Got my GTV last May 10 and still no plate until now. SA didn’t give me multiple invoices as this is no longer being honored daw. What I have is a like proof of registration from LTO and according to my SA it’s a permit to travel. Anyone have this also?

most of the time effective yun multiple invoice sir. i got my gtv last april 5 ngayon pa lang
dadating yun plate.

Bro GTI277,

wala na ba extra back up camera yung friend mo?
BTW, saan mo pina-install? winterpine?
KIndly post some pics bro...

Bro, paano magpost ng pics? Nakalimutan ko na eh, tagal ko na kasi di nagpost

Actually, 2 pinabili ko. 1 for the Monty and another one for my Jazz GE. I think they have for different car brands. Chinese kasi yung catalog, I just refer to the images.

Remaining distance before you run out of fuel
Temperature(maybe outside)
Pressure(or unit of pressure-hPa) barometer
Don't know the last one altitude

middle of course is the compass(pointer)...

sir, the pressure is for the barometer and the last one is altitude

Truth is, no amount of papers will be honored by traffic police if they are implementing the no plate no travel policy strictly. But, LTO also recognises their current situation so they are "suppose" to be a bit lenient on its implementation. Ang problema na lang ay kung sino ang nanghuhuli and the convincing power of the one being apprehended, and most of the time a hundred pesos still goes a long way.

Ang tagal ko ng member ng tsikot dati active ako mag post dito pero nung nagkaroon ako ng Montero nawalan ako ng time mag post dito atleast ngayon ma i share ko sa inyo yung na experience ko I bought my monty last April 2011 and I was very satisfied mayroon lang minor problem ako na experience like Sobrang usok, di gumagana ang bluetooth, nag hang ang switch sa steering wheel at yung nakakabuwisit na dvd player pero isa isahin ko lang pano nila na ayos

Steering wheel nag hahang - bali tinuruan nako ng mitsubishi yung incharge sa service warranty nila nung una pinabili ako ng battery dahil wala daw available sa kanila so bumili ako nung tina try namin ayaw gumana so tinuro din sa akin ang sekreto pag nag hang yung steering wheel kailangan pala i off ang engine tapos press and hold ang dalang button then i on mo yung ignition key ayun gumana na kaya tuwing magloko ganun ginagawa ko ngayon ok na

Bluetooth - nag papunta ang winter pine ng tao sa mitsubishi dahil d nila makita ang proble simula palang ng binili ganun na yon basta sabi lang sa akin pag dumating na tao nila papaayos yun pala ang lintik na bluetooth may naglaro sa mitsubishi binago ang passcode

DVD monitor nakaka pag init ng ulo pag naka hinto ka at naka PARK ang gear mo gumagana once na nilipat mo sa R or D or N may mag aappear na YOUR PROHIBITER TO USE THIS FEATURE tapos dalawa linggo ako sinabihan ng mitsubishi safety feature daw yun sabi ko in charge ng mitsubishi try tayo ng isang unit nyo pag ganyan manila ako sayo nag try kami hindi ganun kahit ilipat mo ng gear gumagana ang video so pinapunta nila yung tao ng winter pine kasi sa butuan city sya so pinapunta ng cagayan de oro nung makita ng winterpine dipa daw sila naka encounter sa cebu at mindanao nyan so tawag sya sa main office ng winter pine si NICK ata yung in charge sa luzon so tinuro sa kanya nung una di sila mag ka intindihan dahil sabi ni nick i konekta mo yung pink wire ang pagkaka intindi naman ng taga rito putulin yung pink wire pero duda sya kaya tumawag sya ulit tapos iba naman nakasagot sabi meron pang isang wire sundan mo ilalim nyan may nakalimutan yung installer ikabit yung wire na yan kaya nung kinabit ayung gumana tapos gusto ko talaga mag magalit pero baka lalo mawala sa focus yung tech ng winter ang masakit nakit ko kung pano alisin yung monitor snap lang pala yun kaso pag napalakas ang hugot sigorado mapuputol yung mga lock na plastic at dun mag start ang kalampag sa loob ng mga plastic buti naibalik ng maayos ngayon gumagana na ang nakakainis sa winterpine wala silang repair center dito sa cdo dun pa kami sa harap ng Honda Dealer nag repair yung tech nila nakakahiya nga tapos nung lumabas yung service manager ng honda nakiusap yung tech ng winterpine kung pwede sa hanap kami ng ibang lugar talaga nakaka demoralized pero in the end na ayos din

