ung DMAX ko hindi ko na siguro ibebenta yun. sabay na kaming tatanda nun. saka para sa akin mas OK pa rin i-drive ung mga sasakyan na kahit luma na pero reliable pa rin. parang ung 1994 isuzu pick up namin. matibay talaga. saka hanggang maganda pa rin ang fuel efficiency. gamit ko yun pamasok kasi kahit bara-bara ang gamit ok lang. hehe. ung DMAX ko, nakaparada lang lagi sa bahay.

2dmax--tama ka dyan and dapat i.maintain lng para 2magal tlga... and reliable tlga ang isuzu lalo na ng engine nila...

ano mga mods sa dmax mo?

**2Dmax** · August 21st, 2006 05:12 PM

MODS:
1. Stebel Nautilus: installed without splicing any wire (aka plug and play)
2. Rhino lining and carryboy roller bed
3. hood deflector

yan pa lang kasi my pamilya na ko. kay baby lang napupunta lahat ng ipon ko. pro in the future heto balak kong ikabit:
1. APEXi turbo timer
2. Pioneer AVH-P6850 2 DIN LCD monitor
3. TV tuner
4. Rear view camera

in terms sa mags, gusto ko stock lang kasi mas efficient ang takbo ng sasakyan pag stock, unless of course mga lightned mags na un kinabit mo pero abot langit naman ang presyo nito..

kaw, mods ng sa yo?

2DMAX,
So wala na screws na tatanggalin to replace the foglights? Kakatakot kasi pag nahawakan ang bulb or malagyan ng dumi di ba mapupundi yun?

I just checked my AT fluid kanina. ok naman level. I drove off first then move thru all gears tapos HOT reference ko. oks naman. But sad to say above max talaga ang engine oil level ko. Next PMS I have to tell isuzu to lessen the oil, that is if im still going to isuzu. I might go to autotechnica nalang since sila ang pinaka ok na service centers na nakita ko so far. mura pa labor. Grabe pala labor ng isuzu for 5tkms, halos 2k.

on e of these days, i'll be sharing my experience from my dmax. i just started consolidating everything from my log sheet. hope to share it with you guys.

**x_jason_x** · August 21st, 2006 06:14 PM

yun pinalitan un fog lights ko, dinukot lang nila. Make sure lang na magaling yun gagawa.

ang gusto ko talaga lagay sa dmax ko is yun reverse sensors. Pero di kaya kasi ayaw ko irisk na butasan yun steel bumper.

**ian_rex** · August 21st, 2006 06:19 PM

sir, regarding sa proximity sensors, no need mag butas. may mga sensor na parang dinidikit lang just below the tail lights.

**2Dmax** · August 21st, 2006 06:38 PM

DJERMS,

wala ng tatanggaling screws. deretso ng fog light un. balak ko rin bumili ng fog light ung HYBRID POLARG. japan un so siguradong reliable..

**Djerms** · August 21st, 2006 06:45 PM

Saan ba nabili yang hybrid polarg na yan? meron ba sa malls?

Ian,
Langya ka! Ninakaw mo ang DMAX ko!!! Hehe. Parehong pareho tayo.

**2Dmax** · August 21st, 2006 06:54 PM

MGA PRE,

what oil are you using for your dmax? ako kasi Mobil Delvac Mx 15W-40. CI-4 category na kasi 'to, the latest category sa diesel engine. OK sana ung fully synthetic ng MOBIL kaso mga around 2700 php for 5 liters. masyadong mahal. But change oil interval would be every 10000 kms/one year whichever comes first..

and one thing, what oil are you using for your transmission? the manual says to use engine oil. that is SAE 40 rating. but i think casa are using SAE 90, if i'm not mistaken. so on my 30000 km c/up, i'm planning on using engine oil for my transmission..

**2Dmax** · August 21st, 2006 06:56 PM

DJERMS,

ca CONCORDE marami klase bulb. kaso overpriced ang concorde na yan.

**ian_rex** · August 21st, 2006 07:07 PM

Mobil Delvac 15W-40 Fully Synthetic. every 10K na lang ang palitan para sulit.

**wildthing** · August 21st, 2006 07:48 PM

Sino sa inyo merun ng factory service manual ng DMax - ung ala Hayes?

**Djerms** · August 21st, 2006 07:55 PM

Guys ingat lang sa paglagay ng oil not listed in the manual. There are oils na hindi compatible sa engine in terms of driving conditions. Yung trooper ko before nasa manual is mineral based oil lang. nung mag synthetic ako nagbabawas when used in sustained speed travel na long distance.

But kung hindi naman nagbabawas, I guess ok lang ang fully sinthetic.

**2Dmax** · August 21st, 2006 08:07 PM

Baka 10W-30 ung oil na un. not recommended in sustained high engine speed nga talaga un. recommended kasi sa klima natin is SAE ??W-40 or plain SAE 40. mas ok if fully synthetic basta rating nya sa last two digit is 40, dahil pag fully synthetic mas lesser ang molecular breakdown ng oil overtime kaya ung performance ng oil to lubricate halos hindi nagbabago..

**x_jason_x** · August 21st, 2006 08:20 PM

Ian rex,

saan nabibili yun reverse sensors na dinidikit lang??? yan ang gusto ko..

next change oil ko MOTUL na lalagay ko.. fluid force motul!

**Djerms** · August 21st, 2006 08:24 PM

Not sure na sa rating pero its the sythetic of Petron. But if ok naman ang oil consumption, I guess its alright to use fully synthetic oil.

**Djerms** · August 21st, 2006 08:26 PM

Guys,
How much ang labor cost (labor lang ha) ng 20tkms checkup?

**2Dmax** · August 21st, 2006 08:35 PM

guys, check this site: http://www.carryboy.com/3lock542.php

I think it's better to use this one than other alarm system available in the market. reliable, tough, will last a lifetime unlike electronic alarm system na hindi mo alam kung kailan masisira, unreliable. this one is more functional!

**Djerms** · August 21st, 2006 08:42 PM

2dmax,
Visit ka kay Rey's Autoelectrical sa marikina. Ask them to put on an ignition switch/kill. Ipatago mo, you can even put in 2 switches. Way back its only 700 petot a kit. Yan ang gamit ko before sa Trooper. HTH
