Mitsubishi Pajero Fieldmaster (Gen 2.5) [ARCHIVED]

[pajerokid]

Ok lang ang RPM ng engine ko kapag malamig pa pero kapag mainit na mataas ang RPM 1,000 na. Kapag off ba AC mo tama lang RPM ng engine mo? Sakin kasi kahit off mataas parin sa normal. Lakas tuloy ng vibration.

Malaki ba ang difference ng resulta compare super bright and local led lights?

Sa akin, wala naman sa 1k rpm pag naka aircon, pero malapit na rin... i guess nasa 950-975rpm. Pag bumitaw yung AC below 800rpm. as far as i can remember, hindi cable yung idle-up adjustment ng AC.... sa fuel pump nga ata.

I'll have my ride calibrated this christmas vacation. Mura lang pa calibrate ko sa Gen2 ko dati. It's not a fancy shop pero mga 4k lang ang calibration itself + injectors.

[pajerokid]

PB, I installed the LEDs na. AYUS TALAGA hehehehe!!!

They adjust with the illumination brightness switch but not by much. actually if you turn the switch quickly, you wont notice it dimming. Nadisgrasya nga yung isang SMD sa A/C switch hehehe. upon installation kasi dun sa lower #74 socket, i noticed that medyo bluish white yung SMD na ininstall ko. yung sa itaas, medyo warm white. So i tested the other bulbs and looked for another bluish white one. i cant find any so i decided to replace the lower bulb with a warmer white color. In the process of pulling the socket out of the switch, nabunot yung bulb sa socket and naiwan sa loob nung switch assembly hahaha. Since wala na ako magagwa, i just left it in there and replaced the bulb with a new SMD. Buti na lang it doesnt make much noise. At least pantay na kulay nung AC panel and ang liwanag

The WLED-x5 in the compass is super panalo! ang liwanag na nung billiard ball!

Yung sa instrument panel naiinis ako sa Tachometer. SOBRANG GANDA NUNG NEEDLE. as in illuminated talaga. Naiinis ako kasi yung sa speedo hindi kasing bright hehehe. Ganito rin ba sayo PB?

I suppose next step natin is tail-lights. Meron dito locally na bayonet mount na 18+ LEDs kaso hindi dual intensity/dual contact hehe.antayin ko muna siguro bumaba price. or perhaps pag nabisita ako ng china, maghahanap ako dun

Larshell, i did some research and found the supplier for superbrightleds.com. as usual sa china hehe. Pero as far as i know, iba quality ng LEDs nila. Comparing the ones i tried before and the ones from PB, day and night ang difference. Also, wala atang available locally na #74 na LED (eto yung smallest bulb sa dash).

[promdiboy]

larshell medyo pricey yung calibration, dami pinalitan parts sa injection pump. but atleast orig parin lahat ng parts, cost me 19k lahat and 3 days down time, di pwede walk in sa kanila kailangan mo paschedule. para sure na pwede mo iwan. unless konti lang gawa nila.

glad to hear na ok yung leds, natawa ako sa sa smd led incident mo ah, you mean meron isang smd sayo na hindi cool white? wala kasing option yung 74 bulb, puro cool white lahat. nashoot mo yung sa 200 kph?

same nga observations mo sa akin, lalo na sa speedometer fuel and temp needles, walang buhay yung tacho ang ganda glowing red. i agree sa inclinometer, ang ganda nga. yung aircon medyo bitin ako sa kulay, kahit ang lakas na nung smd parang kulang parin, di nga siya perfect but ang galing ng result, murang upgrade lang, replaced all my lamps sa interior ceiling and doors to leds rin. hehe

dapat may kasamang plastic polish (megs plastx) akong papadala sa inyo kaya lang upon checking sa fedex no chemicals daw pwede ipadala, if you can find this recommend ko sa inyo. ang galing nito tatanggalin niya yung swirl marks sa clear plastic ( dash, multimeter and AT gearshift) magmumukhang bago uli ang shinny.

ang mahal kasi 3 watts na led for tail lights, 30 bucks x 4. dati ko pa talaga gusto yun. medyo naturn off lang ako kasi may nabasa ako na hindi ganun kalakas ang difference sa halogen bulb, sometimes the halogens are brighter pa daw.


