Hi, ask ko lang kung naexperience niyo na medyo nagstuck up yung front right power window ng APV niyo? Usually kung gamit mo yung switch sa front right window ganun yung problem. Pag sa driver side na switch yung ginamit naman napansin ko medyo mabagal ang pag akyat niya.

Mine is a 2009 SGX A/T. 34,500 km na sa odometer. Since 3 years/100,000 km naman ang warranty, sasagutin naman ng Suzuki yung problem na ito diba? 2nd time na ako nag warranty claim. First was a defect with the steering column. May knock ako naririnig pag dumadaan ng lubak. That was around 10,000 km at the odometer.

My mom is driving a 2008 Type 1 GLX A/T. So far wala naman problems. Mas laspag ng konti ang APV ko though since siya 3 years na pero 32,000 km palang pero ako in 2 years 34,500 na.

Thanks!

hello boss, yep na-experience ko na din yan but on different ride.. problema nyan boss ay yung power window motor boss, reason why gumagana sa driver side is because naka-centralize mechanism ang windows nya.. kung magpapalit ka ng motor i have no idea how much.. kung sa casa it should be free of charge kung sakop pa ng warranty... and if di mo pa na-vovoid yung warranty sasagutin ng casa yan, i hope you know what i mean boss..

anyway, you can join us our forum at Club Suzuki Philippines Online Community - Index thanks!

Sige pacheck ko hopefully within the week or after November 1. Wala naman ako ginawang mods sa kotse ko so sagot naman yung warranty yan.

Just joined CSP. Thanks for the invite!

For those who criticize the APV when not climbing up the mountains, the pistons and rings in the engine are very tight, it means lots of friction because they set it to a hundredths of a millimeter, so almost zero in tolerances. That's why they recommended the break-in period (5000 kilometers) with up to 4000 rpm only when shifting (for sticks), to remove little less metal from moving parts until the correct tolerances are met, when that happens, the friction reduced thus improving power and fuel economy. When switching to synthetic oils, the engine is now much smoother running, crisp throttle response and fuel economy improved even further. Our APV's mileage is now 1300 kms. and Cebu is a very small place compared to manila and Luzon. I'll try to climb up the mountains similar conditions to Bagiuo with 8 souls with AC placed at #3 speed the temp. control knob pointing to blue area (colder) after 5000 kms with oil changed to syn oils. This is the time you'll test the APV's capabilities and you'll be surprised.

maayo buntag! ask ko lang update sa break in mo and if nag improve ba fuel consumption. by the way is your apv a GA or type II? salamat
