The Montero Sport in question is an automatic, shouldn't the automatic clutch prevent the vehicle from moving forward that fast IF the driver was stepping on the brakes?

This happened to me last december 26 or 27. I intend to step on the brake because of in-coming tri-bike but i realized it is accelerating rather than stoping. but i was quick to realized i am steping on the accelerator and not the brake peddal. Scarry but it happens. Presence of mind is necessary. Ingat pals....

Hi, newbie here. Got my montero a month ago. I have a question sana if anybody can help. When I got the montero from Citimotors, yung alarm nya naka valet mode and hindi alam nung SA kung pano sya i-activate. So after reading a lot of forums e I finally manage to make it work. So naka-arm na yung alarm nung car but every now and then e naga-alarm sya even if nobody touched the car. After closing the door and arming it, it will alarm after mga 10 minutes yata and according to the guard ng parking space e alarm daw ng alarm yung car. I tested over and over again, and talagang naga-alarm sya basta basta. Has anybody experience such problem? and sino kaya marunong on how to configure the monty's alarm? btw, I have a 4x2 GLS AT, nakuha ko sya last december 2010 lang.

Good day tsikoteers. My monty is a 4x2 vgt AT 2011 model, I noticed that the steering wheel does not go back to straight position after turning right or left or even just by swerving to right or left. Is this normal for rear-wheel drive vehicles? Unlike my old honda city and the honda civic of my sister that you just need to let go of the steering wheel and it will return back to straight position.

Is there a way to manually disable the alarm when the keyless entry goes bonkers? Was at Podium today and the keyless entry refused to activate though the red light was working on the switch. I guess this is because of RF interferance in the mall. When I locked it manually instead, the alarm activated. When I returned, I tried again the keyless switch but it again refused. Unlocked manually, the alarm went off and disabled the ignition... Noticed the same problem with my Vios before, but the alarm doesn't activate when you lock the doors manually.

After manually opening the car, the sirens screams. Just push the blue led button down for 5 seconds or more. Then, the screaming ends. You are back to normal. The blue led button is the blinking one. It is a led light and a button swith too.
