New Mitsubishi Montero Sport [ARCHIVED]

[chng238]

[quote=JPG111;1291003]Yes sir they ask for extra charge if you choose "super black" , Free tint only applies for the medium black on side/rear windows & visor .. I had my windshield tinted 1 piece at winterpine..

Hi sir JPG, do you mind to tell our new Montero friends, how much you pay for the one pcs. of Super black at winterpine????

[fermontalban]

lesson learned: mind my own ms

Is this because of me? If it is, please understand that I appreciate the inputs you gave and concern regarding my MS. In fact, you clarified things for me.

HI sir,

As i understand about immobilizer from my ex Audi A6, it was a chip embeded inside the car key...every time when you start the engine, the sensor will sense the chip inside the key...when the code is correct, it will not cut the engine...

My experience was i use the spare key,made from outside store, it can start the engine, but it was cut off after 1 mins....so the the spare key sayang..

Sayang, I guess we really should take good care of our keys. I can imagine casa will ask for a premium amount of cash if ever we need a new one.

it's there . from the disarmed condition, turn the ignition to on position > press and hold the valet push-button switch for a few seconds or until the light becomes steady. rearming it, press and release the button switch anytime while the ignition is on.

Like what sir stubby said, I believe this is the valet mode. I was hoping to take out the passive/automatic arm feature entirely.

oh i see. thanks for the correction sirs.

* ching comparing mine to yours was a mismatch you should have compared your's with Mikko's HID coz both of you are using 50W , mine is 35W because 50W wasnt available when i had mine installed Nov. last year .. Mine is brighter na if i switch on the high beam

*xto, chng, jpg111...i had my first experience of night driving with my ms (worst; it was raining) and felt the need for the headlights upgrade. i've seen your recommendation of 50W 6000Kelvin and 3000Kelvin for the low beam and foglights respectively; question is how much was that upgrade? what brand did you get? where? i was quoted P7K for each for xenon brand from the accessory shop where i got my sound set-up; and i thought i could probably get it cheaper somewhere else. pm me of your recommended shop please. tia

*mikko...sorry i missed that last eb. 'looking forward to have a chance again to meet you and see your ms. 'feel free to answer my above query too. ty

sir j*sto,

Lxsunworx - Taiwan brand with 14 months warranty and was recommend by sir Jpg .
all 35 watts HID single beam 3k t0 8k kelvin : ranging 5t-5,500.00
55 watts HID 6,300 to 6,500 pesos depending on the location for the installation. best price is to met up at Angeles city at Total gas station at angeles exit at NLEX .
got mine at 5k - 35 watts and 6.2 k for the 55 watts.

good lock sa HID project... or better yet join the road trip to Baguio.
Since 25 minutes lang ang installation, it's just like taking a 25 mins break . by the time you knew it wala !!!! done ......HEHEHE or just arrange with the owner noel he can go to your place. i'l pm his cell no.
thanks

Hi Guys,

After the ordeal of forced accessory purchase plus absorbing the price increase plus the month long wait plus the "false promises of having a unit ready but it was given to someone else due to a misunderstanding..."

I think I will finally have my Monty delivered to me this coming Thursday... *keeps fingers crossed*... My question guys, if anyone would be kind enough to chime in is regarding the tint for my Sedona Red Monty...

I asked for super black for the side and rear windows and a one piece medium black tint for the windshield... However, my SA is insisting that the "super black" tint costs more and I'll have to shell out more money as it is outside of their usual rate for dark tints... (As if I haven't shelled out enough money, tsk, tsk)

I just want to get your opinion, for those who have had their Monty's tinted at the dealer prior to delivery if this is true or am I being fed another load of bullcr*p... (excuse the language)...

Your advice would be really appreciated!

Thanks in advance and I hope that I'm welcome to join the club once I get the Monty...

Regards

i had my tint wish completely same with you.

normally tint (regular) is a freebee..... but since we want quality, we opted for 3M film tint..... So, i add up P 3500 in all.

Mine is MS4x2 A/T - DAVAO mitsu dealer

Like what sir stubby said, I believe this is the valet mode. I was hoping to take out the passive/automatic arm feature entirely.

sir, as far as i was told by mitsu casa, the passive arm feature of our monty's code alarm CANNOT be disabled as it is an inherent security feature of this model. been wanting to do the same as well eversince i got my monty

[mikko 828]

hi guys....

* jpg111 , chng238 - Road trip for Baguio ? any particular date/s yet? since September 1 will be our Centennial celebration so that i can check out on the activities set for the celebration.

* stubby - i suppossed you'll join the road trip? you can just bring the 3.2 emblem not in the rush....

* jpg & stubby and all other monty owners out there - just PM or text me if you guys have decided to change your tires set ? you might as well tell me since my neihbor is eyeing on those tire for his starda.

[stubby]

* ching and jpg, i am sure your efforts in planning this upcoming road trip is much appreciated by everyone. i hope this will be the first of many road trips to come! imagine a long trail of montys on the road....photography material!

[lekimluap]

Mga bossing, sama ako sa road trip.. san ba meeting place? sa Bicol? lol

nakakairita nga ung passive nung alarm, lalu na during carwash!
Im worried baka maubos kaagad ung battery nung remote kakapindot.lol

Any monty owners around bulacan in this thread? maybe we could arrange
a mini eb somewhere in bulacan or pampanga.

[djin_xxx]

Good news to all!

Sir XTO,
IMMOBILIZER. meaning we cannot use other key? I have my keys duplicated last march and it started the my montys engine..

[kapitan_dukot]

Like what sir stubby said, I believe this is the valet mode. I was hoping to take out the passive/automatic arm feature entirely.

Sir,

I think Winterpine will be able to program your code alarm to permanently disable the function. After all, sila naman ang nag-install eh.

Pero may question lang ako - the alarm stays in valet mode until you decide to restore it to the normal mode right? In this case, don't you effectively disable the passive/automatic arm feature already?

[tc327]

Sir XTO,
IMMOBILIZER. meaning we cannot use other key? I have my keys duplicated last march and it started the my montys engine..

sir i made duplicate also of my key and when i started it with duplicate it wont kick in to run the engine just starting but not actually running the engine AFIK as what you have said may be your immobilizer is disable,guess lang he he

[djin_xxx]

maybe, hehe but i didnt try using the duplicate while driving hehe btw thanks for sharing sir tc327. i should try it again hehe God Speed!

I hope it is somehow possible. But if it involves modifying the alarm system altogether, I won't push it.

As sir stubby said, the casa said it's not possible. Worth a shot with Winterpine. In valet mode, the system is technically off. I hope to make it just like any other car alarm system, arm the system when you press "lock", disarm when you press "unlock". No more automatic arm feature. I am also a "victim" of the alarm always going off during a carwash. But I'm starting to get the habit of putting it in valet mode before a carwash. But i'd rather not have the auto arm feature at all.

[kapitan_dukot]

I see sir. I guess best bet right now is really Winterpine, as they are the official distributor of Code Alarm in the country. Worst case scenario is that if they don't know how to program it yet, they can contact the source of the particular model and ask them how to do it.

[number001]

So the Montero's alarm is locally installed (specifically by Winterpine with its Code Alarm products)? I was hoping they did something like Toyota wherein everything is done in the factory.

Also how long is the supposed waiting time for a 4x2? Any colors that are particularly in hight demand?

Thanks!

It depends on the mode of payment, In house financing has a shorter waiting time..2 months is the longest waiting period for cash buyers .. Black & White are the colors on high demand..
