Not gonna lie when you started talking about the seat belt holders I was like c'mon everyone knows that...then when you showed how to actually use them properly, mind blown!
Another one not realised by some: If you press and hold the gear lever button when the car is in park and running, and press the start/stop button, you can turn off the engine but leave the accessories on.
Holding down the dash light adjuster changes the whole dash between day and night mode so u can run headlights during the day without having everything dark and turns off all the a/c control lights.
The center tray lid trick I did not know, and also the key fob thing, I think that feature has been removed in the newer models and you can now eject a compact key from your fob if it goes flat. My model is newer then yours and the little slot next to the shifter is a lot smaller, almost like a keyhole. So far loving the Pajero. Little bit concerned with all the electronic features so opted for the base model. A so underrated vehicle and the offroad capabilities are awesome. I was surprised what I went through with ease while other rear diff locked utes struggled through.
If you had read the instruction manual between pages 871-1042 you would have known all this! I enjoy my Pajero Sport, I just wish Mitsubishi would install a "average fuel consumption " read out that did not reset itself after 4 hours of standing.
Having owned this car for 3 years I knew most of these except - Tow override for transmission, key slot next to the drivers seat and the seat belt holder in 3rd row (I thought that was shopping bag hook ) Thanks average garage… ❤💕
Thanks for the video, the 2 things I wasn't aware of were the extra tailgate button & that the centre console lid clips away. Love my Sports Pajero & thanks for sharing
I’ve had my PS gls for 6 months. Didn’t know about the console tray clipping or those seatbelt clips. Great video!! Thanks for the efforts! Some tips: 1. The key fob has a switch on the back of it, pull it and you can ‘eject’ the metal key- you can lock the car with that and leave the fob inside if you go surfing (someone can still smash the window and steal the car tho, so be aware!!). Also able to unlock the door by metal key if key fob battery goes flat. 2. There is a secret menu in the stereo (TH-cam it), you can switch the car setting to ‘left hand drive’ so Bluetooth audio for phone calls comes out of the drivers speaker instead of the passenger one. 3. If you are talking on the phone and arrive at your destination and want to turn the engine off without interrupting your call, put the car in Park but hold the little shifter toggle button and then press engine off/on and it will cut the engine but the stereo system will stay on.
I have a Prado. I didn't notice that you could lock the Prado with the touch sensor on top of the door handle for 3 years. I also didn't know it had a lock and unlock button near the boot handle as well...didn't notice it for 4 years...
haha good stuff! i actually did not know about the console tray stowaway, and the belt hooks. Love my Pajero Sport , only a GLX/entry model, but has everything we need, and tows he camper no dramas. Maybe the only complaint would be the bottom (mine) support on the front seats, or lack thereoff. The wide console did take some tim eto get used to, but our model (19) has the soft padding on there which makes it nicer. Cheers for the video!
You can also close your ac vents in the dash. For the two in the middle just push the silver controller going towards the screen and it will close while for the two ac vents on passenger and driver side just push it towards the window and it will also close
Had mine eight months... Didn't know about button to on rear to lock, or centre tray or how to properly use the seat belt holder🤔thanks👍 no more walking to the door to unlock the rear 😁😁🤣
If you want to fold the door mirrors after locking the car, or the car's turned off, press the lock button on the outside door handle twice, or the lock key on the remote twice.
Wish they had these in the U.S. I love my Outlander Sport but want something a bit bigger. This would be nice and it looks better than the Eclipse Cross imo.
Hi, great video, I didn’t know about the tailgate lock button. Btw I’ve just fitted silicone intercooler hoses, following your intercooler video. Thanks a million & keep up the good work 👍😀
Danggg. I only read bits and parts of the manual, and i didnt know most of the stuff you’ve shown here, esp that smaller compartment at the rear. Thanks mate!
I didn't know about the console lid or the tailgate button so I will check it out tomorrow. I did a 4wd course and the instructor told me that if you put stop the vehicle on a hill in low range second it will hold itself there. Never tried it and not sure if I want to but there you go. I have a small tool on my keyring that is to unlock the transmission from what I have read. I use mine for camping and off road and have removed the plastic tie down attachments and replaced them with stainless eye bolts so that I can strap things down. I have also found some excellent storage options that work very well with this vehicle so if anyone is interested please reply.
@@T.A.G Just spent 15 mins detailing the products and how I use them and my reply has vanished it seems. Can you read it where you are as that has been a waste of time and I really don't do much in the way of social medial. Damn.
Hey mate just found your video, really great and informative. Much appreciated all the tips you highlighted. Thank you for taking your time on that. Great job.
