2012 Montero Sport - sometimes with a Loud "Thug" Sound after Engine Starts

[peterstarr]

Share lang po mga sir. I have 2012 GLS-V A/T. I noticed for the past 2 months na minsan (about 30% of the time), may loud "Thug" sound pag nag-start ako ng engine. Wala syang pattern kung kelan mangyayari. Minsan, sa umaga. Minsan naman, mga 1 hour pa lang nakapark yung Montero, pag-start ko, merong tunog, so, pinacheck ko nung nagpa Periodic Maintenance ako sa Diamond VV. Thanks to their quality work, nakita nila na kailangang palitan yung isang engine support. Kaya ginawan nila ng Quality Report at nag-order na ng replacement. Replacement is free.

Kaya sa mga nakakaramdam ng ganitong problem, ipakita nyo agad sa casa.

Same issue here for about a year na with my 2012 GLS-V. Went there at DMVV yesterday to have my RH engine support replaced thru warranty. So far wala na yung "thug" sound kada start ng makina.

If I remember it right (through the price indicated in the warranty form), that part was more or less P 1,100.
