Isuzu Dmax Owners [ARCHIVED]

checked my receipts, dec 2004

total bill 12,617. repair camber & caster = 2,200.

i dont really know if the solution to my condition of "kabig" to one side is a camber and caster repair, but in my old car wheel alignment lang sya sa servitek.

i believe you will only do a camber and caster repair on really old cars with nearly 100,000kms on it. not on a 7 month old pickup (pang heavy duty db) with 20,000kms milage. i felt like a sucker approving that job. to this day i doubt they really did a "camber and caster job".

well thats in the past. im really glad now i have a choice to have my dmax repaired at shops where i feel i got my money's worth. plus peace of mind they did excellent work.

kurt--- camber and caster are needed by the dmax kc hindi na yan tulad ng dati na bolt and nut lng gagamitin.. meron yan spacer or shim ang tawag nila.. yup its needed specially wen parati gingamit.. meron wear and tear sa old shim kc... u nid 2 shim to adjust the camber and 1 shim for the caster... check ur alignment kung kakapig pa ba wen uron the road.. choose a road na flat talga hindi yun parang nak tagilid...

Talagang may shim for adjusting camber. Sinaunang panahon pa lang ganun na talaga. Parang glorified washer lang siya. I don't know how you could wear one out so quickly, though.

Ten years old na ibang sasakyan namin dito, hindi pa namin ginagalaw iyang camber. Madalas kasi lalo lang nagkakandalokoloko.

Mga tol!

My alam ba kayo na DMAX na binebenta for around 500K php. Ung bayaw ko kasi naghahanap and his budget is limited to such amount? siempre gusto namin ung in good condition and hindi pa nababangga. mhirap na baka nahulog na pala sa bangin ung DMAX na un..

hehe. sana meron..

Jason,

here's a crappy pic

sorry, took it with camera phone

Buti naman may data na ang goodyear serviteks sa dmax. haba talaga pila sa casa pag wheel aligments and stuff...

djerms,
not sure on the cost of ecu diagnosis. last time I had this diagnosis was with my galant waaayyyy back in 2001

It was because it had somesort of engine hesitation but I forgot how much it cost me. root cause? fuel mixed with water. try to check out the amount of work on the 20k PMS. I am not familiar with it. if its minor like visual inspection and normal change oil, i think a similar shop can preform this at a lesser cost.

glad to know the bendix pads are working great. i will replace mine with these also and try them out.
