FC update for the old jimny.
14.8km/l for probinsya driving.

Not bad. 3 passengers and a couple of buko and baggage at the back.

Hi fellow Jimny owners, maybe you can help confirm. CASA is claiming that Jimnys (mine is 2017 model not the new one) have no aircon filter. May abang lang daw. So they recommend magkakabit daw sila aircon filter . Just wanted to know if its true that Jimny indeed had no aircon filter before. Thanks

this is certainly not suzuki-related, but
my first gen innova did not have one, either.
the local aircon man in banawe cut a window on the plastic housing, so's i can place in it the air filter element.
i hope yours already has this window, so's you do not have to cut to make one.

Thanks Dr. D.. I thought all cars nowadays have an aircon filter and casa was trying to pull one of me.
May abang naman na daw.. I guess I'll have it installed then.. I think its better to have one than not have one

Yes, Suzuki PH has switched to Indian-made Jimny

Suzuki Philippines has now officially made the switch: their popular mini 4x4 model, the Jimny, will no longer be sourced from Japan. Instead, Philippine-market Jimny units will now come from India. It was confirmed to us by a senior representative of Suzuki Philippines after Indian-made Jimny units started appearing at Suzuki dealers all over the country.

If you have a pinging/knocking M-engined Suzuki, check your knock sensor on the block under the intake manifold, between the alternator & the starter. Chances are the resin cover is gone.
One might easily be tempted w/ cheap replacements, but only use GENUINE for this sensor.
On a JB43, this can only be accessed by removing the flexible intake hose & the alternator....way easier & simpler than the shop manual way of taking the intake manifold off, requiring new gaskets.

Broken vent blade? Easy fix... Paper clip + baking soda + superglue + touch up paint.[emoji4]

Salamat! Curious, para saan iyong baking soda?

It's a moving part. Superglue alone won't hold for long. A bit of baking soda around the clip + a drop or 2 of glue turns it into a solid resin tougher than epoxy.[emoji4]

recycling marks says PC + ABS. these plastics can be bonded w/ these. btw misleading yung name coz they're not epoxies very nasty smell. very strong bond on compatible plastics coz they sort of dissolve the substrates

but won't work on PP and PE
