thanks sa mga info mineral oil muna gamitin ko sa 1k pms ko, nung tinanung ko sa dealer na pinagkuhanan ko unit meron naman daw sila mineral oil, niloloko lang ba ko ng SA ko kasi sabi niya na breakin na daw lahat ng monty ngayon bago deliver sa client pero nung nagtanung ko sa mismo service center nila sabi sakin kalangan ko pa daw break in at dapat hangang 90 muna pinaka mabilis ko takbo, nalito tuloy ko pero mas naniniwala ko dun sa nasa service department nila

SA namin sinabi din i-break-in namen... between the 2, mas maniniwala ako sa service dept pag mga ganyang bagay, kase after-sales na eh...

sabi dun sa link ni ry tower mas ok hard breakin so mas maganda pala pwersahin makina paminsan minsan? tanung lang ulit panu ba masasabi i hard breakin anu mga dapat gawin?

I had my GTV reprogrammed a few months ago and switched to seaoil bioxceed diesel. The casa technician explained to me that the reprogramming has nothing to do with the euro rating. It has something to do with the exhaust valve opening settings when the aircon is turned on. There is no effect on engine performance or power. It really solves the smoke issue, I highly recommend it. It was sir pogy uy that mentioned that his unit experienced power loss after reprogramming but it turned out that his unit had some other issues which caused the power loss. If I remember it correctly, I think his monty had an EGR or SCV problem.

Ah thanks spotdog, that's how I remember it. Mali yung assumption ko associating reprogramming to powerloss. So gtvguy, listen to them and don't mind me. Hahaha

share ko lang itong mga site,
for those interested sa oil at break-in

New Car Care – How to Take Care of a New Car - Popular Mechanics

How should you 'break-in' a new car

hope it can help you in anyway...

[gtvguy]

bakit ganun sabi sa isang link first 20 change oil na kagad then 1000 change ulit

sir parang mas mainam kung sa mismong service dept ng dealer mo i-confirm yung ganyan kase sila nakakaalam ng engine mismo nila eh... or kung may personal or kakilala kang mechanic whom you trust, sa kanya mo tanong... parang mahirap magbase sa iba't ibang sinasabi sa mga link eh kase nagvavary ang conditions sa tingin ko... para may peace of mind ka din...

Read this one bro, Break In Secrets--How To Break In New Motorcycle and Car Engines For More Power

For added info lang naman. But 5,000kms is a safe bet before using fully synthetic.

I am not against this thread, malamang mas maraming alam yng author ng "Break in Secrets..." sakin but I would like to warn Ry_Tower that the break in procedure being describe is for "Motorcycle and Car Engines" which are probably gasoline fed and high revving engines.

Diesel engines I think are a little bit different when it comes to its break in process. I'll try to post yung mga website na nabasa ko but from what I remember things you must avoid are: lugging the engine ( pakicorrect lng po but I think eto yung masyadong mababa RPM for a given speed parang 40kph ka naka 4th gear k n, tipid sa diesel pero bad for a new engine), excessive loads (humihila ng trailer o inaakyat ng matagal sa matatarik na daan), pedal to the metal o pinaparedline yng RPM and staying at a constant speed and RPM ( dapat varying speed and RPM, one site recommend that you stay in the 1800-2200 RPM with occasional 2500-3000). The explanation I remember for these precautions ay pag apak mo sa accelerator may mageexpand at pagbitiw mo din may vacuum (I forgot what the vacuum is for) but these I think are essential para d mag glazing yng engine mo. Another thing is matagal daw talaga break in period ng Diesel engines (approx 10K miles) compared to gasoline engines.

I hope kng may mali o masakit sa tenga akong nasulat paki mention n lng po para lahat tayo ay mainform, again I'll try to post my sources tagal ko na panu nabasa or igoogle nyo na lng po "Diesel engine Break in". The only thing I was not able to resolve is what oil to really use pero like what I've said before I am going for the mineral first 10K km and then synthetic after that.

I currently also use the paddle shifter/manual shifter nung MS para sa break in, pag naka DRIVE panu the RPM's are too low, it rarely go above 1800 RPM nagshishift na agad sya lalo na sa low gears. Even though tipid ka sa diesel, but I dont think na brebreak in ng OK yng MS,ginagamit ko lng pag traffic talaga and siguro nga "kahit anung sobra masama" (sobrang baby o gigil sa silinyador)

according sa mga mekaniko dito sa motorpool namin...
mas mainam ang gumamit ng mineral kasi lagi kang nagpapalit every 5,000km pati oil filter.
mas mura pa din kung palagi kang magpapalit kaysa gumamit ng synthetic.
ang logic na sinasabi nila kung madalas ka mag-change oil mas naalis mo ang mga dumi sa makina.

kung synthetic every 5,000km top-up ka lang at change oil filter. then sa 10,000km mo complete change oil.
sabi nila ang nilinis mo lang sa 5,000km ay ang oil filter since ito lang pinalitan mo.
so if ever may naiwan mga dumi sa engine sa 10,000km mo pa maalis.

sa break-in iba't iba ang payo nila but based on my experience sa diesel engine, mas matagal nga i-break in ito.
meron kaming isang vehicle dito, ibinabad sa 80km ang break-in, ayon hirap bumatak.
but yun mga vehicle dito na ang break-in ay naglalaro sa 80km to 100km ayos lahat tumabok.

i got the monty last april, i got no problem with the break-in. sinunod ko lang ang 80km to 100km mula ng binili. after the 5,000km pms hinataw ko na.

The difference between synthetic and mineral motor oil

without being offensive to anyone, my disposition with advice from mechanics is to take it with a huge grain of salt. they're mechanics, not engineers. its almost like getting drug advice from the salesperson in a drugstore compared to a physician. anyway, to my mind, synthetic oils are able to handle engine heat and stress better (less prone to oil break down) compared to mineral oils. in our high-compression turbocharged engines coupled with metro manila's harsh driving environments (stop-go traffic jams), i'd still stick with fully synthetic oils every 5,000-km's.

how come no one is quoting the owner's manual regarding the break-in period of a brand new monty?

shouldn't we be following this instead?

Thanks guys for the replies. Will try the seaoil diesel for now and hope the smoke issue will be a thing of the past. Still a long way to go for the next PMS. At the present the GTV only got 7k and 3k more for the next PMS, roughly 2 more months.

it takes about 2-3 top ups to completely clean the system of the previous fuel and get the full benefit of bioxceed

[gtvguy]

dami infos thanks, yun din sabi sa service center ng mitsubishi sa alabang hanggang 10k daw breakin ang tagal naman na hangang 90 lang takbo ko hindi ko ata ma feel husto vgt hehe
