Facelifted Montero? Don't be fool by those tsismis Expect that on year 2011 or later as the current model is only over a year old (since Aug '08)

good day sir easyman3
sad to hear the latest experienced that you're getting from your monty .mine is one of the oldest in the club and i am so proud of it,never have any problem so far...
just cant figure it out where the kerosene smell is coming from .,so,i just assumed that maybe recently you got your monty rust proofed or the aircon is always set to outside air ,sucking all the unwanted smell emitted from the other car.
hope to hear some update regarding this issue.TIA

cheers

Hi there. No rust proof. Aircon is always internal circulating moded (lighted yelow).
The technician in Mitsu said they did some adjustment under the dashboard. Am testing the effect right now.
ah i just realized that maybe the aircon from the rear!! because i was using the rear aircon regularly lately. maybe i need to check that.

The Monterosport is built in Thailand and all the parts are sourced from Thailand; including engine, ecu, radiator, aircon and even the wheels all are made in Thailand. Why would the dealer say the replacements would come from Japan? Since the Monterosport is not a JDM-vehicle unlike the 09 Pajero or the Lancer Evo-X.

The cruel conspiracy is that they just might hold your unit off for the time being until they could justify that it needs to be written-off so they could get more money out of you by getting another montero from them with your insurance write-off.

I heard this is what happened to flooded BMW units they were completely written-off and the owners are forced to get new cars from them since BMW parts are really hard to come by and have prices which would be worth more than the actual car. You can actually see the flooded BMW units at their warehouse in Bicutan inside the KIA-Motors Compound.

It maybe built in Thailand, but some electronic parts like ECU's, ABS CU, etc. are still made in japan.

Guys how true is the MMC plan na papalitan na ang 3.2 (4m41) engine ng 2.5 (4D56HP) sa GLS SE? The new 2.5 liters engine will make an output of 178 horsepower and 400 nM of torque. Sa Australia ay ganun na nga ang nangyari, wherein the 3.2 (4M41) engine was jettisoned and was replaced by the 2.5 (4D56 High Powered) with VGT. Which makes the Montero (Challenger sa Australia) the most powerful body in a frame SUV. Kailan kaya darating to sa 'Pinas? Sana sa 2010 na, start saving na po tayo kung ganon.

I don't think that our local Mitsu will downgrade the SEs engine since it is one of the features why it is a Special Edition in the first place.

Now as for the Challenger, it is practically the same unit that was launched in Moscow last year which is now known here as the Ukraine variant/edition. The difference is that in Russia they had the extra option of a 3.5-litre V6 petrol engine and they didn't carry the VGT equipped engine.

I also find it quite interesting that the speculation of the 2010 variant features items that can be easily added-on to the current variant like the color keyed rear cladding, lcd from an SE, power seats from the SE, etc which is the same banana for me actually, give or take a few minor items.

But as for a full model change? XTO is right, we're miles away from that.

just my :twocents:
