Also agree with the torque converter being possible and needing a flush helps. Some also do the filter, but not always necessary. If I can find the video or thread with instructions, I'll post here. You will be draining ~2qts at a time from the cooler line and refilling through the dipstick...

I do not know of any mechanical backup to the seat recline. You may be able to check voltage at the pins. Grab an FSM from my signature and it should have a detailed guide for you.

There are still some active members here, but a lot are using FB. Luso Overland used to have a forum on his website. If I can't find information here, I'm usually checking the Pajero forums out of Australia.

This doesn't mean we will definitely get a new Montero, but it does mean that Mitsubishi doesn't want anyone else building one. Hopefully a Triton based truck may return to US shores, but just as likely to get a large crossover too...

If it only happens or is noticeable on smooth pavement, I'd say it is likely the tires. Not imbalanced, but their normal road noise. The Gen 3 monocoque design tends to amplify road and tire noise more than other similar vehicles. It is more rigid than body on frame or unibody so it transmits...

I can also second the slightly larger tires. I put 265/70r-17 on my 2005 LTD. Toyo Open Country are my preferred AT. They have very good tread life, but do make more noise in the Gen 3 cabin. Nothing horrible, but a slight drone on some freshly paved roads. I took mine everywhere that a Jeep...

The Shade-tree mechanic method for ABS bleed is to go down a long, straight dirt road and slam the brakes. That activates the ABS enough to cycle the valves and help purge the air. Make sure you have plenty of road and no traffic if you attempt this.

I swear I've seen that button before. Someone else on the forum had it, might have been the same rig. It is not OEM for anything. You can check FSM to confirm that. You'll have to trace the wire to see where it leads. I vaguely recall it being used for a power antenna in the past. Flip the...

Hey all. The Mitsubishi Diaqueen, KIA, and Hyundai SP-III fluids are all supposed to have the same specification. I have used all 3 in my Gen 3 when changing fluid. IIRC it takes about 10 quarts to fully flush/fill using the cooler line method in a driveway. I bought the fluid in cases from...

Found this FSM for the Lexus GX460. It is ~550MB and runs as HTML application. https://forum.ih8mud.com/threads/gx-460-manuals.1129713/

For more troubleshooting, put the car into 4H and see if you get the same vibration. This should move some of the output load to the front axle. Also for reference: 2Hi - Standard RWD 4Hi - AWD with open center diff 4HLc - 4WD Hi with locked center diff 4LLc - 4WD Lo with locked center diff

This is possible, but it would be a noticeable noise from the front axle when it engages. There used to be a good diagnosis page, but it seems to have a broken/404 error now. If you haven't already, grab an FSM from the link in my signature. There should be a diagnosis section for the C-diff...

Are the wheels and tires balanced?

I was about to suggest checking the fluid or flushing the transmission. They get a similar feeling to driving down a rumble strip. My 01 did it going uphill around 40-45mph. The increase in pitch with speed makes me think diff gears, though. Hopefully you find something out.

Good deal. I also replaced some of the vacuum lines when I did mine. Glad it was a simple fix.

It's a very unique look. Another one was posted here in 2018. Not sure who picked it up.

Agree with the sprinter van. Daimler, RAM, and Ford have USA options. AWD and 4WD versions are in the lineups.

You can probably find information in the Australian Pajero forums. They will have lots of experience with the diesel engines.

If those are behind the rear passenger tire, then it is the rear AC system. The Gen 3 has a separate blower fan, AC unit, and heater core in the rear that can run independent of the front AC system. There are coolant lines to get warm liquid to this heater core. Grab an FSM from my signature...
