Suzuki JIMNY [merged threads]

[n_spinner06]

*krypt09 I also hope it is something that can be avoided with proper periodic maintenance. Kaya lang based on what I've read so far, death wobble on the Jimny is very common. This is the only thing preventing me from buying one because I really like this car. See this.. https://youtu.be/vxn5hp890og

I raised the same concern before and if you read a few pages back, you will find the following solution...if all stock - tire balancing and wheel alignment...if modified (suspension liftn tire upgrade, etc) - install a steering damper

Gusto ko sana magpa install ng steering damper hehe

[waver]

Thanks spinner, nice to know there's a solution to the steering wheel wobble. Its just making sure you have proper wheel alignment..

I like to have a jimny someday, looks like a good runabout vehicle, hows the pure city FC(mt) and the ride?

[Mavic_Rim]

I am now in a process of owning a Jimmy. Told my wife gift ko sa kanya. My plan after 2 or 3 years my pang off-road dedicated toy na ako, hehehe.
Now my question po is where is a good place to buy/install a safari snorkel and air locker?
Maraming salamat po,

[crazy_boy]

FC for city driving ng manual is around 7km/l.

as for snorkel, Safari kay RATS. pag TJM airtec kay Ride Banawe.

Mga sirs,
Tanong ko lang po kung anong mgandang pamalit sa stock na battery.
Jimny 2013 MT stock no mods yet, ang orig po na battery ay FB as per spec po 30b20r or 55b24r
What brand po ang ok? Any suggestion po?
Ano po ba ang kaparehas nito sa mga batteries sa market?
Patulong nmn po, Thanks in advance.

* n_spinner06, kuha ka na bilis :-)!
Yung sa akin nga bought a kulambo and all and plan not to use it to preserve it. Gamit ko ibang sasakyan, kaya lang di ko rin matiis di gamitin kse masarap talaga syang gamitin :-).
My daughter and son already told me pag mag drive na sila gusto din nila Jimny :-).

Btw, almost wherever I go, meron kumakausap sa akin about the jimny. Laging pinupuri yung Jimny. Di ko naranasan to pag ibang sasakyan dala ko wala naman pumupuri hehe. Iba talaga tong Jimny (sige promote pa!).

Kailangan maging practical sir. Masmura pa rin maintenance at running costs ng existing hilander kesa sa brand new na jimny...😀

1SN reverse polarity ang Jimny.

Dito sa tsikot sikat ang Amaron Hi-Life battery.

I replaced the stock with Motolite maintenance free. NS20 I think but just ask motolite and they would know the model.

Congrats bro and happy bday to the wifey! Try shell 95. Petron XCS may cause engine rattling.

Thanks a lot Bro,
so far it's my daughter is driving it for her Mom.
Her initial impression is medyo matigas daw young gas and brake pedal.
Driving daw is fun but a bit slow to accelerate as she compare it to our Tucson 2.0,
Too bad, I would be able to drive it by October pa.

Normal po ba yung kanyang observation?

Congrats din sa new Jimny mo! I am sure your daughter and wife would love the Jimny!
AT ba yung kinuha mo? Normal naman yung slow acceleration. Para nga syang electric car hehe. Pero very nice to drive yan very dynamic. I just don't know about the brakes and gas pedal na medyo matigas? Baka pa adjust mo after 1,000 km check up.

About sa gas, tama si dreamur, medyo nagkaroon ng engine rattling sound (katok) Jimny ko after 2 months of using Petron XCS kaya I shifted to Blaze. Ang ganda ng Blaze! Pero now I am trying Shell 95 octane for about 1 1/2 months now, mas mura kse hehe. Ok naman sya although this morning parang medyo meron akong na feel na konting konting rattling. I will observe this first mga 2-3 months ko pa evaluate Shell 95. Yung bio ethanol element ata ang culprit sa mga ganitong issues. Blaze kse walang ethanol content.
