[kjaglal76v2]

Dollar savers is in the bamboo next to bobby's

[Dave]

And also close to Chandy lane on El Socorro main rd

[ZeroOne]

I didn't pay 400-500 to replace the tank though. Was about 300 max.

And if I changing rad i going OEM even if is foreign used, unless if its a good proven and tried after market.

These OEM rads could take real licks not sure about others.

on the silver lancer the top tank had cracked I decided to so with a brass top dual core radiator and external transmission cooler cost for the radiator at that time was about $1,400.00
IMHO that was a very good decision to the extent I did the same with the Black Lancer when I bought it to this date no issues I have that car 6 years now however that one cost me $1,600.00 at the point of purchase

[Dave]

Or u can get new all aluminium for about 1500 tt

[PapaC]

Brothers I meeting closed business places in Marabella. Someone can give a contact number for someone close to the area where I can get it changed?

[moses_boss12]

you and I had the same problem difference is you paid $1400 to fix it while I paid $300 ...you do the math

That $300 still working for me down to this day, after many years too.

PapaC i know a place in st james but not sure if they open

that being said I strive for a cooler running engine the dual core radiator has better cooling efficiency that coupled with a 72 DF thermostat and external transmission cooler does wonders with the engine performance
your AC system also performs better as the condenser pressure is a bit lower

[ZeroOne]

probably man probably, but if it was so much better Im sure the engineers at Mitsubishi would of put it in

[madpeoplebizniss]

Zero one I have 3 caps for the 15" rim and 4 caps like your pic but the mitsu emblem raised on the outside of the cap and its for 15" aswell

[PapaC]

Got it changed. Replaced the radiator. $700 plus labour. Thanks for he help.

[ronsin1]

probably man probably, but if it was so much better Im sure the engineers at Mitsubishi would of put it in

They just do the basics to ensure the vehicles can operate within its parameters
That is why there is always aftermarket parts to install
Just like a cold air intake upgrade, exhaust headers etc

[KURMAman]

Bess radiator man = El Socorro Main road, street opposite York Factory. man orn like korn

[ZeroOne]

Zero one I have 3 caps for the 15" rim and 4 caps like your pic but the mitsu emblem raised on the outside of the cap and its for 15" aswell

I didnt ask for any rim caps think was someone else

PapaC where you got it fixed?

Hi Guys, new member here from Pakistan. I own a 2006 JDM Mitsubishi CS2A-STJEZ 4G15 4WD CVT Lancer.

Here is what was changed recently:

Timing belt
new timing belt sensor
new plugs
CVT oil changed (not too sure on the quantity but the tranny took around 5.9 litres)
Engine oil changed
Air filter changed
Suspension work

Mileage: Over 160,000KM

Original oxygen sensors running in this, possible vacum leak before air filter and after air filter before the throttle body(should not matter in my view). Now no ECU codes showing up but here's what the car does:

On D mode the car will ping/knock from 40km/h onwards as long as my foot is on the throttle like a feather, I try to accelerate and apparently when more fuel is involved the situation corrects but I cant have a lot of foot on the pedal all day to prevent knocking on the car. At 60km/h cruising the knocking is so prominent it's not funny.

Now I am feeding the car 87 RON, while its a JDM import so needs 90 RON. If everything works fine then this should be no problem as I believe ECU in closed loop adjusts everything accordingly to what it gets.

Oh btw the big thing here to note, in Open Loop(startup), or when I fill tank with hi octane the knocking and pinging is absolutely gone.

Averaged 10.14km/l on hi octane, more like 9km/l on regular plus hi octane combo, don't ask but it's worse on regular only.

So guys what do I look up for in a scan? LTFT OR STFT something special? Knocking is not present in above 20-25% throttle positions or even full throttle. Btw guys strangely the knocking/pinging will not come up no matter what RPM I try in Park or Neutral.

I am just lost here, majority of the cars here run all their lives knocking because 99% folks dont know anything about corrective measures other than putting in hi-octane.

Adding one more thing DS and L mode run fine and dandy unless I try and have a extremely feather touch on DS it will do a bit of pinging but does not stay at lower rpm for long so I guess the problem is not prominent in that mode. Also this is a non GDI engine.

So nobody could help me out??

[Nidish]

So about to do a servicing, already bought:

- K&N Air Filter 33-2105
- Sakura C1011 Oil Filter
- 3L Manual Trasmission Fluid GL-4 SAE 75W90
- Shell Helix HX7 Synthetic 10W40 Engine Oil
- Already Changed Coolant to Asuki Extra Long Life Coolant
Need to buy:

- Power Steering Fluid
- Brake Fluid.


On the front page of this thread it says Brake and Clutch fluid use DOT 3 or 4, where is the Clutch Fluid reservoir found? I only see power steering and brake fluid reservoir. Also which filter to get for fuel filter? Where is the filter located? Thanks

[BrotherHood]

Zero one I have 3 caps for the 15" rim and 4 caps like your pic but the mitsu emblem raised on the outside of the cap and its for 15" aswell

It was I who asked for a center cap. I have the OEM 14" mitsubishi rims, like this......











In addition, if I were to upgrade my wheels to 15", would this 15" wheel fit?



I like this one more than the 14" that I have.

[daniel135]

Both are two different spacing brotherhood. 14s are 4 x 100. An d 15s r 4 x 114

[ZeroOne]

a lot of questions in here....ill answer what i could

Nidish fuel filter is located inside the gas tank, that part is usually never changed

[BrotherHood]

Thanks pal. Noted.
If I have to do this 'upgrade' I will have to change the entire hub.


The rear disc setup, that's compatible with the 4 x 100?
Or is there a set up specific to either lug spacing?

What about Brake and Clutch Fluid? Same reservoir? Thanks
