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]
