just an insight guys, mejo imposible naman that the casa wont change your oil or the necesary thing sa PMS kc meron din sila quota sa oils and lubricants that they need to fullfill kaya papalitan talaga nila yan... sa mga parts naman, naka keep track din ang planta kun gbakit hindi masyado nagmove ang parts nila, specially the filters and consumable parts... kaya mejo malabo magpalusot ang casa sa service nila... maybe meron pinapagawa ang owner but pahabol na and hindi na naperform sa technician kc nagipit sa oras, etc. or meron nagclaim ng waranty tapos hindi na honored cause of some reasons... marami cuases why the customers would say bad or pangit ang service sa casa na yun...![]()
2Dmax,
Oil I bought from casa is Shel Rimula X (7 liters for dmax AT - but I only used 5.5Liters). I think its around P130.00 per liter. Its almost the same price outside. Basta all orig parts (fliuds and filters) cost me PhP5,700.00.
If I were you, just buy your oil and other fluids outside casa. Ang bilihin mo nalang sa casa are the filters and the washer. Why? because damn casa charged me almost PhP800 for VAT! Sa suking auto supply wala nun!
mdyo pangit na rin kasi impression ko sa CASA. dati ngpachange oil ako sa CASA, aba akalain mo ba namang one inch above the maximum ang oil level ko. naisip ko tuloy baka topping up lang ang ginawa. so immediately nagpa-change-oil ulit ako sa suking petron. although hindi naman lahat ng CASA ganun..
2Dmax,
If you want, I can refer you and accompany you one saturday sa Petron (Marikina) mechanic ko. He has been working on our rigs for the past 5 years now and I can vouch for him in the technical know hows when it comes to repairs and maintenance. Malinis at masinop din siya.
He did my 20tkms pms with no problems and the good thing was I was there supervising his work.
Just tell me if you want his service.
ahhh. akala ko sa CASA ka nagpagawa. ang mura lang kasi ng labor. sa PETRON ba mismo kaw nagpagawa? ang hindi ko lang kayang gawin is ung:
1. HUB BEARING GREASE REPACK
2. VALVE CLEARANCE ADJUSTMENT
3. BRAKE and CLUTCH fluid change
4. FUEL FILTER CHANGE
sige samahan mo ko minsan. set natin. how much kaya aabutin ng labor alone nito? anong grasa ginamit mo sa HUB BEARING? dala na lang ako ng ibang materyales. and ung sinasabi mo bang washer is ung sa oil pan? kindly PM me ur CP#.. thanks a lot..
guys, what up na sa thread natin? but nawala ata mgatao... anyway, hows the funrun to bacolod or dumguete going?
mga friends who are dmax owners, me tanong yung cousin ko, sana matulungan natin siya magdecide. 4x2 LS ang tinitingnan niya sa dealer.
in a nutshell, considering the model age of dmax and the current competition, would you still buy the Dmax if u were to buy a new pickup at this time?
why and why not?
Well as for me, I've been trying to get the mods to make this a sticky na since it practically has the same views/posts of other Threads like "Pick-up lover". I wonder what qualifies a thread to be sticky.
As for the funrun to Bacolod, I was just waiting for some to tap me na, ako go na go na weeks ago pa hehehe. But as I view the great unit of Srbogoy, I now know what has kept him pre-occupied. Bai, you really love your Max there! Love the side skirts!
Again mga mods, baka po pwede na kaming maging sticky thread.![]()
Memphis ,, tnx Bai, musta fiesta celeb sa Dumaguete. Bai alam mo ba kung pang ilan rear leaf spring (molye) ang tanggalin para mejo masoft ang ride ng max?
jsut to give you guys an idea. This is what I did to my isuzu pick-up tfs rear spring packs before changing to OME leaf springs.
If your confidante buys the current Dmax, talo siya. I am an owner of Common rail disesel engine SUV and at the same time of a vehicle that is the same breed with the Elf truck. It makes wonders to drive a diesel now (with CRDi) without the truck like ride.
