2009 Mitsubishi Montero Sport 2.5L Suction Control Valve (SCV) Removal and Service

[@goober650NX]

Did the very same job today on an Astra 1.7 cdti. Great result after stripping and cleaning. Idle is rock steady at 750 rpm after hunting and surging at idle over approx 110 rev range from about 710 rpm up to 820 rpm. Made driving in slow moving traffic a nightmare and three different drivers managed to stall the engine moving off from a standstill. Not good. Basically followed your method and it worked a treat. Thanks for taking the time to make the video and uploading.

[@electriccarconversion]

Glad it worked for you. Cheers!

[@leestringer8881]

After weeks of stalling and idle problems with my 09 plate l200 I replaced the scv with a new denso scv, which I had coded with diagnostic tool, still the problem persisted but with now an error code! Found this video and gave it a go and within 2 minutes the warning light was off and the truck behaving normal. This was 3 weeks ago and still it runs perfect! Definitely worth a go even if scv is new as they can stick also it seems.

[@anthonyrymer437]

Hi there from the UK, I've had an underpowered shogun 2008, sometimes I could put the throttle pedal to the floor and it wouldn't pick up more than 1200rpm, the engine light has been on for months. I watched your video and took my suction control valve out and ITS FIXED, I have power again and the light is off, many thanks, Ant. 👍😀

[@user-ic7mv6bj4w]

Thanks for the video. I did this to my 2006 Corolla Verso D4D. Engine kept hesitating and cutting out(especially at the lights). Cleaned the SCV and engine a lot smoother on idle and has not cut out since. Been a week so far, Thanks again!

[@electriccarconversion]

I'm pleased to hear this!

[@solacechannel8045]

I did this on my 2010 3.2 montero. Same problems before. It did well after cleaning the scv. However the engine sign on the dashboard lit for hours of driving. Luckily it went away after restarting on my next drive. Im happy i watched your video. Thanks to you

I have a Toyota Hiace D4D. It has done 250,000km. Been having trouble with it cutting out at idle while stopped and hesitating or even cutting out at low throttle position while driving. Today I pulled out the SCV and sure enough a bit of gunk in there and slight wear on piston. Fine marks as well. Polished it up as you show in the video and a good clean. Runs like new again! Thanks so much for your ideas in this video! Owe you a beer some day!

[@mattquebec6377]

the 2010 to 2013 onwards montero uses the non circlip triton vgt long type SCV. When cleaning it just soak its nozzle only in a carb cleaner or kerosene solvent. when a short SCV IS TO BE REPLACED with the long fixed type SCV it needs to relearn in the oem carshop. So to stay away from relearn procedure replace the short scv with a short and the long scv with long so it is plug and play. 14060A37 short scv for 2009 and below monty. while 14060A056 long scv for 2010 to 2013 montero sport.

[@electriccarconversion]

Matt Quebec thanks for the information, Matt!

[@electriccarconversion]

Well today is December 14th, 2016, about 1.5 months and roughly 1000 kilometers since I did the procedure. I started having faults very similar to the faults when the SCV was initially failing. I plugged in my generic OBD2 scanner and saw an EGR error (P2413). This isn't as specific as the fault codes retrieved by the dealership at a cost of P1500 but my scanner only cost me P600. Anyways, that's a topic for a different video. I'm going on a road trip tonight so rather than recondition the part again, I installed the replacement part I have a link to above. That part did the trick and the car is running very well again. I'm ordering more of those parts as a result. It's worth noting that there are two gaskets, one o-ring style and the other flat gasket seen in the video. In the video, both stayed in place, but this time they both came off. Make sure to keep track of BOTH GASKETS. I'll try and annotate the video with regards to that. I will recondition the original SCV when I get back from my road trip/vacation, this time I will remember to polish the walls of the cylinder where the piston slides, which if you watched the video, you will recall I only cleaned with solvent. I may make another video for that. Best wishes to all.

[@electriccarconversion]

I made my road trip from Davao Siargao just fine, but today, December 17th 2016, as I'm driving around the island I started having faults again. The physical symptoms are not exactly the same. I checked my fault log and it again says EGR system (the same P2413) . I believe I may actually be having EGR issues not SCV this time around, though perhaps a result of my frequent SCV faults prior to reconditioning my SCV. Time for more learning.

