Isuzu Crosswind Owners Thread [continued]

[Benzmizer]

Tanong lang din. 2 beses akong napundihan ng Euroline H3 halogen bulb sa fog lamp in 3 months.. Twice on the right side. What do you think is the culprit? Bad wiring, installation or bulb?

You may have a case of a bad ground. Lagay ka ng grounding kit bro.

Mga sirs tanung lang po kung meron kayong alam na shop na magaling mag align ng mga pintuan..medyo kelangan pa kasi lakasan pagtulak e para magsarado lalo na ung sa likod.tsaka gusto ko sana yung tunog nya ay parang bago ulit kapag sinarado.hehe.may ride is 2001 XTO.Thanks mga papa....

[Fargin]

pansin ko naman maraming crosswinds may dent/dimple above the rear door handle, ganun din kase samin.. kala namin natatamaan lang ng payong kay nagpa-pdr, then after a few months balik uli... nde kaya yung pagdiin lang ng pagsara ang culprit? ayaw kase umamin yung pdr experts na bumabalik yung dent sa likod eh eheheh

Tama ka, nasa pagsasara ng mga pinto yan. Tendency is when one closes the doors of his vehicle (whichever door including the hood and trunk), idinidiin yung thumb to add force when closing. ironically, the best way to close the door/trunk/hood is to SLAM it. Don't press it with your hands on the panel. As for the hood, drop it.

Believe me, that is the only way to solve that "dent" problem.

Parehong pareho tayo ng case bro. mga 3x na ko nagpalit ng bulb sa right pero pinakatagal na 2mos. pinacheck ko narin sa tatlong electrician, pero lagi nila sinasabi na okay naman wiring, magpalit lang daw ako ng matibay na brand. baka daw local nabibili ko. Nagpalit ako ng osram all weather ngayon worth 500 each. sana tumagal this time. sabi rin nila, malakas makapundi ang vibration ng crosswind, lalo na sa bumper. kaya dapat daw matibay at orig ang bulb mo. pero siguro pacheck mo muna din ground mo like what sir benz said para sure.

Hi Sir Benz,

Passed by Ace Hardware a while ago shopping for motor oils for the isuzu crosswind xuv 2010. I saw Mobil Delvac 10 - 40W tapos meron din siyang semi synthetic na model and meron ding fully synthetic pero sobrang mahal like nasa 4k for 5 liters. Ok ba yung Mobil na brand of motor oil? I also saw Castrol mahal din. What should I get yung regular na Mobil, yung semi-synthetic or yung fully synthetic for my isuzu crosswind xuv 2010 model? Thanks in advance.

[k9tooth]

Pa-advise naman mga master bago lang ako dito sa forum. Balak ko sana kumuha ng bagong crosswind XUV next month(Feb) mga 1st week, kaso baka mga March may 2011 na model. Gusto ko kasi XUV M/T ang sabi ng mga branch wala pa daw 2011 na XUV hindi nila alam kung kelan magkakaroon. Puro mga XUV Balikbayan mga available ngayon. Ano kaya magandang kulay? Kuha na ba ako sa 1st week ng Feb or hintayin ko 'yong XUV 2011 na model na lalabas?

TIA sa mga sasagot...

As I would suggest others, you can just get IGMO or Caltex Delo 500. May not be semi or fully synthetic but if you regularly change oil (every 5,000 kms or 3 mos whichever comes first), serves the same purpose if not better since pati mga oil/fuel filters palit.

It would really depend on: 1) accuracy of info you got on the availability of the said "2011" model, and 2) how urgent you need the vehicle.

Assuming you don't need the vehicle right away and it is true that the said "2011" model would be out by March, then I'd suggest you wait for the "2011" model. But if you're unsure of the reliability of source and you need the vehicle by next month (which is already next week), then best to get what is available now.

Makes sense?

You may have a case of a bad ground. Lagay ka ng grounding kit bro.

wow grounding kit sana post kayo ng pic pag nagpalagay ng grounding kit maporma siguro dating nun haha...i was also thinking of having one since 8yrs with 170,000 km na ang xto namin...was thinking of electrical stability more than looks...

Tama ka, nasa pagsasara ng mga pinto yan.

yung likod na pinto manipis yata yung yero nun tsaka masyadong hollow sya ganun din samen dami nang dent sa likod sa pagsara...

saan po ba?.... or meron po bang drain plug sa block ang crosswind para sa coolant....planning to change my coolant kasi,and sabi ng iba,may drain plug din ng coolant sa block ng engine bukod pa sa radiator...kung meron man,saan kaya banda sa engine ng crosswind naka locate yung drain plug na yun......TIA...

[red16]

[quote=jaz014;1664832]

Yes! radiator grill nga sir... il try to clean the internal muna or try to buy a powder.... d one you mentioned. Hopes doon lng prolema. Thanks!

the one sir benz referring is the lime which is comparable sa liquid sosa na gamit sa clogged na sinks....nabibili yung lime na yun sa suking aircon shop supply....

Pano ba gamitin yun sir jaz? ibuhos lang + babad ng kunti sa r. grills then wash, rinse lng? Pwede rin gamitin ito sa home a/c type din ryt? How much pla? thanks!

[jayghost213]

Mga Bossing, have any1 from you tried the GT champiro on your Isuzu AUV/SUV? i'm planning to replace my 4 tires(ouch!) any time this yr, just want to know about this tires and if its ok to place it on my Xwind XT? And where can i check this tires in QC or in Caloocan? thnx in advance

It sure is functional than looks. Here is the grounding kit installed in my Trooper:



Simple but serves the purpose.

Hmm, I've had 2 Crosswinds before, a 2001 XTO and '03 XUVi. One standard and one sporty model. My panels were straight except for the top part of my XTO's door handle since I use to commit the mistake of anchoring my thumb on the panel when I close the driverside door.
