I'm quite new here and desperately need your professional advise on diesel stuff. my brother has a mitsu adventure that has a km reading of (115,000+) its 4 years old and was casa maintained all the way, just recently we were advised by mitsu motors for a diesel calibration, Im not that familiar on car maintenance and stuff and I was wondering if you guys can recommend a good shop that could diagnose,calibrate, and double check whats really going on with my bro's AUV. Just recently he was flagged by MAPSA anti smoking team cause of failing the emission test, he was really surprised cause of the fact that his AUV have undergone a 100,000k check up a couple of weeks before that testing. What could be wrong? do u think carbon cleaning could possibly fix the problem?
Hi there,
I had my diesel vehicle inspected at an emission testing center this morning, while waiting for my turn I saw a '97 Pajero being carbon cleaned. After the process, I talked to the owner of the Pajero and he told me that there was no improvement at all. He even told me that the whole thing was a set-up, the testing center also does carbon cleaning kasi. I was thinking of having it done to my car if ever it failed the emission test, buti na lang it passed.
check out Central Diesel Clinic along Quezon Ave corner the road of Capitol Medical Hostpital.
check out their short profile at http://www.4x4ph.com under the General Discussions forum > 4x4 Philippines Raffle Treat thread. their complete details are also posted there.
The adventure's nozzle tips may need cleaning and calibration only, have this checked first if the casa has not done it. Don't have the injection pump calibrated yet.
There's been a lot of experiences in these pages regarding biodiesel. This is by far the cheapest way to clean out your nozzles and address smoke belching. You don't even have to do a calibration since your AUV is relatively new. All you may need to replace is your fuel filter.

Mga ilang taon dapat ang sasakyan bago ipacalibrate?
Thanks for the all the replies..I really appreciate those infos ;)
Sir Junlao, We have replaced the air cleaner and fuel filter of our AUV, and as far as I know it has also undergone a major tune up(not sure if thats the right term..sorry) and It was all done at mitsu balintawak.. To be honest, Im not really satisfied with the overall result, albeit their customer service was outstanding, they doesnt seemed to find the real reason why it is malfunctioning. Anyway will try biodiesel first, then will probably drop by at central diesel clinic.. salamat po mga bossing :D
