All New Isuzu MU-X // Alterra Next Generation

[macjr1115]

Have anyone notice a"brrr" sound and feel when odo is around 75kph and disappear at 80kph? Is this normal? Its not that very loud but still noticeable...
Thanks

[jon24m]

Naririnig ko rin minsan yun everytime i accelerate. marami ng question na ganyan sa thread na to pero wala parin nakakasagot kung ano nga yung tunog na yun.

[Ry_Tower]

gear oil agad? ayus ah.

Kaya nga, every 40K lang dapat yan. Tapos brake cleaner ang mahal din singil, every 20K naman need yan eh. May mga dealer talaga na madaya.

Tsaka VM Motori nga at hindi isuzu makina nang TB. Kahit pang-ilalim magkaiba TB at MuX. Okay ba boy 2gbuster!

[makelovenotwar]

Thanks sir!
Post ko yung breakdown nung 1500km pms ko tomorrow.

Yung sa 5000km pks naman, sa march14 ko pa ipapagawa. I-post ko din agad.

Taga na po yung 6K dahil sa add ons na normally di pa kasama sa 1.5K kms PMS (Gear oil and break cleaner).
Panu pa kaya yung kay Sir makelovenotwar na umabot ng 8K ! ! !

Eto yung sakin mga sir.

flushing - 415.18
multi z motor oil - 2,682.14
oil filter - 700.89
drain washer 40.18
ATF mobil 1 - 2,879.46
gear oil - 1,058.04
-----------------------------------
sub total: 7,789.89
VAT: 933.11
===================
GRAND TOTAL: 8,709.00

Parang dun sa ATF nagkatalo ah...

Based sa website ng isuzu phils (Periodic Maintenance Service - Isuzu Philippines), every n5,000 at 20,000kms dapat magpalit ng ATF. Di ko sure kung bakit 1,500kms pa lang ay pinalitan na yung sakin. Di ko pa din alam kung papalitan ba ulit yung ATF sa 5000km pms ko. Itatanong ko yang mga yan pagbalik ko sa casa. Update ko kayo mga sir.

Hi Mu-x owners,

Question lang mga sir tungkol sa recirculate air at fresh air buttons.
Anong color nung light na nandun sa buttons niyo kapag in-activate niyo?
Sakin, yung fresh air button ay green.
Pero yung recirculate air button ay RED. Tapos napapansin ko kahit na naka-activate yung recirculate air, may nakakapasok pa din na amoy usok/siga kapag napapadaan ako sa mausok na lugar. So ang feeling ko ay may ibig sabihin yung RED color nung light.

Any thoughts mga sir? TIA.

[kutangbato]

Yes. See below:

The Isuzu and Chevrolet partnership has been around for a while, given that General Motors used to own a stake in Isuzu. As a result, Chevrolet (under GM) and Isuzu share the platforms, parts and components used for the D-Max, Colorado, Trailblazer and the recently revealed MU-X..

Boy 2gbuser Ulitin mong basahin un inattached mo. Asan dito na isuzu engine ng chevrolet.
boy wag ka magbigay ng mga info dito na mali lalo na hindi ka sigurado sa dahilan na marami dito na baguhan o walang alam sa mga sasakyan. Yun nga marunong sa sasakyan based sa experience nila ang kinocontribute. Huwag naman un nagmamarunong. Babasahin na lang un article ng autoindustriya hirap pa intindihin then will give somehow a piece of his mind na parang ke galing.
What i dont like is that people here will somehow tend to believe na tama ata un info mo. We have to be responsible on what we post for the good of our dear tsikoteers.

Pareho tayo ng kulay sir i think walang meaning yung red. As per yung pumapasok na amoy, I experience it sometimes also but acceptable pa

I have a TB and its engine is not Isuzu whether designed or manufactured.

Powering the Chevrolet Trailblazer is a 2.8 liter Duramax diesel engine with VGT. It produces 180 hp at 3800 rpm and 470 Nm of torque at 2000 rpm. The engine is actually developed by Isuzu, and most probably will be used in the next generation Isuzu Alterra.

Again, TB's engines are NOT made by Isuzu.

"The engine was a joint design between GM and VM Motori several years ago but is now completely owned and used by GM in several global platforms. Although the Duramax name was created as a joint venture with Isuzu, the new engine is solely owned by GM, which no longer has a partnership with VM Motori after*Fiat finalized its purchase*of the diesel engine company last month."

Hehe. Because a blog is more believable than a major magazine / website? Hehehe.

Sucks when manufacturers relabel engines they've bought from suppliers or other manufacturers. Makes it hard for outsiders to tell what's what. (Mazda-designed Ford Duratecs... Ford-designed Mazda V6s... VM Motori diesels in the Colorado & Wrangler... the Fiat 1.3 in the Tata Manza and the Chevy Spin...)

Can you share your experiences on which diesel fuel is best for our MUX? TIA

[elkabong]

Me masundan akong MUX kanina wala pang plaka medyo mausok

Been using Unioil's Euro IV diesel, so far wala ako makitang usok kahit idle lang. Plus I check the exhaust as it drives away, di pa din makita.

Thanks LancerA174...pero di ba nakakasira in the long run pag euro4 ang fuel for a euro2 compliant engine gaya ng MUX natin? Caltex kc gamit ko ngyn so far wala nmn ako makitang usok...4days pa lng kc sa akin un unit ko...TIA

[nelany]

Stealership talaga. Baka singer oil ang gamit, kaya every 5Tkm palit hehe. Kahit yung brake cleaner isang lata sinisingil. Every 5Tkm din ang brake service?

Normal yan sa bagong sasakyan. Palit lahat at ng oil at 1.5k km. Masisiskip pa lahat so expect na maraming excess metal na natangal o na shave sa umpisang gamitin.

[hugobo]

Stealership or not, i think i do not have a choice, can i insist on them not to include this and that without voiding my warranty? Pero im grateful we have a forum such as this, i can make learned exchanges with the SA, hoping they would think na alam ko sinasabi ko sana nga lang di masyado garapal. Well, i think all dealership are mostly the same, taga talaga, sa toyota dito sa amin, the same din from brake cleaners to basahan charge sa akin..

Hindi naman po siguro, kasi sa ibang bansa I think Euro IV level na din yung mu-X, siguro modified satin para kayanin niya yung Euro 2 fuels. Mag 5 months na din po samin so far wala pang problems sa engine.

May nabasa din po ako articles na ok lang daw yung Euro IV fuels kahit sa mga PUVs, etc.

Dapat kinukuha din natin yung mga items na china-charge satin. Lalo na yung brake cleaner. Ang alam ko kasi hindi naman nauubos yung isang lata eh. So may natitira pa.

Baka nagbago na pero nung nagpaservice ako ng Dmax dati wala namang pinalitan sa casa na gear oil noong 1st 1TKm to at least 40TKms. Sa Tucson, Starex, Navara at X-trail namin wala din pinalitan na gear oil that early. Even the engine oil nowadays other makes don't change at 1TKms anymore.
