2011 Mitsubishi Montero Sport [ARCHIVED]

AFAIK aftermarket HIDs will invalidate your waranty and probably your insurance too.

Most countries require automatic leveling as well as washers when HIDs are fitted and although some people fit aftermarket units; on the most part they are illegal.

4000kelvin Philips Blue Vision (halogen bulbs) look good and are pretty bright too. You can get them for fogs too.

Aftermarket HIDs does not invalidate the warranty as long as there is no splicing and cutting of the wires going to the bulb. Installing HIDs is just plug and play, you disconnect the socket powering the stock bulb, remove the stock halogen bulb, insert the HID bulb, plug the wire of the ballast to the HID bulb, and plug the recently disconnected socket to the ballast. Sir xenon headlamp/Richmond, maybe you can correct me if some of what I have typed is wrong.

It does not also invalidate the insurance as per the in house insurance company of Diamond Motor Corp. (Pioneer Insurance)

ask ko lang ung stock headlight ba ng montero 2010 pwede palitan ng mas mataas na wattage? if im not mistaken ang original is 60/55w
if pwede man palitan, kelangan ko pa ba maglagay ng relay?
plano ko sana lagyan ng 100/90w na headlight tulad ng ginawa ko sa innova namin
TIA

Ill go for HID's hirap na kasi galawin ang wires ng montero for safety issues na din, HIDs has 35watts and 55 watts which is better bec. brighter na siya wala ka na gagalawin sa wires mo plug and play na din. and you could choose the color that you think would be nice for you... HTH

EXCITING mga sirs! Lapit na FEb 17 for the official Launch date!

dami ko na nakikita nito 1 sa manaog swerte nung owner.. at sa sm pamp.

[anya618]

ask lang ulit mga sir, ano ang standard diesel consumption ng montero 4x2 matic city driving?
TIA

[x ray]

Saw a quartz brown VGT monty GLS 4x2 in edsa early this morning. I wouldnt know if not of the tiny 'V' sticker .. I was tailgaiting the monty trying to tease the driver kung hahataw siya , if ever he did kampante ako coz i was driving a Santa Fe eVGT

sir, with all due respect, question out of curiosity only. In my own personal experience a little difference in HP and torque is not that significant on the streets. I see a lot of montys having a hard time "racing" other vehicles and the other way around. I guess a powerful engine does not automatically translate to "the king of the road". May i know the significance of an experienced driver compared to the power of an SUV? peace!

Quick comparison with 2010 or older - - the 2011 has more horses, is that a new engine?, touch screen AV LCD with GPS (is that what I think it is?) reverse camera, plus a lot more . . . Why is it cheaper? I planning to buy this one vs the Fortuner or the everest unless there is something we don't know yet? I got the specs below in case you havent seen them yet.

Reverse Camera ready - Stock or after market ?
other standard factory specifications - There is more ? why not specify more...
Child Safety Lock - Include ??

[Expatio]

No reverse camera though Sir bgyobins & Sir Rumaragasa. It is reverse camera ready; meaning one can be connected. I think it cost about P7k

I think exhaust garnish may be a dealer option.

[gmgsport]

sir could you pls tell me the ave. fuel consumption for the montero?have you encountered any problems with the unit?i'm still thinking of getting one but not having the knowledge if it's worth the money compared to others.

Sir Expatio share ko lang din, SA called me earlier and told me that Reverse camera cost P8.5k and carbon fiber spolier is P9.6k !! That is if you want to have in on the 4x2 monty, im just wondering if the spoilers are just stickers that looks like carbon fiber or is it the real deal. Anyways, my SA (while whispering) told me just to buy reverse camera and spoilers outside of CASA nlang para mas maka mura and just have it installed through them (optional). Then they will know by tomm the final price for the 4x4 VGT monty

If you are talking about the older MS GLS, they suffer from turbo lag. Few seconds drop in power before the turbo kicks in. Hopefully the VGT will solve that problem.

Mga 1.5k - 3k lang ang reverse camera bro.


I've seen and touched a Monty GLS-V yesterday and yes angganda nung Headunit with GPS. And that 178 hp, angbilis niyan! Other than that wala nang ibang binago. Asa winterpine siya kahapon pinapagawa yung steering wheel remote, ayaw daw gumana ng volume. Hehe.

TIA

+1 to this, an aftermarket reverse camera is about 2K only with distance markers similar to this:
