Meron syang konting kabig sa kanan, ang sabi tie-rod end, yung nga bang ang cause nun?..TIA

Talaga 400k+ kms na? na-ovehaul narin siguro iyan? kung hinde pa, ang galing naman ang maintenance .

Hi guys, wife is really insisting on a jimny next year. Ask ko lang how is the ride. 1.3 lang sya so i guess sa highway not as fast as you would want? Mataas sya na mapayat, while cornering does it feel like its going to tilt a bit? Plus there are no airbags, how do you feel with regards sa safety. Thanks

as for the engine, basta naman well maintained matibay naman yan

congrats on your new ride!

Since 4x4 ang jimny sir it is built tough it's built for off road sir and the 1.3engine will suffice as you'll just cruise sa hiways and 80kph to a 100 is decent.

Sa kabig sir better have it checked or aligned sa mga under chassis shops like servitek and the like po.

I have a 2015 Jimny. 8kms/liter city driving, 14kms/liter highway driving. kaya naman niya 120kph sa highway but comfortable driving speed is 100kph. sa cornering naman okay lang, except siguro kung kaskasero talaga ang driver. No airbags is a disadvantage so doble ingat. ang plus side talaga ng jimny is mataas ng resale value because of the enthusiasts who modifies it and use it for hardcore 4x4 trailing.

Saan ok magpa undercoat? Magkano kaya?
Sabi sa Suzuki Commonwealth mga P4,500 raw tapos dinadala nila sa isang dealar nila sa Quezon Avenue.

sa mga gas stations pwede. pero generally speaking, kahit walang undercoat ok naman. regular underwash pwede yan para regular checking din if may rust ba yung underchassis. less than 400 pesos lang ang underwashing. every 6-8 months ako magpa underwash

^ pwede! Mag pa underwash na lang ako. Ty!

After going thru atleast 5 different vehicles on my driving history, the time finally came when i needed a second/back up car, always wanted a jimny since its launch. Just reserved a unit today, got the new shade of red

hope to get it by next week :D. Anyway, Meron na ba nakapaglagay or may oem ba na makukuhanan ng center arm rest ang jimny?
