ISSUES FOR THE MONTERO SPORT. Please post them here.

There was this accident up north last month involving a montero that hit a tree. Airbags did not deploy. Driver and front passenger died and a passenger seating at the back seat survived but in coma.

Front passenger = city mayor
Back passenger = vice mayor

Sa TV Patrol buhay daw yung driver. Yung driver nga nagkwento na iniwasan nya yung kalabaw kaya sila nalaglag sa ditch at sumalpok sa mga puno. Pero sa video pinakita patay din yata yung kalabaw. Baka tinuluyan nung mga kamag-anak ni mayor yung driver sa galit.

Just this morning, may accident sa Benilde-Angelo King. The guards are directing traffic para makalabas yung ambulance nila parked just a few blocks from the place of accident. Sad to say, traffic dun tuwing umaga, swerte at nakakuha sila ng airport taxi.

While I was rushing to decongest the traffic, and the guard directed me to switch lane, bigla namatay montero namin in front of the scenario (on the other side of the road). So I pressed the hazard button and instead of stopping in the middle of the road (need talaga tumabi, lalo na may accident), I conserved momentum.

Sad to say nagpreno yung nasa harap ko that led me to apply the brakes, making my speed slower.
Next thing I did was opened my window and gave a hand signal dun sa katabi ko na Black Innova for me to safely occupy his lane (he was occupying the lane nearest the sidewalk, ako nasa middle lane). He gave way pero my speed is not enough to make it, and matigas na yung manibela.

Last resort, I put the transmission from D to N, tapos cranked the starter. Ayun buti umandar.
Upon leaving the street, para akong "ricer" na rev ng rev. Yung rpm medyo naging erratic for a couple of times tapos nag stabilize din.

This sudden engine shutdown happened twice already. The first one was nung dad ko ang nagdra-drive. Nagpapark siya sa SM and namatay daw bigla. The second one was today.

Sabi ko pa naman kaninang umaga, parang ang ganda ng takbo ng makina (cold start) kasi mas tahimik siya than before. Tapos bigla namatay in the event na dapat nagmamadali ka.

Last night, fueled up 2K worth of diesel sa suking gas station. Also added 1 small bottle of 2T.
I doubt na this caused such problem. Been doing this for how many months na.
I also had a "midnight run" as a stress reliever. Joyride lang for about 30 mins.

Changed fuel filter last 40K PMS. Oil filter replacement and air cleaner element replacement every 10K.
Just had our 50k PMS last month. Current ODO at 52K. SCV failure?

SCV yan, para sure dalhin mo sa casa para ma check sa computer.

Parang SCV nga sir. What model is your Montero? Under warranty pa?

[babynos01]

2009 model sir. Out of warranty narin

[glenn_duke]

2009 model sir. Out of warranty narin

AFAIK nasa 6-7k yung SCV sa casa. Ano ang fuel na kadalasan gamit mo?

[zix888]

2009 model sir. Out of warranty narin

just make sure sir na ma perform nila yung mga dapat i-perform when parts like these are replaced

[ek2jayvee]

babynos, yung old SCV pa siguro sayo. Padiagnose mo para sure. Mahal din kasi SCV.

Thank you mga sirs.
Before, I was able to "solve" the erratic rpm by WOT from NAIA terminal 3 to Buendia via skyway.
Last night, i tried to reset the ECU by removing the batteries for 2 hours, and upon evaluation kanina, nag improve lang ng kaunti.
Nandun parin yung erratic rpm from 2.5K and up.

Sir glenn_duke, either caltex lang kami or unioil, pero mas frequent yung caltex. Mas matipid sa krudo kapag caltex e.
Also tried Jetti Macapagal branch twice, ok rin naman.

Ewan ko dito sa tatay ko, ayaw maniwala sa akin e haha. Gusto ata ma accidente muna bago ipagawa haha.
