DIESEL vehicle ba hanap?? ISUZU ka na!!!

[betkap_cabalen]

betkap_cabalen ..

akoy humihingi na ng paunang kapatawaran sa iyo at sa ating mga "KaKanTsikot" na nagmamay-ari din ng sasakyang pan-lupa na disenyonghapon na sasakyang panlupa na nagngangalang isuzu Sportivo ..

dahil sa aking masusing pagmamasid, ako'y laging nakakakita ng mga sasakyang panlupang Sportivo na nagdudulot ng pulosyon sa ating inang kalikasan, dahil sa karumaldumal nitong pagbubugha ng maitim at mainit na usok .. :bwahaha:

ako'y walang masamang hangarin sa post ko na ito dahil ito nagmula lamang sa aking masusing pagmamasid .. akoy naghahangad na i maintain mo ng maayos ang iyong sasakyang panlupa .. para hindi ito magdulot ng polusyon sa ating inang kalikasan ..

:peace: :bwahaha:

Talaga namn po itong si Sir SQ eh anong kasing bait, sa akin pakiwari itong tao ito ay dapat natin pasalamatan at siya nakapagsasabi ng kanyang nakikita at nagbibigay ng mga salitang nauukol sa kanyang nakikita...

Bagamat ito po iyong nakikita sa lansangan na karumaldumal na naghahasik ng polusyon sa Inang bayan na iyong na ituring, sila po ay may sakit sa tiyan kung maihahambing lamang po. Bakit ko po naituran ang mga ganyang salita ay sa kadahilanang yang tao nga ho na ubod ng busog at ikay plakarin at patakbuhin tignan ko lamang kung hindi ka rin magka utot utot di ho ba....?

Ang ibig ko po sabihin duon eh, kailangan na ho ng ibayung paglilinaw sa makina ng iyung napagmasdan at napagaralang sasakyan na ubod ng usok lamang.

Sa mga ayaw at gusto ho ng SPORTIVO kayo po lahat ay aking pinasisinayan at kayo po ay dumulog sa aking munting dulugan o bulung bulungan sa dampi ng katotohanan. MABUHAY PO KAYO AKING MGA KABABAYAN PILIPINO!!!!

Taas noo at saludo po ako at ako'y isang Pilipino, me kalokohan man o wala Saludo pa rin po ako sa inyo lahat.

Muli ISUZU pa rin po ang Wagi!!!

Patnubayan po kayo ng Puong may Kapal!!!!

teka...makasabat nga dito. medyo nadedehado crosswind owners.

my comment for the crosswind will be based mainly on my 196,000+km experience in driving my unit w/c i got back in 2001 (an xto).

I have logged my fuel consumption from day 1 up to now... call me a data control freak.. but I did and still do, and so far, in its whole lifetime, i have averaged 12.56 km/liter combined highway/city driving and i often push my unit to 100-120kph if traffic will allow me. So as to its fuel efficiency, no question about it. the highest i got for a two day travel was about 16km/liter, 2 passengers, going up and down baguio, di naubos yung full tank ko from manila-to-baguio-backto-manila.

as for its tendency to belch black smoke, yes it does have a tendency to belch black smoke specially if you don't pay careful attention to having the air filter and the fuel filter replaced regularly. cleaning and purging the exhaust manifold w/ water also helps. but mainly, these two filters have a lot to do w/ the crosswind's tendency to have black smoke. using biodiesel added to your fuel tank at 0.5% to 1% dramatically reduces the black smoke and surprisingly makes the engine run more smoothly and run w/ slightly more torque and power. this effect of biodiesel is well known among biodiesel afficionados. before anyone contests my claim, please do a search on my posts regarding biodiesel. i've been using it since 2003. my emission test records proves that with proper care, the crosswind (and perhaps any diesel engine for that matter) will not belch that much black smoke - my emission tests from 2001 to 2006 was below 1.0. For 2007, i experimented on not changing the air and fuel filter and did not change oil. I got a 1.5 average... still passing, but definitely not as good as the 0.65 average I got the previous year.

lastly, if you're comparing innova and adventure to crosswind, well, i agree innova has an edge in terms of refinement, having a more powerful crdi engine..but then again...i'd bet in the long run, the simple mechanical mechanism of the direct inject 4ja1 engine will be easier to maintain and fix. this engine can practically last a lifetime if it is properly maintained and parts will not run out (well any engine will, i suppose). but i beg to disagree if you say that an adventure is better... engine wise or offroading wise.

as to its semi-offroad capability... to those familiar w/ that dirt road mountain pass traversing san mateo, rizal going to marikina, i took my xto thru that road and it so happened that it rained the previous night. i was lucky the road was kinda downhill but my crosswind made it through... either by sheer luck or (i hate to claim) by gutsy driving.

my 2 cents..

