Thanks! I will do more research on prices. And I've found a few mechanics around the area who know more about 4JX1's.

it's Havoline Fully Syn 5w40 Dexos 2 Low SAPS. Pretty sure I'm meant to have 5w30 tho. My oil light came on and stayed on for over 5mins until I rollded forward a few metres and it went off. Is this oil to heavy? <br/><br/>On the worksheet they have provided me it also says my car is a 3.1DT. which ...

7.5 litres of oil cost $176.00. Not cheap!

I got the 4jx1 back from HMC today. The mechanic put a newer brand oil in which he says he runs through his late model diesels. It's a 5w40.

I'm impressed with that price but does quality/price matter? <br/><br/>Am I about to face more ...

I am not sure. I was charged for 8 litres and the guy wasn't sure about how much to put in. He said he filled it until the dipstick showed it was full. I can't smell diesel in the oil at this stage.

What would happen if my mechanic (not experienced with the 4JX1) put 8 litres in when it's suppose to be 7 Litres?

I read somewhere that the UDS73 model was the engine Isuzu made which did not require the recall. Also the fault in with the injectors started showing signs around 50,000kms. You were lucky to make it to 100,000. ?? <br/>Yes I think you are right about the O Rings. <br/>I have had a few mechanics ...

Bighorn 4JX1 214kms UBS73<br/><br/>Back in Nov 2015 when I was driving on the motorway towards town I noticed that my temperature gauge was acting funny.. when I finally reached the city and stopped at the lights the heat started to climb rapidly. I panicked and took off to a mates place who told me ...
