Yes i did. the mechanic sid that they also notice one from the other but the owner did not notice. after fixing that unit, ako din daw. pinababalik sa akin dahil no time na when i went there.

As for the engine noise, some deadening material and muffler *might* fix that.

for the #1, #2 & #3, mukhang sira yung sasakyan mo bro. Baka lemon unit. Papalitan mo sa Mitsu habang maaga. Tell them the Thai workers might be f*cking up the products because of the turmoil and social discontent. Same thing American workers do with American cars.

Good thing, di sya biglang tumitirik.
Ye i will ask for replacement.

ONE MORE PROBLEM, when i shift from Park to drive of Rear, the entire vehicle shakes na parang gustong tumakbo na. Not smooth at all. The technician says normal naman sa ibang unit na try niya. I dont know if true.

After my first 1000km oil change, all these symptoms went away. Kailangan lang proper break in period like all diesel engines.
I hope so man. this is my first diesel car. i am not comfortable with it.

should we just go to the casa and say we want to exchange the unit? or is there a better way of doing it so the casa will permit the exchange.
Who did some exchange before?

Thanks to all the replies.

i will keep you updated on the problem.
