Guys!
May alam kayo saan nakakabili ng crush guard na gaya nito?




Pinitik kasi yung chrome sa original ko kaya ang pangit tignan.
Kaya naisip ko mag-upgrade nalang sa ganito.
Saan kaya may mura? Kahit hindi brand new, oks lang. Carryboy ang brand. TIA

papsy alam ko sa Shark iyang design na iyan "Shark Nudge Gear " ang tawag, pwede mo i-check sa website nila www.sharkphil.com

Paps Chito meron ding Carryboy na ganito, nakita ko sa brochures nila. . .

to Kafph2000, sabi mo yong original chrome ng bumper mo ay pinitik? so would it mean yong 2004 below model yon, yong nasa metal plate sa overrider? pagnilagyan mo pa ng Nudge Gear, parang ang haba na non. . . unless tangal mo nalang overrider, then kabit the nudge. . .

pero kung gaya ng pix above unit mo. . . maganda ngang tingnan ang nudge gear. . . may class ang dating...

Correct ka bro, 2003 model ang sakin. Kaso pinarada ko lang saglit sa kalye, pagbalik ko may pumitik na ng chrome! Pero syempre, tanggalin ko muna yung overrider bago ko ikabit yung nudge guard( if ever makabili ). Nagagandahan talaga kasi ako sa dating ng nudge guard na 'to, classy.

Carryboy yan...sa carryboy ka mismo makakakuha nyan sa Banawe. Ganyan na ganyan yung akin sa carryboy ko kinuha, it cost me Php7,500.00. Pero parang mas nagandahan ako nung shark brand. same price lang din.

I would just stay to plain diesel fuel for the crosswind, adding kerosene is an undesired additive, and it would void any valid isuzu warranty.

I currently own a 2007 MT Sportivo, so far no problems and very reliable.
My wife refuses to drive a manual transmission and prefers the automatic model. What is the reliability of the Isuzu automatic transmissions, any history of failure or consistent problems. the automatics are not very common, so hope to hear from this group.

No worries on the AT variants of the Crosswind. Just make sure to follow the recommended PMS (servicing) schedule and you're good. Drain your ATF every 20k mileage.

gud pm xwind gurus, i owned xwind XUVi 2004 AT. since the 1st day i drive and owned this unit when i parked i always put the transmission in P mode, but this past few weeks i put it in N mode, before and after starting and switching off the engine.

but this afternoon my dad borrowed my unit, and just this evening when i'm about to drive it is in P mode then i started the engine then engaged in R mode, nafeel ko na parang matigas cya iengaged in R mode, mga five times ko inulit ulit, pero try ko from N to R or D ok naman. Matigas lang pag nasa P to R. pero ok naman ang shifting and takbo ng sasakyan.

Mga gurus, ano kaya nagyari sa transmission ko, mali ba yung gingawa ko this past few weeks na before and after starting and switching off the engine sa N ko siya nilalagay? Parang kinabahan kasi ako kng anong ngyari sa AT ko.

I have a problem with my Isuzu Crosswind XT 2007.

When I am stuck in a steep slope (like SM Megamall parking) --- the first gear has very low power -- almost cannot move and the engine stop.

Ano kaya problem nito?

Thanks

Hi Guys,

Can you discuss the advantages and disadvantages between MT and AT Isuzu Crosswind?

[bogart26]

* sir noel, im no expert para sakin pinaka advantage ng A/T ay mas maginhawa siyang i-drive(hindi ka masyadong pagod) pero MT crosswind namin...

mga sir, san po ba makikita ang turbo kit ng crosswind? hinahanap ko kasi noong isang araw pa, sa 2010 XUV. and ask lang ako sa steering wheel play ng mga crosswind niyo, kasi yung amin siguro may tig 1 inch on both sides na extra "play" or pag ginalaw ko yung manibela indi agad gagalaw yung gulong... pasensya na hindi ko ma-explain ng maayos yung tungkol sa steering wheel hindi ko kasi alam yung right term, napa check nung 5k pms and inayos na DAW sa casa pero kasi ganun padin my extra play pa... normal lang ba ito? kasi yung mazda 3 hindi ganun, pag ginalaw mo yung manibela sunod agad yung gulong... again, hindi ko po alam yung right term, sa mga makaka-intindi paki sagot na lang po. thanks!

[rademamj]

For me the advantage of a MT transmission is less maintenance, faster shifts and better control of the diesel engine power + torque. An automatic is more suited for congested city driving (like EDSA) and for those who find it hard to use a clutch (like my wife). An automatic also requires frequent change of the ATF for quality performance.

In the USA, about 85% of personal vehicles are automatics now. Some brands like Honda have excellent automatics, while Ford has experienced some reliability problems with their automatics. This is why i am most interested in the overall reliability of the Isuzu automatic transmissions.

Assuming you have released your parking brake before experiencing this problem, i suggest its possible clutch related, so bring in your XT for a service checkup?

Ang sa akin naman 2005 sportivo, walang play ang steering wheel.

i bought air cleaner/air filter for crosswind/sportivo, i forgot kung ano yung face up. yung may hole ba ang face up?

Thank you for your reply...I am sure I am not using the hand brake as I do not normally use it during short stop on steep slope. I will try to ask for checkup on the clutch as you suggested.... Thanks again...rademamj
