Isuzu Dmax Owners [ARCHIVED]

[2Dmax]

guys,

what fuel consumption ng DMAX nyo? akin kasi is mga 11 km/liter. combined highway and city driving. i'm expecting kasi around 14-15 km/li.. hehe

[kurt]

the box material and construction feels smooth

the filter material is colored red. and a bit oily. the rubber ends feels firm, similar to the orig.

but i think the vic feels lighter, maybe less metal meshing in the construction. nakabit ko na.

plan to use it a maximum of 1 year lang.

even though i have used the vic oil filter 3x already, skipping trips to the casa for pms. and this vic filter. due to time and costs considerations.

at 75000kms, still feel the vehicle is too young to be using replacement parts like Vic. maybe at 100000kms i will be a regular Vic user. still havent tried ther diesel fuel filters.

after the rainy season, i still plan to use casa for a 20k.kms level pms service.
will try this ritual of every 20k.kms pms, sa casa. kung kaya nang bulsa.

regular rate last time, 10 months ago, i went sa isuzu manila is about php5000. parts and materials included but excluding parts like belts or bearings etc.

Mine is at 12-13 km per lit. both highway and city driving na yun abot pa minsan 140kmh hehehe....

[Memphis Raines]

More or less pareho kami ni AKA.

I also have to take note of my tire pressure. You gotta make sure that it's not below 30psi or else the mileage will indeed suffer.

Plus it also depends on your right foot if it's heavy then you visit the pump more often.

But overall, tipid pa rin sa fuel ang Dmax!

[t-maxx]

My 3.0Ddi during my 1st 1000 kms was 15.3+km/li both city ang highway and max speed was only 80kph.After 1000kms gone down to 13.8+ to 14.5 km/li and speeding up to 110.

[2Dmax]

mga DMAXers, ano vehicle security ng dmax nyo? 'coz i'm going to install CARRYBOY 3-LOCK tomorow sa banaue. this is for peace of mind..

[x_jason_x]

sakin dmax ko 8-8.5 kms per liter lang. Everyday use yan with 18s. Pucha lakas sa diesel kung naka mags. Pero yan 8-8.5 kms per liter traffic everyday sa edsa papunta de la salle taft. Ginamit ko fortuner minsan papuntang la salle with 18s rin nasa 10 kms per liter. Mas matipid! haha

Yep, talagang malakas ang consumption basta may additional load from the stock form.

Di ba may roll-up cover pa ang Max mo? Medyo mabigat rin yan.

Hi guys has anybody experience the tok tok tok sound coming from the somewhere in the driver side?

There is a toktoktok sound i think coming somewhere in the front wheel (driver side ). The tok tok sound become faster as i accelerate. At first kala ko shocks but i've already replaced it and yet the sounds still there.

Any idea guys?

TIA

18s with carryboy roller up(weight approx 40 kilos) and 1 sack of sand (weight approx 35kilos). Walang pera pang bili ng OME kaya nagchachaga sa sako ng buhangin.

[2Dmax]

i just had my car installed with CARRYBOY 3-lock steering column lock. sa pasko na lang siguro ung HID 6000k. siguro mga 7000 php na lang HID nun..

Welcome po!

Your problem maybe coming from your front left wheel and since the sound goes in rhythm with your speed, it is definitely not your shocks. So it has to do something spinning parts like the brake disc.

How old is your unit? Maybe the bearings need repacking. Brake caliper assembly should also be checked.

[Memphis Raines]

..sa pasko na lang siguro ung HID 6000k. siguro mga 7000 php na lang HID nun..

Sana nga! Some car shops here say that there will be a gradual decrease in HID prices but cautioned about the ones that may come from China.

Thanks.. 3yrs na din.. it definitely not the shocks kasi we already replaced it since yung OEM shock na fluid nagtagas na. Our trusted mechanic said that it maybe the inner velocity since he already check all the spining parts visible that can cause the sound including the caliper. The Dmax is already Isuzu Alabang. I just need some opinions if some of the dmax owner experience this because i really dont trust casa mechanics because of some bad experience from them before but still my dad insist in bringing the unit there.

[x_jason_x]

actually I can get HID's at php7000 lang. Honestly for me wala namna kaso kung China or what basta important madali kausap yun bibilihan in terms of warranty.

[2Dmax]

and also, almost all HIDs are china-made. bawal kasi talaga ang HID because it must be used with a projector headlamp assembly. popular HIDs and china-made are VTX, xenon-worx and other brands saying they are philips and bosch but are really not..

[bigeebabee]

ask ko lng po:

OK lang ba tanggalin yung gitna (third) leafspring ko for better ride?

Ride ko po is 2006 dmax automatic bilstein shocks rear procomp sa front

Ano po kaya effect ng load capacity nito?
