Any recommendations on where can we have the timing belt replaced at the least cost? Thanks.

^Up. Im nearing 60K already.
At what km reading are you now sir?

The manual recommends to change it between 60k to 80k. Kung ok pa siya once magpa change oil ako, baka sa 70K nalang ako magpalit.

Mukang marami rin atang tatangalin kasi medyo masikip yung engine space.

75k kms and running. The total labor/parts quote from Mitsu Diamond QA is around 24k, 2-3 days work. Mitsu Balintawak quotes 20+k with also 2-3 days work.

Sobra naman. Magkano lang naman belt.
20K for timing belt replacement? pass haha.

How about on your suking gas station sir? Here on our place, may gas station dito na maraming nagpapagawa e.
Kanina lang nagpagas ako dun, roughly nasa 20 cars nagpapagawa. Hindi na kasya sa service bay.
Much better din kung sa acredited mitsu store din bumili instead sa casa.

Paging sir Zix...

actually mga sirs hindi lang yun belt ang papalitan. ang pricey is yun mga bearings. pati oil seals need palitan since open na din nman. mga ilang parts din yun pero medyo may kamahalan talaga yun 24k...

Bearings ng pulley sir papalitan din nila?
Diba kapag nag belt replacement, sabay din pinapalitan yung tensioner?

Or baka yung 24k is package na, including belt replacement, tensioner, change oil, oil filter, tune up, etc. Yung regular maintenance plus the belts

Mag inquire kayo sa El Dorado kung magkano mga parts na papalitan. Para malaman niyo kung tinataga kayo o hindi.

Mga Sirs,

I need your expert thoughts. I just read the 2 Service Booklets that came with our Montys. The Thailand Service Booklet (Blue) recommends timing belt replacement every 80,000-100,000 kms. (nakagisnan natin na standard). The Philippine Service Booklet (Green) naman recommends replacement by 60,000-80,000 kms. Sino sa kanila nagsasabi ng totoo? Galing Thailand lahat ng Montero sa Pinas. Gusto lang bang "kumita" ng Mitsubishi Phils?

Not on a mitsu but they are an suv specialist shop so I had dr. G in q.c. Do the tbelt change on my old toyota. Labor was a little under 6k. Replaced the belt, water pump, thermostat, tensioner, fanbelts, all fluids and filters.

I just bought my own parts as per shop advice. Mostly original except for the tensioner bearing which was koyo (original was also koyo) and the water pump with aisin (they also make the orig water pump).
