New Mitsubishi Montero Sport [ARCHIVED]

[Howie]

hi,

i am about to get a montero sport 4x2, my concern is will the 2.5 engine be some what under power? and another one is the resale value. I haven't seen this brought up this in thread so far.

thanks.

hi kurdt,

there are a couple of testimonials already about the power of the 2.5L, 4x2, you just need to read a few pages back. 2.5L, 4x2 din ang unit ko and i must say na it's quite strong. i tested na ibitin sa mga steep slope dito sa amin sa bulacan and i mean really steep, swabe naman ang recovery. overtaking is not a concern at all. but you also need to ask yourself how you will be using the unit? if your the rugged type and your driving terrain is very challenging or you simply want to have a feel of power, i suggest that you go for the 3.2L, 4x4. pero kung city driving and for family use lang, for me ok na yung 2.5L, 4x2.
about the resale value naman, i considered that also before i bought my unit, but since it's new in the market wala pang makapag-advise. so what i did is compare it to the pajero, since they fall under the same category. the last time i check, a 1994 pajero is still going for about 900k to 1M. 40 to 50% depreciation in 5 years, hindi na masama yun.
i hope this helps...

cheers,
howie

thanks sir XTO. yes the manual is included and i've read it pero which one is the valet button switch? my remote has 4 buttons... the lock, unlock, trunk, and the asterisk. am i missing another button? pardon my ignorance hehehe.

not sure where they put it in the 4X2 but i think same lang. valet switch is the blue LED blinking sir. indicator and switch in one. you can push it anytime hehe.

hi! another inquiry po... is it possible to install a rear foglamp on my 4x2? how much would it cost and where? thank you!

try to call CASA sir i think you can buy those yun nga lang baka by order pa kasi exclusive yan for GLS-SE like ng kila sir JPG111

hi howie,

thanks for your opinion, I guess the 2.5 will be enough for me. I hope you're right about the resale value

Guys any opinion on the re-sales value?

cheers!

hi! may concern lang po ako regarding sa alarm...

bakit pag pinatay ko yung engine then bumaba ako ng sasakyan ng hindi ko nilolock, pag after one minute binuksan ko ulit yung doors tumutunog yung alarm? is there any way para ma-adjust ito? thanks po.

Sir, pede po i-configure yan. Pede nyo i check sa manual (Separate ung manual ng code alarm since dito na sa atin kinakabit yan) or pinaka-safe e dalhin sa CASA -Accessories Section. May nakasabay na ako sa Citimotors Makati na pina enable nya ung auto lock. Ako kse I prefer yung auto arm lang. May history na kse ako ng nakaiwan ng susi

yung regarding po sa alarm...

nakakairita lang kunyari nagpapa carwash ka tapos you close the doors but leave it unlocked syempre. then pag bubuksan na nila to clean the interior, ayun mag aalarm na... and i always have to press the remote para mamatay yung alarm.

May valet mode po yung alarm natin. Turn on the key ignition -> press the blue button/light for 3 seconds, pag nag steady na ung ilaw. valet mode na sya. To turn off valet mode, Turn on the key ignition -> push the blue button/light.

you mean stock rims?


6 x 139, 17 x 7.5j
265/65/17. offset di ko pa sure yung sa stock bro hehe

Sir migs,

Thanks for the prompt reply. So to cut things short sir, all i need to say when sourcing out for new shoes for my MS is if they have 6 x 139 wheels and i'm ready to go, whether in banawe or discount stores in the US or anywhere for that matter?
