Isuzu Crosswind Owners Thread [continued]

[moksymoks]

Hi Sir Benz,
Just wanted to ask kung alam mo ilang liters yung engine oil dun sa bagong isuzu crosswind xuv 2010 model? Kung sakasakali if i'm gonna buy 5 liters ng mobil delvac mx sa ace hardware enough na kaya yun para sa change oil? Thanks in advance.

[Benzmizer]

anong brand yan sir benz...yung grounding kit na nakita ko sa speedlab merong bilog na cover dun sa terminal ng battery...

Honestly, I forgot. Besides, I was more particular on the principle and how efficient the grounding kit works for my vehicle. As to that one you saw at SpeedLab, well, maybe it is intended to either ensure that connection/effect would be more efficient than others or to make it look better (to justify the assumed expensive price)

sir benz ano ba gamit ng grounding kit? sorry guys for noob question.

No problem. As i have said earlier, I forgot. Basta when you opt to install one on your vehicle, just make sure the cable/wires used are big enough to provide better results. It'll defeat the purpose if insufficient yung size nung cable/wire na ginamit. Again, keep in mind: "VALUE FOR MONEY".

Yup, 5 liters would be just fine. From my knowledge, a Crosswind's engine consumes 4.5L of engine oil.

Mga Sir,

May tanong lng po ako regarding sa sportivo. I own a Sportivo bought last 2009, almost 2 yrs now and I just noticed na prang ngchochoke sya nung bumahe kami papuntang clark last weekend when I reached 80-100kph.

Ano po kaya ang problema nun? Last Dec 28 lng po ako ngpa 25km check up. Hndi ko po nalaman yung problema na yun kung hndi ko binyahe ng malayo.

Ano po kaya ang problema? Ano po kelangan kong tingnan? Thanks

[weisshorn]

Fuel filter maybe. When was last fuel & air filters changed?

[spasky2009]

Ang alam ko po kasama sya dapat dun sa 25km pms. Papacheck ko na rin po yung fuel filter.

[Benzmizer]

Fuel filter maybe. When was last fuel & air filters changed?

Every 20,000 kms or as needed (depending on condition of filters)

ahh...i think aesthetic purpose lang yung cover nung sa speedlab, it's hks circle earth pala (or greddy? i kinda forgot)...mga 4k sa speedlab sir ehh...

sir benz ano ba gamit ng grounding kit? sorry guys for noob question.

sa pagkakaintindi ko dito sir, yung grounding kit is also known as high tension wires...ang alam ko (not sure, though), it ensures good flow of electricity throughout the car... given the demand (of electricity) in the engine, ecu, all kinds of sensors, lights and other accesories and subjecting the car through punishment of daily driving (paved/unpaved, potholed, abrupt start/stopping), the battery and it's components (including wires) may not be able to give it's full potential... at dun mas nagiging effective ang grounding kit/high tension wires...

well, that's what i think it is (again, not sure about it)...

Simply said, a grounding kit is a safe and reliable way of creating a low resistance ground path for your car. The kit provides direct ground paths from battery negative to body, chassis, and specific engine components to give a noticeable improvement in electrical circulation. Reduced electrical “noise” can improve ECU signals and throttle response resulting in better performance and reduction in flat spots, and many more benefits associated with improved grounding.

Oh, HIGH TENSION WIRES (aka HiTen) are different to a grounding kit. HiTen are only available on spark plug-equipped vehicles. These are how those look like:

mga sir's....

Pasingit lang po... Pag ka installed po ba nang radiator natin sa crosswind (xuv) ay fix-welding or bolts & nuts? Plan to check kung may tagas or leak, every time na ginagamit ko cya for 1 day lang 6 or 7 hours pag balik sa hauz then check sa water coolant reservor nababawasan agad equivalent sa half or whole glass ng water...... & How much the repair cost if sa radiator shop ko dalhin? thanks!

[abet0202]

tanong ko lng po kung saan marecommend niyo shop for camber alignment? TIA

From my knowledge, nut and bolts. Should be easy to remove and install.

tanong ko lng po kung saan marecommend niyo shop for camber alignment? TIA

Any reputable Camber / Align / Balancing shop such as Servitek, Bridgestone and underchassis shop. Basta electronic na.

yup, nuts & bolts lang radiator natin. ilang beses narin ako nagpagawa niyan dahil sa leaks sa 2 hoses. so pina-fix ko nalang gamit tanso. 250 lang ang labor, pero yung tanso medyo mahal, mga 300-400 ata isa. for sure, may tagas yan sir considering na ganun karami nababawas in 1 day.

Tanong narin ako mga sir: what's the easiest way to solve headlight moisture? Nakaclip lang ba mga lens nun o naka-silicone din?

[red16]

* benz & *kafph... thanks sa info's.

[alakina]

tanong lang mga sir...kakabili ko lang po ng sportivo nitong nov 2010..napansinko po kapag shift n ako ng gear to gear to medyo matigas siya...pinacheck ko n din sa isuzu ganun p din...napansin ko kapag start lang naman ng makina tpos pagpinandar na at change to 2nd gear ang hirap ichange pero kapag nakatakbo n ng malayo smooth n ulet...normal lng po b yun?

[kaioz]

mga sir pano ba mag align ng headlight ng XUV 02, mejo mataas yung ilaw eh dami nag fflash sakin.

also planning to replace headlight bulb ng crosswind xuv 02. bibilin ko osram nightbreaker. busted na yung left eye ni XUV eh

I believe I have posted a diagram of it in one of the Crosswind threads here.... But one "barok" way is to point your vehicle to an even wall with a distance of 3-4 meters and align the headlamps to your liking.

There should be some screws you are to twist to adjust the headlamp aiming.

[Errol5]

Sir Benz you got pm...

[Benzmizer]

Sir Benz you got pm...

PM replied.

[kafph2000]

Sir benz, do you have a diagram guide for disassembling the headlight?