[ben10city]

Tungkol naman sa pagiging mausok talaga nakakahiya dahil parang jeep na pamasada nung 1st day nya ilalabas palang sa casa kaya nag complain agad ako sabi naman nila normal daw yun hindi ako pumayag tapos sakto may lumang unit don monty GLS walang usok sabi nung in charge ganya talaga sir yung mga vgt mausok sabi ko bakit ganun diba dapat mas high tech ang GLS-V kasi bagong unit sabi dapat nga sir tapos may pina patch na cable dun sa monty ko papunta sa laptop dun sa laptop pino program tapos biglang nag rebolusyon yung unit ko tapos nung naabot yung certain temperature ng monty ko nabawasan ng usok medyo ok na pero nung pag katapos namin mag pirmahan ng doc. ayun pag start ko ganun naman sabi try ko muna daw i road test pag 1k ibalik ko unit at kung ganun pa raw gawan na nila ng report so pumayag ako sa idea nila so naka 1k at 5k ganun parin ang masakit nung kargahan ko ng SHELL V-POWER DIESEL ah times 3 ka usok so nag try sila ng ibang gls-v at gtv mausok din pero di kasing usok ng sa akin kaya pumunta yung service manager na ata ng mitsubishi kaya inamoy nya yung usok mataas daw sulfur sabi baka daw contaminated ang gasoline station na kinakargahan ko sagot malabo yun eh di sana ganun din mga tropa ko tapos tinanong nya yung performance sabi ko walang problema hanga ako lakas humatak pwede nga pangarera lintik sa bilis lakas umahon problema lang talaga pag over take mawawala yung car na rear mirror sa kapal ng usok dyahe talaga tapos sabi nya try mo yung regular diesel pero bago yun sabi ko sa kanya member ako ng tsikot may isang ka member ko sa manila naka encounter din ng ganito ang sabi nya try ko daw palinis yung EGR kaya nung sinabi ko yung nag usap usap yung mga taga mitsubishi it make SENSE daw kaya binaklas nung mekaniko yung egr at saksi ako dun dahil pinapanood ko inalis nya kulay itim na parang pipe na rubber 2feet ata ang ang medyo naka bent sabi nya medyo makapal na daw ang carbon kaya nilinis nya pagbalik nawala ang usok pero habang tumatagal bumalik na naman tapos may nag suggest na gumamit ako regular diesel ayun hindi gaanong mausok acceptable na sya dahil diesel engine hanggang sa umabot na pala complaint ko sa japan sabi ng engr. sa mitsu dahil ginawan nila ng Q.R. ewan ko kung anong ibig sabhin nun yun pala yung mga unit na padala daw dito ay EURO 4 daw yung mga monty na di compatible sa fuel sa pinas dahil madumi dapat daw EURO 2 lang kaya meron daw silang SILENT CAMPAIGN na tinatawag at hinihintay lang daw nilang yung CD na ipapadala ng japan para ma programan ang mga unit pero totoo naman na minor lang talaga dahil wala naman ako encounter problema sa performance habang tumatagal lalo gumaganda performance at pag city drive 8km per liter pag Highway 16km per liter in 200km highway pero pag short highway average lang ng 12km per liter not bad .

[jhnkvn]

Choice of diesels shouldn't be a problem. The Big Three oil companies are still using EURO 2 standards in their diesel refining process.

[ben10city]

pero bro ngayon masasabi medyo ok na sya hindi gaanong mausok dahil regular diesel nalang gamit ko pero once na nag shift ako ng V-Power diesel hayop usok non stop sa lakas akala mo na nabako sa lakas ng uso ganda pa naman ng tail pipe finisher kaso nakakasira ng looks yung usok kaya ngayon nag regular nalang ako na shell diesel masasabi medyo ok na sya di na dyahe

[111prez]

i have been using petron diesel max from day 1 and wala naman akong usok

a lot of monty owners at the montero sports club of the philippines forum are recommending seaoil bioxceed

i might try seaoil on my next top up

[Zeus]

Hindi daw mabibigyan ng unit kapag cash ang bayad mo, lalo na Quartz Brown at pag pumila ka, pagdating ng July 01, tataas na raw ng 20k ang GTV

i have been using either petron diesel max or shell regular diesel since day 1 only because i'm a cheapskate. why will i spend more for the more premium diesel? i thought the reason why i (meaning, me personally) got a diesel engine is so i can save on fuel costs. turns out, it was a good decision. no wonder i don't notice that "mausok" thing (except for the one moment when the montero was something like 50km on the odometer and my wife asked "bakit mausok?"). but i haven't tried that seaoil. maybe when i chance upon a seaoil outlet.

