As for the wiper, napag usapan din po yan previously (either on this thread or the main Montero Sport thread). Some owners have said that this "garalgal" effect only happens in the early part of the wiper blade's life, and will disappear as you use the wiper more. Other owners have decided to replace their wipers altogether, which eventually eliminated the sound.

I belong to the second group. Had my wipers changed to the banana-type ones. No more noise when using my wipers.

sir anu po ba yun banana type?

hi

based on what i read here, If I have enough money i will go for Ms 2.5 4x4 MT. because the 2.5 engine has a good rating compare to 3.2.

The 2.5 is released in uk but the 3.2 is not, because of emission, as what I read in honest john website the 2.5 is a euro 4 compliant but not the 3.2. Correct me guys if Im wrong.

. and according to car advice website the 3.2 engine is more noisy than the 2.5.

I drive 3.2 Mt Strada and it has a lot of power, so for transmission problems, hirap tlga pag automatic kaya we bought the MT, it last longer =)

these are my opinions lang

Sir medyo mahirap i-explain, pero basically yung banana type is parang all-rubber na wiper blade. Wala na yung metal frame that you see on conventional wipers. Supposedly mas maganda ang hagod niya sa screen kasi mas even ang pressure across the entire blade, unlike sa traditional wiper na uneven.

Hope I was able to explain it well sir. Try niyo rin mag search about banana type wipers dito sa forum. I'm sure meron nang nag explain niyan in the past, and malamang mas accurate ang description nila...

Kap is right. it is made of all rubber material. Mas magaan ito when i compared it with the OEM with metal frame.

My montero is only 300 kms but after 2 to 3 sounds it disappears only on first use after you ride it. It is very annoying. It gets me irritated everyday to hear this sound from the brakes considering my mileage is less than 300 kms.

Also my wiper blade is so noisy it vibrates all the time, i have to put rain x on the glass because it is really sticky, is this defective?

Do you guys experience this also.

Thanks

SIr san dealership niyo po nabili yung unit niyo?