[@electriccarconversion]

Ok, so on 12/19/2016 I took my car into Mitsubishi Butuan. They picked up the same EGR (P2413) error. I went ahead and had the 25k service performed and had them completely clean the EGR valve, EGR intake and the throttle body/intake manifold. There was a ton of carbon, the valve itself had 2-3 millimeter of build-up. I'm betting the car didn't have its 15k service when the EGR should have been cleaned, especially since I bought it at 15k. The EGR valve is very expensive and I would highly recommend cleaning everything before kicking down for a new part. I was told EGR valve should be cleaned every 15k. Car made the drive back to Davao city with no problems or faults, infact performance is greatly improved. (I had more power and smoother acceleration with reduced knocks.) I'll clean up my other SCV and keep it as a spare.

[@milanlauro87]

thanks for all the explanations. I will be cleaning the SCV tomorrow for my primera p12 so watching your video was very useful before my try.

[@tritonmovies3222]

MonteroGuy if you getting a egr error check it for carbon build up egr returns exhorst gas back to engine i did a block off but if you do this you need to drill a 13mm hole in the butterfly on intake if you do a search on soot bild up you will see what im talking about

[@mattquebec6377]

i dont think so unless ask the oem. The 2011 scv does not have the big spacer shown in this video, but the fixed type scv on 2011 can reach up to 5 years for a well maintain diesel fuel system. reasonable to replace if reach 100km or 5 years.

Please do let us know how this SCV cleaning goes with your 3.2L Montero. To answer your question regarding the check engine light. The check engine light needs to be reset after completing a repair. I know how to do this using scanner, though I think I have heard there may be techniques for resetting without scanner, I'm not sure how. I'd suggest buying an inexpensive ELM327 scanner.

hi there! Thanks for the great video man! I have the same ( 2010 Triton, but with the montero front/ 4d56 engine) literally having the same issues and now just had EGR issues. I just swapped out my SCV but had similar problems ( i'll check again after swapping our my EGR), but thanks for the great vid!

[@electriccarconversion]

RUSSEL Wong, what makes you think it's EGR valve? I'm not suggesting it isn't, I'm just curious about your diagnostic process. I also ask because my non dealership OBDII scan I just did on my failing car came up as a generic EGR system fail. I replaced my SCV based on the failure symptoms being similar to the previous problems and problem solved.

[@MrShok888]

heya! What happened is, i got the same exact issue as you ( same engine and all), check light, limp mode, off engine, hear the big " clunk" noise. initially swapped out fuel filter and was happy, problem happeend again and got worse ( after 1 week) Then googled up and changed out SCV. SCV changed, was happy, 1 day later, check light came on, this time for EGR issues, cleared it , but it came on every time i started the car. then this time, the car would go into limp mode about 2 mins after u start driving ( now it was getting predictable) Just got the whole EGR changed out ( my EGR is blanked off, but forgot, the EGR motor is still open to the exhaust, whole EGR is choked up, So now, everything changed out, check light off, so far so good :) Somehow or arather, i feel the EGR and the P0093 code issue with the SCV is somehow linked :) just take note :)

If so, you can hook up a scanner and get the fault code which should indicate the exact problem. If it's the SCV, it should say so.

garry naval there are two gaskets, a flat gasket and a round o-ring style gasket. Make sure to watch for both when you pull the SCV out. If you notice in my video, both baskets stayed in place. I took it off again at a later date and both baskets came off. If still in good shape, and if clean, sure, use them again. Perhaps put a little clean oil on them to help preserve them and seal. Good luck.

KISS ANDRAS I'm glad you liked the video. If it were me I would buy a cheap OBD2 scanner. I sell some on OLX. Get the error codes and see if the error codes name the SCV. If so, then you found your culprit. You can then repair the SCV and reset your error codes. Let us know how it goes. Cheers.

