2008 Mitsubishi Pajero/Shogun (BK/NS, NT, NW, NX) Review - The Final Pajero

[@OffTheBeatenTrackSA]

as a pajero owner, I must say your Pajero reviews are Brilliant !!!

[@KyleLiongCars]

Thank you so much :)

[@watching88football]

Hello I'm interested in buying this pajero it's diesel 3.2 with 160000 km on the ODO. Can you tell me more about the reliability?

[@rednightmareproductions]

You are the only car reviewer that i actually enjoy with Doug Demuro, please keep uploading this kind of content

[@KyleLiongCars]

Thanks! I will haha

[@danieljaquez8600]

I'm about to buy a 2009 here in Mexico, your review is really nice and detailed, couldn't find a better one on YT.

[@KyleLiongCars]

Thanks! Hope it helps with your purchase

[@christopherthomas3967]

Whats the mileage on it..thinking of buying a 2008

[@pedroborda9040]

I had a 2 door 3.8 a few years ago in Dubai. The car is trash off the box, but as soon as you remove the fuses for traction control, stability control and abs (which normally are far too intrusive), it transforms into a BEAST! It'll dune bash all day long and it's INDESTRUCTIBLE! Seriously, I tried to break it but I couldn't.

[@KyleLiongCars]

Man I wish I could go there to try out the dunes. Been seeing so much LCs take on dunes and Arabs doing wheelies hahaha! Maybe in the future

[@pedroborda9040]

@@KyleLiongCars it's a great time, always! Even if you get stuck, it's a good day. And those turbo patrols are insane!

[@KyleLiongCars]

Some day hehe

[@mattsee45]

Few points coming from a BK owner: We did sell the V6 variant locally, if memory serves me right coz there were two variants available during the time we bought ours. It was only later on in its life cycle that it only became available in the diesel variant. The constant beeps at 4:18 are most likely from the TPMS. That can be checked in the OEM stock head unit of the facelift models. The deeper center console cubby has an aircon vent for cooling stuff, which is definitely a quirk. The second row seats also have struts that avoid it from slamming down, in case you fold the seats forward. (Warning: Very difficult to do) The rear aircon SUCKS so bad, based on my experience. 1 and 2 positions are barely any different, which is why I leave it at 2 most of the time when I sit at the back. Also, sometimes, when adjusting the front thermostat, the air circulation sometimes turns off, which is kinda annoying. Iirc, there are a few power outlets at the back (for car chargers) and a few cupholders as well. Also, it's funny how you say that it felt like a sedan on that jump because with my driving experience, the ride felt stiff, even if I was the driver. (Probably because rally pedigree hahahaha) P.S. Next time, try reviewing the diesel variant. It should be a totally different experience with less power and more torque.

[@KyleLiongCars]

Thank you so much for all these. Really helped with my understanding of the car. The ride was probably because, as mentioned, it has some Bilstein shocks installed. The struts for the 2nd row I wasn’t able to mention, but yeah I saw that. Similar to the CK hehe The beeping was because the car has a Christmas tree dashboard and probably not just a TPMS issue hahaha! So many faults in this car like ABS, traction control, etc

[@mattsee45]

@@KyleLiongCars well, that comes with age I guess, still, it has respectable mileage for a 13 y/o car

[@KyleLiongCars]

Sorta barely used, this car. Same owner as the CK I reviewed with only like 7000Km

[@mermaidinamanhole5796]

@@mattsee45 Sir good day. Is there any chance to ask you a few regarding a Gen 4 Pajero? We are excited to buy a second hand Gen 4 but we don't know any person who owns one whom we can ask some key points in owning a Pajero. Thank you.

[@mattsee45]

@@mermaidinamanhole5796 well since we don't run ours for long distances, the car is relatively long-lasting, given you do your regular services once a year. Also, keep watch for the gauge cluster because it can sometimes make an annoying chime that doesn't go away even after starting the car. And don't expect anything good from the 3rd row seats since it's a mid 00s design without headrests, and can't fit even a kid. These are just some of the things I started to notice after writing my previous comment above. Everything else is as practical as an SUV can get, provided you take care of it well.

[@JonC363]

Nice review 👊 its very rare in youtube reviewing V6 Pajero here in Ph, like you said Its true that Naturally Aspirated will last longer than Turbocharged engine for sure and They are easier to maintain, We used to have 2006 Ford Explorer V6 and it never had problems, I still love old school engines despite fuel economy 😅

[@KyleLiongCars]

Thanks! I used to daily drive a 2009 Explorer V6 as well. Bulletproof engine, but sadly we had to replace the ABS hydraulic and electronic modules which costs over 150K to replace

[@JonC363]

@@KyleLiongCars It was reliable Ford Engine back then compare now, and we can actually relate that we have the same problems especially the suspension which cost to replace them almost 200k for it. But its still a Bulletproof Engine 💪

[@KyleLiongCars]

Damn that price hahaha! Yeah the new Ecoboost whatnots are probably not that reliable

[@JonC363]

@@KyleLiongCars Yea it is a lot of money to spend on it HAHAHA because of the suspension was really the problem, thats the reason why we let go of it sadly

[@meandering6206]

From what I understand the bonnet/hood is made from aluminium to save on weight! That would explain how light it is :)

[@KyleLiongCars]

Yes

[@jersonlouie6759]

what about the fuel consumption? how many Km/L?

I wish Mitsubishi kept going in United States and didn't end this model in 2006.

[@panama-canada]

10:10 it’s binding

[@mateoamaba44]

What do you think about the unibody chassis? I'm thinking of going with fieldmaster mainly because of that, but is it that much of a dealbreaker, worst case scenarios considered? I really want a Pajero for a family/camping car. Would love to hear your thoughts

[@osmaks1518]

good review, I like your style

[@KyleLiongCars]

Thanks

[@francocagayat7272]

how we wish there's a new Pajero soon once again......but this time, much more better, more futuristic, more modern, bigger, more spacious, more luxurious more capable and more sophisticated: -3.0Turbo MIVEC DOHC V6 Hybrid (400 PS combined) -bigger torque.....now at 550Nm -10spd automatic -standard AWD with AYC (active Yaw Control) -9 SRS airbags system -standard autonomous mode driving system -more luxurious and more state of the art features than the top-of-the-line Montero Sport GT 4x4 among those..... and make this all-new 5th generation Pajero a more serious rival against these: -Toyota Land Cruiser -Nissan Patrol -Ford Expedition -Chevy Suburban -GMC Yukon -all-new Jeep Grand Wagoneer

[@GreatGrandmasterWang]

Sayang discontinued na. Looks a lot better than a montero

[@KyleLiongCars]

Oonga eh

[@w1ldm4n82]

Tbh the pajero ck looks much better outside because of its bulging and rally-inspired design. Mmc made this one look more mature and conservative, even with the late 2014 facelift model that looks the same until now. We have that tho not a fan of it. I wonder why but regardless it's no match for the 2018-up j150 prado, as that one is on a different level when it comes to rugged exterior design.

[@KyleLiongCars]

Yeah I agree with you. The BK looks a bit too grown up compared to the CK haha

[@w1ldm4n82]

@@KyleLiongCars yes lol and without any telescopic steering adjustment, it just feels so lolo to drive hehehe.
