Montero Sport GLX 2.5 Non-VGT Owners

**jyllana24** · December 23rd, 2014 02:31 AM

Hi,

I am planning to buy Montero once we get there in the Philippines, but I am also thinking if this is far better than Toyota Fortuner. Can you please let me know which one is better from your experience? I tried doing my due diligence in reviewing both cars and yet I am not satisfied from what I have seen.

Your input is highly appreciate. BIG Thanks.

Hinde ka po magsisisi sa montero. Better yet antayin mo ung 2015 model. Lapit na ata marelease. . .

1000KMS ang break in period.

Birit agad yung speed as possible, (caution with safety), kung hanggang saan yung kaya nyo na speed itakbo, ok lang, basta iwasan na i-redline yung RPM (kung MT)
and since break in period, bago gamitin yung sasakyan, painitin nyo po muna yung makina at least 15 mins (a/c off), and much better kung patience enough, 30 mins para umabot dun sa normal engine temp. pag nasa normal temp na saka buksan ang a/c, pwede na agad itakbo ng high speed, (para hindi pwersado yung makina dahil mahigpit pa yung mga rubber seals dun sa internals ng engine at makapag-circulate yung engine oil sa piston) at iwas usok na rin (black smoke) kasi, ma offset na rin naman yung carbon deposit during idling period pag nakatakbo na.

break in period

Thanks sa advice sir playplugg mejo hrap kc ako mg maintain sa speed na 50 lng. May ng advice sa akin wag daw mna ibirit ng 50. Bti nlng pde pla ung advice mo sir.

Sir MS-GLX

Yung sa amin, 9 months na, at nasa 510 KMS pa lang ang takbo (dahil bihira gamitin at underused) napatakbo ko na po ng 140KPH,

wala naman problem, saka believe it or not, during the release ng sasakyan namin galing casa, rev ko ng 4K RPM yung montero, for engine test bago i-release. (kung merong black smoke) and pinatakbo ko agad ng 110KPH,

During break in, laruin nyo lang yung speed, wag mag maintain ng speed,

Bago i-turn off yung engine, idle muna kayo at least 5-10mins for turbo cool down. lalo kung galing high-speed/heavy load.

cabin filter, OCC (oil catch can), EGR blank, PM nyo si Sir zixx.

Hi mga sir kakalabas ko lng po ng MS ko... Happy and enjoy... Direct blessing sa antipolo... Un nga lang namamatayan ako lalo na sa malapit na sa simbahan... Tama ngang mhirap itiming ang clutch.. Pero 1-2days pa kaya na matimpla ang timing.. Ask ko lang po normal po ba ung andar ng MS pag idle and naka-on ung AC natin eh parang humihina ung andar tapos mamaya,maya lalakas ung andar. Normal po ba yun... TIA

Normal lang 😊

**krs.spoon** · December 23rd, 2014 10:05 PM

Normal lang yan...ang rpm is 900 at most...then kapag nag engage ung magnetic clutch ng compressor ng A/C.. Aakyat ng around 1100 to 1200rpm...intermittent yan or cyclic😁
