Have a problem with my Isuzu Crosswind XTi. Around late November last year, I noticed a problem with my Crosswind which steadily and progressively worsened. It started out when I felt there was a slight delay when I started the engine. This then progressed to it wouldn't start at the first click of the engine but second and later on maybe third or fourth time I switched the ignition on. Then when I was driving it, I felt there was a feeling of sluggishness during the early days of the problem until it worsened to the point where on drives the rpm would go down and the engine stalls and I would stop and need a minute or 2 to start up the engine again. It progressed to the point where I would stall 3-4 times.

On December 29, 2012, I decided to have it serviced at Isuzu EDSA Balintawak. They managed to fix it and told me it possibly was a belt problem. So for a month and a half I used it normally until this Thursday Feb. 14, 2013 when I felt the delay again and today, I noticed the symptoms I described above coming back. I will be bringing it back to Isuzu EDSA Balintawak again tomorrow but I would like to know if anyone has had this problem and what could be causing it. Last December, they parts they replaced were the following:

1. Gasket, drain plug;
2. Plug, drain, fuel tank
3. Oil filter element
4. Fuel filter element
5. Belt, cooling fan
6. V-belt and
7. Repair Kit, CLU slave cylinder.

It's a 2007 model and not much smoke is coming out so not sure if it is calibration related. Hope people can help me diagnose the problem.

Thanks in advance!

Best regards,
