Awesome video mate - 👍 i absolutley love my triton, 2018 model - never had a drama with it, the stock suspension was a little bit stiff - but thats about it,
@@rayclements1891 thanks mate, the suspension upgrade made our triton significantly made it more compliant, one of the best mods to make the triton more premium.
The intake hoses usually go. Only cold side after the intercooler. Best fixed with very tough Western Filters 4 ply rubber hoses (second best is silicon). Cheers
Front parking sensors going off all the time is starndard. Received my Triton GLS durning covid in Victoria and couldn't get my ARB bullbar until a few months later. The parking sensors were troublesome from the start on the stock bar, i bet Mitsubishi know there is a problem but don't want to fix it. Apart from that, great ute and awesome off road.
@@lrzetec we finally cracked it with them, we removed the sensors out then re installed them and haven’t had an issue since, I think the fitters installed them on a bad angle causing them to malfunction. We only had about 1000kms on the car before the bar was installed so didn’t have it long enough for the sensors to play up on the oem bar.
Nice review. I just sold a Colorado (only because Holden don't exist anymore) and decided to buy a Triton as I drove them for work a few years back and was impressed.(2X single cabs). Wife used to work for a local multi brand dealership so we went in to buy a base model Triton dual club. Drove out with a GSR 4x4 with lotsa extras for no extra $$$ (the extras, the baseline price was higher) as it was offered under runout deal pricing that couldn't be ignored relative to the base model price. Only put 200KM on it so far and just getting a feel for it. Steering hunts from centreline and the gearbox hunts a bit as well at times. Need to learn to drive it though as it has a smaller wheel base than competitors which has handling advantages - though also is the cause of the rear overhang debates. It's a truck. The Super Select is unparalleled and combined with diff centre locking makes this ( I believe) a unique vehicle . Anyway just saying I enjoyed your review and am still working out if I'm leaving this thing stock or not.
@@johnobrien6869 that’s awesome, glad you’re enjoying the triton. The steering takes a while to get used to as it’s quite rugged, bumpy through the steering, the new model addresses this with an electronic rack over hydraulic, you’ll just adapt though. I feel that the paddles in the MR are the best thing for it as you can elect what gear it needs to be in, once you learn where the sweet spots are rev and gearbox wise, you’ll enjoy it more. They do actually handle very well for what they are and are the lightest in the segment. If you do mod it make sure they are very conservative mods, we have probably gone a bit far and are still chasing issues with the rear end parabolic leaf set up, but hope to have them resolved in the next month. We will do an updated video eventually of how it’s all going.
Thanks for the update Yan & Stewi - I left the Hilux at home and cycle toured around gorgeous Bruny Island in Summer - good choice with the Triton and its value for money and reliability despite the turbo lag of your gen - thank goodness you didn’t choose a Ford Ranger with tts known poor reliability and design issues - Dmax are known to have body tearing in the engine bay - Chinese brands are cheap for a reason and come with their own in built factory rust (sorry Yu) - I like my Hilux but if budget was a concern I’d happily choose a Triton but not the new one with stop/start ignition and ‘bad driving’ electronic aids issues - I fit accessories myself because of the maverick cowboys in the industry and rely on my avionics/engineering background to do my own wiring including dual battery system - all my heavy canopy items are over the rear axle and I don’t have an extra heavy spare wheel at the back but a spare tyre only and simply use the air compressor - at stage 3 (four year build now) with Sureflo water tank/pump/fully enclosed shower next - I will then get Pedders to add extra comfort rating springs/shocks to support total canopy weight with fuel/water onboard.
@@johnnumbat9782 Thanks so much for your reply! How good is Bruny in summer 👌 Yeah lag on acceleration is annoying but we have adapted to it now, throttle controllers seem to make them more punchy as the issue is with the unresponsive throttle, the new gen has two modes now, eco/ normal and makes a world of difference. We are starting to realise not going the tamer was a wise decision they have so many issues already. On paper they look incredible it’s a bit of a shame. We agree if you are handy on the tools or exceptionally qualified in your case it’s better to do all the mods yourself as others don’t seem to care much. We are looking to install a water tank for a built in shower as well, was legit planning it all last night, we will post up a video ones the car is fully tour ready. We have gone through multiple set ups with suspension so if you need any tips reach out, just weigh your car and then choose your suspension accordingly. We went with terrain tamer and they were awesome to deal with they didn’t give up until the set up was right.
