2011 Mitsubishi Montero Sport [continued]

[skyranger]

Wishing for something bad to happen to someone is very distasteful. Hay... Just to prove a point.

Ingat tayo lahat and just enjoy our headturner montys.

i tried 29 / 32 and the steering was stiff
tried 30 / 35 then steering went better

will try 33/35 tomorrow.

do u guyz use nitrogen on your tires? tried using nitro on my pajero but found it very inconvenient since I have to go to that specific shop everytime i do pressure correction.

ako naka nitro ang singil ng Bridgestone 40 pesos per tire yung lang pag long drive ako hindi ako kakaba kaba na maputukan ng gulong pag naka nitro ang problema lang mag dalawang isip ka mag tsek ng tire pressure kaya visual checked nalang sa gulong. Totoo ba may expiry ang nitro kinakarga sa gulong sabi kasi sa bridgestone shop 1 to 2 months lang daw yun at back ordinary air daw?

40 per tire is not bad. Observation ko lang at start up, on my 28", 35psi siya, after long drive around 37.5psi na siya, on ordinary air, 39psi after long drive. Kung tutuusin konti lang ang difference sa increase in pressure. Para sakin naapreciate ko lang sa nitro is yung matagal bago bumababa ang tire pressure, di tulad ng ordinary air, after a month dagdag ka na agad ng 1-2psi lalo na during cold season. Regarding sa expiry, i am not sure pero parang hindi nageexpire. Before kasi yung stock wheels nung other car ko, na flat yung isa, i just used ordinary air, tinamad na kasi ako bumalik sa shop na nag iinflate ng nitro, half a year ko gamit na yung 3 tires w/ nitro and yung isa ordinary air, malalaman mo na hindi nitro yung isa after long drive kasi yung 3 tires lower ang pressure compared dun sa isa, based yan sa tpms reading, so palagay ko hindi totoo na may expiry

Mitsubishi Montero Sudden Acceleration Accidents

[Ryann0213]

Hula ko lang ahh.. Baka sa ECU (Computer Box) ang problema kaya ng rev ang engine ng todo, ng kaka error siguro. Kase nung 20k PMS ko Sept 1, 2011 Thur, kinabit nila ang laptop nila (na pentium poor sa bagal) under the steering wheel para e tune ang engine ko 3.2L, wala ng gagalawin sa engine. Hanga nga ako walang tao sa driver seat pero ng rerev ang engine. una 1k tapos 2k rpm, tapos tinatiming kung gaano kadaming diesel ang e bubuga nya sa bawat cylinder, mag iiba iba tunog ng engine un nga siguro un ng titiming sya ng kusa, at madami pang iba. Pag ka tapos non ganda na ng takbo ng 3.2L ko pinong pino ang tunog, lakas ng hatak parang bago ulet hehe. Ayun nga lang butas ang bulsa pag ka tapos.

Mitsubishi Montero Sudden Acceleration Accidents

this is still the same monty-merc incident posted in the issues thread/sudden acceleration thread and other threads

if i am not mistaken, a full report by mitsu on the incident was also posted for the information of all

best to read the report of the owner, then the report of mitsubishi and make your own judgment/evaluation

for those monty owners who are very fearful of this issue, simple lang naman ang solusyon: sell your monty

i am sure may mga buyers din dyan naghihintay who would be more than willing to take the risk for you

[bjreyesmd]

I still believe it's an isolated incident....as 111prez said, .002% lang yan. Usually a recall is in order if lumampas sa certain threshold nag incidents.

[lordkups]

tsong meron ba may sala na umaamin siyempre deny to the death ang labanan lage yan ginagawa mitsu ngayon, 16 incidents so far from the blog

^ tignan niyo naman alternick niya, may maniniwala pa ba diyan? 'wag niyo na lang pansinin Monty owners. Basta wala pa ako actual na nababalitaan dito sa amin na MS or strada na may ganyang problem.

[111prez]

I still believe it's an isolated incident....as 111prez said, .002% lang yan. Usually a recall is in order if lumampas sa certain threshold nag incidents.

the .002% assumes 50 incidents and sales of the montero has stagnated to 200 units only for 2011

i have a number of friends and MSCP members who have had their montys since 2009 and are very happy with their units. no incidents whatsoever

[lordkups]

wahaha usernames pala basehan na ngayon para paniwalaan so palitan nalang ni pogy uy username niya ng "the truth" and forum ito everybody is open to post what they want especially regarding alarming incidents like this to warn other people of course,

Ok lang sana kasi kung warning kaso sa mga post mo tinitira mo na mga "diehard" MS owners.

Eh, inconsiderate mo naman. Kaya nga yun binili nila kasi gusto nila. 'Wag mo na lang siraan at mag-wich ka pa na ma-aksidente. Yun ang punto ko. Troll.

chill guyz. my post was just an honest question regarding that matter. i am a happy monty owner ofcourse!

Thanks sa info sir Zix baka business strategy lang nila yung para bumalik agad ako sa kanila. Tanong ko lang sir Zix tuwing kelan ka nag papa tire alignment at swap ng rear tire sa front tire? kasi importante daw yon para pantay ang upod ng gulong o tumagal ang life span daw ng gulong

[BautistaRJ]

Every year sir nagpapacheck ako ng camber /align, free naman yun usually . Pero yung rotation i really do it every six months, sa bahay ko lang ginagawa pagrorotate. Tama kayo sir sayang talaga kasi ang goma if hindi naalagaan. Plus yung spare tire sir dapat maisali sa rotation. Yung spare tire ko sa fieldmaster ko never ko nagamit, after six years decided to use it, two months lang bumigay na. May life span kasi mga tires ,gamitin man or hindi, so kelangan talaga gamitin na lang para masulit

The truth is madaming reason not to buy Monty but the questionable sudden acceleration is not one of them.

[BRIAN]

share ko lang upgrade ko....very simple lang silicone key cover for our asx or montero key. pm me

[bjreyesmd]

This sudden acceleration is really becoming a hot topic....what I can not understand is a manual tranny suddenly accelerating.....not unless you put it in 1st gear, it shouldn't be. There must be some human intervention there.