Awesome video. Thanks for taking the time. Didn’t have a clue about the center console try and knew about the seat belt retainers but wasn’t using them right.
Great video. Appreciate your effort/time. Maybe do a video on how to use the DAB radio, as so many people don't understand it and that you can replay your favourite song when it comes on or put on ABC Kids for the little ones.
That was great. Thanks. I did not know that I can lock the car from the boot side. Also the slot I can put my keys. Amazing thanks for sharing these tips
I've got a QF Exceed so there are differences. I knew about the seatbelt hooks but not how to use them properly. I didn't know about the transmission "unlock" or the centre console tray. Thanks.
Nice vid...didnt know about the lid for centre consol or what the hole next to the gear stick was actually for or the button on the rear door so nice work.
I didn’t know about the centre console, seat belt clip mechanism, boot button. Thanks! I thought for a moment you were gonna show me some new gigantic under boot storage area I had completely missed! Alas.
Follow me home feature are also hidden feature in pajero sport. Pull high beam once right after turning off the engine and the headlight stay on for 10-15 sec.
Thanks for the tip on the boot button. I often borrow a Mitsi Outlander and notice the back boot door remains unlocked AFTER locking via key fob, so annoying! I'll be looking for that button next time use it.
Well bugger me, knew about the seatbelt holders but no idea about the rest, but to be fair we only got her a few weeks ago...........sending to my wife right now!! 👍 Great work by the way mate! 👍 Like the normal person, no bullshit style 👍👍
Man how did you find out about these 😂😂 the key override by the knee, the little square that lets you put it into neutral to be recovered or towed (would have helped at julimar when my car kept turning off to try not hydrolock itself and I kept forcing it back on) 😂😂 the centre console lid, 🤯🤯
Thanks for the vid, I've just ordered a GLS for delivery next Feb (approx) I love the look of your bull bar, what model is it and where did you get it? Cheers.
Well done excellent video, the only two things that I did not know about it was the first point which was the button that could lock the entire vehicle and the last one the console that little pocket where are you can engage that plastic tray well that’s very informative indeed
I knew about everything you mentioned except for the centre console tray. Also wanting to increase the indicator volume and switch the car from right hand drive to left hand drive preferences as it improves the Bluetooth and phone speaker.
If I knew that the Sun reflects off all the shiny surfaces INSIDE the cabin, I wouldn't have bought one, it's like driving with the Sun beside, next, overhead, behind with you. I said to the wife, I bet they tested this vehicle at NIGHT time bc they saw their mistake during daylight. We were driving South at 3.30 pm on Highway 1 in WA, talk about RAZZLE DAZZLE, BLINDED on all sides, whoever thought it would be a good idea to place chrome on the steering wheel needs a good kicking
I don’t own one of these but I would like one someday. Very useful tips. A much cheaper alternative to the Land Cruiser yet is the same sort of car with the body on chassis setup plus a better gearbox in my opinion. Only thing is do they have a cover that pulls out to hide the contents in the back ? Ive not seen one yet with this. I had a Subaru Outback a while ago with it and I liked being able to keep things from view.
i have the first gen model of what you have here and its amazing what stayed in the design and what didnt. like the back storage compartments are still the same size mine are a little bigger but the access panel things look the same size. i have a series 1 pa challenger mitsubishi this would be a pc challenger over seas.
I recently hired a new Pajero Sports and my hubby took the FOBkey for a little swim in the ocean! It stopped working after two days…which we thought would happen. Now…my question is…Is there a way you can start the car using the emergency key? Can you remove the little cap where an ignition barrel would normally be and expose a barrel to insert the key? Maybe a stupid question but I thought I’d ask.
That one I've never dealt with. My key went through the wash the other day. Open it up, let it dry out and clean any corrosion. It'll probably come good
@@T.A.G unfortunately we left it too long with salt water and it fried the transponder hence my question as to whether there is a hidden ignition barrel under the cap where a key driven barrel usually is. Fresh water not so bad, salty water very bad LOL
Can't speak specifically for the Sport, but most Mitsubishis with the cap on the ignition barrel it can be removed by pressing the little button on the cap, then pulling it off. The emergency key within the key fob will turn in the igntion to release the steering lock. If you want to start it when the fob-battery is dead, you stick the fob onto the end of the key (it has a slot in the end of the fob).
Thank you for t6e information like you I haven’t read the booklet all the way through I just wish Mitsubishi would make a dvd of the amazing car for sales against to hand out to buyers when they have purchased the vehicle
The annoying thing with the folding mirrors is they don't stay folded if you lock and unlock the car. I once folded the mirrors in to get out next to a concrete wall and could get in through the dirver's door when I unlocked it.

