Living With A Mitsubishi Pajero

Mystery Switch Solved
Mystery Switch Solved...
Bearing in mind I’ve had my Pajero for just over six months now, I’ve finally solved the mystery of what a certain switch does. No, it’s not a standard factory-fitted switch that operates one of the many gadgets Mitsubishi fitted, but a little plastic toggle switch that someone fitted...
Heated Fuel Filter Head
Heated Fuel Filter Head...
After listening to various threads of discussion over on the POCUK forums it now seems that my Pajero has a heated fuel filter head unit rather than the standard non-heated version. I had wondered about my filter head when I changed the filter as neither the Haynes or Russek manuals had any reference...
Japanese Bluemoon
Japanese Bluemoon...
“hirorinn324″ contacted me from Japan and pointed me to his website that has some great images of his Bluemoon Pajero. Unfortunately my Japanese isn’t too good, so we struggled to communicate as his English wasn’t too good either. This is what he did say to me: Nice to meet you. I’m...
Cold Starting
Cold Starting...
As the mornings get colder I’ve noticed the Pajero isn’t enjoying getting going so much. This has previously just been a problem with getting away from a standing start. The first couple of yards from where I park is a very slight incline and it’s coughed a little and lacked power until...
Pajero Insurance
Pajero Insurance...
I’ve had several emails from people asking me who I got Pajero insurance from. Well, there’s a quick and easy answer obviously but I thought it would be good to discuss the options and the peculiar nature of insuring a Pajero. So what do you do when you’re first considering buying a...
Pajero Pitman Arm Recall
Pajero Pitman Arm Recall...
Since I’ve had the Pajero I’ve known that there was a manufacturer recall on Pajeros/Shoguns/Monteros for the replacement of the Pitman arm. Briefly, Mitsubishi realised at some point that this model had a defect with its Pitman arm that could lead to steering failure. Obviously they had...
Pajero Fuel Filter Change
Pajero Fuel Filter Change...
This is one part of the servicing I’ve been putting off for a while. It just looked a little complicated to me and when you start playing about with fuel lines and things it worries a relative newbie with the spanners. Anyway, it had to be done and I was determined to do it myself, so here’s...
Removing the Pajero Intercooler
Removing the Pajero Intercooler...
Removing the intercooler from the Pajero is the first step in many jobs under the bonnet as it takes up so much room. As such I thought it would be good to post a write-up about how to perform this task on its own. This might look tricky to a novice (it did to me) but it’s really very easy and...
Wheel Rotation
Wheel Rotation...
Not the most interesting of posts this, but I want to build up a full picture of my servicing. So anyway, I rotated the wheels today in the sense of moving their positions on the car, rather than just spinning them around! This should increase the amount of wear I get out of them as a full set as they...
She Got Mucky
She Got Mucky...
Went on my first ever off-roading day on Sunday (August 5th). It was arranged by Andy (ukrabbiter) through the POCUK forums and took place at Briercliffe quarry near Burnley. Just the four of us involved: Andy, Gareth (LFM), Dennis (denjo) and of course me. I’d known about it for a few weeks and...
