More frequent oil changes.
Or try a oil with a better detergent.
What oil u use?
Castrol?

I can't rem d last one i used, but dis time I used Mobil 1, dose dat oil have better detergents

Use shell helix or valvoline it is cheaper and heavier detergent.

[Ted_v2]

Wuh he said. I used to use castrol. Engine had quite a bit of gunk and a low temp break down.

Shell helix works fine for me now.

[ZeroOne]

Yes Valvoline is good. Do they sell these locally?

Let a mechanic (if you can't handle the job) take off the rocker cover and clean whatever you can see, I don't see another proper method of removing that from the head. Do it asap so the oil ports won't clog up.

Is it a simple job to take off d rocker cover an clean it for my self

[Ted_v2]

Yep.
Its not that hard.

I believe so. You have to contact the dealer tho

[icefox]

Yep.
Its not that hard.

it's jus bolts to unscrew, but wat exactly do I use to clean it with an wud I need any new gasket or any seals wen replacing the rocker cover

[Ted_v2]

Not sure about the seals.
It should be able to just reinstall after. If the seals are hard however it might leak.
A good wire pick should remove it easily but if it goes down it can cause more harm than good.

U have a 4g18 not so?

[cinco]

Once u remove the valve cover replace the gasket and plug seals. Everytime u remove the cover replace.
Also when tightening make sure u run them finger tight then follow a criss cross pattern from the center out.

icefox you have the 4g15 gdi correct? if so this application wont work.
4g15 gdi in CS and the 4g15 CK engine (which i assume turbo beast is referring to) are two completely different engines.

Mathuras Auto Parts in St. James has the entire rocker cover seal kit for about $150 max.
It includes the four spark plug seals and the rocker cover/tappet cover gasket. This plug seal kit can be used on the 4g13, 4G15 and 4G18 engines.
The 4G15 engine in the "new RORO CS3 shaped CS2 Lancer" is a DOHC non GDI n4l. The only difference in seals here would be the camshaft seals. Two on the DOHC and one on the SOHC. This same Lancer is what icefox has.

[BrotherHood]

The last batch of local 'long bumper" CS3's from Diamond Motors had that black tappet cover, just like in the pic. 4G18 engines.

[thatguy3832]

The difference in them is the intake manifold.

[car boys]

[Stark Auto Rentals]

Hi Guys,

I'm having a problem with a CS3 lancer (4g18 engine) and I need some help. Currently, if you go down on the accelerator pedal, the engine revs up fine, but the car just seems to accelerate really slowly. On the highway, I can't seem to reach over 110km/h even though the engine is running at 6000rpm. The mechanic serviced the car, changed plugs, fluids, etc. He's telling me that I need to replace the IACV, but I'm a bit curious, since the vehicle idles well to me. Any thoughts on this? I'm inclined to think that this is more a transmission problem.

[bnrampage]

Sounds like a transmission problem your having

[madpeoplebizniss]

Anyone knows where can I get the plastic clip that holds the door glass to the regulator for the cs2 . I bought one and only the driver door works cuz all the rest of clips is broken and I can't get it to buy at the parts stores. I would be greatfull for any help.THANX.

You are right. Transmission solenoids need servicing. This problem will worsen with time and you will not be able to pass about 60-80km/h. Can the car climb an incline from standstill?

Check Jenton's in Aranguez. They will fix you up.

[moses_boss12]

Tuners..so i having two problems..When my AC on and car at standstill getting a rough jerking only happens when car is in D and foot just on brakes..once it goes into N in eases up significantly...Second problem first time I seeing this is was 2night..in some serious traffic coming our of POS and i hear my deck cut off(2 times) and come back on..when i look again my dashboard lights dimming but this was only for a short period (like bumper to Bumper) once i got on the highway and could have accelerated i notice the dimming stop.
suggestions help anything would be greatly appreciated
