Teka, '02 model ba kamo? CRDi engines na ba yun? Afaik, TDIC engines pa lang yun.
Nothing much has changed from its previous models, except for 3pt seatbelt at 3rd row, extra 12V socket sa rear.
I checked the models from autolink.ph meron dun 715K '02 model AT. Imo, get the MT for more responsive power. Then look for standard plastic base mats. Mas madaling linisin incase may matapon na liquids lampas sa carpet mattings.
Check fenders for repainting jobs, all 4 rear sensors should be in working order.
The CRDi makes 145bhp, the standard TDIC makes around 99bhp. That equates to around 50% more power.
CRDi units using the 'Millenium' body were brought in by the gray market as soon as the factory started cranking them out in '02. Standout Motors is one of the biggest gray market importers of Starex vans locally.
The automatic will consume just a bit more than the manual model. But you will still spend less on fuel than if you drove a gas powered van or even a gas powered subcompact sedan.
A/T units do feel a bit sluggish from a standing start. But in terms of gradeability it can hold its own against the manual esp. when the O/D is off.

Ungas, I checked the autolink.ph on starex van and most being sold are A/T, bakit kaya??
Yun base matting be you mentioned is the rubberize gray color thing under the floor mats??mukha nga very easy to clean, just use damp cloth to clean it..
i also notice na walang CRDi engine lahat ay TDic engine, kasi bago pa lang ito dito...
Another thing i notice is the bad smell or smoke that comes out of the muffler.. medyo masakit sa ilong pero hindi naman maitim, may ibig ba sabihin pag ganito ang exhaust?? or ganito lang ang diesel as compared to Gas????

Yup, that's it. Kahit na soda ang matapon madaling linisin. Not like carpets, kelangan detailing pa.
Kaya ko rin nga natanong to be sure, karamihan ng nakita ko dun sa site puro TDIC engines, walang CRDi on 2k2 models.

Air/fuel mixture not right? Calibration ang katapat nyan. Yung NA engine ko ganyan din ang naging sakit dati. Di ko pinansin agad, next thing I know, hirap na umabot ng 100km/h ang top speed. Kahit na pigain ko pa yung makina.
Nozzle tips were still ok, but I had it replaced to be sure. Minsan barado lang yung strainers ng injection pump. Dalawa ang strainers nyan.

Ungas,
May maliit na strainer sa inlet ng pump, saan po located yung second strainer.
Thanks.
Yung isa nasa loob ng injection pump sabi ng mekaniko. Kelangan talagang baklasin para malinis. I didn't see it in actual, kinuha lang kasi dito yung pump, binalik ayos na.
