So far, satisfied naman ako sa service sa SFM San Pablo. Familiar na rin sila sa common problems ng Strada, and they know how to deal w/ them. Although, di pa ako tapos sa investigation ko sa issue re: manual transmission oil change during my last 30k PMS. Will go back there within this week for my 35k PMS.

sir, the bulb sizes of our strada is h4 for the headlights and h11 for our foglights. I think the bulb size difference explains why it is focused to the right.

Hi guys,

Im relatively new to this forum and been reading information on Mitsubishi Strada. I have been contemplating on purchasing a 2010 Mitsubishi Strada GLS 2.5 4x4 M/T. However Ive been thinking of the GLX model also.. Any latest update and recommendation on both?

Secondly, if I go for the GLS, any advice on how to deal with dealers so I would have the best deal? Im looking at doing around 40% down and financing the balance. Is bank financing or In-house better? How do I bargain with agent/dealers? Any one just got a new Mitsubishi Strada? Whats the latest Price?

Lastly, If I get an strada, What cover for the truck would you suggest and where can i get one? Im actually looking at a sports lid....

Update me guys... Thanks in advance for all the help... How

if you want a 4x4, then the gls is your pick, now if you don't need the 4x4, go for the glx, and use the extra cash to set up your strada. i'm no expert but from experience, going thru you bank financing will get you a better rate than in house financing.

as for the sport lid, try carryboy and miggyboy. those are the 2 that are most refered by the posters here in the forum. good luck on your purchase.

any one having problem with their check engine light in the strada? mine keeps turning on and off. it will usually turn on during extended usage and turn off when the strada has not been used for a few days.

Whats the fastest in house or bank in approving financing? thanks

Sir do you have any thing put on the engine or change any thing? but the best way is to bring to the casa and have it check to know what t6he cause is.

I got jumbled up...the GLS doesn't have EBD, ABS and LSD, Only the GLS sport have it...

thats according to the last spec sheet that I have read...

besides the engine its the ones I posted above..

the strada's headlights are fitted only with a H4 type of Bulb and HID and for the foglights it uses H11....so How come you've installed H3's?

can you elaborate more about it?

Yes I know it's just h4. I bought a 6000k hi lo kit that means that when it's on dim hid bulbs are on and when put it to bright there's a h3 halogen that will turn oon in the same bulb. There are two bulbs I. The h4.

ahh I see then....well, that's something new to list on my fact sheet because all along I call the H3 inside the H4 bulb as the the bright fillament..I didn't know that it was a H3 inside the H4 bulb asembly

.....thanks sir for explaining!

for your problem It would be best if you consult the store where you bought it from....rather than fixing it yourself...

clarify ko lang regarding the ABS and EBD sa mga strada, the first batch of GLs stradas to arrive in the country were equipped with this feature plus a few more that you can not find in the GLs of present and the same goes for the alarm inclusive functions like turbo timer and remote engine start and engine kill switch that even the sports models don't get anymore.

reasons why these features were rmoved were the usuall to make the units more competitive in the market...blahblahblah....
