    sir, could you tell me which of the two tire pressure configurations is for comfort and which one is for FC? Don't know much about these things. We'll be going to a very long trip this weekend and I would value comfort more than FC for this trip, well actually, preferably a balance of the two. It will be mostly concrete roads (95%) and a few bumpy terrains near the end (5%).

    Sir, my practic was front tire 30 PSI, rear 32 PSI......+-10%

    but do check the tire first thing in the morning,when the temp of tire is cold, when you start rolling, the temp of tire will increase........

Unlike the fortuners, its not locked that way, but through bolts under the car. That's why people opted to put chains and locks on their fortuners.. Another is, with the fortuner, you can see the tire from the back. With ours you can't, there's still some sort of a shell/cover around it.
    Oh... thank you for the clarification. Our SA showed us how to remove the spare tire of the Montero. He showed us the screw knob and even demonstrated how to release it. My mistake was, I thought Fortuners are also like this, with a screw knob in the compartment. We researched on it and found out that some deflate the tire of the Fortuner to loosen the bolts. I'm not sure how it's done exactly. But since we have tire covers, I guess even with the "deflate" method, it can't be done. Thanks again.

    Then again, wouldn't hurt to check once in a while if it's still there. Some robbers are just too resourceful in finding ways.

    Thanks. I'll just have to check my tire pressure in the morning as well as before we leave for the weekend.

MMPC could not have that kind of sir ntyce (made by a-toy) since it will cover the emblems. MMPC could not alter nor remove any original parts installed on the MS as this would be a violation of intellectual property rights of Mitsu Japan.

    the rear lower garnish that i saw this morning, is not that as fat or embosed type (shown on pic). MMPC has [probably] improved the design of the new garnish to make it look part and flushed to the original bumper design. {not sure though since i have not seen it installed yet; but i really hope that the one i ordered is a better (flattened) design}

    Oh well i guess i'm violating the INTELLECTUAL PROPERTY RIGHTS OF MITSU JAPAN! Even if our cars aren't japanese.. but hey, i'm still in violation. hahahaha

    Anyways.. CONGRATS on your upgrades/modification j*sto! Keep up the good work! Definitely your car is blowing mine away with all your setup! CONGRATS SIR!

So far haven't added anything to the system though dahil full naman siya (the radiator-up to the cap gasket level). Any implications or things i need to do? (Does it qualify it as candidate for the blown radiator? - hehehe - Wag naman sana) Does it have any effect on warranties, etc? TIA
    honestly, i dont think anything will happen if you open your radiator cap and peak it.. but of course, you should always check your reservoir if its in the right level. once radiator losses the water, it sucks the fluid from the reservoir to make up for loss fluid in the radiator system.

    Thanks

    So that's why it's always full when i take a peak

    by the way, guys need help

    eto nangyari sa seatcover ko


    nagleak kasi yung thinner na binili ko..DAMN!!!!

    what should I do next? bili ako kaagad ng bagong seatcover..?
    Go to a used car dealer. The 'himas boys' who recondition/detail used cars can repaint it for you using vinyl paint.

    That's what they did to the worn out seats of my Nissan. Mine was done by Cario at 97 Cordillera St. (behind Sta. Teresita Gen. Hospital in D.Tuazon nr. Banawe). Wala silang signage. Just knock on the big brown gate. Rates for repainting can vary. For a section like that I'm sure it won't hit Php1,000.00

    That's what they do also to the used cars they sell to make the leather look fresh.
