Mitsubishi Pajero Fieldmaster (Gen 2.5) [ARCHIVED]

flickserve, actually black smoke is common to most japanese diesel engines when subjected to hard accelleration. Key here is learing to drive smoothly. With mine, i rarely go upwards of 2500rpm. True mabagal, but walang smoke and fuel efficient pa hehe.

Also, try changing your Air filter. a clogged filter means less oxygen for combustion.

What is the cycle for the change in the air filter element?

What is the cycle for the change in the air filter element?

air fliter element change is every 12months or 25,000km based sa haynes manual

pajerokid,

san ba ang el dorado cubao? megamall lang iyong alam ko na el dorado e. ano iyong nearest landmark? pakituro naman how to get there coming from ateneo-katipunan-aurora route. maraming salamat.

[pajerokid]

Its along aurora boulevard cor. 16th (I think) avenue. Mura na oem parts, may freelance mechanics pa.

[ispufi]

just got a 2nd hand 4M40 two weeks ago and enjoying it. just curious how the vehicle monitors the tire pressure and temperature. checked it out and looks accurate naman. tnx...

Uhm, does your 4M40 come with a Pajero? If it does, congrats on your V46!!!

Gentlemen,

Good day to all. I'm just new here at tsikot forums and a newbie Pajero owner. Just wanna ask some friendly and professional advice for my 5-dr 2.8 Pajero Exceed (purchased July 2009 in Subic). I know some folks don't like Japan imports, but that's what my budget permits. I want to maintain my first car, without burning much my budget.

Here is the present situtation:

-Engine and auto trans are good, very good acceleration and shifting, 4wd is engaging smoothly
-16 inch mags and spare tire, with 75% tires
-Good body and paint, including interiors, all working gauges
-Some steering parts (the part connecting the tire rod and gear box) are from bnew Isuzu trooper parts (compatible according to the mechanic), no leaks and rattle in the steering mechanism (walang kabig). May konting kalampag sa harap, pero baka rubber bushings lang, and some adjustment sa parts.
- Tried 150kph on SCTEX...so far oks naman.

My questions:

- What brand of engine oil is best (performance and price) should I use? For every what kilometer should I change my engine oil?
- What should be the right tire pressure for front and rear tires?
- When do I use the S/M/H settings in my suspension?
- When do I use the OD/L/2 in the auto transmission (sanay kasi ako sa manual e)?
- Will it be advisable to change the timing chain since the odo reading is at 90K km? or should I change it at 100K? How much will this cost?
- How do I maintain my turbo and diesel injection (hindi ko babaklasin, but on proper usage)?
- Plus other basic maintenance inputs...

Pasensya na po sa moderators kung nasagot na itong tanong na ito in other threads. Ala na kasi time to sort out 100+ replies e, been very busy at work.

Your suggestions and advices are very much welcomed. Thanks.

utoy, welcome to tsikot
imho
- choose the highest rating you can afford, synthetic or mineral. I guess CF minimum to as high as CI rating. every 5k kms replace
- 34 front 36 rear
- depends sayo kung san ka comfortable,
- just keep it in D and always overdive on for fuel economy,
- pass baka at 200k kms ko na palitan or kung may mafeel ako na kakaiba.
- dont shut down your engine after driving hard lalo na pag sa nasa expressway. allow 2 minutes to cool down your turbo.
- change oil and oil filter every 5k, air filter every 10k kms, fuel filter and ATF every 20k kms, all fluids ( coolant, brake , power steering, differentials and transfer case) and grease nipples every 40k, all belts every 50k kms.

hi pajero lover share ko lang a/r mags original

[testament11]

hello, welcome din to tsikot. pareho din tayo ng ride, subic din ang sa akin and also a 2.8 variant. yun sa akin kasi, nung binili naman eh may kabig na. yun pala nung dinala sa casa, eh worn out bushings at may kalog na ang ball joints. siguro check mo din ang mga ball joints mo, upper and lower. sa casa ka na din magpapalit para mas matibay ang bagong ball joints mo. don't worry, tinatanggap naman sa casa ang mga subic.

as for my ride, share ko kung ano ang meron sa akin:

- i used full synthetic oil, royal purple pa nga gamit ko. viscosity is 15w-40. change oil ganito... pag mineral, every 5k at pag full synthetic, 10k

- tire pressures ko sa front is 26 at 28 sa likod. i based it dun sa sticker ng tire pressure setting na located sa passenger side

- sad to say, wala na ko s/m/h settings dahil nung nabili yun, naka kyb gas-a-just na siya, so yun lang ang wala sa akin. pero sabi naman eh mabubuhay naman ang pajero ng wala yun

- naka off ang overdrive ko pag nagdridrive lang ako sa looban. pag malayuan na, naka-on na yan

- tama ang sinabi ni pb, kelangan ng cool down ng turbo, 2 minutes mo lang i-idle ang engine pagdating mo sa destination mo para maalis ang mga langis na nasa turbo

- as for the timing chain, tama din si pb. pinapalitan ang timing chain pag may narinig ka na o naramdamang iba. yan ang advantage natin sa mga timing belt na kada 100k, palit. i just recently reached 100k last sunday and sabi ko nalang sa sarili ko, baka dito na magumpisa ang problema kaya naghahanda na ko

oo nga pala, mani lang ang 150kph sa pajero pero gusto ko sana observe mo kung hanggang saan ang kaya ng pajero mo. sa akin kasi sa sctex at nlex, top speed ko na ang 155kph at 4000rpm, pedal to metal na yan. try mo kung kaya umabot ng 160kph or higher yan kasi feel ko talaga, may ibubuga pa ang sa akin

[larshell]

Mga pips may alam ba kyo mabibilsn ng parts 6G72? Sira daw yong injector plug. Thanks

[KCboy]

el dorado o motorix sa banawe meron malamang yan.

[nugundam93]

ispufi: hmmm, ako medo di ako tiwala sa tpms, iba kasi reading niya compared to the tire gauge na mechanical. then again, dipende rin kasi minsan it actually reads ok.

atty: take aurora from katipunan. starting from the stoplight with the mcdo on your right, wait for the next stoplight and turn left. nasa opposite side yung el dorado, so u-turn ka after you turn left (di pwede u-turn kasi dun). :D

larshell: aside from motorix and el dorado, try sp international na rin sa banawe.

pajero kid, surprisingly, it did come with a pajero

i'm not too much into cars and this forum is truly a learning experience for me. had to read from the start of the thread and i'm not even halfway. a lot of the terms you use here are totally new to me and hopefully i can catch up ..tnx..

No probs bossing, we're always here to help! By the way, i'm glad you're doing a backread, as opposed to some posters who just type away.... ang daming stock knowledge diyan and i hope the stuff comes in useful.

Anyways, 4M40 is the default engine of the Gen2.5 Pajero (blister fender; local). Yung model code po is V46. Basta 4M40-engined ang pajero v46 po iyon, kahit na plastic fender (Gen2). Just a bit of trivia

[nugundam93]

ispufi, pajerokid: natawa ako sa hiritan niyo ah. hehehehe!

[larshell]

Thanks sa reply nyo mga pips. Baka may Tel.# kayo ng Motorix and SP International.

[ek2jayvee]

guys with gen2.5, do you know where the engine number is located? need to stencil. checked the manual, but it seems it is not where it should be. thanks.
