@@unasian2646 Great question, sorry late reply. The headlamp high/low bulbs are an H4 3pin type. What make, color, and power you get is up to you. I went with a warm spectum lower output type because I didn't want to be that annoying driver making the roads unsafe by blasting people with bright light in their eyes. That said, I think a lot of that comes down to properly adjusted/aimed bulbs, and I'm kind of wishing at this point I invested in a little higher quality, higher output bulbs. One thing that I did do was replace my headlamp assemblies which helped a lot in terms of light brightness and properly focused output. I'll have a video on that process eventually too.
@@penguinator007 right on, there were many fails along the way, I hope it does save you time. I also hope some find it funny too. I had to laugh at myself on the headlamp bulb insertion fail.
Thanks for the vid, My triton 3.2 was surging between around 1800rpm and 3000 rpm. I took out the scv, took it apart and cleaned it with 1200 paper and crc. Surging is completely gone now 😁
I tried this method on my 4M41 Strada 08... Worked for about an hour... Then suddenly it shut off for no reason. Now the issue is back.. Any more suggestions on what to do next about this?
@@bisayanibai4809 a scan is a great place to start. I am no exist, but I would think a fuel pressure drop would be the cause of a leak being reported. I would check all fuel system connections, houses, and seals. When you pulled the SCV, were you careful with the flat gasket and o-ring?
@@electriccarconversion Yes I was careful.. The gasket was safe. But for assurance, I also changed my O-Rings, the small one and the big one. The acceleration of my Strada 08' became better than before. It became quick and smooth. But it still shuts off. But not the same as before where it ALWAYS shuts off especially when I let off the accelerator pedal. I don't know what to do next. I was also reading some forums and I did what they said there but it still shuts off. Running out of ideas hehe.. Can you give me your contacts or where I can send you a photo of my SCV when I took it?
Hi there hailing u from the caribbean. Got an L200 did , starts only when the highpressure sensor is plugged out with the camshaftsensor and after it starts no acceleration. When its plugged in no start. I got a new scv will try to see if this fixes anything. Did u have the same issues concerning this? Rocher
@@electriccarconversion ok i see , when i scanned the vehicle and no codes. Im searching online if anyone have the same issue but nothing. Maybe u can help i measured the camshaft sensor wiring going to the pcm, i get 2 wires with 5 volts and 1 with ground, is yours the same? I checked this on a 2014 model and its the same. Dont have much L200 pickups on the island here.
Thanks for the great video. I am wanting to do this myself, but the service manuals say that the ECU should be re-learned once you replace the SCV. Can you recommend a good OBD tool or something to sort that out? thanks
Does your montero sport hv black smoke problem when u encounter this issue? I hv done all necessary service to counter black smoke issue and jerking problem but it still the same… only thing I hv not done is servicing the scv on my 2009 montero sport. Just need more advice b4 doing my scv service like what u did. Kindly advice thanks
The black smoke, and jerking are limp mode characteristics. Pull over, turn off and on your car. Read your error codes, they should point you to the problem. You can always try and service SCV.
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.
hi monteroguy, i have a monterosport 2009 4m41 diesel engine and been having the same problem of losing power, is the part sold in the link the same one used for my engine? or do you think i should try to clean it first before replacing it? thanks lot.
More money than brain. Typical "credit card" approach to solve problems. LOL 😂 What's wrong about having it work for several more years without further issues. With zero cost?
a very good sharing, i having rpm drop while driving, from google search and your vdo i believe its was SCV problem too. i will service it before change new one. is it GAP ... ( joking LoL ).
I just want to say thanks for the vid, I was going through a period of frustration and some mechanics weren't sure, as I couldn't figure out my problem. I have a Navarra d40 , and all the signs were similar to what everyone was experiencing. Changed my SCV and had it recoded all problems solved
Yeah, I had it scanned and the error code P0089 came up indicating fuel pressure regulator, thankfully this mechanic knew his stuff and help from all the comments and the vid.
have a montero 2011, the scv didnt look the same, it didnt have the snap rings to remove the piston, i just sprayed alcohol in the holes to remove some gunk
