So, with 365,xxx KMs on Mr Bishi, it seems as if the transmission has decided to act up. It’s not engaging in either 1st or reverse. A transmission whisperer has suspicions that there could be a forward seal causing the problem. Apparently it would be a big job to fix. Luckily I have another...

So, with 365,xxx KMs on Mr Bishi, it seems as if the transmission has decided to act up. It’s not engaging in either 1st or reverse. Injave to rev it up then it clunks into gear. Fluid levels are good. A transmission whisperer I know has suspicions that there could be a forward seal issue...

Hello All, My 3rd Gen Limited (2003) has a clunk in the driveline somewhere. I know it’s not the diff (diff has been swapped due to axle popping out). The drive shaft seems to have some play in it, and the noise is waaaay less (but still very present) in 4wd. Does anyone have tips for...

Just thought I’d share a pic of this little beauty I saw a couple weeks back. I had a brief in-traffic chat with the owner. It’s a JDM import (obviously!).

Hello All, So... I need to do something about my rear suspension. Is says and the wheels have an amazing amount of camber especially when towing. I’m pretty sure this is why I have pulled the axels out of two diffs. So my question is this. OME make a rear spring (2910) that is only a .5”...

Hello All, I have a (couple!) ‘03 Montero Limited. This one is a parts machine (Partsubishi is her name). I can not for the life of me find the key. And of course, I need to move it. Does anyone know how to shift one of these into neutral without a key? Also, steering would be cool too...

Hello Gents, I need a bit of a hand. I need an axel retaining clip (in the diff, holds the axel output shaft in) for an '03 Montero Limited. I have the part # at home, I forgot it this AM! They are discontinued from Mits, but I'm thinking that I may not be the first guy ever in this...

Hello gents, I have narrowed the noise from my Montero down to a rear diff (confirmed by my mechanic). I have to ask, how do I know if my truck has an LSD or not? I had the local Mits dealer run my VIN. They can't tell me (they did confirm that it does have a diff;) ). I can find a tag on...

Hello all, So I just bought an '03 Montero limited. I've had it for a couple days, and noticed a few things. Wondering if I could pick your collective brain for ideas of where to start. 1, there is a howling noise @ 60kmph. It's louder on deceleration then acceleration. But at most speeds...

Hello all, I am new to this forum, and would like to pick your collective brain. I am looking at a couple Montero's. Same seller. They are both in good shape, but have their own issues. 1st one is an '03 limited, 220,000km. It's in great shape, little to no rust. It needs valve cover gaskets...
