looking at other AT filters, this might have a foam-like material inside, saka parang hindi sya dinesign to be opened

although i'ved asked other AT owners and they did not replaced the filter at all, puro drain and fill ATF lang

[ParticleX]

around 6L pa lang na coolant ang nagagamit ko, mukhang below 7 ang icoconsume

hindi ko mahanap ang engine drain bolt para simot talaga

ang messy pala ng radiator drain nito, may nakaharang na metal piece (suspension related?) kaya hindi free-flowing na isang stream lang ang paglabas, kundi kalat

brake fluid is 2 x 150ml bottles, siphon lang from reservoir. pag mag palit na lang ng gulong magpa bleed

power steering is almost 2 liters. siphon old fluid, put new fluid, turn steering wheel, siphon, repeat mga 8x ata

rear diff around 2.4L

AT, ubos yung 4 x 1L cans

most AT filters like this i find just have a fine mesh steel and baffles sa loob. have yet to see one used with foam. baka kasi mag nag deteriorate yun foam lalo pa mapasama sa loob ng tranny.

I replaced mine earlier and also consume 6L of coolant. For the power steering fluid the mechanic siphon the old fluid and pour in new fluid i just use maybe half a liter of psf.

nakita ko kasi sa video na ito (skip to around 15:05) na on this particular vehicle, foam-like ang filter media nya

i wanted kasi the power steering reservoir to return to a pink color kaya we did the siphon-fill-turn activity several times

Okay I will try that for my next psf change. I just let the mechanic do his job. For your engine oil I noticed you are using the trekker is this much better than ordinary Rev-X diesel without the trekker?

tinanggal mo radiator hose sa baba? also the hose sa ilalim ng expansion tank?

Drain and fill. You mean sir dialysis the transmission? Yung iba kase dialysis talaga ginagawa.

hmm mukha nga dense na foam ano?

API-CI kasi ang Trekker while API-CF lang ata yung ibang nasa Rev-X lineup so theoretically mas better

hindi na, in our other vehicles na nag change coolant ako via DIY din, sa drain plug lang ako gumagalaw

drain and fill is yung normal method lang just like changing the engine oil

nakapag try na rin ako ng dialysis pero around 500 kasi itong T-IV, if i use 10L for the dialysis ang mahal nun. maintain na lang at the proper intervals

hmm mukha nga dense na foam ano?

onga e pero judging by the filter cutout, matagal pa lifespan nya

2-4liters din kasi yun nasa waterpump side na hose. though as you said changing at proper intervals should be fine.

Pwede nqmqn siguro i-run yun makina sir for a short period of time para ma-drain pa yun iba coolant?

not needed sir, drain the rad and the hoses lng. proper coolant to prevent rust. the coolant will have enough inhibitors to prevent rust even if the retained coolant is old.

typical mistake is using distilled.. ayun sira mga rads nila sa kalawang.

Should it be using tap or mineral water? because distilled water is already purified water that is should be free for impurities.

neither, po.
it is not so much about impurities, po, as it is the additives.
with today's metal alloy engines and radiators, manufacturers add anti-oxidation additives to the coolant, to prevent metal from... oxidizing and leaking.
water, whether tap or mineral or distilled, has none.
coolant has.

btw,
no no to mineral water, including the drinking variety and deep well water (artesian well, poso water, "hard water"). the minerals tend to precipitate out and solidify, when heated by the engine.
use them only in an emergency.

OT history.
in the 60s and 70s, when the diversion roads (now slex and nlex) were quite new, the authorities provided at intervals, emergency water storage receptacles (overturned concrete drainage tubes, 3-4 feet wide), for overheating engines and the like. uso pa noon ang overheating sa highway, even as the ends of the diversion roads were in alabang and in tabang only.

no worries bro. youre "graduate" level now against rust hehehe. we just have remind some when draining the coolant. a simple mention helps a few.

[oj88]

Just to be thorough... you can use distilled water. BUT only for mixing with coolants that are sold as a concentrate and requires a 50/50 mix.

Eto familiar sakin. Kso napakadumi ng tubig dito. Worst case scenario talaga.

Last i saw one of these was in nlex, in the early 2000s

That should be the case....😊😊😊
