    I'm due for my next change oil for my Dmax and the warranty expired last month. My plan is to have the change oil outside the casa to save on expenses. Please furnish any answers on the following:
    a. Brand of oil (I've heard that fully syntetic oil can be up to 10000kms, is it true?

    b. brand of fuel filter and oil filter (is it advisable to still buy isuzu branded filters?)

    c. brand of air filter?

    d. reputable shop for change oil within QC area

    e. any other points that I might have overlooked or need to know

    Maraming salamat po

    Gamit ko ngayon Zic X7000 15w40 with bosch filter .... K&N air filter.

    Fully synthethic pwede yan 10th kms just make sure to use a very good filter as well.

    i have mine done at the friendly neighborhood gas station. they have a promo. last time, it cost me almost 2000 bucks, hecho derecho. mineral oil only and oil filter change (whatever they have; zic nga yata), every 5000 km.
    yung air filter, pinapabugahan ko ng compressed air. basta hindi pa basa ng langis, at mukha pang disente, ok pa sakin yon. i know i know. bad practice and all that. kayo na po bahala kung anong air filter ang gusto nyo.

    That's actually a good practice with the air filter ... as long as it's not torn and broken just spray with compressed air ...

    What's the advantage of using mineral oil, sir?

    accdg sa thread regarding filters e hindi...hanggang 3k or 5k tops lang ang bosch.....yung bosch na made in vietnam/malaysia ay cheaper than the vic equivalent.

    switch to OE heavy duty filters gaya ng baldwin, fleetguard, donaldson, ............

    reagrding air filter, oem specs is still the best for me (my truck)....balance between power and engine lifespan.

    hindi ko na binubugahan ng hangin ang air filter ko. tinatap ko lang para matanggal yung mga coarse particles. additional filtering material din (daw) yung mga kumakapit na fine particles.

    tapos palit na lang kung due na talaga.

    regarding sa engine oil (mineral o synthetic), sundan mo na lang kung ano recommended. in my application kasi e impraktikal gumamit ng synthetics.

    gamit ko baldwin filter, mobil mx (5k kms) at caltex super diesel (3-4k kms).

    To be honest, economic advantage. Mas mura ng di hamak eh.

    What i do is regualr oil change every 6 months using mineral oil.

    Cleaner oil, happy engine at a fraction of the cost of 1 synthetic oil change.

    Tanong ko lang sa mga expert ng oil filter. Bat yung mga nakita ko pics sa net ng baldwin and fleetguard mas konti ang fleats nya compared sa vic oil filter? Diba dapat mas maraming fleats mas maganda. Pero mas marami talaga fleats yung vic. Di kaya fake yung mga yun. Vic user ako wala naman problem na encounter sa engine.
