I would also be interested in that owners manual if someone has it handy.

Hi

I have actually managed to obtain a loan manual for Gen2.5 Paj. It is being copied. The challenged would be to scan it considering the number of pages? Maybe we should scan particular sections that people require which is more practical? I am open to suggestions unless someone has the time to scan all the pages. Volunteers are welcome

I was cleaning around the rear most seats and discovered on the right hand side what looks like a radiator in a plastic housing. What is it and its function?
Answer 1.
This is the intake for the rear aircon unit.

Yep. DIscovered it when I removed the cover to remove dust

Question 4.
Is it normal to have to apply so much force to "blow" the horn and is it normal that the contact is in the middle of steering wheel only?
Answer 4.
You can take the steering wheel cover off and adjust the horn sensitivity by bending the contacts

Very interesting little project. Found the single contact to be almost broken and rather "limp". I broke it off and reinforced the contact so that the horn now easily work over a bigger area. Thanks again Simon

Question 5.
Could we have perhaps in MS Excel, having the service intervals especially after 100,000Kms, including what is included for Service A, B and C? Could we also have recommendations/Tips what experience has taught what should be replaced/done?

Answer 5.
The service intervals don't change after 100000km. Always ABACABAC, service every 10000km for petrol, with cambelt every 100000km. I can scan my owners manaual at some stage for the checklist

I found the frequency in my service manual but it does not give an explanation what an A, B or C service entails nor were MItsubishi in Tygervalley of any help and she was guessing her way through it. Maybe our forum could give some help. I attach the PDF sheet (because the forum does not allow Ms Excel). What is also interesting is that our service book stops at 180,000km. So does it mean that Mitsubishi don't see value in continuing when you are doing kms in excess? I am actually busy with an MS Word layout based on their format to past into the manual for continuity

Must be a Gen 2 or petrol thing. My DiD's book goes to 400k

. Seriously, though, I think it is just the way Samcor did things. They distributed and assembled the Gen 2s locally.

I have scanned service schedules, but have not had success attaching them. Perhaps I must try again or mail them to SimonB...

Hi Gerrit

I have designed a layout which just need to minor adjustments and I will load it up. Unfortunately it will have to be PDF cause y'day it refused to upload an Ms Excel file. The service book layout is on MS Word though.

Try again in excel or word... as long as it's not too big. If you still have hassles, email it to me an I'll make it available in the documents archive

Ok. I will try later as a test case

Thanks for the service interval PDF. If you can send the papers to Botswana, I have a mean copier that scans and converts to PDF at about 40 pages per minute. Conversion from XLS to PDF I can also do.

Eureka!

I have finally succeeded in uploading those pdfs (using Google Chrome this time). I have created a sticky topic in the reference library. To go there, click HERE.

Hi All, I am back. I attach my attempt to extend the service record keeping from 200,000km to 550,000km. (not to sure it the Paj is gonna go beyond?)

When you print it on A4, set the print properties to "Fit on 1 page"
