The Mitsubishi Pajero Owners Club®

Hi everyone, firstly, this is my premier posting as I have only joined today after searching for a decent looking forum for Misubishi Pajero and Shogun owners. Looks like a great forum to.

So, here is my opening post.

After owning a Challenger years ago when they were first starting to be imported, and being suitably impressed with their reliability,  I decided recently to own a newer UK version, the Sport Warrior. A trip to my dealer saw me picking up a nice 05 plate model for a bargain price. The car itself is mint and runs beautifully, other than one small niggle which I have picked up on. I should really have roadtested the vehicle prior to handing over my cash, because it seems its sings it little legs off over 60mph, I woud have picked this up on the test as my old Challenger had better gearing and cruised quite comfortably on motorway journeys. I know the Challenger was also a 3.0ltr version. I would imagine this problem I have now is well known and  is because of differential gearing rather than the ratios in the gearbox itself. Most of my mileage is accumulated via motorway driving and I was wondering if any owners here had installed different diffs? Or, on a long shot, has anyone tried an electric overdrive system?

Any answers to this little "quirk" would be appreciated.

Thanks in advance.

I have a manual myself but there is a lot on here about the overdrive system, there is a switch somewhere on the selector and a light on the dash. Is your problem related to this maybe, someone with an auto will be along shortly to explain better.
