Isuzu Dmax Owners [ARCHIVED]

[agent_ysann]

ha?? 2,000 for a PMS sa casa??? mejo imposibe po sir ah.. heheheh.... ang crfv naman is every 10,000kms... but still kung purely change oil lang gawin sa honda nasa 2,000 rin mababayaran mo... diesel kc you just have to maintain the engine oil and filter... sa gasoline meron ka pa mga sparkplugs, etc...

5000km P2200 (change oil)
10000km P4200 (complete)
15000km P2100
20000km P4200
25000km P2100
30000km P3900

these are the amounts i paid for my PMS in my Fortuner 2.7G (rounded off to nearest hundreds). continuous interval lang, pero nung huli bumaba yung price (no idea why)...

ganun b.. sir icheck mo kung ano parts pinalitan baka meron lang replacement... hehehe... filter sa honda nasa 170+ lang and the oil kung honda orig gamitin nasa 2000 something ang price per gallon... but i chose not to, sabi nila extended waranty for 1 year daw sa engine if i use orig honda... i dont buy that kc honda engines are matibay naman and 4 years doesnt mean much use or abuse sa car na masira ang engine.... i only do less than a 10,000 kms per year... air cleaner and aircon filters ang mejo mahal banayaran ko the last time i had it checked sa honda...

sir, trooper lang ang mejo sosyal sa oil.. it needs a very specific oil.. dmax as long as multigrade yan, no prob... but be sure to use a 15w40 sa new dmax (crdi) it doesnt need a thick oil... ako im using a fully synthetic oil sa dmax namin but ours is the old one... but still i change oil very 5,000kms kahit naka fully synthetic ako kc you have to consider naman your filter, it wasnt designed to last more than 5,000 kms. pwede naman gamitin but baka barado or not performing at its best ang filter kung patagalin pa, be it a original or a replacement... i use MANN FILTER 10w40 fully synthetic.. european brand cya..

Mine is the 4x2 08 Dmax LS and with regards to the noise, for me it's really noisy especially when I arrive home during the wee hours, I could really hear the crackling of the engine and sometimes it makes me feel that there is something wrong with the engine - though I know there is none. I even think that it is noisier than my older truck.

With regards to top speed, I have no idea with the old one but with mine, the peak that I have reached was 174 kph and the needle just didn't want to go up anymore.

I have a neighbor who owns the old one and everytime we talk and I ask him how's his truck, he always tells me all praises. He said that he prefers driving it as compared to the Strada (the one prior to the latest model) since it is better in terms of FC and overall he said that he just prefers driving it.

I was also in a dilemma before I acquired my truck. I was considering the Strada, Hilux and Navara too and it was just so hard on what should I get. I was in the market for the 4x2 so in terms of looks, I immediately ruled out the Hilux since it terms of engine and exterior, it really couldn't grow on me. So what was left were Strada, Dmax and Navara. Of course at that time, price also came into play. As much as possible, I want the all in one package. For Strada, the bed is too small for me but the price is so reasonable particularly for the GLX variant considering that it has a powerful engine as well. For Navara, it is kinda pricey and I was kinda wishy washy on the 6 speed engine but overall, that is my kind of truck. Good looking, powerful engine, the wow factor is there. Then Dmax arrived in picture. Everything that I am looking for in a truck, I found it in Dmax, well as far as this generation is concerned. The looks, the engine, the size of the bed, size of interior, everything, the price is mediocre so I said I will get this one.

Now for the power or performance, I would say that it's not the fastest truck out there but it I could say that it could really run but don't expect to feed dust on the vehicle, particularly on the same level, if they want to give a little adrenalin rush. So much for the racing mode, if you're the kind of person who drives only from point A to point B and doesn't give a damn that even a biker could outrun you, well this truck would be way over your expectation. Its engine is powerful and very responsive. As I have said in my previous post, I peaked 174 kph and to me, that's already too much speed, though I want some more, considering that it's a truck. For fuel consumption, this one it varies on your driving style. If you drive like there is no tomorrow, don't expect it to give you the extra miles. But on the average, to me it registers around 12.5 km/liter. On its 1st 1500 kms, the most that I reached was more than 1000 + kms on 1 full tank. I just couldn't remember on the exact figures but back then, I was only on the 80 to 100 kph mark. For maintenance, I really couldn't comment on this yet since it is too early to tell. I haven't even reached my 3rd PMS yet. For the prices of the PMS, it's already posted so just look on the previous posts for reference.

For the others, I guess they are marketing gimmicks in terms of the radio or freebies but all in all, all the trucks that are in the market right now are at par with each other. In the end, it is still up to you on what really fits your taste and needs. Goodluck in your pickup hunting and hopefully I helped you in choosing the Dmax as your next vehicle.
