    ECU update

    Not having had the Pajero serviced at a Mitsubishi dealer for a while now (1 year on Sat), was wondering if it's worth taking in to see if there are any ECU updates??

    I spoke to a dealer today while getting some filters and they said it would take about an hour and "smoke the place out" as they also do a DPF burn. Does this sound right and is it worth getting done??? I have it booked in for tomorrow so any suggestions would be appreciated.

    If you give a dealer the vin number he can tell you if there has been a flash upgrade since your last visit.

      Yep sounds right - and yep was worth it from my perspective - made a difference. Got the next ECU flash and a "re-learn" of the injectors - whatever that means.

        Gary RE-LEARN of the injectors is reseting the injector system to latest factory settings so the fuel trim is correct and the vehicle is not running rich or lean.

            For info, all went well re the ECU update. Dropped it off at 0900 at Southland Mitsubishi and collected it about 1130. There was an update for it but not sure what it involved. Total cost was $55 so pretty happy.

            For info, while I was there I asked about the 105,000 km service which will be due in about 7,000 km. Cost will be about $450 but will supply my own oil (Penrite Enviro + 5W40). Seems that there are 2 x 15,000 km services which cost about $450 then a major service which is around the $1,200 mark.

            With a planned oil change over the weekend (Penrite and Mitsi filter) and still 2 weeks holidays left, a bit of 4WD'ing is in order.
