Mitsubishi Hua Hin

Post by buksida »

Quick word of warning, if you need to get your Mitsu serviced don't use the Hua Hin garage, take it to Pranburi.

Hua Hin skimp on important checks such as brakes and tyres as we've just found out, Pran do a thorough job with all the necessary checks to keep your wagon tip top and road worthy.

I took my wagon (Mitsi) there on a late Friday afternoon, asked if they could clean the fuel-injection unit, and refill the refrigerant for the air-con. They were all helpful and full of smiles, "Yes" they said, "sure, no problem, where u come from?"
Too late to do it that day, so I said I'd come back.

Went back the following Monday, they all but ignored me, and the mechanics were away at lunch, so waited till they came back.
Then I was told that I would have to take it to Pranburi to get the fuel-injection done, and they coudn't do the air-con either because they didn't have the right equipment!

Thanks for the warning. Still waiting for them to call back about replacing the broken fuel filter for the third time in just over a year...

Did you collect your new Pajero yesterday and if so are you still grinning? Unfortunately I heard from my dealer this morning that mine won't be arriving next week :banghead:

Got it and so far still grinning! Much smoother drive than my 2011 Fortuner Sportivo, but of course it's 5 years newer. I guess the new Fortuner is much better than my old one too.

Sorry but service department in HH don't seem to have improved. Pranburi were quick, efficient, fixed my broken fuel filter, did a full 60,000km service check and replaced the air con filters and oil all in 1 hour.

Had a look at the new Pajero Sport too...very nice indeed. I look forward to trading my old model in.

I'm still waiting for mine Pete, it was supposed to be ready tomorrow but I was told on Saturday that delivery is delayed - originally like huahin4ever I was going to go for Titanium Grey but in the end settled for Silver - the dealer offered me either white or dark metallic bronze last week, but neither were to my taste. Hopefully the delay will be no more than a week, but TIT!!
