Pajero Owners Club of South Africa

Snap! Also just booked my Gen4 in for 150,000 service on Thursday

No major hassles, at 99,968 km had the "Suction Control Valve" from the common rail supply pump replaced (haven't a clue what it is or what it does ) - under warranty but would have cost R2,800 if not - service advisor was quite impressed that I squeezed into warranty by 32km

Cheers

Thursday as in today or next week, I think I booked mine for next Tuesday, but will be hitting the 150 Km mark on Saturday, all things being equal

As in Thursday yesterday

R3K including low beam globe - not too bad methinks?

Now on 150300 km - officially part of the High Mileage Club (now for the Mile High Club )

Cheers

Tom,

Snap, Im on 150300 too;) More to come this weekend.

I am shocked that you paid R3k... I paid R4.5k
I'm not happy with that and am busy doing my maths regarding getting a new car with a maintenance plan......

Don't feel bad - mine was less BECAUSE THEY DIDN'T HAVE SPARES

As a matter of interest, what were your labour units/charge and how much for the air filter (that's what they didn't have)?

It's a week now and still no phone call to say "air filters in stock".....

Cheers
Tom

Model: 2001 3.2 Did Manual SWB.
Mileage: 211,000km
Work done: Nothing that I know of prior to buying the vehicle at 183,000km (it had never really been off-road). Original front shock broke at 190,000km - fitted high lift suspension kit. Brake accululator replaced around same time free of charge by Mitsubishi (factory recall). On 2 isolated occasions during the past 3 years, could not engage gears (seems like problem with brake fluid line to gearbox), but this came right by itself within a short time and hasn't re-occured during the past year. Original motor still going strong, so no worries thus far. Oh yes - hooter not working when I bought the vehicle. Fitted separate button on lower part of dash to operate hooter.

What model / year is your Pajero? 1998 2.8 SWB GLX
How much mileage had your Pajero done? 187000 km
Is it the original motor? Yes
Any major work? Not that I know of, bought it on 183000km and still running good.
