New Mitsubishi Strada [ARCHIVED]

[boybit]

exactly sir moxxx!! kaya ang ginagawa nalang namin ng mekaniko ko is change oil at 10K and filters at 5K, pero when i was driving 3K a month we did 5K changes for both the oil and filter....

as per sir thepatriarch, tama si sir tungkol sa price ng mitsu turboXp as compared to the other brands, MAHAL per liter!!!!! am planning on eventually changing to motul when the warranty lapses. i think sir boybit uses otul on his

actually you dont need to wait for the warranty lapse, coz here in mitsubishi balintawak u have 2 choices, turbo xp, and motul crdi oil, but motul is more expensive. sir arvin if ur running 3000km a month it is more economical to change oil every 10 k or a little less around 8k(5k miles). coz I think u travel a lot and far. u seldom start and go and caught in traffic jam like most of us. ur oil is healthier than most of the oil driving in traffic and the city.specially those who stop and go bec. of several meeting during most of the day.

sir boosted, what they are describing is really for cold starting, the reason why you have to depress the accelerator is so that there would be enough warm fuel to compress and combust inside the combustin chamber when the engine is cranked, diesel engines are very notorius for not starting up properly regardless they be new or old, when the weather gets really cold...and i do mean cold, usually the only time you would be doing that here is when you want to start up an engine wich is already what we call "LOOSE COMPRESSION" usually these are the jeepneys, AUV's and old diesel engines..

sir arvin, during the pre heat period u r not warming the fuel, u r warming the air inside the chamber. diesel will only be introduce to the chamber when the piston is almost on top dead center, not the same as gas engine which the fuel mixture is introduce during intake process

[quote=sTrAdA_08;1024382]guys, tanong ko lang kung meron dito strada owner na naka super black tint?
kasi im having a hart time driving at night.. im planning to change my tint.. our ride is not yet 1week old..

tanong ko narin kung saan maganda magpapalit ng tint? ung front and windshield lang... how much?

tnx![/quote
my windshied tint was installed for 1k at autobahn banawe. 3m ang brand, color the lightest that they hve at walang dugtong na tulad ng dati

[boybit]

got my new motolite gold maintenance free battery from the casa. when i inquired kung how much ang difference ng synthetic and mineral oil, the service advisor told me that they have a new circular recommending synthetic oil for 'high-end' crdi motors with turbo intercooler. how true is this?

for the 5k pms here is the supposed breakdown:

PhP 4,080 = 8 liters of synthetic oil
995 = oil filter
223 = OWS (what is this?)
63 = Varsol (again what is this?)
8 = rags
------------
PhP 5,369 ++ Total

Need clarification BOSBs....

note: if ur planning to use fully synthetic oil, go for motul coz of is 5w 40. the thinner the oil the faster it lubricates the engine during cold start w/c is the most critical moment of the engine wear and tear. masmabilis at magaan i pump ang thinner oil. besides mabilis nya rin ma lubricate ang mga smallest tolerance ng mga mechanical parts ng engine. since it is new all tolerance are so tight that even the thinnest strand of hair wont go through. then after several years gamitan mo ng heavier oil to make the engine more silent since lumaki na ang tolerance due to wear. And good engine oil is mabilis dumumi o umitim. coz tinutunaw at tinatangal nila ang mga dirt and sludge due to high detergent additives. In fact it is better to change oil more frequently kaso sobrang taaas ng maintenance pag maaga ka mag palit sa fully synth, even in 10k change oil hinde parin equal sa maintenace cost ng regular oil. actually ang habol mo lang sa fully synthic is the ability of the oil to withstand xtreme heat not only the engine but the also the turbo. turbo ang pinaka maselan sa lahat ng part ng diesel engine. dahil bumabaga yan sa init , lalo na sa high reving at long drive direct from the exhaust manifold. kaya important yun turbo timer. para maiWASAn ang sudden cut ng oil supply sa turbo when u shut down the engine while the turbo is in exteme temp. susunugin nya lang yun oil na natira sa kanya at mamumuo na parang carbon fleck and masisira yin bearing inside

sir boybit....all i can say to you sir is....!!!
tapos, sir mas mura ba yung motul na nakukuha mo as compared to the store in edsa? kasi they're saying that they're the distributor of motul here

[eslonblue]

That's really weird.

As per instruction by the chief mechanic here, one should start the engine after the engine check indicator light goes off which is around 10 secs after the heater indicator light disappears. Been doing that eversince, and still no starting problems.


Sa mga nagbabalak ng stebel magnum, di na kailangang pakinggan. Maganda ang tunog. Lalo na kung apat. Ano sa tingin mo, ThePatriarch. Dagdagan mo pa yan :evillaugh

sabi naman sakin na kahit hndi nadaw antayin mawala yung engine check indicator light kasi crdi naman na daw yung engine..pero inaantay ko padin mawala yung light bago ako mag start..

naku pag aapatin pa yung stebel baka mapaaway din sa lasing pag na businahan hahaha

mga BOSB's here's a pic i took of my ride this afternon at one of my job sites.

W0W! very nice picture sir! pang trabaho talaga..galing!
parang beauty and the beast hehe jowk lang

[ooba99]

Sir arvin, saw your pic. Ganda kuha ah. Sino nanalo sa off-road race?

[eslonblue]

sir, ok po ba ung medium tint at night? nahirapan kasi ako sa dark.. ndi ko makita ung side mirrors and ung end ng truck bed..

saan po kayo nagpalagay ng tint?

concern ko din dati sir yung tint days before getting my unit nag tanong din ako dito sa mga BOSB

medium ako sides and rear..light ako sa windshield pero full tint..
hndi sya mahirap sa gabi sir, light pa yung harap ko kaya may pumapasok padin onting liwanag..
silhouette lang kita sa luob except pag na ilawan ng malakas, makikilala ka na..

[av8or5]

good morning guys.

Couple of days na lang, then 4th EB na. Who's strada will come with new accessories this time? hmmmm.

[moxxxs]

last question nalang po.. may marerecommend po ba kayong place kung saan pwede mag pa tint? QC area po (UP diliman)

tnx!

Bro, gamit ko 3M super dark sa side and rear windows. sa windshield naman 3M magic black yung parang silver siya pag tinamaan ng araw or street lamps. Ok naman sa night driving ang magic black sa windshield considering my eyes are both 150+ vision (no longer 20/20).

good morning guys.

Couple days na lang, then 4th EB na. Who's strada will come with new accessories this time? hmmmm.

Siyempre si Atty. Patriarca

BOSBs,

eto quote sa akin ng el dorado for change oil package

"Good day to you Bro!

Yes po, the Cubao and Bicutan branches still honor the Change oil package as advertized dito sa thread.

You will need 6 liters of Synthetic oil (xp turbo) at 450 per liter. If mineral lang, 130 lang per liter ang ating promo price.

Your oil filter has two variants. ang pang 3000 kilometer lang, 550 lang po, pero ang pang 5000 Kilometer life, 590 po ang promo price. Both filters however, are Genuine Mitsubishi Philippines na product, so no worry, just follow the proper PMS niya.

Labor po sa either Cubao and Bicutan branch for the change oil is only 150 po for club members.

Hope to be of service Bro... till then... be safe and keep on riding!"