[@kissandras2456]

Hi , i have an OBD II scanner . I have 2 fault codes P0093 and P0107 , one of then is the MAP sensor but i checked that and the MAP sensor it”s working ok . Maybe I have a problem with the injectors , but after 2 mechanics have seen the car I have no answer from them

[@electriccarconversion]

P0093 Is fuel system leak detected. You may perhaps take a careful look at your entire fuel system and look for leaks. When my SCV was bad I had an error code specific to SCV. That said, it likely wouldn't hurt to clean your SCV as shown in the video, but I'm not sure it will solve your current issue.

[@electriccarconversion]

Upon further reading P0093 indicates a leak between the mechanical fuel pump and the injectors. Perhaps search there. Also, if you do remove the SCV, keep an eye on the two gaskets, one flat, one round that go between the SCV and the fuel pump.

[@kissandras2456]

I will search between the mechanical fuel pump an the injectors but I also read that P0093 is a large fuel leak wich is asiciated with an injector being cloghed and the ECU interpreting it like a leak... This i've read at an L200 fanclub

[@mizungo5126]

Hey MonteroGuy, I have similar issues with my 2010 UK L200 2.5 DI-D. When watching your video, I had one question I couldn't answer. You found scoring on the piston and cleaned it up using the paper and drill combination, what about the bore inside the valve? Did you notice any scoring inside there, if so how did you clean it? Do you know if you can purchase the o-ring seal and gasket for this to do complete overhaul?

[@electriccarconversion]

Mizungo 512 later I did realize this job could be done more completely by polishing inside the cylinder. I purchased a dremel tool and buffer bits and polished the inside with some toothpaste. I may upload that video soon. I think doing both is best. My gasket and o-ring were still good and I didn't need to purchase, so I don't have a source. Please feel free to link if you do. A gasket set is included in the OEM replacement part I subsequently sourced and offer for sale in Philippines for P4500 ($90).

[@richmondguiwo]

Sir, I thought you could help me. I have a montero 2011 gls v. And it minimally splutters oil from the dipstick. No smoke whatsoever. Is this a concern? It is always been maintained by mitsubishi.

[@electriccarconversion]

Richmond Guiwo sounds like the seal on the dipstick that should keep oil from coming out is worn or missing. Just my guess, and it's hard to tell without seeing it.

[@Biker_Space]

Hey Gulwo. I just had a Mitsubishi L200 having the same problem of pushing out the dipstick and spraying oil in the engine bay. It could be as simple as having a worn o ring on the dipstick that no longer holds the dipstick down or as serious as having worn piston rings on one or more pistons. This in turn leaks PRESSURE from the combastion chamber down into the engine creating excessive pressure and therefore escaping throuh the weak links, the dipstick. In our case, it was worn piston rings and from there on yoj have two choices. Either get another used engine with the risk or have your engine rebuild, both could be expensive. We found another good used engine and installed it. All problems solved. Hopefully you find a solution. Let us know.

No codes show? I think you need to get codes, or get old school mechanics opinion. I think you'd be taking shots in the dark otherwise. Good luck.

i have a 2010 mitsu montero and i have a problem on power my rpm stays in 2000 and my generic scanner got a dtc p0089 and p1272. Got my SCV replace, tank cleaning, fuel filter replace. Seems nothing is working for me. Do you have any Idea ? thanks

[@electriccarconversion]

adkyn duran I don't know actually. Let's hope someone chimes in here with some useful advice. It seems are generic scanners often produce relatively generic codes. I think we need to get applications that are specific to our make and model which can give us more useful error code interpretation. There is always the painful act of taking a car into the dealership and paying the money to have them scan. They will often then discount the cost of the labor against the cost of the scan. But the quality of service at these dealerships varys greatly. Good luck, keep us informed.

[@adkynduran7896]

I 've pull out the new SCV and did'nt erase the fault code and put the old scv back in again. It runs but with no power and the rpm stays at 1500. I drove the car near the mitsubishi service shop and let them check for fault. What a surprise they got P0089 the same with my fault code reader result pinpointing the SCV itself. I said that I have a new OEM SCV with me and I let them install the new one. They have a laptop scanner to erase or reset the fault and it was erase perfectly. The car runs smooth and with power. What I see here is that my Innova 3130c is not capable on erasing that kind of fault. thanks bro. note : They clean my airflow sensor with a brake cleaner and little spray with an airgun.

