Sorry but I don't think there are any changes on the engine department. Thou what I know is there is a Limited Edition that'll be introduced alongside with the 2010 D-Max.... best to check this at your nearest ISUZU dealer.

Diesel engines require a huge amount of electricity when starting the vehicle. (specially those that still use GPs) Not to mention that pick-up/SUV/AUVs nowadays are equipped with all power features too.

2SM batteries would be ok why not.... but I fear that you may not be able to maximize the battery's life and may prematurely expire.

No problem, partner. Happy to be of help.

I would suggest you continue using your 2SM battery until it dies out. When you replace it, get a 3SM. I know it's more expensive than a 2SM but in the long run, it would end up "cheaper" due to maximized battery life (vs. 2SM)

If you are still having your rig maintained at the CASA, you need not have to worry for they have a checklist of the things to check and do on a particular mileage.

All you have to do (and make sure) is to being your rig for maintenance when it's due.

Benz ano bang magandang aftermarket na shock absorbers for my '06 DMax? Front and rear ang papalitan ko. Nagpalit na kasi ako at 40TKm kasi dumadapa na masyado yung front sa braking. I used KYB gas type, kaso ngayon malapit pa lang mag 60TKm masyado nang malaro yung ride.

Keywords ko sa gusto kong shocks ay comfort, stability and durability. Something that would last me 50TKm sana. Ano bang magandang shocks at magkano kaya ito?
