2011 Mitsubishi Montero Sport [ARCHIVED]

[Expatio]

Just got pulled over by High Way Patrol Group... My CASA did not gave me Conduction Permit (i have no idea about this) so in the end my Driver's License was confiscated. All I have was Official Receipt, Sales invoice and Delivery Invoice. Totally ruined my day...

Called up my SA and she went to the scene. Told me they (CASA) will be the one to retrieve my DL first thing in the morning at LTO.

Altimeter doesnt seem to be working. Stays ZERO always. what about yours?

Holy Cow, Pogey_uy. how unfortunate. Don't forget to renew it each time it runs out until you get registration.

I presume that the altimeter gets it's reading from the SatNav. If not it would have to be fed the QNH at MSL (mean sea level) regularly (like in a light aircraft) which would be impractical on a car.

[Expatio]

I see there is a barometer too; so it may be an pressure altimeter. If that is the case you would probably set the altimeter elevation at a known point above sea level.

kakakuha lang namin ng MS namin~ i will post some pics later~ about the fuel consumption Manila to Pangasinan 500 lang naubos namin~ i'm satisfied sa performance

Conduction permit is different from conduction sticker? or the same?

I am guessing since it also has barometer it senses altimeter via pressure nonetheless it maybe needed to be calibrated before it will work well, use google maps for sea level reference if its permitted.

Yes it will need to be fed this information before each journey/day unless air pressure at sea level is the same, the temperature correction being made by the outside temperature gauge.

Basically a barometer/altemeter needs one of the following: known current air pressure at sea level in your area (regardless of your actual altitude) or actual current altitude (height above mean sea level). It actually needs temperature at MSL too, for complete accuracy.

I would have thought the SatNav has altitude info. My several years old Garmin has.

congrats sir to your new ride, so it is really fuel efficient talaga, maybe above 16 km per liter of diesel. Enjoy your ride.

Sir Expatio, can the CASA calibrate this for free for the new MS owners? Anyone tried asking their suking SA.

got my savannah white monty last monday... dream come true is all i can say :D

so far, everything's in top shape... no issues on the steering wheel dials or anything... will test further come weekend

share ko lang

Congrats sir, hope you "enjoy the ride" as mistu says.

Hmmm kailangan din ba ng conduction permit dito sa manila?

[Ry_Tower]

Hmmm kailangan din ba ng conduction permit dito sa manila?

Requirement kasi yan esp kung brand new vehicle. Dapat CASA nga mag-asikaso nyan including the sticker para sa car.

[makunochi]

Thanks Ry! im definitely enjoying the ride!

As regards conduction permit, my SA gave me extensions until April 2011. Its actually an indication that getting the plate no. will take time... at any rate, the conduction permit should be issued by the dealer/SA... just request for extensions so you wont need to go back to the dealer everytime.

[elisher0210]

yes~ hmmm... pwede ba ung dealer mo na lng magadjust nung barometer? does anyone know paano?

Calibrate?
Why would it need to calibrated.

A pressure altimeter (barometer altimeter) as found on aircraft is set by user before each journey. As non pilots; we would not have access to QNH (pressure at sea level) data on a daily/hourly basis, so we set our altimeters' altitude instead.
So say your house was at 150' above sea level; before your journey, you would set the altitude at 150'. As the barometer reads the air pressure, it adjusts the altitude reading (as we accend, the air pressure decreases and the altitude reading increases). If we went down to sea level it air pressure increasse and would give a reading of zero feet (MSL).

paano sumali sa MSCP? maganda po ba dun?

Walang binigay na conduction permit ang SA namin. Sabi nya invoice lang daw pwede na supporting doc. kailangan pa ba i-request yan?

Same as mine my garmin 255w has the altitude info as well, and the barometric pressure.

But it would have been better if its automatically adjusted already or can be done with just a simple calibration, my Protrek and suunto watch both has barometer, compass, and altimeter. The protrek was automatically calibrated and is 99% accurate if I will based it on the results given by google earth, garmin satnav I am using.

Because one person if I am not mistaken complains about his altimeter being zero? That's why we, including me are wondering if it needs a calibration thingy. Maybe you can just tell us why the guy's altimeter reading remains zero the whole time "he said it was zero the whole time and a photo was posted I guess, but the barometric pressure is working since there is an hPa reading. Is it because he forgot to set his sea level meter before leaving? or Did not know how to set it? or it needs to be activated to get the reading? Please enlighten us sir expatio =)

[sleeepy]

something like this ba sa banawe mas mura

Ganyan nga sir! magkano po? and napansin ko ang ganda ng sticker mo sa gilid. "Variable geometry turbo"

[sleeepy]

ung din sabi sa kasa db kasi bubutasan un pag kinabit ung spoiler... pagkinalawang aun void warranty mo pag sa labas ka nagpakabit

Tumpak sir elisher 0210.Ganyan sabi ng casa regarding sa spoiler, kesyo bubutasan daw kasi
