Re: My first Suzuki

Welcome!
As the others stated, the transmission is the weakest point of a used Kizashi with an automatic transmission. Definitely check to see that it's in good order before you spend the time and money on a paint job.

Re: Direct Injection

Great conversation that made me think more in depth about EV's and ICE vehicles. I have owned three Kizashi's with proper maintenance including CVT oil replacement. Very satisfied with reliability and service. Besides being very conscious about the impact to the environment due to the production an...

Re: Over heating

Perhaps you did replace it but you didn't mention the radiator cap. Did you replace it with a proper quality replacement, ideally the Suzuki OE part or a Denso/Toyota OE cap?
When I overheated, it was due to a failed radiator cap.

Re: Finally Solved!!!!! Steering lock error no start

I'm starting to get the steering lock error sporadically these days too but the solution is super simple: just open the driver door and while it's open, start the engine. It works every single time for me. Dang... How many miles on your Kizashi now? I'm at 179k..haven't had any problems so far. I a...

Re: Upgraded awd Kizashi transmission 2/6/21

I contacted the site owner to see what he wants done with the AI bot. I agree it's relatively harmless but I'm not sure if it belongs.

Re: Upgraded awd Kizashi transmission 2/6/21

Yeah, I suspected it after a few posts by the user as it always repeats prior content in a very formal and grammatically correct manner, but really adds nothing more. I'm not the site owner thus I'm not sure if the owner wants these bots banned or not given it isn't actually spamming with links, ads...

Re: Upgraded awd Kizashi transmission 2/6/21

You've got an AWD Kizashi transmission for sale with a successful long pin upgrade. Pan inspection showed normal wear, and the upgrade went well, addressing a peeling ball issue. Priced at $750 with an old one exchange or an additional $200, you offer a contact number for inquiries (814-573-1051) i...

Re: Esp and abs light

You probably stressed or overheated some component of the ESP system by doing donuts. Did you turn off the traction control first? If not, probably should. And while we're on the topic, I'll share my opinion and experience that you can disregard if you want: The Kizashi is a rare car that is from a ...

Re: New member/owner - Headlamp questions, not working

Well... I've gotten the bumper off and am attempting to install the Auxbeam F22 LED kit. Turns out the burned out low beams are Morimoto with the added box, etc and I'm having a bit of a time trying to see what fits where, assuming I delete the boxes labeled Marimoto. First of all, I note that the ...

Re: Suzukis in the Caribbean

Good stuff! I was in the Yucatan peninsula of Mexico earlier this month and spotted some newer Suzukis like the Ignis, Jimny, and the Ertiga. I also saw that the police rode Suzuki V-Strom motorcycles.
