Maintenance Updates:
After 4000KM running I opted to oil change and found there was a tiny leak just under the drain bolt, which was not leaking before because of washer covering it.
Made a mistake of using electric welding to cure it, but welder bro went a bit wild,
Next day, fixed it with gas welding at closest denter,
Finalized by magic epoxy,
I forgot to purchase VIC 901 oil filter from Plaza, so had to buy another brand from nearby shop. Guard GDO-178 is compatible with Pajero Mini,
From now on planning to use Shell Helix HX6 10W-40 engine oil, 4L is for 2,700 Rs,
- Front Grill Fixed with 3D Printed Clips
After I removed AC radiator fan with burnt motor, I needed to fix the front grill back. But those 18mm X 10mm plastic clips were nowhere to be found in market. Previously, I got it fix with nut-bolt combos from denter, but putting it back would be really tedious job for myself.
So, I fired up 3D Builder tool on my laptop, designed the clip in couple of iterations,
3D Printing 14 of them took about 2 hours,
The clips came out perfect,
Front grill is back on temporarily, and this time it was really easy to fix,
Lesson learned, don't use wrong tool for the tiny job.
Until next update, ciao!
