Bros I need help. The 2.5l D4D of my hilux is dying. Mechanic said that it needs an overhaul or an engine swap. The mechanic said I over revved it and the engine just knocked. Hindi niya kinaya yung bitukang manok sa Quezon with 6 people in it.

I need to ask if you could help me find a surplus or 2nd hand 3.0l D4D engine. Will it be a simple swap? I plan on using the 2.5l's manual transmission and how much is the engine gonna cost. Please help. Thanks

[mang_Juan]

double post sorry po

siguro sir mas maganda bili na lang kayo ng segundamanong buong pick up kesa buhayin nyo pa uli yan baka maliit lang ang deperensya..

or pabiyak nyo yung makina sa precision sa may roces QC, yung mga gumagawa ng mga kumatok na makina... ok magtrabaho dun...

[bossing47]

ok ang hilux o vigo sa ibang bansa... ang problema pag dating dito, talo tayo sa makina... 102HP lang ang 4x2 iwan sa ibang kalaban na brand...

[bossing47]

mga sir ok ba performance ng 2.5 G na manual tranny? sino sa inyo meron... pa kwento naman...

nagdadalawang isip kasi ako kasi matagtag daw saka iwan sa arangkada kumpara halimbawa sa navara...

[kevin3000]

halos lahat naman ng pickup matagtag.. performance ok naman matulin considering na its only 102hp

[bossing47]

thanks sir kevin...
yung iba naman inputs naman dyan ahehehe...
kakaunti tao dito sa hilux thread... sa nissan navara madami.. saka sa isuzu dmax ahehehehe...

[ydreph962]

medyo matagtag nga kaya ginawa ko 29psi lang ang tire pressure..nagimprove konti..ok lang sa tulin pero diko pa natry ihataw at ikarera..sa pag overtake ay ok lang..pero ibang iba sa hataw at ride ng kotse..maninibago ka kung sanay ka sa kotse..di hirap tumakbo ng 90 to 100kph..di ko pa nasubukang sumobra pa dun..siguro pag bumyahe ako malayo masusubukan ang bilis ng hilux..

[kevin3000]

natry ko na 170kph

no offense sir,.. try mo lang ung 3.0 para masiyahan kayo. but kung tulin talaga type mo eh sa navara kayo. un naman 1st choice nyo di ba? go for it...

my budget only permit me to buy 4x2
besides 3liter engines are only availble sa 4x4
and a friend of mine who happens to own one eh sabi di ko daw magagamit or hindi practical ang 4x4, once a month lang daw nya nagagamit pag namumundok sya...

nope hilux talaga ang 1st choice ko,but I happen to own a innova V
my brother had a fortuner, so pag hilux isa na lang kumpleto na IMV collection hahahahaha... so this is the reason why I shop around then nakit ko nga ang magandang review ng navara...

I also look at dmax(reliable engine) and strada(nice ride, good HP) magaganda sila matataas, kaso bitin ako sa bed.. so dumating ako sa navara at magaganda ang review nya, hindi lang dito pati abroad, I even joined the NCP forum... mababait silang lahat, very informative mga hirit nila...

so nag trim daw sa dalawang choices kasi halos magkasinglaki ng bed ang hilux and navara... dun ako nag research ng konti...

so at the end of the day, iisipin mo yung reliability, yung ground clearance(kasi bahain lugar namin), saka yung good resale value...

mahirap iwan yung navara kasi nakapag test drive ako ok ang ride, mabilis... kaso nga lang mababa.. saka di ko pa alam kung baka pag kargahan mo eh lumundo agad yung leaf spring nya... kasi nga maganda ang ride eh... marami akong di alam kaya abot abot yung queries ko heheheh

mahirap talagang mamili mga sir kaya kung saang saang forum ako sumasali ahehehehe...

nice ride you have there sir patriarch...

[ThePatriarch]

nice ride you have there sir patriarch...

hehe thanks...

hilux is a good choice sir... and kahit konti ang nagpo-post dito compared dun sa other brands, i can assure you that they are good, honest and humble tsikoteers who truly love their rides

[mang_Juan]

*bossing47: I can attest sir na mabilis ang 2.5 na hilux. I usually drive it more than 100kph whenever roads permit it. As for carrying strength I usually load it with 500 kilos of rice (10 sacks) and the back goes down about 3 inches. I have driven my hilux in flood water almost reaching the hood and it didn't die on me.

after 5 years of use and abuse(including the usual burnout, carrying 15 sacks of rice max, getting involved in 2 accidents[damage was purely cosmetic], drifting, 111 thousand kilometres on the odometer) the only serious issue was because of motor oil wherein i have to overhaul the hilux engine. If you can please use semi-synthetic, synthetic or CRDi motor oil.

[bossing47]

now people are talking here... mabuhay po ang thread na ito ahehehe...

salamat din sir ThePatriarch... nasa me ari din talga ikakaganda ng ride nila, segun sa gamit at pangangailangan... at syempre sa paniniwala.. to each his own ika nga...

kasi walang pinakamagandang basehan kungdi yung experience ng meron ng me ari..

again salamat po uli...

[ydreph962]

ok saludo ako sa patotoo ni mang juan..patunay na matibay din ang hilux..my pick up is only 2 months old and it's nice to read a nice review from a reliable 5yr old pick up..
medyo malungkot nga lang sa hilux thread..

[mang_Juan]

The hilux is a very capable truck indeed. Sana nga lang kasing lakas siya ng foreign versions niya pero I still love it.
