Isuzu Crosswind Owners Thread [continued]

[SportivoX]

Merry Christmas to all.

Possible naman i-lift ang XT na variant ng Crosswind diba? Kasi walang pinagkaiba sa Sportivo maliban sa interior set up at additional accessories sa body? Gusto ko kasi sana yung height maging katulad sa Sportivo ) May nakapagtry na din bang magpakarga sa UniOil? Euro 4 daw ang diesel nila eh meron ba difference sa engine performance? Saka pala usually every 10k ako nagchachange oil pero nakalagay pala sa PMS handbook dapat every 5k? Every 5k pa din ba kahit fully synthetic?

Has anyone tried adding coco-methyl ester to increase the biodiesel blend to 5%? My 3-month old Sportivo accelerates better (it really flies on the expressway) and absolutely no smoke comes out of the tailpipe. I add about 1.5 liters for every full tank of standard 2% biodiesel blend after I run the Sportivo for about 30 kms after the low fuel warning light goes on.

Hi guys,

I just noticed a minimal amount of oil is being spat out from the breather hose going to air intake. Newbie here, so I asked help from google and these are some of the possible culprits:

1. too much oil (possible since kakachange oil ko lang at baka sobra ang nailagay ng mekaniko)
2. worn out pcv valve (this is my main guess since I haven't replaced the stock)
3. cracks on breather hose
4. worst, worn out rings (is this possible even if I only have 100,000 kms on my odometer reading?)

Your inputs would be highly appreciated.

Yung OEM air filter ay paper type so di pwedeng hugasan. Invest na lang ng K&N filter para washable.

I tried looking for K&N/Simota air filter but I haven't found one for crosswind. Saan kaya meron nito at ano exact model?

Mga bossing, san po may magaling na mekaniko ng crosswind? Gusto ko po san patingin yng crosswind namin, may kalumaan na kasi.. Qc, makati or pque po sana..

Bros,

May nakapag-upgrade na ba sa inyo ng air filters? Ang gusto ko sana stock set-up parin pero instead of the stock filter, magpalit ako ng K&N. Saan meron at magkano?

may gumawa na niyan, may pic dito somewhere. makikita mo kung matyaga kang mag backread.
retrofitted nga lang. k&n cone type yung ginamit. nakakabit sa stainless tube.
if i remember correctly, kaunti lang raw difference sa performance.

yung pcv ang matagal ko ng tinatanong dito kung san nakakagay yun o meron ba crosswind nun?

May nakita nga ako sa youtube bro, tube then cone type yung filter. IMO takaw maintenance ang ganun kaya gusto ko sana parehong-pareho lang ng stock pero washable type. Paper type kasi yung stock natin. Pero kung totoo nga na wala namang difference o very minimal sa performance, mag-stock nalang ako kung ganun. haha

Yung ganito sana hanap ko, pero wala ako makitang exact para sa crosswind. :D

Calling on Crosswind gurus. May bagong thread na ba para sa crosswind? Bihira na ata bumisita ang mga experts natin hehehe
