Forum: AWD Magna / Verada

Hi all. I've got a KL Verada AWD, that's up until now been absolutely faultless. For the last few months the auto trans has been playing up a bit. I had a full service done on it and it lasted a short while but the problems returned. When it's cold, it holds out on changing gears until it's...

Hi all. I want to pick up a live (acc active) feed to run some extra cig plugs in the rear of son's 2002 Series II Rada. I know I can splice into existing cig lighter, but would prefer a bit heavier wire feed if possible. Or, if someone has another pick up suggestion? I can run it straight to...

Hey all, I'm going to start planning a Magna build for when I buy my next car, leaving my TL AWD open for mucking around with. I love the handling of the Magna, I feel the AWD drivetrain is great however I would love some more power. I dream of having it race-prepped for both hillclimbs and...

Simple question really. The AWD floor carpet needs replacing as it has a hole in it. Can I just pick up an eBay special with this, or, do I need to source an AWD carpet?

Hi all Are there any tips you can give regarding removal of all flocked pillar trims. I want to transfer all of these from my KH to my TJ VRX I don't want to damage them of course so hoping i can get some guidance before i start Thanks

KH Verada, air con has been working great until this arvo. It works for about 5 seconds, nice cold air comes out of vents then the fans stop and the air icon starts flashing. Google found nothing to help with it, anyone had or know this problem? Cheers

I’ve looked through various threads but can’t find anything that matches the symptoms being displayed by my 2002, RalliArt Magna. It’s a manual with 178,000 and is unmodified (mine since new). The car starts as it should, doesn’t suffer from high fuel consumption, BUT the idle speed typically...

First time thread for V4Value! I just bought a 2003 Verada Xi, love the value you get for $7100!! It's the dark silver exterior with 2 tone grey interior, woodgrain console, leather, sunroof etc. I just added a set of CSA Savanah 18" rims with 40/235 low profiles. I am now wanting a lower stance,...

Hello, My transmission is beginning to fail. The first 3 gears are grinding while I accelerate and once I hit 4th and 5th it operates as normal. This was not due to mistreatment or lack of servicing, nor any other direct incident but apparently a common thing with Mitsubishis. My car has done...

I bought my TJII AWD Sports Magna back in June 2013, unregistered with panel damage, but drivable for $1500. Got it serviced and registered in August. I noticed it had a nasty shudder in acceleration. It was especially bad between 2nd and 3rd gear, but present most of the time. At its worst, the...

How are you guys finding oil consumption on average. Any of you's owned a FWD third gen magna before and can giv input

Hi guys I know someone wrecking a TJ magna and i'm taking the AWD out on a track day in a couple of months. Would there be any issue throwing on a set of TJ executive rims on the AWD for the track day to help save my tyres! From what I understand the TJ's are 15's where the AWD is 16's so...

Ah, I topped up the oil level yesterday after a service had been done because it seemed too low on the dipstick and now its showing about half a cm too high at cold. Is this going to cause any lubrication issue or is it ok to drive the car when slightly over the max like this? (Going on a...

hey guys my TJ Sports AWD is really shitting me to tears lately. compared to my TJ VRX, which is super smooth and super straight when on a flat road, the AWD is really 'darty', and will randomly jerk left or right depending on undulations/potholes etc in the road. I really have to keep a...

According to HM, the 116SS will fit TL-TW Magnas. But will it fit a 2005 GTVi KW Verada? Thanks in advance, Maurice

Hi guys I've got a TJ AWD which I was trying to sell recently but have had little interest or just lowball offers from people who think its just a normal fwd. So i'm tossing up the idea of using it as a cheap entry level track and hillclimb car, but still want to keep it street legal. Yes, I...

Hey guys Is there a reason mitsubishi never made the awd models avaliable as a manual? Is it possible to do a manual conversion on any/all of the awd models? What if any problems/downsides are there to doing so?

Hi guys I'm new to 3rd gens..... I have seen talk that a 2nd gen transmission cooler (off a KS for example) will work with a 3rd gen.... How hard would it be to set up? Is there a spot to bolt one on? Can it be done? Cheers!

I have a 2004 TW VRX AWD and the rear brake light that sticks to the glass keeps falling down on one side no matter what I do... I've taken it to two places to have them glue it back up. The first place failed completely and the second it stayed up for a few months until it started getting hot...

hi all , I have a 2005 verada GTVI that has a broken strut ( it drops out when jacked up)I need to fix it but not sure what models second hand parts will suit, or where in Kalgoorlie I can even get parts. I cant afford to take it to a mechanic, any help?