@@jamesaustralian9829 yes you’re absolutely correct James and this is my second one because I changed to an automatic - yes you pay the ‘Toyota tax’ but other than the DPF workaround this car has been fantastic with conventional low tech handbrake and analogue dials, dash cup holders and actual knobs on the infotainment system - most of the other makes use buttons etc which can be dangerously distracting when your not looking at the road ahead.
@@yan_stewi_travels yes guys the unfortunate thing with marketing is the money spent on fancy commercials with ‘model’ ‘home and away’ looking drivers suggesting that particular car is a good choice until you own one - for example Ford Ranger, Jeep or Rsnge Rover/Land Rover because they might have nice aesthetics but people will suffer financially for what they chose - your rig does look good but is actually functional and gets you there - I now live on the mainland but have been visiting over a dozen Tassie family members for forty years with two of them nurses who work very hard - also having a mechanical/financial background Stewi gives you a better informed path for decision making than most and not easily conned - enjoy your hot water showers - I chose the industry proven Sureflo pump (not cheap and nasty imitator Seaflo) with a backup Sureflo pressurised accumulator tank which means you’re not always turning on the pump for short fills like a cup’s worth - also chose an under tray 50l Dunn & Watson plastic tank but your setup may be inside the canopy if your trundle tray is already in place.
@@johnnumbat9782 thanks so much John, I agree with the marketing and the specs of the ranger, funny enough the rangers v6 is inherited from the land rovers and has a tendency to snap cranks as well as many other issues. That’s epic advice about the water tank, 50 L would be the sweet spot we still have enough gvm for that to. I’ll look in to them and take your recommendations in to consideration. Can’t wait to start working on the water tank as it’s one of the final things to do to the ute. As well as an upgrade to 300ah and an inverter for coffees of a morning otherwise we will go broke buying them while traveling around Aus haha!
Great video on the Triton. I don't understand why this remains such an underrated vehicle despite being as reliable as a Hilux. Thanks for the detailed review, with love all the way from Namibia.
@jasonfields2793 agreed. In Australia though, even with high mileage (over 300,000 kilometres in some cases) Mitsubishi has replaced failed 2.5's with new motors. They have backed their product better than any other manufacturer I have seen.
The MR triton, had one as a work car for ages. Hated it. -The phone connectivity was constantly hit and miss. -The "turbo" seemed to only be there as an asthetic in the engine bay, offering absolutely no detectable difference to its lawnmower engines power output. -The lawnmower engine itself, sure it made the ute go from a to b, but on a higheay, overtaking a road train often involved redlining the bitch and holding it flat strap to get it anywhere near 120 to go round safely. Id hate to see how gutless they are loaded up and or towing a heavy load. -The AC, if you parked in the sun for an hour or more on a hot day, youd start the motor and have the ac going flat out at 18c, and wait outside the vehicle having smoke, then get in, and it still wouldnt cool down. I found that even when you open the rear roof vents and put the rear fan on maximum while the ac was on, it took an awfully long time for any cool air to come through. -The wheel, again parked in the sun for an hour or more, youd need to put a towel over the steering wheel if you wanted to touch it when you got in -the windscreen sensors malfunction in the heat, take three corrigated roads and say goodbye to the front and rear park sensors. -The headlights, standard beam headlights left much to be desired, i found my 25 year old lowered falcon gave better low beam light than the MR. -The fact i couldn't tell my workplace to keep the bucket of crap and just use my 25 year old falcon instead. -The money youd spend buying one and "making it decent" is on par with buying a really good secondhand well built and kept rig like a older hilux or cruiser, which offer that awesome toyota reliability.
