gas o diesel?

That's unusual.

Normal top speed of the Advie is around 130kph.

Might need some tune up.

Parang ang baba ng 110kph bro for a speed limiter ?

One probable cause is hindi makaya ng engine because of something or ganun talaga.

marami dito bro, 110kph max naka speed limiter, usually mga company cars...

dati ride ko, max 170kph lang....naka speed limiter din,pero personal ko yun...

maaari sa engine o sa tranny nya problema....di nya kasi sinabi specs ng auto nya... di ba dapat ganun, sabihin lahat para di mahirap magadvice?

Sir,
First a word of advice. Speed limit in NLEX and SCTEX is only 100 KPH. Please drive carefully.

I had the same experience when my adventure can only go up to 90 max.

If you will look at your engine there is a strainer located beside the the accelerator (just follow the cable that pulls it). Very carefully, remove the screw and you will find three things... 2-washers, 1-spring, 1-strainer. You might have difficulty doing this during the night so I recommend doing this in daytime. the very tiny strainer plays a very big role in your engine, and the performance of your engine. then clean the strainer with gas and use an air compressor in cleaning out the dirt. These dirt comes from the diesel fuel you are using.. imagine if this is not installed ... your engine would probably be dead by now from choking.. You can also have your fuel filter checked or probably changed if not been changed for a long period of time. You may now adjust your idle as recommended by mitsubishi. or you can just play it by ear. Also, go underneath and check your tail pipe.... you might have accidentally backed up and bumped your tail pipe and caused it to bend...Oh yes, also check if your accellerator cable is properly hooked, or clipped.

Drive carefully. 120 and 100 is just the same... you will get there only a few seconds or a few minutes earlier... and the truth is, it doesn't count! so why use up all your adrenalin on the road?

Drive defensively.
