Hi. It's just my first time to take care of a diesel engine vehicle...

I have an FX with 2c-t engine....

At first, it really runs very well.. smooth acceration. I usually change my change my oil/filter 4-5T kms... between 6mos to 12mos fuel filter change.

Now, I'm noticing that i'm lacking torque, especially whenever I have a number of people on board. I also just get around 7.5kms/L on city driving.

It's been just about 4000kms since I last had my calibration/nozzle replacement.

What seems to be the problem? I'm monitoring the oil level, but it seems ok... I'm loosing some but on a very minimal level, which I believe mo be normal.

Could it be that I already need valve clearance adjustments (which I honestly can't remember when I had it last checked)? What other things do I need to check?

Can you guys recommend a good shop preferably Makati area...
