Suzuki JIMNY [merged threads]

[K.I.L.L.]

^sir, try to check CarZone in Banawe. The owner also drives a jimny. Was able to talk to the owner and nakapag ayos na sila ng Jimny aircon using Starex fan + bigger condenser. This will make the a/c much much colder than stock daw. Try to get in touch with them to inquire. Name of the owner is Johnny

CB, you had your AC serviced there before?

Nope. Isa iba. But so far kasi wala pang major prob AC ng jimny.

I go to Carzone for PMS. Sometimes sa Powertorq, depending on the workload of carzone. It gets full most of the time

Guys, just to update you...

my wife opted to bring the Jimny to the nearby Frigid Zone for aircon repair. They were quick to diagnose a broken auxiliary fan motor. As a consequence, one of the the aircon valves heated up and leaked, and also needed replacing. Luckily no other components were damaged.

The shop recommended a substitute fan motor, meant for the Mitsubishi Montero; much more expensive than the Starex fan, pero salpak lang. No need for makeshift brackets unlike the latter.

Parts replacement + Freon + labor cost P8,000. 6 month warranty... fyi. A little over 2 hrs. work.

hello Jimny thread! Naginstall kasi ako ng 4 x Pioneer 180w peak power and 30 RMS sa Jimny ko. Naginstall din ako ng touchscreen Head unit. ang tanong ko, Madadamage kaya nito ang alternator ko at battery? DC connection lang. walang amplifier etc. Ilang kaya ating ng Alternator ng jimny 2017? thanks!

Pag fan motor lang, our resident expert Zix can do it. Same naman sa montero yung fan motor

Pioneer avha205bt / pioneer coax 4inch front rear / LLdt tweets / kinetic 4x80 amp / ADS sub / sealed box / wisdomholy panel

Hi dreamur. Yes, it's good to be back. Re-connected right away with CB (Crazy Boy) here in the thread. He used to own a Gen 2.5 Pajero so we were both quite active in that thread sometime back.

Thanks for the welcome.

CB is ever present.

On and off na din ako sa tsikot. Busy with work na now hehe

Excited to see the jimny of Paj4x4. Naka line up na upgrades niya hehe

Hi CB! Ako din excited na. Dami lang gastos. Papa alam pa kay Mrs hehe. Hopefully next week ma approve na.

By the way sarap drive ng Jimny ha. Upon getting it and sensing it was properly maintained, we took it up to Baguio. It kept pace with my 100 and 80 series. No issue encountered whatsoever. FC was 11.5km/liter going up.

Sa City sarap din gamitin. Ang liksi! Best of all my daughter loves it.

quick off the line ang jimny, but mababa final gear kaya not that fast sa top speed hehe but im contented with it.


went to Gears Banawe for the my next upgrade. already got the kit, will have it installed baka next week ready na for some river and baha crossing!

[paj4x4]

Nice CB! Ok na upgrade yan para may peace of mind ka pag nag river crossing.

Yes, when we went up to Baguio we cruised at just 105kph. Max we did was 123-130kph. Ok na sa akin mag cruise at 100-105kph. Hehe.

Nice! Based on what I read so far, installing a bigger aux fan and insulating the cold line from the engine bay heat, does the trick and greatly improves the performance of the AC system

ang alam ko starex aux fan daw dapat. yung montero fan motor, alam ko same size sa stock ng jimny.

so far ok pa A/C ng jimny ko. stock pa everything. added insulation sa cold line before, but was advised by my aircon tech to remove it since no noticeable gain naman daw.

[paj4x4]

Nice CB. Same here lucky that the AC of the Jimny I got for my daughter is a ok also.

Actually prepared na ako dalin sa ever reliable AC shop ko (Rex Aves) yung Jimny when I got it a few weeks ago. Buti na lang there was no need

Malakas daw ang motor ng aux gan ng montero. Naayos na ang problem ko sa aircon. Hehe
