kapag fully broken in na ang mga parts.

[dale323]

About brake dust. Evident sa akin yan. Lagi kasi nauunang madumihan yung harap na gulong compared sa likod.

[resty89]

Normal lang po yung brake dust, all new chevy units are using ceramic type of breakpads kaya mas mabilis mag generate ng dust compared sa traditional na brakepads.. ito rin ang sa palagay ko eh cause kung baket medyo maingay ang spin pag nagbreak ka specially kapag malamig ang panahon.. pero once nagamit mo na sa long distance wala na rin yung ingay..

Hi

Tanong ko lang po ..matipid po ba sa gas consumption ung Chevrolet Spin Automatic-Gas? Thanks.

[brightfame]

Ask ko lang po which dealership ma recommend nyo na good service before and after sales? I live in Bacoor pero work sa Makati so sana yung malapit doon or on the way.

[12vdc]

Installing Mitsuba with only 1 splice(at original horn harness)..









Bonk! Bonk!

Question to those that have the Spin AT variant. Meron na bang nagpunta ng Tagaytay or Baguio na fully loaded? How was your experience? Hindi ba hirap ang Spin AT paakyat?

Salamat po.

Using LTZ AT, 8 including the driver, went up to kennon road. Hindi naman hirap, kahit sa mga iskinita ng Baguio, alam mo siguro kung gaano sila ka tarik minsan. Kahit overtaking sa MacArthur Highway, I'm surprised I can overtake like that with a 1.5 engine fully loaded.

Thanks, BratPAQ. Now I can attest to that. I was able to test drive a Spin AT last Saturday sa Pasig. Dinaan ko talaga sa may St. Paul Pasig para masubukan ko sa akyatan. I was with my wife & 2 kids, plus the Chevy SA. What's your average FC pala? City, HW & mixed. Wala naman ba issues sa aftersales ng Chevy?
