Thanks, Herman! Will the common rail engine work with the gearbox of my Gen3??

It will work with your gearbox, I think, but the problem is the computer ECU and wiring harnass will have to be redone as well. Virtually impossible/Very Expensive. I am sure it is doable but I have not found evidence of one done. Maybe you can be the first?superairborne wrote:Herman 6609 wrote:On OLX someone had a 3.2 for 25 and it's the common rail if you are intrest

Get a quote from Mitspro(Centurion) or Go-Power(Springs) to have engine rebuild or phone Partshunt and hear if they have a second hand unit, if they do it will most probably not have any warantee and mileage will be high.
I hope this is not your daily transport because it is gonna be out of commision for a LONG time(6 months I would say).

Is your Pajero chipped or been "worked" on to boost performance?
There is hardly any chance of the standard engine going on such looooow mileage.
Also, be VERY careful of going the rebuild route. Make sure you get at least a one year guarantee with a reputable company. My mechanic offered a guarantee, but the work under guarantee job took 6 months!
Either get a complete unit from Japan Motors or go the Lexus 4.2 route!

My Pajero's engine is stock standard. The only non-Mitsubishi thing on the engine is a K&N air filter element which I fitted 20,000km ago, and it is removed and replaced with the stock unit whenever I go off the tar.Lock wrote:Is your Pajero chipped or been "worked" on to boost performance?

I will probably get a new engine from Japan at cost of R105,000!

Are such a thing even available? I heard that one can get a complete sub-assembly from Mitsu for around R65000 which excludes the head. Not sure if this is true though.superairborne wrote:My Pajero's engine is stock standard.

The stealers don't sell complete engines. I'm bringuit in directly from Japan through a contact.CATS wrote:Are such a thing even available?

The stealers charge R110,000 for a diesel pump, so imagine what they would charge for a complete engine if they did sell it.

Did you get your complete replacement engine in the end? I am still struggling with the non satisfactory results on mine after the rebuild, so are weighing up options.
