All New Isuzu MU-X // Alterra Next Generation

[nowitzki41]

Hello, random lurker here. I would like to know if some mu-x owners can help me with a couple of questions. Is there a switch to turn off the blue ambient lights in the new mu-x? Can I also dim the stock HU as well? I can't seem to locate it in the car manual. Thanks!

Dont know regarding the ambient lights, but you may dim your HU. Just go to the settings, scroll to the right and you'll see that Setting option

Am planning to buy spoiler para kay MU-X. Does it need drilling or adhesive lang?

[minicarph]

the MUX spoiler is too heavy to be held by adhesive lang.

Hello,

Newbie here. okay lng ba palitan ang tires/rims ng LSM variant ng 265/60R18?
liit kasi ng current na gulong nya. Ano po ba kailangan i consider bago palitan?

Just try to stay within the same overall circumference as the stock wheels. You can use this tire calculator:

Tire Size Comparison

265/60R18 is 3.4% bigger than the stock 245/70R16. Still acceptable and this should greatly improve your car's aesthetics.

MUX LS-M comes with 245/70R16.

And even with the old LS-A's 17s vs the current BluePower 18s, the visual difference is noticeable.

FC impact? Nothing significant. With heavy torquey diesels like this, a few lbs on each tire doesn't impact FC at all. Traffic and driving style will still play an exponentially bigger role.

Thanks sir jut for the quick reply.
are there any adjustments needed (ex: speedometer calibration?) before installing the new ones? . and hindi naman siya makaka cause ng rubbing issues?

No to both your questions.

Speedometers are usually calibrated to be 5% faster than actual GPS speed, so if you upsize your tires then you get closer to your real GPS speed which is actually better.

No rubbing issues. 265/60 is the stock tire size of the current 3.0 MUX and it has the same wheel well.

Different strokes for different folks.

The 18s look SO MUCH BETTER than the 16s in my opinion.

Thank you again. Will be installing the tires on our car by the weekend.

Its 255 not 265.

Oops my bad - mas manipis nga pala tires ng MUX compared to the other PPVs which have 265/60 as standard.

Try to get 255/60R18 instead of the more common 265/60R18, para exact same spec as the LS-A.

Guys, why is the turbo spool of the bluepower mu-x barely noticable compared to the previous gen mu-x? Vgs equipped naman. Btw, i just love hearing it spool and am curious to know why its different. Btw, mas tahimik nga ang bluepower based on my observation [emoji846]

owners complained of the noisy turbos..hence isuzu replaced it.

1.795M na pala yung LS-A 4x2, IPC needs to bring in the 1.9 para sa 1.3-1.5M price range.