Yan na nga sinasabi ko sa crosswind owners pang 100,000km plus pag nag testimony..in other words pang matagalan talaga

I can attest to the reliability, efficiency and durability of a 4Ja1 engine. It is a real workhorse and that is what a real diesel engine should be! Don't take our word, own one and you will know what we are saying.

yup, 4ja1 is really a very durable engine. easy to maintain. but with respect to mitsu, the old and reliable 4d56 is still a bulletproof engine. matibay din.

[kevin3000]

go isuzu go! kaso may nabasa ko sa thread ng kia carens

na di daw masyado mabigat steering wheel nila pero hindi daw ibigat sa crosswind

reply naman nung isa "may mas bibigat pa ba sa crosswind" tama ba yun!

oh yeah its one reliable engine..

i also agree with you brother :thumbup: we have a pajero 4d56-t and its now at 160k+ on the odo and still kicking. no major problems. than my grandfather's 4m40 madaling nasira. BUT, its with his maintenance with the car

OT sorry

Wow!!!! Newbies po ako d2 mabigat pla ang steering wheel ng Crosswind???? balak ko pa naman kumuaha ng Sportivo, I just read all the good things about the ISUZU but not the bad things....Ano pa nga ba ang ibang disadvantage ng Crosswind specially ng Sportivo??? Kindly advise and TIA!!!!

[efren_dlh]

:rofl: lol

JJ ano sa palagay mo ang Sportivo ok ba ito para sa aking pamilya medyo malaki na din ang pamilya ko eh 6 kmi sa family, I'm tryin to purchase one, I think you can help me to let me know what are the advantage and disadvantage of the IZUSU Sportivo, mukhang matipid ito at 4JA1 lng siya.

TIA!!!

Wahahaha... that's funny... My AD Resort has heavier steering than the Crosswind. The Crosswind's steering ain't any heavier than most pickups I've driven. Want something really heavy, drive a Fort. That steering is stiff.

Ganyan ho talaga Pinoy habang nasusugatan lalong tumatapang!!! kung bakit nga lamang nga ho ano, eh habang binababa ang tingin nila sa Crosswind ay siya naman ang angat ng kalagayan nire ano? Basta sa ganang akin ho, maganda ho talaga ang Sportivo at siya ang paburito ko sasakyan ngayun mga KakanTsikot opo.

Mabuhay po kayo!!!

[seymorebutts]

i have driven a 2000 XTRM, mas luma pa yun sa crosswind pero hindi naman mabigat yung steering (malapad pa gulong nun), parang pareho lang sila ng revo. i want to compare the steering with carens kaya lang wala pa ako sa pinas e, pag uwi ko update ko tong thread na to

[kevin3000]

yep tama po kayo na drive ko na yung sa dad ko and yung vios ng mom actually mas magaan yung sa sportivo ewan ko kung bakit nagcomment ganun ang comment ng isang forumer sa sportivo the only thing na hindi ko gusto is mabagal
pero mas gusto ko to kesa sa vios namin
dahil
1.hindi masyado matagtag
2.yung entertainment sys. ay ok
3.comportable sumakay maluwag
4.hindi ganun kahina a/c
5.macho ang dating pag nakasportivo ka :D

nung umakyat kami bagiuo laging puno 10 kami + yung mga gamit
wala naman problema sa tulin at sa akyatan malakas at hindi ka ibibtin
at matipid p1500 balikan bulacan to bagiuo to bulacan at madalas pang traffic dahil penagbenga nun

mahina brake ng isuzu

bro sa trooper ko parang mabigat compared sa paj.

[s_quilicot]

mahina brake ng isuzu

bro sa trooper ko parang mabigat compared sa paj.

mahina talaga and very unusual ..
dati sa LS pick namin and sa 02 trooper namin dati tumukod and brake sa highspeed and sa 05 naman sobrang tigas .. na try ko nang ipa bleed and lines and palit brakepads pero ganun parin .. genuine brake pads pala sa harap and bendix sa likod ..

ano ba pwedeng i-adjust para maging malambot yung brake?
