Hows this, I just rang up mitsubishi to get a price on a new O2 sensor for the Pajero, the guy went off to the PC, did a search, I heard him say shiiiiit! Came back and told me to sit down.
$646 for the damn thing! and thats trade
Think I will be giving that a miss!

I rang an EFI joint, and got a quote of $143 (trade is cheaper). That is for a NGK one, which im sure is the same as the mitsu one. I know Ford parts are stupidly priced, but Mitsubishi now take the cake!

I got a quote for the indash clock a couple of years back - for the same price I could have gone out and bought a rolex. Also got a quote for a replacement petrol tank (second hand only) and that was far more expensive than getting an aftermarket long range modified replacement.
Mitsubishi are out of control for replacement parts. Unless I absolutely cannot get it elsewhere I refuse to buy from them. Over the last 5 years if I had replaced all busted bits with genuine Mitsu I would never venture offroad for fear of damage (to the wallet)

Wait until u need to replace ur front seatbelts- $800/ pr. No aftermarket ones avail.
I need new rear diff bearings. I haven't bothered with genuine, but aftermarket they are $150/ side (for NH Paj). The model b4, which I thought used same diff, are only $60/ side. Anyone know if they are interchangeable?

If it was a 4 cylinder 8" diff then not interchangeable with V6 9" diff.
The 9" rear diff has an odd size from memory hence the price but at least you can get them aftermarket rather than be wallet raped by Mitsu.............
