Isuzu Dmax Owners [ARCHIVED]

[dlim]

hello, regarding sa horn, magandi rin kung isasabay mo ang hella supertone and the stebel nautilus.. yung nautilus ko nasa likod ng front bumber and the supertone nasa harap lang, behind the front grill...

Ung sa akin nilagay ko sa bandang likod ng foglight. No need to remove the bumber and the grill. All I did was removed first the mud guard near the fender (above the front tire) and you could see the metal braces of the bumper. I just drilled a hole on that braceand install my NAUTILUS HORN. I didn't need to splice any wire. I just re-routed the relay wirings from the inside of the relay panel to the outside. (ayaw ko kasing galawin ang stock wiring ko)

2damx--- ok lng ba sound ng horn ng dmax mo since you placed ur horns behind the bumper? hind ba humina? i spliced my wires but soldered it also para walang loss sa voltage and used abigger wire with relay and fuse... but im not planning naman ikabit ulit ang stock kc pangit ng sound.. buti pa honda civic ko malakas ang horn... hehehehe...

I'm having my 15tkm check-up now at Isuzu Pasig. Grabe pala ang 20tkms... 2 days aabutin.

Hey Isuzu and DMAX Peeps, EB naman tayo!!! Lets widen our knowledge and make our database! Meet tayo sa sat!

JARHEAD -- hindi naman humina. Or talagang malakas lang talaga ng NAUTILUS. And hindi naman na-enclosed masyado ung horn ko dahil may large opening sa bandang gilid nya. Pero protektado naman sa tubig and other foreign dirt that could damage my horn. I don't want to splice any wiring kasi gusto ko STOCK pa rin ang mga essential specifications sa sa dmax ko. saka para style "PLUG and PLAY".

And advise ko nga pala pre, use INSULATOR HOSE sa mga wiring mo lalong lalo na sa positive wire mo. negative body ground kasi grounding system natin. marami nyan sa autosupply. just a precautions.. God bless..

To All:
Be careful sa mga casa. minsan maganda lang sa pandinig if sinasabi nating CASA. but it also depends sa mga technicians dun. my friend told me na ung ibang casa kasi hindi nila pinapalitan ng oil filter and sometimes oil. sasabihin nila OK na. before you go to casa, mark your oilfilter, then after they serviced your car, check whether they realy changed the filter. also, check the oil level if it's between the minimim and the maximum level. One time na nagpachange oil ako, when i checked the oil level, i was surprised it was one inch above the maximum level. hindi ko tuloy alam if talaga bang napalitan ung oil ko or they just topped-up or simply added oil.. God bless..

kaya inayawan ko isuzu pasig, 2 days for 20000km pms. one time nung 10k.kms pms ko nakita ko nakatambay lang dmax ko for over an hour, me hindi man naka lift. wala technician or anything. what are they waiting for, for the fluids to settle. lagi overfilled pa engine oil ko in the 4 times i used their service, i think they pour all 6 liters.

my 20k.kms pms was with isuzu makati, 40k and 60k kms pms, isuzu manila. all done within the day using an appointment or with a block number within no.5.

can you suggest a way to safely paint or lighten the color of the dmax's dipstick. with its dark color its hard to tell the quality of the oil inside the engine.

for my out of warranty dmax. i have used the service of my local servitek for oil changes with mobil oils. and in a previous post, i now know the reputable VIC has relacement parts suitable for the dmax. but all other mechanical jobs, (brakes, bearing repack), sa casa pa. not yet tried other mechanics or shops.

some diy jobs are clearly instructed in the owner's manual

thanks

Ok naman kami sa isuzu pasig, except for the high oil level (mistubishi pasig din ganyan). Yup they pour all 6 liters.

After the warranty, sa servitek na rin ako papagawa for my suspension parts and sa personal mechanic nako papa change oil.

Habol ko lang talaga is the warranty, baka kasi may biglang masira at hindi ma-claim.
