New Mitsubishi Montero Sport [ARCHIVED]

[Pink Floyd]

Hi Sir Pink Floyd,

I own a Sedona Red and based on my experience okay naman siya sa maintenance. Of course since it's darker in color, mas mabilis makita yung dumi but regular cleaning is not that difficult naman. I would highly recommend the Ziebart Diamond Gloss for the Sedona Red color or any other dark color for that matter. Have it done immediately after receipt of the unit para spotless pa siya.

Medyo pricey at around 9K for the initial application and 50% every year thereafter but sulit naman. Sa akin, water lang and then wipe down, parang parating naka-wax...

Hope this helps!

Thanks to all Sedona Red MS owner who replied! Ganda talaga ng dating ng color! Problem is Im more "always on the go" type. No much time for cleaning my car. What about if Cool Silver or White. Any comment on this color. By the way, hoping to get my unit before Christmas!

hello fellow ms owners.

i noticed that my MS is taking a bit long in starting the engine in the morning. i would not say it's hard starting but it's obviously longer than a normal 1 click start. I don't know if i somehow damaged the battery since i had instances before when i just used it once a week. What i know is that the stock battery of our monty is not the typical maintenance free that is available in the market. Do you guys think that the battery might need to be replenished with distilled water to operate much better? Need your advice here guys. Thanks a lot.

Silver is one of the easiest colors to maintain. Kahit madumi, maganda pa rin.

Don't go for white/black if hindi ka maalaga sa exterior and don't have the patience to really clean/wax every so often.

Usually, when the engine is still cold, you have to switch on the ignition, then wait about 2-3 seconds before starting, making sure that the coil figure beside the check engine light has turned off, to ensure ignition during starting. About the battery, when you open each of the 6 cell covers, you have to make sure that all the plates of the battery is soaked. If not you have to put distilled water. I use absolute distilled, but do not overfill the cells, as the level would increase during charging. But I think, you won't have to worry about that for the first year.

Already visited and registered although I'm not a newcomer.

sir drivensteven, I think I saw your montero this morning at Diamond Motors Valle Verde and it has no rear bumper? I hope nothing bad happened. I was there for my monty's 15000 km PMS.

^^^ Oh really? Sayang..Hinde tayo nagkita doon? I had my bumper repainted

Wow thanks sir for the enlightenment! All of the while I thought white is the easiest to maintain.

Smoke is entering my montero!!! All my coat smells like kerosene after two days. with my other car, even if the coat stays for a month, it wont smell like kerosene.