[@electriccarconversion]

adkyn duran thank you for the follow up. So it seems that it was the error code itself that the generic scanner was not able to fully erase that was causing the problem? Is that what you're thinking?

[@marksia8064]

Hi MonteroGuy, If the SCV has a bigger clearance after you use sandpaper would the bad fuel come in directly? How's your montero so far? Did you replace it with a brand new SCV?

[@electriccarconversion]

Mark Sia, so far so good. I've since also picked up an OBD2 scanner just to confirm what I have observed from driving. It drives well and idles well. To answer your question, I suppose with increased tolerance, the potential for dirty fuel to contaminate is increased. Though I would argue the tolerance increase is minimal and I would also suggest we swap out our fuel filters on a more regular basis. Though these fuel filtets are fairly expensive, I'm working on ordering some from the factory and will offer them soon at a steep discount to what the stealership is selling them at.

[@marksia8064]

Cool. Were you able to buy from the OLX link you shared? I'm thinking of ordering one from him and temporarily doing this method you shared. Is this seller of SCV legit? Appreciate your feedback. :)

[@electriccarconversion]

Mark Sia, that seller is me, so I'm going to be biased and tell you, I'm legit ;). I didn't need the part because my fix has worked so far. It's a high quality part.

[@mokhitlikhoabane6272]

Hi, thank you very much for this video. My Isuzu Dtec/dmax 3.0L, 2008 started stalling and refusing to idle. the air meter sensor still works fine and is free of dirt. I therefore suspected suction valve. Today, 26.11.2016, I performed surgery on my suction valve as you had shown in your video. I dont believe it. The truck idles fine, smoother and no stalls The Isuzu agent locally had told me the price of a new one is USD550. Thank you very much.

[@GERMANSEGOVIAC]

Thanks for the contribution, if you could help me, I had fuel, where is the suction valve, the mechanic tells me that I should change since it is damaged, the leak was in short urban areas, it is changing and it is working well and there was no leakage, but I made a long journey and when I reached the destination I fixed and followed the leak the part of the suction valve is soaked with fuel, much less than before: I bought the original suction valve and with it came the valve or an oring (jebecito), the mechanic changed it but did not put the oring, just put the package that is equal to the valve cover that was already there, I assume that the leak that is why it is not hermetic, IF IT IS CORRECT NOT TO PUT IT THE ORING (jebecito) that came; or what may be going on for there to be fuel leak, is L200 4x4 year 2008 diesel, grateful for your help.

[@electriccarconversion]

I would think you should put the o-ring seal in there if it wasn't already. Sometimes mechanics use formagasket, or sealant, and this is more often than not a bad idea. Chunks os sealant can break off an clog oil cooling channels etc.

You should get a check engine light if having significant SCV issues. Though it may not light as the issues develop.

Hi MonteroGuy, thank you for the informative video sir. Just a quick question, after replacing the SCV, do I need to have it reprogrammed or something? or is it a straight up plug and play replacement? Thanks in advance!

[@electriccarconversion]

Darren Ferenal, straight plug and play.. Provided you don't have other issues. I had an EGR issue and low battery issue. All good now.

[@nonafix]

Thank you sir! I procured a Denso one, sadly before seeing your video and links, and the shop where I will have it installed gave me a heads up to have it reprogrammed. But based on the video and your expert advice, NO NEED! haha Diagnosis already set me back P1,200 in Mitsubishi dealership.

[@electriccarconversion]

Darren Ferenal I am not really an expert. Maybe they mean clearing the errors from the ECU. I sell OBDII scanners on OLX for P600 ($12) that will allow you to do the same, and read error codes in the future.

Thank you, and hope u will understand, sorry for my bad english :D

[@electriccarconversion]

dany danutz558 I've had the U1101 error, and I believe it is a code pertaining to an error occurring in the communication between the automatic transmission and the ECU. As I have a manual transmission, I disregard this error. Is your transmission a manual?

[@electriccarconversion]

dany danutz558 you can disregard that U1101 error because you have a manual transmission.
