Montero Sport GLX 2.5 Non-VGT Owners

* dct & playplug...

Thanks for answer & suggestion guys.

I just came from the dealer sadly wala yun test drive unit nila. Nonetheless it was a very helpful visit as I was able to get an accurate price of the eventual accessories I want installed upon release.

Undecided pa ako sa color although as advised by the SA the new color variant is "virgil gray"... Unfortunately again walang unit at Caloocan branch with that color kaya medyo dissappointed was initially thinking of white or cool silver.

Question lang po sir. Nagpapatest drive na po ba ang mitsu para sa montero?

Pang mabigatan yung ecu remapping guys. W/o other mods bonestock papalo ng 220 hp si monty. Too much sakin, hindi ko naman kelangan ng ganung kalakas na gain para pang overtake lang. Sakin satisfied nako sa tuning chip ko as of now, My future mods are fmic upgrade and rai may dagdag angas din pag binuksan yung hood.

* sir beng, our purpose of having performance mod is the additional gain in power output di ba? so as much as possible we need to get more hp with our peso investment. although i have not done remapping yet, but i think a lot cheaper siya and you get more peso/power return. compared sa more expensive na chip(~25k)+fmic(20k)+rai (?k) installations and you get less power output. yun nga lang as you said may "dagdag angas" when one look under your hood and they see some colorful aftermarket parts. but remapping again will keep everything in stock, a stock looking car but so powerful. sleeper look yata tawag ng mga nagmo-mods sa mga ganyan ;) and yet kapag all stock, i think mas madali rin ibenta.

don't get me wrong sir beng, i just stated some pros and cons. we're on the same route actually. meron na akong existing chip and on the way na din from US yung fmic ko hahaha! i'm thinking now to sell them and have a remapping instead. i want my ride to look as stock as possible kasi eh hahaha!

Does the GLX have TV Tuner? If none magkano yan palagyan sa casa? May addtional antenna ba kailangan? Wifey doesnt care much about GPS (Although sir Louie PM'd you), but she does want to watch her favorite kapamilya shows

Well sir diyan cguro tyo nagkaiba ako kasi gusto ko kasi ng gains with aesthetic looks narin na once pinop yung hood, mapapa ngiwi nalang yung tumingin, ikaw naman pala you want to keep your monty simple pero may lihim na tinatago. Naiisip ko rin yang remapping, pero hindi pa ko na coconvince eh

Hi all. My Monty is no longer under warranty and I am looking for suggestions on the following:

1) Most practical oil to use and where to buy.
2) Still worth it to get a turbo timer installed? If so which brand? My Monty has a mileage of 18k.
3) Also looking on changing the stock car alarm. Is it advisable?

Thanks again and looking forward to getting everyone's input ��

1. try mo Delo 400 or Top1 SDO. you can match it with oil filter like Baldwin BD28 and it can last 10k kms.
2. turbo timer is not a must naman. you can let your car run idle for 2-3 mins paghinto from a long trip and pareho lang naman. but if you like, it's a good protection gadget para sa turbo mo. volution yung brand na nababasa ko na ok daw, may auto function.
3. no idea with the stock alarm. but if still working why change it? if you have budget to spend then go ahead

18k kms lang at out of warranty na monty mo sir? wow! meaning sa 3yrs nakaka 6k kms ka lang a year? low mileage naman sasakyan mo. mine btw is almost 60k kms na going for 2 years. i'll try to reach 100k kms before 3 yrs or whichever comes first ;)

Will check those oil brands you recommended. Yeah, roughly 6k or so a year lang yung usage ko ng Montero. Mostly QC-Makati and twice a year out of town lang biyahe niya. I use cars for everyday use since its easier to find/fit into parking spaces. As to the turbo timer, going to go around Banawe and canvass. Thanks again

ok i see, pasok yung delo 400 sa type of usage mo. better still, if you can find a much cheaper mineral oil mas ok pa siguro kasi very low mileage talaga usage mo.

Boss ask ko lng about sa delo 400 hnd po ba mineral oil siya at oil change ng 5k kms. Pati po top1 SDO semi sythetic lng po every 5k kms din ba. Pag na match po ba yun sa baldwin oil filter it will last na ba to 10k kms yun? Sensya na newbie question lang.hehe!

read mo na lang specs nila bro. i personally used delo 400 + baldwin bd28 for 10k kms, kaya naman. top1 sdo di ko pa nasubukan pero may mga kilala ako dito sa tsikot at mscp gumagamit niyan at ok naman daw. now, i am using now fully syn royal purple 15w40 and bd28 combo, so far no ok naman.

kung low mileage lang naman sasakyan mo at every 5k kms OCI mo, ok na mga yan kasi less pricey than FS oils. daily ride kasi yung sa akin averaging 2k-2.5k kms a month kaya mas gusto ko FS oils.

No need for turbo timer bro. Not even the VGT. All you need to do is to let it idle for a minute or two before shutting off the engine. And yet even that is unnecessary if you have not had the turbo spinning (gotten past 2k rpm) for the last few minutes of your drive.
