**inigo** · September 17th, 2003 04:12 PM

I just want to know if most starex has squeaky ride? mareremedyuhan b to? ok suspension when traveling on paved roads pero pag nalubak, d maganda pakingan. Someone told me to replace the bushings pero halos bago p un unit. Ano kaya maganda gawin. Another problem is, ano turbo puede ikabit s teranno? san may gumagawa? Thanks.

Turbo for Terrano? Get a surplus Terrano engine na lang with the turbo already attached para optimized ang internals at fuel delivery.

Yung squeak, just have someone drive while you sit in the back. The noise may just be coming from the seats or interior trim. Minsan kailangan higpitan ang mounting, siksikan ng konting foam, etc. Iba-ibang style. Hehehe.

Aling suspension ba maingay? The front suspension can be greased at most gas stations naman for around Php 14.00 - 25.00 per grease nipple.

We used to have that kind of sound when our unit was still new. Maganit po ang stabilizer bushings and even the suspension sets. Pina-sprayan ko lang lagi ng used oil ang front suspension para lubricated palagi. After 4 years of usage nawala naman ang ingay. Yun nga lang palitin na ang stabilizer bushings malaki na ang kain ng goma, lumalagatok na sound naman ngayon pag nalulubak.

Hindi talaga maasahan ang rubber bushing na gawa sa Korea.

Pati nga gulong hindi rin ako tiwala.

Pero OK na OK naman ang starex, palitan mo lang ang mga goma. ;)

Pati hose wag mo na asahan. Mahina ang Korean rubber talaga. Pero the rest of the vehicle is ok.

the squeak might be coming from the air con exhaust underneath the driver seat....sa may underchassis...

basta kami. wala kaming problema sa unit namin.
sulit sa amin ang gamit nun. pag magpalit siguro kami van, baka starex na lang uli.
este meron na pala sira, pero minor lang.
mahina na yung aircon.
hindi pa kasi napapaayos yung aux fan.
pero yung sa mga pang-ilalim, bushing lang ang kelangan paltan.
tapos nun ok na uli.

Thank you sa mga feedback. I've changed tires already, pero ganun pa rin. Any suggestion where I can have it checked?

Kung interior ang maingay, mahirap i-asa sa ibang tao iyan. Kailangan ikaw mismo sumakay (as a passenger) and search for the sounds as the unit is being driven.

Kung suspension, kahit siguro mechanics ni chieffy pwede i-diagnose iyan.
