Isuzu Crosswind Owners Thread [continued]

[acergy09]

manual trans din yung sportivo ko...sa 120kph naman na takbo,wala pa sya sa critical rpm,di pa sya dumidikit sa pula,malayo pa nga e...kaya ok lang yun...IMO,sa makina,matagl buhay nyan,lalo pa at diesel ang atin,basta alaga lang sa engine oil...

The life of a diesel engine is generally about twice as long as that of a petrol engine[24] due to the increased strength of parts used. Diesel fuel has better lubrication properties than petrol as well.

Diesel fuel is a better lubricant than petrol so is less harmful to the oil film on piston rings and cylinder bores; it is routine for diesel engines to cover 250,000 miles (400,000 km) or more without a rebuild.

Yup, matibay nga diesel imo. At mas mabilis talaga MT kaysa AT. Sana 5-speed nalang din ang AT, para kaya sabayan ang MT.

I'll try to measure mine tomorrow and post it here.

36 inches ung Antenna ng crosswind ko, 3ft yun.

[kafph2000]

36 inches ung Antenna ng crosswind ko, 3ft yun.

Hala, 23 inches lang antenna ko ngayon. Bali ang nahahatak ko lang ay, yung pinabase ng antenna, at may maikli sa dulo. Kahit gaanong kalakas ko hilahin wala parin. Tsk tsk
Stock pa yang iyo bro?

[janalla]

Same here, 36 inches stock antenna ng sportivo (MT, '05) ko.

Any idea Sirs, saan mainam gumawa ng kabitan ng extra antenna? I need it for my CB radio...havent seen one yet on crosswinds/sportivos eh.

[TholitzReloaded]

Bro, manual ba yung iyo?? AT sakin pero hindi umaabot ng 120+. Sumisigaw na makina haha. Well in my case, masama nga kasi todo na rpm. Hindi naman masama yan unless sagad lagi rpm.

Manual, I've reach up to 145km/hr malapit na sa red line.

Para sa akin mas mabilis ang A/T dahil umaabot ang sa akin ng 145km/hr walang modification, kapag walang traffic sa star toll way sagad sa 145km/hr

Lagyan muna ng WD-40 at dahan dahan hatakin, baka masira pag todo ang hila agad.

yun din pagkaalam ko...mabilis ang automatic na cosswind,pero it take a few minutes nga lang hanggang makabuwelo na sya ng husto...pero dami ko nababasa dito sa forum na mabagal daw yung A/T na crosswind...

[grandprix]

Natatakot lamang silang idiin ang accelerator dahil sa tunog ng makina, mabagal nga ang sasakyan pag hindi hinahataw ng husto.

[Fargin]

yung xti limited namin napaabot ko na rin ng 130 kph sa star tollway and sctex, nakakatakot na rin yung tunog ng makina..

[gilcoolcruiser]

Unang bukas ng a/c may amoy n lumalabas.3 weeks p lng xwind ko

Sir Benz, paki post naman ng detailed drawing kung paano tangalin ang brake light assembly ng XL, naalis kona kasi ang dalawang screw bolt pero ayaw pa rin matangal. TIA.

Brake Light? You mean the TAIL LAMP or 3rd Brake Lamp (mounted inside the rear door)? I believe wala yung XL if you are referring to the 3rd brake light.

Sorry Sir, my request is not clear. You are correct, TAIL LAMP assembly need details for removal to replace the busted bulb. Thanks...

Dun sa PDF file ng Indonesian part catalog ay wala akong makita na details ng tail lamp. Thanks for the advised.

after removing the 2 screws, you just have to pull the tailight towards you. . . dapat straight ang pull. . . alogin mo nalang kung ayaw pa rin. . .

Thanks again sir, subukon ko. Bakit kya maganit may lock paba ito sa loob?

As mentioned by atly, here is a visual of how to remove the Crosswind's tailamps:



It may need a little force pulling the tailamps for (if I remember it right), there is a plastic plug lock holding the tailamps -- supplementing the 2 hex screws.
