20 Most Recent 1999 Mitsubishi Montero - Page 6 Questions & Answers

Radio code is specific for each and every car. It is specific like anti theft code.

So yu can get it by providing your VIN# and registration details in authorised dealership.Nobody else can provide you. If anybody can provide you that , then there is no meaning of security for your car.

I would change what manufacturers call the nutral safty switch is mounted on the transmision which controls gear location for the computor of the vehicle.

If your unable to open the rear door you should just be able to remove the inner door liner from inside the truck, climb over the back seats. Once the inner door panel is removed (remove all hardware, handles and such) the panel should pull off. To do so grab the pavel at the outter edge and pull away. As you pull away feel for where the fasteners are and concentrate your force of pulling there, pop out each one, one at a time. After removing remove plastic film and look into the inner door, it is there you should find your problem.

I hope this may have assisted you,

When is the last time you replace the glow plugs? That could be your problem. Also the fuel injector pump should be checked for pressure. Either of the two can be a problem. It is costly to rebuild the fuel injector pump but I find that the motors runs like new if the pump is weak then rebuilt.

if you have a distributor ignition,then the rotor button is bad. if its a distributorless ignition,then the coil packs are bad.

Checked may manual for my 1990 Montero, got the following:

2.7 Liter V6 trailer max # Max tongue
w/trailer brake: 2000# 200#
w/out brake: 1000# 100#

3.0 V6
w/trailer brake 4000# 250#
w/out brake 1500# 150#


Gross weight
combined 8850 or 9291 (four door model)

In my experience (being an auto tranny in mine) I use my OD switch to let the engine run out a bit further in RPM or on slight grades to keep OD from shifting in and out.

Please let me know if this assited,
Tom

you'll have to have your vin # as well as the radio serial and part # handy call 1888mitsu2008 and they will help you with your code free of charge

not unless it was very loose it would have to spray out of the valve cover and that doesn't happen, usually your valve cover might run down and get on your exhaust.

The best advice I can give you, is first of all do not take the car to another shop. I believe this could void
at least part of your warranty. If I'm reading this right,
when you take it to the dealer it won't act up or show
any diagnostic codes. One thing you can do is to buy
your own OBDII scanner, they cost about $75.00 but
it won't be a one time use, they work on any car from
1996 into the forseable future. Make sure you get one
that stores codes. Leave it pluged in while you drive,
the plug should be under the dash by the steering
colum. Now when it acts up the OBD will record the
trouble codes, and you will have evidence when you
go to honda. In the meantime I would call customer
service, at honda central command and tell them, what has been going on. Tell them what you! are doing to help find the problem,and what are they
going to do to solve this problem. Because the car
is still under warranty, and is as much their problem
as yours. Next stop consumer affairs.
Hope this helps. Good luck.

Your air bag needs to be serviced.

Go to a garage then

Most montero*s have 3 ids,One is located right side of engine as looking under bonnet,another on underside of bonnet,another under o/s rear wheel arch which if still there confirms vin number.

my 1999 pajero to smokey what should i do

if your vehicle has manual locking front hubs then you need to turn them to lock first. then it's best to have the car on but not moving and perhaps in neutral gear put in the clutch and using the transfer lever select either low or high range. some vehicles need to go in reverse first before the transfer gears engage; that is usually hiluxes.Don't forget to do this procedure in reverse when returning to normal road driving as it is not good for the car to be driving on the road in 4x4

you will probably have to take it back to mitsubishi to reset the code on the immobiliser ecu
