Even Europe will get the 2.5 VGT engine for the Strada because it has cleaner diesel fuel than ours. If Thailand will be getting the 2.5 VGT engine for both the Strada and the Montero Sport, then I will believe that we will be getting the 2.5 VGT also.

yup I know that bro, I just made himay himay the facts

for better reading of other co forumers

the 4d56 VGT High powered version has only been in the aussie market late 2009

Actually it doesn't necessarily mean you can't use a VGT system with low quality fuels...(look at hyundai) its just a matter of properly detuning the model to adapt to lower quality fuel...also try checking out mitsubishi forums in australia they also have a lot of issues regarding the quality of their diesel fuel.

they already have since 2009 as far as I can remember...if not earlier maybe at the same time as australia... Surprisingly for the triton, mitsu europe sticked with the idea of ditching out the 4m41 for it and rather sticking with the 4d56 VGT even if the quality of their diesel fuel is top nothch...maybe it has really something to do with economic matters

yes, thailand will be getting the 2.5 VGT as a matter of fact a co member from thailand already has some inside scoop regarding it...even toyota and isuzu has already been following the VGT trend and will be soon launching their own respective versions

The 3rd gen 4M41 already has 197 hp and 441 Nm of torque, and it has VGT. Only the Australian and European markets have this engine.

ahhh I see...thanks for the info....I think a have a couple of questions regarding it...medyo OT na dito...so maybe we can post things in the Pajero thread perhaps?

TIA

BTW bro...I just invited you in facebook...I surely hope you can attend the upcoming EB's of TSCP...

PS....I've tried the multicolor answering method I find it easier rather quoting every part of the statement.

....because its been a while that I had this kind of discussion...thanks bro!

4d56 with vgt is less powerfull than 4m41 with vgt?

hmmmmmmmmmm.......

yup, thats the upside of the owners of the montero and strada like me who owns a 3.2 4m41 variant.....we can possibly upgrade it to a VGT in the future...but the only downside of it is the crazy cost were gonna spend....

check this out....http://www.triton4x4club.com/webboar...p?topic=4286.0

[SIZE=3]So any idea if there is way to calibrate & makes it reliable equipment & not just pang porma lang. Also I tried the elevation reading, riding over the bridge(over pass) along edsa, wala rin pinagbago-elevation is 0.[/SIZE]
[SIZE=3]At present this are the issue of my MS almost 3month old.[/SIZE]

[SIZE=3]Thanks for any info-RTS[/SIZE]

Thanks for ur info, for the compass I think Im quite satisfied dahil the three rides points in SE quadrant sa garage namin ( Strada,MS & once we have still the gran lady FM PJRO). The only big ?? for MS is the distance guarantee of what is left for my fuel. The strada does not need reset whenever you top up the fuel, automatic syang nag aadjust.
Thanks--RTS

Nawala yung blinking ng lights pag pinipindot yung remote to lock and unlock pero nandon pa rin yung chirping sound. Ano kaya nangyari?

Paki read the manual. They are all there. I mean manual of the power locks

sir myogi, try mo ask warranty to replace the power steering pump assembly or replace the hose connection from pump to rack and pinion, maybe mawala yong weeeeee sound ng steering. la naman kasi connection yong rack and pinion steering sa weeeee sound. malamang sa pump yong nag generate ng sound.

SUDDEN LOST OF POWER after long idle while pressing the brake and on the Drive shift.

I understand somewhere here in the forum experience this. that guy was right.

I was on my way to Bulacan when i got in a traffic along Congressional street due to convoy of cars for campaigning politicians trying to cross an intersection. Maybe around 10 minutes. I keept the brake peddal pressed while on the drive (loo lazy kasi) shift.
When the tarfiic was clear, everybody tried to sprint away. I tried to push the accelarator peddal down to gain sprint speed (you imagine how hard i did in frustration of the traffic), the car moves forward but suddenly the engine is not responding to sprint and is about to slow down like something coverred the air intake. I had to release the gas peddal and push it again. It recovered and moved but not that responsive to the gass peddal. It seems like there is a clogged air or gas inatake. I pulled over the side road, and switch off the engine for a minute or two. Then, it run good after.

Imagine you have the problem while trying to overtake Fort? Patay ka!!

That was terrible. I do not know why people still buy this car. But man, i love the power of the GLS SE engine (except the other problems).

Sir try to have your EGR cleaned by the casa. I also experienced that for the last 2 weeks. Then I brought my MS to Diamond Valle Verde for 25K km PMS last Saturday. I complained about the loss of power and some other complaints. Diamond Valle Verde checked my SCV for clogging using the MUT. My SCV still works perfectly. Then the mechanics told me that they will clean the EGR because it might be the probable cause of the loss of power. After tey cleaned it, birit kaagad sa C5. The loss of power disappeared.
