Pajero Owners Club of South Africa

Hi All

I am busy looking at getting either a GLS or GLX LWB Pajero.
I looked at a 2009 GLS with just below 100k km's on clock, I also got the details or every service from Mit Motors east rand and was shocked to see every service was in excess of R4000 every 10,000k's. I average 4000k's a month and will use the vehicle as a daily commute, stuck in N12 traffic.
Whats the service cost once expired from maintenance plan and how much can one do yourself, browsing the forum the service parts doesnt appear to be too expensive.
Would you self service or go to a reputable guy to have it done?
What about the FSH if you do it yourself?
Any advise please

Your 2009 GLS will have a 5 year/100000kms service plan. Do not touch anything within this period your Gaurantee at stake.Worry about the cost when the service plan expires.
Pajero greetings.

And beyond 100k km's?
I'm still waiting for them to give me pricing on extended maintenance plan

Check the service schedule for what you need, when.

Phone your local Mitsu agent and get prices for:

• oil filter
• air filter
• sump washer
• fuel filter

(genuine Mitsu service items are usually cheaper than pirate parts)

10l (yes, that's how much you need) Caltex Delo400 15W40 oil will cost you ± R 400 for the service.

That's the beauty of servicing a diesel engine - few things to do, easy to do!
