Isuzu Dmax Owners [ARCHIVED]

[jarhead]

but i guess it would differ din sa gmit mo... if parati lng short trip ang bnabyahe mo.. malamang madali lang masira batt kc kulang sa charge lang yan.. but kung parati long trip tatagal cguro... matibay din yun motolite na gold ata yun.. thats what we used sa mazda pick up namin dati.. 2 years namin ginamit yun til nabenta hindi ko pa napalitan... hehehehe....

[isketi]

I've been using Motolite Excel maintenance free ever since. Lasts me 3 years on average. Wala namang lumobo sa mga naging battery ko. Pag kabit, forget!

Guys,

Gusto ninyo mag-EB this saturday? Morning para iwas traffic. Very casual EB lang for Dmax peeps! Say Ortigas area?

[ian_rex]

i figured that, a battery life would last longer when most of your driving are done during the day.

[Djerms]

Ian_rex,
Ang galilng mo naman! Pati ito napapansin mo. hehe.

Kamusta na kaya bodyrepair ni Kurt? He textd me last time, nasabitan yata siya ng isang dmax din sa door. Hope repairs turn out well.

[ian_rex]

djerms, actually, ganun ka-close ko namomonitor yung mga sasakyan sa amin. hehehe. no actually, based on experience din. yun lang kasi ang pinakabisyo ko e. magbuting-ting. as for the battery, it figures. less load(electrical, that is) means longer battery life. at sabi din sa akin nang isang friend ko na dating natrabaho sa outlast, pag bago ang batterya, dapat di muna gamitin sa pag jumpstart nang sasakyan na weak ang batterya. kasi masisira mga plates at iiksi lang ang buhay nang batterya.

isa pa pala. alam nyo ba yung plastic cover sa engine bay, yung kulay gold na nakapaibabaw sa valve cover? pag inalis yun, mas less ang rattling sound nang makina. i figured its because hindi masyado nagre-resonate yung engine noise.

ano ba nangyari sa dmax ni kurt? sa akin nga nagasgas ang front bumper kc my bro used it and nahirapan cya sa isang parking sa mall and mejo masikip ang driveway, hindi nya napansin tumama na pala sa wall ang bumper... kawawa dmax ko... but nabunggo ko rin sa iasng lamp post ang rear bumper ko kc hindi ko napansin while i was backing up... hehehehe...

wala pa results insurance ng other party, pero cooperative naman sya. as long as ganito treatment sakin no hard feelings. (my vehicle was on-street properly parked and un-attended, it was a wide street good enough for 4 vehicles to pass along without problems, with no rushing traffic and yet his rear (and extended) bumper hit my left rear door while backing out of his parking)

repair est ko from i.pasig is upto 30k. my gosh. calling for the complete replacement of the door panel na 20k++.

yeah right, like the other party's insurance will approve of this. i think a high price range of 7-8k from a 5star body repair will be satisfactory.

ps-ot
last night a taxi clipped the left side rear bumper of my corolla. he swerved from 2 lanes to my left to before the concrete barrier dividing vehicles going to plaza dilao and nagtahan. i was going to nagtahan, he was on the lane going to plaza dilao til the last moment he also decided to go to nagtahan. again swerving to my lane and hitting me.

2 hits using 2 different cars in less than 1 week or 5 days apart. both times i was not the cause both times damage to the cars might be extensive or costly but can be corrected perfectly or even replaced and no injuries to anyone.

always practice defensive driving. will always give thanks to Jesus for blessings like these.

thanks

papalitan ba door mo kurt? ok lang yan basta irepair and mabalik sa dati and cooperative naman ang nakabangga sayo and basta no comment lang siya kung darating na ang time ayosin ang dmax mo..... eh insurance nya naman magbayad nyan eh.. papalitan mo nalng ang door... hehehehehe.......

[Djerms]

Kurt,
Ganyan talaga pag minamalas. Nangyari na sakin yan to the point na nakakapraning na magdala ng sasakyan. Anyway dont forget to have your vehicles blessed pala...bigla ko lang naalala.

Ian_rex,
Thanks for the tip sa engine cover. Matagal ko na gusto tanggalin yun. Paano ba? It looks sooo cheesy!

Ipagpatuloy mo ang pagbubutingting at nang mas marami ka pa maipamahagi samin!
