madaming monty owners gumagamit ng seaoil diesel ah. so maganda talaga ang result sir? :D

Pareho lang ata yung dalawa kasi alam ko, isa lang ang klaseng diesel ng Seaoil

check engine light is caused by so many factors, it appears whenever the ECU sensed something outside its set parameters. request casa to subject your ECU to a scanner to know the error code and properly diagnose the problem. not those temporary "paracetamol" fixes. nowadays with the recent flooding and continuous rains, dirty fuel filter and water in the fuel are the usual culprit in encountering CEL

If my check engine light sasakyan mo and nag on ito, automatic stored yan sa memory ng sasakyan unless otherwise i-clear ng scanner ito. A tkahit pa i-clear ito ng scanner lalabas ulit ang error after sometime dahil di naman ni-resolve yung issue.

Kung diesel fuel ang issue, magsasabay ang check engine light at ang fuel filter light mo, kasi nga madumi therefore enough yan para magtrigger yung sa fuel filter mo.

Kapag di natrigger ang fuel filter mo ng problema, or hindi na sense at nagkaroon ng check engine light, malaki ang probability na sa fuel pump or injector part mo ang issue.

Pinakamaganda nyan is have your car scanned then kunin nyo yung error codes. Kung sinabihan kayo wala error code pero angcheck engine light, ginogoyo lang kayo ng casa.

Yup tama, ingat sa pangogoyo ng casa. Better know everyrhing about your car, read forums, user manual, service manual etc.. alamin din kung ano use ng bawat component ng car. Try din maki usyuso sa nag iiscan. (MUT3) at tingnan kung yun nga yung problem. Lagi namang sinasabi yang maduming diesel.. so for what na may fuel filter pa? Madalas malabo din kausap mga taga casa. Dami ko na din bad experience sa casa kasi nga naman kaignorantehan ko.. kung ano2 sinasabing papalitan. Pag di umayos, magsasabi ulit ng ibang papalitan..

same thing with our pajero bk.. 10k pa lang natatakbo nag check engine na.. yun din ang problema sa fuel, pinalitan ng fuel filter then binaba at drinain yung fuel tank.. and meron din parang filter sa tank na nilinis nila.. so far mag 20k na hindi na ulit nag check engine.. btw, since then sa seaoil na din nagpapalagay ng diesel, buti na lang bago bukas seaoil dito sa amin before kasi sa petron..

same case pala tayo bro.. most likely sa montero nga daw nangyayare yun sabi nung supervisor dun sa casa kaso nachambahan yun sa amin.. i think if fuel filter ang problem need talaga ibaba pati tank para madrain tapos palitan ng fuel filter.. kasi kung filter lang papalitan parang sayang lang once na nagdumi ulit yun palit na naman gawa ng yun dumi andun pa din sa tank..

had my fuel filter replaced at 25k odo, sobrang dumi at barado na kaya nag cel. at 35k nag cel na naman due to yet again dirty fuel filter, I saw the filter element personally nung pinapalitan ko sa casa, barado na talaga. ok lang magpalit regularly ng fuel filter kasi yan ang function niya, para salain ang dumi sa maruming diesel, consumable na talaga yan. I think sa pms menu, dapat every 25k palit ng fuel filter pero kung at 10k barado na sa dumi may choice ka pa ba? kahit linisan yung tank kung marumi talaga yung diesel na ikakarga, at certain time maiipon na naman sa filter. saka very expensive magpalinis ng fuel tank sa casa, 6.5k nung last na tinanong ko

Everytime i bring my unit to the casa there's no clear explanation what is the root cause of this problem. I believe there's already a quality issue on these montero cars esp on 2013 model that must be addressed immediately. I am so frustrated. The freebies that i should have asked were paracetamols to relieve me from the headaches it brought me along with this new car. On tuesday aug 27, 2013, I will bring my unit again to the casa to be check. I dont know what to do anymore, I am thinking to return the unit totally since this is still under waranty. I just bought this last April 2013. Please help. Your opinions or suggestions will be highly appreciated.

buy or borrow a OBD 2 scanner and read the check engine code your self, there we will see who is telling the truth!