i heard from 2 dealers already that quartz brown is a premium, rare and sought after color now. mas marami pang in stock black and white colors

as for payment in cash, unfortunately tama ka and some dealers prefer terms so that they can earn.

and yes, there is a price increase of P20T on the GTV (my dealer said june 2011 but others say july 2011)

i didn't think this was an issue. i don't recall this being an issue with the SA i spoke to. (not that i was planning to buy the truck cash.. i did purchase it via a car loan.) but if i'm not mistaken, i did ask if its okay if i pay cash and he didn't say it was going to be a problem. btw, my montero is quartz brown metallic which i purchased thru a car loan. how is the dealer going to make more money if you buy the truck thru monthly amortization? isn't the bank going to pay the dealership cash anyway? ..not unless it is thru in-house financing. but mitsubishi is not a financial institution and, if you plan to buy the truck via a car loan, they will refer you to one of their several partner banks (bdo, bpi, etc).

on the other hand (and correct me please if i'm mistaken), doesn't the majority owner of toyota motors philippines also own a leading bank? parang naalala ko tuloy yung pila ng pagbili ng fortuner a few years ago...

really? mine is quartz brown and at certain angles and under certain lighting conditions, it looks kind of dull sometimes. my wife certainly agrees with me, which, at more than several occasions, makes me wonder if i made the right decision for color choice. "rare and sought after?" hmm... time to look at the truck later with lustful eyes again hehehe

In-house financing at in-house insurance ang prefer nila, may extra commission income yata sila diyan, at tama ganoon rin ang pila sa Toyota Fortuner dati, deposit ako 10k, tagal pila, kaya withdraw ko na lang

i was just thinking, ang liit lang actually ng kita ng bank sa financing. around 9% (or less, can't remember now) p.a. for a 3-year amortization. they'll make less than a 3rd of the financed amount before taxes. i doubt magbibigay pa ang bank ng extra commission sa dealer kasi ang liit na.

but now that you mentioned in-house insurance, bigla ko nakita ang point nyo. (actually, i think "partner insurance company" is a better term kasi wala naman kadikit na FI ang mitsubishi motors philippines kaya they will probably just partner with an existing insurance company.) dyan siguro medyo makaka-racket sila. although if i remember correctly, around 20-25K yata ang premium for the comprehensive insurance ng montero. if the valuation of the montero is 1.4M (for the GLS-V), hindi din actually ganoong kalaki ang pwedeng i-commission ng insurance company sa dealer.

sa ganang akin lang, ang pwedeng makinabang ay ang SA siguro. kung meron mang extra commission from the bank and/or the insurance company, maliit ito para sa dealer pero significant na ito para sa SA. diskarte na siguro iyan ng SA, and nasa pag-deal nyo na lang. a sale is a sale. kung ipagpilitan mong gusto mo bilhin ng cash and parang pinahihirapan ka ng SA (so that you will avail of the car loan), baka mayari ang SA sa sales manager if you decide to buy the unit from another dealer instead (lalo na't may hinahabol na quota ang sales manager).

siyempre, i should mention na purong haka-haka ko lamang ito

[mckoyboni]

Ang Mahirap dito, pag me OR-CR ka na at wala ka pang plates, hinde ka na bibigyan ng provisional Invoice.Kaya open target ka sa mga buwaya sa daan.

Pero ako diniskartehan ko, yung invoice ko, every week, phi-no"photo-chop " ko yung date .Yun yung dala dala ko.

Pag nahuli ka naman, hindi naman nila pupuntahan yung casa para i-verify yung Invoice mo.... eh patayan nga hindi ini-imbistigahan ng mga buwaya, what more invoice ng sasakyan.

sir pano ba ang pag tingin ng date ng provisional Invoice? ito ba ay expiry date or start date? kasi yung last copy ko ay june 07 mukhang gagawa din ako ng sarili kong copya :D

[markus_69]

got approval for my auto loan, now i'm into shopping w/c dealer to choose, heard a good feedback to our forumer that citimotors alabang can gave as much as 25k discount, is this still true? by the way gls v, would be the one i'm getting, just worried about the smoke thing though, my innova diesel is almost 18months but i had no issue on smoke.
