Isuzu Crosswind Owners Thread [ARCHIVED]

[donXbkol]

Morning po sa lahat. Maki sali rin po, Newbie lang ako dito at nakabili rin ng 2nd hand crosswind. Tanong ko lang po dahil sa registration ng crosswind 2006 M/T ko ay XTRM, classified ba ito as XUV or XT? Pwede rin po ba ito ma upgrade to Sportivo look? If so, ano name & address ng shop na pwede mag pa upgrade.

Any feedback is much appreciated, salamat.

Hello all! Well, we just got our brand new Crosswind XTi last night. I drove it around the village for a couple of minutes. Medyo disconcerting and underwhelming. A bit slow, not very refined (matagtag), noisy, and the fumes are still a bit nauseating. But that's fine. We did buy it for it's reliability, fuel economy, and pang-harabas traits so I can't really complain.

Good points: quite spacious, not that expensive (barely over PhP900,000), basic and straight-forward interior layout. This is our first diesel-engined car kaya it'll take a bit of time getting used to it.

I just hope it lives up to its "workhorse-like, chiselled-from-granite" reputation in the long run. I'll try to post pics soon.

BTW, is there any way of turning off the alarm system? Pag naka-park lang kasi sa bahay, gusto namin hindi na naka-arm yung alarm. Ingay kasi eh. I-on na lang ulit pag nasa public parking or sa mall kami? Thanks!

congrats on your new vehicle...
ganyan tlga sir, malaking adjustment tlga lalo na kpag nasanay ka sa gas engines but you'll get used to it... i have my xuv for 7 years, hanggang ngayon di pa ko tinitirik nito, reliable....

nagustuhan nga ng family namin ang performance ng xuv kya recently lang bmili kme ng sportivo...

regarding sa car alarm, i press mo ung blue button na may icon na speaker. hindi sya mag aalarm pero iilaw ang hazard kpag gumana ung sensor...

if gusto mong ioff yung alarm totally, lock the door using the key not the remote of the alarm. Ganyan ginagawa ko pag nasa parking lang ng bahay.

Thanks kapatid na kambal. I really do think the car will easily pay for itself and will be well worth every cent it costs in the long run. Salamat din sa info on the alarm. I'll try it later.

Possible may damage na yun bolt na nagkokonek sa pitman arm at center link o yun shock absorber. Better have it check immediately to experienced mechanic. Any damage related to you steering wheel will lead you to catastrophic accident.