kaya ko naisip sa compass itap, di na ko maghahanap ng supply na live sa ON position and di na kailangan relay, pag may relay pag on parklights mo sure meron mga half second na mawawalan siya ng power (flicker, OC eh) for the relay to trigger. perfect pag sa compass kasi its on kapag naka ON position and no relay to trigger. happy pa kasi ako sa gawa natin kaya di ko pa gusto magkalikot, pag medyo nagsawa na ako galawin paglaruan ko. I installed a new setup sa paj ko, ang lakas mag skip ng alpine ko kapag nalulubak, unlike sa pioneer ko dati, kaya bad trip baka masira pa yung mga CD ko. i also installed a single JL 8w7 sub sa rear ( ang cute hehe).

[pajerokid]

hmmmm.... interesting yung plastx ah. hanap ako sa suking auto accessories store, medjo gasgas na lahat ng instruments ng mga auto. Pati yung PDA ko pakikintabin ko na rin hehehe.

Yup kakaiba yung isang smd. bluish white yung ilaw. this is common naman kahit dati sa greenhills nung uso pa yung pagpalit ng backlight sa cell phone hehe. di talaga 100% consistent yung kulay ng white, kelangan i-match. yup, sakto yung #74 sa 200, kaya lang for some reason, nahirapan din ako isaksak.

Haha. Nakakatakot naman yung subs mo PB! parang mayuyupi ang bubong kapag bumayo hahaha!

[promdiboy]

sa 200 ginamit ko yung may black socket, t1.5 yata tawag. pinadalhan din kita. shoot na shoot yun, just press muna sa butas papasok bago twist.

available siguro yung megs plastx sa shangrila hans tools or True value. galing nito sa clear plastic.

[pajerokid]

yup, pumasok naman sa 200 pre...medjo nahirapan lang.

Hi Guys, jst new in this forum. Actually jst registered a few mins ago. Anyway, kudos to PK (pajerokid) & PD (promdiboy) dami ako natutunan..Anyway, jst bought a second hand Fieldmaster (White, 4x2) last month. Already drove it to Baguio and was happy about its performance. Anyway, have some questions lang: 1> plan to install fog lamps. what is the best? 2> When is the best time to use the power mode? how do you know you are in the power mode? is the system intelligent enough not to switch in power mode even though you already switch it? 3> What are you guys using for your ATF? what brand ang ok? Appreciate any feedback. Salamat. :-)

bros.. tanong ko lang po.. kung sino sainyo may mga clear pics ng.. over-rider na may foglight for gen2? na nilabas ng ipf? yung pareho po kay sir kcboy...

thanks..

[promdiboy]

welcome to tsikot pajman,

il try to answer your questions
1. the best would be to go oem, pati switch oem, kasi adjustable yung foglights. just dunno how much na ito ngayon, baka mas mura na. yung gamit namin ni PK essuse (taiwan) but bumili si PK ng orig switch para oem look sa loob. gallit kasi yun sa aftermarket look.

2. ako i never used power mode, manual switch siya sa tabi ng ashtray natin. and merong indicator sa dash ng power and hold, pag naka power mode ka, parang naka racing mode ka, it has nothing to do with the engine, sa tranny lang, it revs all the way up bago magupshift, and it downshifts agad sa konting diin ng accelerator. hence very jerky ang ride. imho di mo kailangan gawin to, since diesel engines natin are not designed to rev that high, plus mas malakas sa diesel, kawawa lang 4m40 natin. benefit lang nito feeling mo masbilis kasi parang galit yung makina, but in reality mabagal ka parin plus you'll belch black smoke like a squid kapag biglang rev mo engine. dont go beyond 2.5k rpm, pag dating ng 2k rpm let go of the accelerator para mag upshift na, mas tatagal buhay ng 4m40 mo.
3. any dexron 2 pwede, i only used caltex kasi yan ang sinabi saakin ng casa na gamit din nila. i read sa ibang pajero forums, that ang sign din na kailangan mo na magpalit ng ATF is yung ilaw sa dash, pag start mo dapat mawala siya agad. pag mas matagal na better change it na. but siempre the best parin to smell your atf kung amoy sunog na.

Hi to all!
I plan to replace my tires with Pirelli Scorpion STR (265 70 R16). Are there any bad feedbacks on these tires?
Thanks

[Paj-Man]

PD, Thank you for your reply. Learning a lot from you guys.

