Mitsubishi Pajero Fieldmaster (Gen 2.5) [ARCHIVED]

[promdiboy]

sir pk nakikiramay ako. masakit nga yung tama. baka mahirap ibalik yung waves sa lower part. may konti pang dent sa blister fender. pero at least di tinamaan yung tail light and stainless bumper.. bumper corner and mudguard madali lang naman ayusin. 10k yata participation natin kaya wala maclaim sa insurance. less than 5k lang siguro yan.

[levi]

Thanks. I will checkout Carryboy.

[nugundam93]

ouch. sorry to hear what happened, sir pk.

[pajerokid]

oks lang peeps. Yung Quarter panel 40k exclusive of labor and paint. Makikipagbaratan pa ako sa insurance nung nakabangga sakin (PLDT). For sure reco nila would be pukpokin lang.

Hehehe. You guys should see the anfra!

Wasak yung hood bumper and umurong yung fender!!!!!

Lalo ako na in-lab sa Pajero. Tibay!!!

Kung hindi kaya i-match yung paint, I think a whole-body washover is in order......



Black is beautiful? :evillaugh

Hindi ba pwede... you advance the participation fee & have it repaired by your insurance company? Alam ko mababalik naman sa iyo yung participation fee after they claimed it from the insurance company of PLDT.

Hehehe. You guys should see the anfra!

Wasak yung hood bumper and umurong yung fender!!!!!

akala ko ganyan rin kaliit ang tama nung sa kanya

Lalo ako na in-lab sa Pajero. Tibay!!!

Ayaw mo na ng Evo? Hehehe...

[pajerokid]

JG,

I'm seriously considering the Tommi Makkinen EVO VI at Autocamp. Kaya lang parang hindi na bagay sa corporate stature ko hehehe Jok lang pre. And with the way gasoline prices are hiking up, parang di na masyado praktikal.

Di ko pa sure how we will move forward with our damage claim. I'll follow up with PLDT tomorrow. I'll try to secure pictures of the Anfra from the Police. Should be fun.

hello guys,

may i ask your consumption per liter both city and long drive? i am planning to get a pajero FM?

thanks!

[Field Master]

PK, sad to hear the accident you went through. But good thing that your stainless bumper was not hit. I have mine replaced together with 1 rear quarter bumper for 23K. The stainless bumper alone is 13K from the casa. I claimed the cost in my insurance with particpating fee of 4K.
Edgee: There is existing thread somewhere here regarding Pajero consumption. Use the search function. Anyway, mine is averaging at 7.5km/li (A/T with 4x4), combination of city and long drive. I have an undisciplined right foot, most of the time my rpm reaches beyond 3K mark.

[pajerokid]

FM, thanks dude. I'd prefer my bumper get hit rather than my Quarter panel hehe

[edgee]

thanks field master!

I went out this noon for lunch at Filinvest Festival mall riding on my Pajero. After lunch I started my car and to my surprise it doesn't crack. Of course the usual suspect would be a dead battery. So i took out the battery and bring it to Smart Price in West Gate alabang and have it check there by the store technician. The tech has digital battery tester and it read out "REPLACE THE BATTERY. My battery is Motolite GOLD. So I bought an ACDelco Battery worth 4199.50 with 2years warranty raw. After installing the battery the car went broooom, one click. Grabe ganun pala battery ng Pajero walang kaabog-abog bigla na lang dead. Just want to share my experience.

[OTEP]

Ganun ata talaga Pajero. Once started kasi, it does not rely much on the battery unlike more modern vehicles kaya hindi mo mapapansin if may problem na. Sa staring mo lang talaga usually malalaman. Yung speed ng starter ang clue mo. Kapag humihinina ang battery, pansin mo medyo hindi ganun kabilis pihit ng starter.

I also switched to non-MF batteries para mas madali mamonitor ang condition.

[nugundam93]

yeah. pajeros usually go through MF batteries like they were just AA cells. heheh.

40k ang taas naman ng price. diba masyado namang mataas yan? my worst accident involved replacing the door of my honda civic vti. door and paint cost me 25k.

[pajerokid]

Maraming nagrereco na papukpok ko na lang daw. Anyways, I think dun ko na lang sa Alex pagagwa. I heard a lot of good things about them.

On a related note, good news for 4M40 peeps. Mas mura glow plug natin kesa 4D56 glow plugs. OEM is P450 per piece lang. Pero mukhang mas matibay yung pang 4D56. the 4M40's plug is the narrow tipped one.

I experienced hard starting during mornings, replaced the plugs and everyhting went smooth. One click start on a cold morn.

I rechecked the replaced plugs, two were still functional while hte other two were busted.

[Field Master]

HI PK, I visited the Alex (ISIP??) shop once ang ganda nga ng mga gawa nila. But I opted to have my civic done on other shop medyo pricey kasi but I was not satisfied with what I got. If the need comes around again siguro baka kay alex na rin ako.

4M40 OEM Glow plug-450 pesos lang. Where did you get that? I replaced mine mid last year for a price of 1050 per piece from El Dorado. Sigurado kang OEM yan?

[pajerokid]

Hi FM,

Yup 100% sure na orig. Ano itsura nung glow plugs mo? Yung sakin kasi panipis yung glow end.

[Field Master]

Hi PK, Mine has reduced glow-end body as compared to the screw-end. So there are basically two thickness along the body span. Anyway, saan store mo yan nabili for future reference.

[rlp1099]

reducing weight to imporve mileage topic

if you remove bullbar and forward facing 3rd row seats will your mileage improve since paj will be lighter...?????

[luckytruck]

hmmmm, interesting question, i think all pajero owners and other diesel rides would benefit if an experiment was done.

i would think that it would have an effect, now the question is that if it is big enough to notice over, say, a full tank of diesel, i am not too sure.
