Wala pa naman akong piyesang hindi nahanap. :D hehehe. Hindi pa nga kami nag-rerecalibrate or any major engine work. Puro maintenance lang. Mas mausok pa Pajero ko.

patulong lang hindi ko matanggal yung headlight ng mb, kasi yung manual ko korean di ko maintindihan. kakabit ko kasi yung hose ng windshield washer sa motor nya nahugot di yata pwedeng dukotin ng hindi tinatanggal yung headlight. dalawang turnilyo lang nakalabas tapos yung isa sa signal light tanggal ko na yung tatlo ayaw parin matanggal nung head light. salamat.

Kakapalit ko lang ng foglamp bulb.

To remove the headlamp:
Remove two nuts in the middle/inner side of the headlamp

Remove turn signals. One screw is on top of headlamp near the outer edge. The other below the front part of the signal lamp.

TAKE OUT THE SIGNAL LAMP (Careful, you might break the clips)

You will expose two 10mm nuts that hold the headlamp. Take these off.

Pull headlamp wiring harness off (it is on the outer edge of the headlamp accessible from above).

Pull headlamp away from vehicle.

Installation is reverse of removal.

thanks doc! i have already attached the hose to the washer and perfectly working now. i have another slight problem, the sliding windows of my mb are very hard to open! what lubricant can i use to make it more easy to slide? im worried that it might get stock.

thanks again and Happy New Year!!!

Hmmm...never bothered to lubricate the windows since I don't like the passengers opening them. Probably makes it more difficult for thieves, too.

You can try mineral oil. They sell it at your local drugstore.

Have a '97 since new. No problems with it. Pioneer HU, basic AV set up. Had all the recall items fixed by CATS (door handles, air intake, A/C plumbing).

Basically stock and running on Goodyear Wrangler tires.

Good! BUY ba ang MB100? meron parin bang parts! anong model and best buy!

Satisfied pa din kami. Drove it December 27 to Pampanga, medyo overloaded pa dahil 13 kaming sakay and with luggage pero comfy pa din sa loob. Natraffic ako pagluwas ng Manila dahil sa illegal parking sa Balintawak market pero ok din lang. Magaan naman dalhin MB100.

Best buy would be the unit in the best condition, I guess. Since they are all used cars. I prefer local units even if the imports have more features.

If you find one that had been properly maintained by the owner, and driven by the owner himself then it should be a good buy.

My Tito had one which i used from time to time; it was basically stock except for the Alpine CD changer, stepboard, roof rail and upgraded headlight wirings/bulbs. It also had it's share of problems but was generally reliable and was used out of town a lot... repairs and rust started mounting after the 3rd year (it was driver driven though)... they sold it after using it for around 6 years w/ 100,000kms on the odo.
