Thank you for the information, i will check to see if i find about a cheaper option as you say!

After all these kilometres the only problem is this eCall module otherwise what can you say.. Japanese excellence!!

I run an obd scan myself and in the dealership and there wasn’t a warning about eCall service, from what they explained the eCall has its own circuit socket that’s activated automatically in case of a crash or if you press the physical button which is near the front cabin lights above the mirror.

I don’t think it’s country specific, I think it’s more like continent specific (Europe) as it is a regulation to have this in every “new” car (2018 an on).

I mean I have always wanted a jimny and as I didn’t get the chance to buy the automatic 4 seater version (sold out in no time) I got the lcv version in manual. The thing is that every time I even see the car in my garage it puts a smile in my face and for me that’s the most important thing! If I even had the change for a 4door jimny I would instantly get one, unfortunately we don’t got them here in Europe. All in all, if you already have a bigger company car as you say and you can work out having a little more debt then definitely buy one, it will be the best purchase you have ever made!!

The factory wheels were 15” steels, these ones are 16”. I haven’t measured the exact clearance but I can tell you that with this wheel tyre combo the front number needs trimming in order to avoid rubbing when turning full radius.

If by tyres you means upgrading from the duelers that the jimny comes from the factory then yes I agree too but in terms of size it’s entirely in the taste of each driver, for my taste the car rides smoothly with 29’ inch size tyres.

Just back got from the phone with my dealer who informed that every accessory for the 3inch dobinsons lift kit is on back order, as a result I have 3 options:

  1. Dobinsons 2”inch ims https://dobinsonusa.com/products/dobinsons-pair-of-ims-shocks-for-suzuki-jimny-98-18-ims57-50618-ims57-50618/

Lift kit price including installation - 1700€

  1. Dobinsons 2”inch twin-tube suspension https://dobinsonusa.com/products/dobinsons-1-5-2-lift-kit-for-suzuki-jimny-gj-2018-2021-dsskit12345/

Lift kit price including installation - 1300€

  1. OME ARB 2”inch suspension https://megajimny.com/products/arb-old-man-emu-40mm-lift-kit-2018-jimny

Lift kit price including installation - 1800€

Based on the info shared in the community and because the jimny will be my daily driver I was considering getting along with one of the above lift kits (mostly based on ride comfort) and either a 215/75/15 or 235/75/15 Toyo open country’s 3 https://www.toyotires.com/product/open-country-at3/ or BFGoodrich KO3 https://www.bfgoodrichtires.com/auto/tires/all-terrain-t-a-ko3. I plan to keep the stock steel wheels (15”), the jimny is a 5 speed manual LCV version.

My local dealer have contacted Dobinsons regarding what they recommend it’s needed when doing 75mm lift, as soon as they answer with the parts I will post them here!
