Thanks mga bro.

Nawala yun lamig bigla ng aircon kapag tumatakbo after 1week mabili. pag tingin nun tiyuhin ko di na naandar yun fan (pre-owned 2015 glx 77t kms.) bago palitan check muna namin ang fuse at relay. Thanks again.

Na try nyo na mag update ng gps? Triny ko mag update to MM2013V3_Q1.20. Kaso naging distorted ung navi. Used the back up file which is Q1 2018, back to normal naman.

Triny ko na auto update and naka off ung anti virus. Update successful naman kaso distorted parin. Di kaya sa latest version ung problem? or if meron kayong natabi na 2019 na navi update, pa share naman.

Thanks guys

Another question hehe

I'm experiencing really bad gas mileage, between 4 to 6km/liter in city driving. I haven't had EGR cleaning done yet, will having this done improve my gas mileage? What else affects gas mileage in Gen 2 Monteros (driving style notwithstanding)

The engine has no blowby and is not blowing smoke when I accelerate so I guess the engine is still in good condition.

Diesel ba yan? Matindi pa consumption nyan sa gas crossovers.

Did you try the usual air filter change, proper tire pressure, throttle body cleaning? To add, in my experience with a different car, I drained and filled new ATF and the fuel consumption improved noticeably.

I'm watching the tire pressure and just changed the air filter. I'll have the throttle body and EGR cleaned. Thanks for the tip on the ATF, that's on my list of stuff to do

Check the fuel filter too. Baka madumi na at sakal na sasakyan mo bro.

If you're always using the 4x4 feature of your gvt , that'll also put a toll on your vehicle's Fuel efficiency too.

do what you gotta do so you can do what you wanna do

Sige I'll have the fuel filter replaced as well.

No I only use the 4x4 when the condition required it, usually very heavy rain.

mataas yan. mine averages 8.5km/li in mixed city/provincial road driving. follow earlier mentioned suggestions, replace fuel filter baka madumi na, egr cleaning might also help baka barado na ng gunk, clean air filter too (or replace with high flow/washable type). intake manifold cleaning might also help. you might want to try viscosity 30 oil, baka mas gumaan hatak. if you're near Manila area, visit Zix Performance shop. they do the usual pms and mods that you may like to do to enhance your driving experience[emoji4]

Others above me have mentioned the appropriate checks to do for the oils in the montero as it appears there is something mechanically happening causing the lower FC.

Family owns a 4x2 not a 4x4 but, mataas ang 4-6km/l for city driving, unless they are all on mountainous roads/rough roads or done during rush hour. For the 4x2, on stock tires, we used to average for City Driving 8-9km/l. Now, when we changed to the current gen montero's rim and tires (it was cheaper to buy the whole set from someone who was changing rims and tires rather than buying new rubber for the original stock rims). FC is now around 7.5-8.5km/l. The newer tires felt "heavier" and I think it is a slight upsize from the original wheels of the 4x2 (I could be mistaken here as I can't recall anymore).

So, the other question I can think of is are you on Stock Tires or on Offorad or Rugged All Terrain Tires as well?

I'm using stock wheels and tires that match the factory ones.

Better bring to a reliable shop that could verify your engine radiator thermostat(malfunctioning/stuck open), and/or fuel injectors(may only need cleaning).
