Montero Sport GLX 2.5 Non-VGT Owners

[monty_GTV]

Gusto ko po sana mabalik lang muna yung state nya before ko sya dalhin sa casa for the 1st pms since wala naman kasi ung problem ko na yun sa smoke when idling before taking it to them I checked din sa montero ng tita ko since sabay kami kumuha ehh yung sa kanila wala talagang smoke when idling.

Nagregister ako dito kasi alam ko meron makakatulong sa mga query ko since hindi pa ako marunong sa technicalities pagdating sa sasakyan hehehe.. Maraming salamat po mga sir hehehe.. :D

iirc, may nakabanggit dati na montero user din na meron yata silang binabago sa ecu during sa 1st pms. paglabas ng casa, either naka torque priority mode o fuel economy yata yung setting. paglabas yata naka torque priority kaya malakas ang hatak, then after 1st pms binabago na using yung laptop nila. may mga instances talaga na nagiging mahina na response and worst, naging mausok kasi binago na yung setting sa ecu. better bring it back sa casa. maliban sa casa, may mga fix din yan like EGR cleaning at blanking nabanggit na ni sir prince.

dito sa naman sa tsikot, marami talaga makakatulong. almost all the issues sa respective cars natin ay na-discuss na so read lang yung mga related threads sa queries mo. search muna yung topic then kapag talaga wala mahanap na sagot o similar topic then ask na at maraming makakasagot niyan.

Sir monty_GTV

pwede po kaya pag first PMS ko, pa-adjust ko yung HP/NM value?! (add power) hehehe

ganun ba yun sir? ang lakas kasi ng konsumo nung amin. baka naka-torque mode kung may ganyan nga

Got my rig from Diamond Greenhills Inc (tapat ng Poveda)
Due na ako for 5k pms, had the 1k done there and oks naman.
Any feedback from this dealership as far as PMS are concerned?
Am also thinking of going to Diamond Q Ave kasi mas malapit sa amin

Sa aftersales medyo negative sila...
Had to wait for 5 months bago makuha plates, and I even had to pull strings para mapadali, unfortunately wala pa din sticker up to now.
Ang tagal din pag asikaso sa documentation, or baka naman chopseuy yung agent ko.
Pwede ba mention name here? Baka sakali magising yung sales unit nila

Sir monty_GTV

malamang di pwede sir ;) kung pwede marami na nagpa-adjust. our units are tuned as production model, every variant merong corresponding hp output. although our engines are capable of generating more power, nililimit ng manufacturers ang output for mass production purposes. better still, you can have your rig remapped or install a tuning chip (like racechip, unichip, spiderchip etc) to add more power and better response sa lower rpm. yung remapping, may ilan ng mga ka-member natin sa Montero club nag-tune and they had significant increase in power. sa tuning chip naman, there are plug n play ones and have tweakable settings that you can adjust by yourself. search and read about them, they are posted somewhere among the threads.

Thanks Sir monty_GTV,

Will read the previous backthread about the performance addon, and the differences para malaman ko rin in detailed.

i believe yung powerplant ng monty natin is very powerful, either non-vgt or the vgt version...
sa tunog pa lang at performance during driving. yun lang, it is degraded by the manufacturer.
kaya pigil yung full potential power ng 4D56....hehe

Sir Big-D,

kung ok po ang first PMS in a certain branch, stay na kayo doon...at least may kakilala na kayo para i-assist kayo during the PMS.

about naman sa plates, sa amin, last month lang namin nakuha yung unit at naabutan na kami ng new plate, kaya expected ko na aabutin ng kalahating taon bago ma-release yung plate namin..

at least sa inyo meron na kayong plate, at yung sticker is to follow up na lang, di ko po sure kung sakop pa ng sales agent ang pag-process ng plates, pero for sure meron assigned na tao to follow up yung registration ng sasakyan..

Sirs,

Semi OT question lang po,

tanong ko na rin po kung tama po ba yung observation ko sa Non-VGT engine?!

yung turbo lag, ay ramdam during high gear, (4th-5th gear[60kph to 100kph]) during normal acceleration?!
and during low speed driving, and early shift in low gear, smooth acceleration ang non-VGT, kaya rin tumakbo ng MT ng 2nd gear start, (BTW: 2009 strada non-VGT GLS 4x4 yung na-drive ko)

Chief playpugg, ako din napansin ko yun. Kapag 3rd gear shift with proper timing (40+ kph or 2.2-2.5K rpm) bigla syang mag accelerate pero after ko mag 4th to 5th gear parang mawawala na yun adrenaline rush. Past 110kph ko uli mararamdaman

[Apolnie]

Sir, kung interested kayo sa GPS card namin na same sa offer ng Winterpine mas malaki matitipid niyo, PM niyo lang ako for details. Attachment 20284

Sir Louie,gud pm.tanong ko lng kung magkano gps card mo?

sir miggymontero,

sa VGT kasi, ramdam ang turbo lag sa low gear, kaya medyo mabigat ang application ng acceleration pedal, saka kung early shift naman, grabe ang vibration at differential backslash, pero kung nasa 4th 5th gear na, smooth na...80KPH above...

kaya mas efficient ang non-VGT for city/semi highway driving, ang VGT will be efficient sa long highway driving.

Alrigth chief playpugg!

Regarding pala sa backslash, na-experience ko yun kapag shifting from 1st to 2nd gear on less than 1K rpm. Ang optimal shifting points ba based sa rpm or kph or just feel the engine(heheh)?

Sir miggymontero,

same thing din, mas malakas ang backslash for the VGT,

pareho lang yung gear ratio ng 2wd at 4wd, ang difference lang naman yung transfer case for 4wd..

since na MT ang units po natin, by RPM or feel the engine...hehe

medyo malakas lang nga sa fuel consumption, safe na yung maximum of 2500RPM for shifting gears...
pero matipid naman pag naka-high gear na, kahit tumakbo ng 100KPH, safe speed na sa engine.


may speed sensor kasi yung sasakyan natin, kaya pag alanganin yung shifts sa gear, parang ewan na hindi maintindihan yung makina...

pag-aaralan ko pa yung technical manual ng monty...

marami palang hidden special features ang sasakyan natin at naka drive-by-wire na po ang sasakyan natin.....

Nice! Ayus chief playplugg! Heheh

[miggymontero]

Mga sirs, ask ko lang sa inyo kung sino na ang nakabili sa inyo ng tire cover sa import elementz? Maganda ba un fit nya & quality? Or iba pa din un binebenta sa casa?

[Apolnie]

Sir zix, pa pm po ng price ng mga mods at contact no. mo.thanks!

[wyeshua]

good day guys,,my n16 (only) is blanked,di ba mapupuno ng carbon/deposit yung tubo na nakaconnect sa egr cooler(which is my blanking point),kelangan din ba linisin yung tubo na yun?

hi sir wyeshua, may build up din yan ng carbon pero kahit di na linisan hindi problema. yung isang dulo niyan sa turbo exhaust naka-connect (N15) kaya ok lang. wala din sensor sa part na yan so hindi mag-eerror.

Received the gps sd card from sir Anson yesterday and is now working flawlessly. Will be using it for our trip to Baguio tomorrow and give more feedback later on. thanks sir!