Anyway guys,.....here are more clarifications:

1> For the OEM fog lamps mga how much and where to buy (Jaffas ba? etc.) After reading d previous threads, was planning na for the Essuse, but if you say the OEM is better will check it out.
2> Transmission is in power mode if naka press pa harap yung switch, right? pag nasa middle normal mode. D kase umiilaw yung "power" pag switch ko. Pag switch to Hold, ilaw naman sa dashboard "HOLD".
3> My headlight washer (passenger side) has a leak. tumatagos yng tubig. how do i check / remove the headlight washer (safest and easiest way)?
4> Naka Ralliart na mags na ako... do you guys really follow the tire pressure which is 26 and 29 sa front and back respectively? Im used to driving sedans kase and having all the tire pressures are 30.
5> What leather cleaner are you guys using for your seats? gusto ko kase yung amoy leather.
6> What cleansing material do you guys used to removed the libag sa front door handles (yng sa loob noh)? and also sa armrest for the front seats?

eto muna for now.... many tnx for feedbacks.

[promdiboy]

paj man

1. oem is better but more than double yung price.
2. korek, palitan mo lang bulb sa dash, merong instructions si PK na ginawa. may chance din na baka sira yung switch, if this is the case baka di rin gumana yung power. nasa econo lang siya.
3. pag kinabitan ka ng foglights pwede mo isabay pag repair ng headlight washer. tatanggalin din naman corner bumpers.
4. i keep my tires at 36 psi preference ko lang.
5. no need for leather cleaners or creme. vinyl lang yung seats natin. I use megs all purpose cleaner to clean my seats.
6. baka di na libag yan, sa handle usually nag fade pati yung steering wheel and armrest. crack na yung vinyl. i also use megs APC to clean these areas. it even works for our ceiling.


rasimeon, nagamit ko palang scorpion AT, medyo matigas siya, compared to bridgestone.

[pajerokid]

PB, sure ka vinyl seats tayo? alam ko leather yung seating surfaces.... plus, iba kasi reaction ng leather conditioner sa kanya e kesa armor all lang.

[Paj-Man]

PD,

Tnx Man!!!

[AC]

PB, sure ka vinyl seats tayo? alam ko leather yung seating surfaces.... plus, iba kasi reaction ng leather conditioner sa kanya e kesa armor all lang.

sir PB
sa alam ko din nga po.. leather seats tayo... they call it half leather po yata.. harap lang ang leather:D

[promdiboy]

hihihi, I cant recall saan ko nabasa, but I think sa pinasdetailing forums dati ni sir theveed (sa kanya ko na appreciate ang detailing), parang nasabi sa isang thread dun na leatherete or vinyl lang mga locally installed seat covers. kelseats yata may gawa. pls correct me nalang kung mali alala ko,
kinompare ko rin siya sa 2 SUV namin na may genuine leather, usdm lc80 and gen 3 rav4, malambot yung texture ng true leather. ang pangit lang sa true leather nag kacrack literally cracked unlike saatin na nauubos lang yung pinakatop layer and nariwrinkle.

[promdiboy]

sir PB
sa alam ko din nga po.. leather seats tayo... they call it half leather po yata.. harap lang ang leather:D

half leather? napaisip ako dito ah, hehe you mean yung inner part (wrinkled) ang leather and outer vinyl?
AC di ako sir, lolo or papa PB nalang

[fieldmaster]

Hi sirs:


Reading through the posts madami dami na recommended na shops na pwede puntahan, is there a one shop that specialized on pajeros, yung fm natin 2.8.

Was thinking dun nako paservice parati and parts like Fuel Filter Air cleaner.


Posted also somewhat last week but would you consider 275 Bridgestone A/T 694 on your ralli art mags? or stick with the 265. Really close on getting na kasi 4 pcs.


Many thanks for your opinions too.

[promdiboy]

fieldmaster get the 275, kung konti lang difference, ganyan din size gamit ko. mas gwapo,

Pk i ordered 2 taillight leds, kaso sa gen 4 ko lalagay, masyado mahal pag sa gen 2.5 kasi apat tail lights. 3 watts luxon led. dual intensity. 25 bucks each. I'l let you know kung alin mas brighter,