5 years of ownership and i didn't know about a few of these. Cheers
Well done.
Just picked up my PS yesterday, and my dealer didn't run me through any of these features! Thanks a lot mate! Some of these are really handy
Having owned this car for 3 years I knew most of these except - Tow override for transmission, key slot next to the drivers seat and the seat belt holder in 3rd row (I thought that was shopping bag hook )
Thanks average garage… ❤💕
I like how you acknowledge the back of your car is a tip🤣🤣
The center console lid. Only one I didnt know, but the whole video was worth it for it!
I’ve only had mine for 3 weeks and I’m still learning what it all does, thanks for these additional ones, and Pt. 2 as well.
Just got a 2017 4x4, this really helped me, the seatbelt, the tray, the key hole, the boot button
I'm in Scotland and I've had mine for 6 months,key fob,tray and boot button, hadn't a clue,cheers mate
Thanks for the video, the 2 things I wasn't aware of were the extra tailgate button & that the centre console lid clips away.
Love my Sports Pajero & thanks for sharing
If you press the main steering control: up up down down left right left right, you can turn the Pajero Sport into the monster mama V8 Pajero.
I gotta try this!
Just like you, have had the Pajero for 2 years and didn’t know any of what you showed here. Many thanks.👍
Other things are that you can do include setting the rear window demister to go on at 3 degrees or colder by itself.
Didn't know about the rear door lock button....after 9 months of ownership :).... many thanks
Had my Pajero Exceed for 4 years and didn’t know it had an engine under the hood.........
LMFAO , the rear door lock button , the console tray , thanks mate
I’ve had my PS gls for 6 months. Didn’t know about the console tray clipping or those seatbelt clips. Great video!! Thanks for the efforts!
Some tips:
1. The key fob has a switch on the back of it, pull it and you can ‘eject’ the metal key- you can lock the car with that and leave the fob inside if you go surfing (someone can still smash the window and steal the car tho, so be aware!!). Also able to unlock the door by metal key if key fob battery goes flat.
2. There is a secret menu in the stereo (TH-cam it), you can switch the car setting to ‘left hand drive’ so Bluetooth audio for phone calls comes out of the drivers speaker instead of the passenger one.
3. If you are talking on the phone and arrive at your destination and want to turn the engine off without interrupting your call, put the car in Park but hold the little shifter toggle button and then press engine off/on and it will cut the engine but the stereo system will stay on.
You're onto it!
I'm going tk make a follow up with the suggestions from the comments on YT and FB from this one:)

Omg, I can’t believe you didn’t know about any of that!
At the supermarket I always shut my car from the rear door
Legendary…I’ve had bog roll & bin bags stashed in the pat spot on my 2010 Challenger since 2014 🏆
I didn't know about the console tray clipping in the lid. Good video.

You can also close your ac vents in the dash. For the two in the middle just push the silver controller going towards the screen and it will close while for the two ac vents on passenger and driver side just push it towards the window and it will also close

4 years with the exceed and didn’t know about the center console tray.

Mine fold automatically as soon as it locks. I believe that's a dealer setting that can be changed
Well you learn something new every day.. Thanks for the top tips
Hahahhaha loved it mate, I didnt know about the tray in the middle console can be stored on the lid, also i too keep 2 sunglases, love my Paj sport.
Wish they had these in the U.S. I love my Outlander Sport but want something a bit bigger. This would be nice and it looks better than the Eclipse Cross imo.
US has bigger cars than this Pajero, with bigger engines

Where's is the power/radio antenna located or placed. I see no shark fin antenna for instance in your Mitsubishi Pajero sport..
