August 19th, 2008 07:35 PM #1That's what my agent also told me when I brought it for the first time in our province since I asked what's the max speed for break-in and he said that they have already done the break-in while it was still in their plant. But he said, as much as possible, drive up to 100kph only and don't stay in that speed for a long period of time. Good thing at 120kph, the tachometer doesn't reach 3k so I hope it's ok. Maybe when we go out of town again, I might give the engine a very, very good exercise.hehe
Wow, 115k kms!?! What problems have you faced with your max so far? I have a neighbor who owns a 2005 max. She is so proud with her truck and she said it hasn't given her any major headaches yet. Her family always brings it all the way up north to Isabela and all the way down south to Mindanao. It made me think what's the odo reading in her rig. It also put a smile on my face coz it gave me the impression that it's indeed a true workhorse.

hi, i need ur help and advise. my 2005 manual ride was one of the victims of the typhoon frank in iloilo. among the many electronic damages due to a 10 ft flood water in our area, i need to look for new (or surplus) items including: a cluster meter, an a/c switch assembly, a central lock module, and side mirror switches. fortunately after 2 months in the local isuzu casa, my ECM is functional and the engine running.
pls advise where i can look for these parts in manila. if in banawe, which store do i go to?
thanks in advance and more power!

August 21st, 2008 04:02 AM #6Hindi ako familiar kung saan or aling shops sa banawe specializes on isuzu (like the dmax).
yung a/c switch kailangan mo ng sample. merun akong nakuhaan sa Pasay na a/c supply store - its along EDSA (malibay, pasay area) about 100m from the kanto ng Evangelista, halos may katapat ito na overpass (sorry I forgot the name).
cluster meter (I suppose it is the cluster gauge)... i-try mo na lang ipakalas ito para mabuksan at maalis ang corrosion. but this should have been done earlier on. alternatively, chop-chop lang merun nito na mura. sa CASA siguradong mahal.
central lock module, palitan mo nalang ng generic lock - you don't have to go to banawe for that and usually alarms with central lock go at around P3000 to 4000 with installation na.
side mirror switches, CASA lang din ito or chop-chop shops (like in Capalangan, Pampanga) kaso hindi na practical puntahan yun kasi medyo malayo para a iyo.

August 21st, 2008 08:12 AM #7I am not sure of what these shops specialize in but I could guarantee that lots of cars, SUV's and pickups go there. The last time I visited I saw 2 brand new Land Cruisers and a brand new Starex. That shop is Goldrich. I think their sister company is Goldcars. Goldrich is located on the side of Q. Ave that goes to QC Circle. Turn right in Banawe (Max's side) then you'll see that very big shop about 500 meters to your left. Or you could try to call them at these numbers: [SIZE=2]712-6610, 741-4676, 741-4673, 741-4681. If you want to inquire at Goldcars, their site is www.goldcarsph.com. For Miggyboy, their site is www.miggyboy.com.

Sorry to hear that bro. Madugo yang nangyari sa D-Max mo. Anyway, you'll have to be patient in searching for surplus items. Kung brand new, any dealer can order them for you but it'll cost you a fortune. Jayson Auto Supply in the Manila/Binondo area sells OEM D-Max parts, just backread this thread or use the tsikot search for their contact numbers and address.
If you have no choice but to get a brand new meter cluster (gauge cluster?), I suggest you get the optitron gauges of the 2008 D-Max, kung gagastos ka na rin lang.
