I don't think our '08 model DMax has a cabin filter?

Seems like it should have a Hepa filter....

Tks, will look on drivers side.

Had a pretty good look and I can't see any kind of filter... probably not part of Thai spec along with heater element.

Ha. You missed an important feature: air con check. Coz ur shop don't do it.

K.Rob - it could be behind the drawer, after 2008 version may need to cut the plastic cover like this

Steering and suspension links; tie rod ends etc. Applies to older vehicles and trucks as most pax vehicles have non-serviceable components nowadays.

ahhh.. OK suspension and steering components I understand..

Chassis to my mind was the physical solid lump, was thinking how the hell does that need lubing

Strange that. They did a check on my aircon that was playing up and subsequently fixed it with some replacement parts for front and rear and now works a treat, better than ever in fact. And an acceptable price!

For the record, 2008 DMax does NOT have a filter. The photos in Ton's post above show a Hepa filter for export models. Thai delivery a/c blower box is molded with the filter position blanked out.
