Just had my 51K PMS it cost me 4,850 baht include motor oil, oil filter, aircon filter, engine air filter and adjust my stopping power in my own request and also reflash my ECU and upgrade my ECU version to 5.

Good day sir dadz!

tanong ko po sana kung ano yung purpose ng reflashing ng ECU and benefits of upgrading it? saka compulsary po ba yun if we reach that certain amount of mileage?

thanks!

thats my most concern when i have my Nissan eagle.

need advice, any other precaution? TIA

That is a good one bro nismo kasi ako 50K na naka limutan ko pa check yung bearing ko but i think kung hindi mo naman nilulusong sa tubig hindi naman siya masyadong masisira agad but surely next week i will have mine check.

Salamat sa pa alala na kalimutan ko kasi.

due to numerous complaints and emergency calls that i have received from members regarding the sudden lighting up of the check engine light indicator, here is what you have to do and look for, in case this happens to you.....

1. warning lights up, depends on what the problem is you may or may not feel any difference in the engine response, but in the event that your engine suddenly looses it's power and you hear a very loud vacuum noise and vehicle speed will suddenly drop down to 15-20 kph.... don't fret...this is only the automatic engine safety feature, it will allow you to drive at a very very very slow pace but still with the loud noise. when this happens try to pull over.
2. open your hood
3. go to the right side of the engine compartment and look inside. during the day this will be easy, but at night get a flash light
4. follow the rubber hose that starts from the air filter intake box that goes down into the bowels of the engine!!! hehehehehe ayy ooo nga pala, mag ingat at napaka init ng makina ha!!!! hayaan ninyo muna lumamig ng kaunti yung makina!! heheheheh
5. the rubber hose will lead you to the intake of the turbo charger....
6. if the loud vacuum sound accompanied the check engine light....100% of the time this hose has come undone from the tube/pipe that it is supposed to be clamped to...thus the loud annoying sound.
7. check if the hose clamp is still attached, if it is still there, you can re attach it, all you need is a number 8 or 10 wrench.
8. if the check engine light is up but there is no noise, still check this hose connection and re tighten/reposition the hose. there is most probably a leak from the clamp.
9. go to where you had your last pms/servicing and curse the world out of the SA's and their service crew for a stupid job.

if there are any other questions regarding this, just fire away or give me a call.

happy driving!!!

I just had my 1K PMS today at Diamond Motors Marcos Highway. Following is the breakdown of my expenses for our GLX:

Turbo XP Motor Oil (8 liters) - 4,000.00
Oil Filter - 828.00
Varsol - 85.27
Rags - 10.71

NET AMOUNT - 4,923.98
VAT (12%) - 590.88
TOTAL AMOUNT - Php 5,514.86

Have confirmed with the Service Manager that our next change of motor oil is at 10K PMS since what we used is Fully Synthetic. For our 5K PMS, we will just need a Top Up of about 1 liter of Fully Synthetic oil and a change of the oil filter. He also mentioned that with Fully Synthetic oil you may opt not to idle your engine (for a few minutes) before switching it off. It is because there is enough oil that sticks to the turbine that can protect it upon engine shut off.

So far, I was satisfied with the service I received at Diamond Motors in Marcos Highway. It was also good that they have a viewing deck so that you can see what they're doing to your unit. Pwede ka ring bumaba sa service area to talk to the service crew.

twister, hi. i am sorry but if you're wondering if i have a car shop or talyer, i don't... i am in the line of heavy earthmoving and heavy construction. so basically i have the facilities and the manpower to do my own servicing and maintenance work. i sort of have an understanding with the casa regarding teh servicing that i do, basically put, what they can do i can usually do better except for when it comes to checking the engine computer hehehehehehe

i can recommend to you a branch of diamond motors where you can take your future strada. the service manager is a very good friend of mine and is frequently visited by other members upon my recommendation. but i don't think it would be fair for me to say who and which branch it is, as i only endorse members of the club to my friend. i do hope you understand.