@@jamesaustralian9829 cheers for the reply, we have a mate that has a work car he hates and it’s not good for the sanity, it becomes more of a passion to hate the car or ute. Can I ask what series you had? We agree it’s not the most powerful ute getting around but felt it was pretty punchy stock and new, with our set up now we probably won’t be overtaking much anytime soon haha. Agreed Headunit in them is rubbish we recently upgraded and feel it’s the first thing you should do for sanity. Where was you working to have so many issues with heat, we are yet to experience these issues as live in Tassie and have only really been as far as SA we haven’t experienced extreme heat as yet, but will likely experience this when in the top end next year. Our reality was the triton was the best priced, cost us a fraction of the price to set up, we aren’t as stressed if we scratch it or have damage etc due to the costs vs a 300/ y62 set up, we can use it as the work ute instead of being obsessed and worrying about damage etc all the time. For now it’s fit for our purpose and we haven’t experienced a lot of the issues you found with the work ute,but who knows in time we might live to hate it to time will tell.
TJM put a bar on my MR , they damaged front sensor's, and the car used to go into FCM and stop , (at the worst places like on comming traffic) TJM payed for new sensors whilst i had mitsubishi fot them. was fine after that... but i would get them checked as i nearly got T boned 3 times as car used to think a wall was in front due to damged sensors
Very lucky that you wasn’t hurt, a lot of this safety tech is more of a hinderance than anything. I pulled them out and have adjusted them instead of dealing with Ironman, haven’t had an issue for a month now.
I went with the Bi Turbo Ranger. The Bi has been flawless and is proving more reliable than the V6. Also the most powerful 4 cylinder 4x4 on the market.
Yeah as we mentioned in the video the v6 was a jump in the unknown with reliability looks like it’s paying dividends atm with a few issues being reported, bi turbo 4 pot would be a good thing with the 10 speed, tbh we didn’t even consider them 🙄
Heya - awesome video! The wheel tyre combo is almost exactly what I'd been looking at for my GLS - had you fitted these before the lift and bullbar? If so any rubbing? Cheers :D
Thanks so much, no scrubbing now we have lifted but when it was stock it was constantly rubbing against the front mud flaps haha, we have had them removed ever since. We also flex a bit on the rear and rub inside the inner Ali guard as we need extended bump stops at the rear.
Just the overhang of the rear axle to tow ball if youre towing a van causes swaying issues. Seen it too many times sitting behind them. Often too big of a van for dual cabs imo. I tow 2.8T van with a ford ranger. Anything more id want a bigger tow vehicle.
@@yan_stewi_travels nah Weight dist hitches are a bandaid fix. Better off setting up the suspension for towing properly the first time and getting your towball mass and caravan blanced wieght wise correctly. When you get your van go tow at 100, if all good and has no sway. Id own a triton if i didnt tow imo.
@@Mosesk1988 yeah okay good advice, thanks. The rangers are definitely better for towing as just bigger and more engine power where you need it, we will make sure to have it all weighed, we will set it all up and reveal how it all tows in the caravan reveal in a couple months time 💪
I got the same bullbar and having the same issues with the park sensors! Mitsubishi said to me it’s a faulty sensor and they’ll cover it under warranty
I did have it written somewhere, but can’t locate it atm sorry, just check the MR triton brochure: www.mitsubishi-motors.com.au/content/dam/mmal/pdfs/vehicle-brochures/23MY%20Triton%20Brochure.pdf
The car is very capable and reliable for the price you paid . But dont over hang your canopy or over load stuff too far back from your rear wheels. Or else .
Yeah for sure we have everything inside the canopy over the rear wheels as much as possible, also we have made it all as lightweight as possible, check our canopy video if you have time best way to show what we mean 👌
@@wayno8867 correct, they are to assessed every 30,000 kms. From experience our previous Pajero sport was done at 60,000 kms we didn’t have the history of if it was carried out at 30k, they were out quite considerably. Then on the other hand we had an MQ triton was perfect at 120k some need the adjustment some don’t.
I would not tuch a ranger with a 10 foot pole as I know someone that had one and not even 6 months after getting it new it blew up due to the turbo hoses as Ford can not work them out. About 3 months ago work got 3 for work cars and one is already leaking oil so they contacted Ford and Ford said it will be ok and just keep topping it up even tho it's brand new. I have the mr trion and yes there is issue but it's noting serious like leaking oil.
