Advice on Isuzu dealers

[kurt]

hi to all,

after much reading about the specs of available pickups, i have picked the d-max pickup truck as the one for me.

now for my second step, which dealer to visit for further info.
this will be my first encounter with isuzu.

I need your advice which isuzu dealer has the best after sales service (repairs, maintenance, prices etc.)

for me the purchase of the unit is the easy part as i believe myself a good negotiator and i know a lot about cars (with tsikot.com's help).

i want to be right the first time so picking the dealer that will take care of me and my vehicle is the priority.

I want to avoid horror stories about the dealer gave me a lemon.
The dealer has poor and/or expensive repair services.
The dealer has the most un-helpful customer service.
Things like this.

Can you point me to a dealer with a good reputation of treating their customers right.

thanks to all
eagerly awaiting your inputs

Sir, I PMed you - I have the same question. Can you respond back please with your suggestion. My Alterra is 1 year this month and I'm planning to have it serviced ASAP.

Thanks in advance.

any bad experience with isuzu commonwealth with regards to sales & service?
what about isuzu manila?

[boybi]

basta hwag sa mga inteco owned and operated dealers.

[kimpOy]

trust in boknoyDMAX2004
isuzu insider natin yan.

[boknoyxtrm2001]

ano raw kimpy

bakit BOKNOYDMAX na ako hahahahaha

[kurt]

hi,

im from marikina.
but i spend a lot of time in manila so i am looking to try isuzu manila.

i also frequent gapan-cabanatuan-san fernando areas (hence the need for diesel power).
hopefuly the dealer in manila will recognize the works of other sister dealers. as not to invalidate the warranty. (this is my belief, similar setup to toyota dealers)

thanks for your inputs

based sa experience ng fellow Isuzu club boys dito...

recommended shops are:
Isuzu Pasig along C5 corner Julia Vargas. oks daw kaya lang medyo taga sa singil.
Isuzu makati, oks din daw.


shops to avoid.
Isuzu inteco, pero dito ako nagpapaservice. dun ko kasi nakuha yung unit ko saka dun kami nakakuha ng credit line. kailangan bantayan mo sasakyan mo. Sa inteco balintawak pwede ka pasok sa service area. sa inteco quezon ave, di na daw pwede. Yung sa Cabanatuan and Pampanga (yata) are also owned by Inteco.
sabi nila, isuzu manila di rin daw maganda.

basta wag lang sa inteco.

congrats sa DMAX mo. sana sumali ka sa Isuzu Club ni master BoknoyXTRM2001.

San ang isuzu club. Im a very satisfied and proud owner of a TFR.

Ano po bang modelo yung TFR series? I'm quite sure of NKR and NPR series only. :D

just for me lang to, i suggest u don't buy an isuzu lalo na yung direct injection turbo engine cause it won't be able to take the low quality diesel we have here in manila. my trooper, 3 years lang, screwd na yung injectors n d cheap. 63k pesoses. my friend ganun din ang problem sa 99 trooper nya. plus louzy service ang isuzu!!!!!!!! exception of alabang.

[grey_ek]

inteco q.ave is the best place to get a headACHE!

KCBOY: our 2003 trooper had defective injectors... nagawa na kaya lang tataka ako bakit PUTI PARIN usok ng trooper namin minsan...

btw, read in the paper that SHELL has a low lead level compared to all the other petrol companies. don't know if this could help... recently transferred from petron to try it out.

[kurt]

will the new lower sulphur diesels change this injector problem or is it kind of an inherent defect with isuzu engines

wonder why isuzu and ford only give 2 year warranty on their pickups. and they are my top 2 choices for pickups.

[Jeepcruizerph]

OT:

Kcboy and grey_ek...ganon din ba problem sa mga bighorn sa subic? same engine ba ng local trooper?

[OTEP]

Yung mga 3.1 diesel na BigHorn hindi pa ata direct injection yun. Although less powerful sila at around 125 bhp.

[KCboy]

yung mga subic na big horn i think ok pa, they can take the cheap diesel **** u feed them, same as my pajero. just 1 to 2 years n ur injectors will f??k up again.

hi ,
i have a 98 isuzu ls pickup , i dont want to have it serviced sa casa becasue im sure its going to be expensive , any advise on where i can have it serviced? only for maintenance lang

thanks

[4JGtootsie]

If valve lash adjustments, brake cleaning and oil, fluid and filter changes sa gas station pwede. Sa QC sa Petron Timog ako kasido nila 4ja1, 4jb1 and 4jg2 similar design and most components are interchangeable.

[bossing47]

sir ok ba bumili at magpa service ng dmax sa Marcos Highway dito malapit sa sumulong? pagkalagpas ata ng sta lucia yun?

dun kasi ako malapit..

or dun sa isuzu along ortigas yung maliit na bagong bukas?
pagkalagpas ng greenhills ba yun?
