Forum: AWD Magna / Verada

Hi All. I occasionally drive my daughters Verada ( nice car BTW ). Quick question about the tacho. Thickish white marks on 0 and 1K. 2 thinner lines in between. Between 1K and 2K and up there are 4 thinner lines, denoting 200rpm, I assume. What do the 2 thinner lines between 0 and 1k mean ??...

I have a DTC 24 Vehicle Speed Sensor coming up on Evoscan. Car is running shit, where can I look up Mitsubishi parts on the net, and where can I buy these sensors from, apart from the dealers?? Cheers.

Hi I've just picked up a TL AWD with 277k on the clock for $500... It needs a paint job, which is why I bought it and on top of that, everything seems to be okay mechanically. Engine oil isn't burnt, it drives fine etc. I do have a question though. When you put it in drive, it's slow to engage....

Hi Guys. Great site. Has been very helpful over the past year or so. First post on behalf of my daughter. I have a suspicion the cat may need replacing. Rotten egg smell. High fuel consumption. I will be looking at the fuel side first and replacing the oxy sensor. My main question is whether all...

Hi all, As mentioned in title, my TW VRX AWD feels as if the rear is about to overtake the front when accelerating around corners like roundabouts. I’ve only owned the AWD for a bit over 2 weeks, so I’m on a big learning curve (many thanks to AMC & members for sharing oodles of valuable...

Will the koni font and rear struts from a ralliart magna fit the awd or are the fwd and awd suspensions different ?........sorry if this has been asked before.

Need help! I want to do the angel eye setup on my 2003 KJ Verada AWD but I don't know how to. Can you buy the whole headlight like that or do you have to DIY? I really like the look of it and want to do it to mine.

So just then in my 2003 kj Verada, I unlocked it (but only the drivers side with the remote) and pressed the button to open to the boot. As soon as I pressed it the alarm started going off. I had to put the key in the ignition to "on" to et it to stop. But in my 2002 TJ Magna I only had to press...

Has anyone had an issue now or before where you've gone to shut the boot but it doesn't latch properly so you have to slam the boot hard to get it to shut?

Sheesh, my battery died in the KL and finding a new one is a PITA. I decided on a Century Ultra Performance model, code 75D23R MF. I trust Century and this is the one that the Century website recommends. Its got the terminals correctly oriented, has 620 CCA and it should fit. I use my Alpine...

Took my car to a cousins work, had to get new cv's (mostly front drivers side) and center tailshaft balancing, he was only able to do balancing on the tailshaft as the CV's they got in were'nt fitting. I have the car back now still with busted CV and need to locate some.. anyone know where i can...

Hi, I had the wave spring go in my 4 speed auto transmission in my 2001 KJ Mitsubishi Verada. I found an Auto-Trans place that offered a warranty on a good repair i.e rebuilding and/or replacing everything back to the wave spring. They offered a 12mth or 24,000km warranty. The car came home...

I brought my tj nearly 2 years ago now. Each winter she seems to get worse with stalling or loss of power. Usually only happened till she warmed up but is now surging and stalling all day. My wife loves the car but thos is putting a big damper on it. Ive reconnected the battery and let it idol...

Can anyone tell me if theres a spare power connector under the dash anywhere? I want to hook up a dash cam and dont want to run a lead all the way to the cig socket. It would need to be always on, not switched via accessory or ignition. What about the sun roof, where does that usually get...

My AWD keeps activating its alarm. Open the driver's side door or the bonnet and the alarm sounds. I've replaced the following; Ignition antenna ALL door switches and bonnet switch Things I've checked; ALL electrical connections to from BEM to ECU. ALL Electrical connections in the...

On a recent trip to Tumut, the exhaust system on my AWD blew large holes in each of the two bends between the centre section and the muffler. The resulting racket was unreal, especially at 2000 rpm, and I had a very tiresome trip home. Anyway, I've now had the entire centre and rear muffler...

Hi all, I'm tossing up between a KL AWD Verada and a KW XI Verada, I have never driven a AWD Magna/Verada, just wondering is the AWD much better to drive? is it worth paying a bit more for the AWD and the higher fuel costs? cheers

Hi all, Wondering if anyone can help please? I have a KJ Verada auto with triptronic gears but I only ever really use the auto. I was driving the other day and left the handbrake on and when I got home the rear brake lights and the brake light on the windscreen stayed lit up even when the car...

I've just noticed I have what looks to be a leak from the transfer cases drain plug, (see pic). Its a viscous oil, mostly clear with a slight yellow tinge. Its not ATF or engine oil. In the pic theres a drop hanging from the plug. I've no idea how long its been leaking, but the car was sitting...

Im thinking of getting a socket set for a liitle DIY around the car just to do simple stuff like fluid and filter changes, brake pads, rotors etc. What's the range of socket sizes that I would need for this car or cars in general. A 3/8 drive only offers up to 19mm and I know that the Oil drain...
