Forum: AWD Magna / Verada

Hi peeps, I have to get 4 new tyres and im wondering would it be cheaper just to get tyres or would it be better just to get new rims and tyres, plus maybe safer because lower profile etc. Thoughts?

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?

Like my other thread about transmission and TC oils; I now want to understand what the recommended engine oils are and the pros and cons. The AWD is coming up for a service and I notice that the oil is dark black. I'm surprised because I had this done only about 8000 kms ago just after I bought...

Hey all, Awd tl owner here. My one owner car has 182000 ks on it now, and I'm starting to experience a few minor issues as it ages. The car has always been serviced every six months, with bits replaced as soon as needed. It's general condition is good and it is garaged and well cared for...

I'm still getting used to the AWD, so this may seem like a bit of a noob question. I'm asking to be on the safe side. Low to moderate speed tight corners in my AWD seems to provoke tyre noise. Two corners come to mind where this happens consistently; one is a 90 degree turn and the other is...

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

I have been looking for an AWD Magna/Verada for a little while now but can't seem to find any... Anyone got any tips on where to look in Melbourne? So far I have tried a few mitsu dealers and looked around on drive/etc.

What is your average fuel Consumption on your AWD magna/Verada. I looking at replacing my FWD manual TJ with a Zen purple AWD TW VRX and would like to know what people get on average City/Hwy or tank wise All help would be great thanks Brett:happy:

Has anyone had any issues like gearbox or drivetrain problems with this series magna(TJ-TL)? Thanks lads!

I drove my KH to work today, while the AWD is still at the repairers, and wow what a difference in the experience. "chalk and cheese" doesnt even begin to cover it. The KH is near silent and smooth as silk. Taking off is smooth abd ditto for pulling up. This is the Verada experience i remember...

Hi guys, my next mod is a rear sway bar, and I can't see a Sway Bar thread in the AWD section, so maybe this can become a repository for valid info - eg: opinions, experiences, sources of products and prices. Below is my story, but first some specifics which I hope to update with latest...

Does anyone have any info on what to look for in regards to turbo charging or supercharging my Magna has anyone done this and can give some advice thanks for ur help

Attention all "AWD's" if you use a different brake pad other than standard, coul you please tell me the characteristics of the pad, also brands and part numbers. Looking to get something not as dusty as the ferodo's to suit the new 4000 series slotted rotors l recently acquired. Thanks heaps.

Hi all Have just joined AMC and seen some fantastic car. I was hoping to get some advice . My car is the following 2005 GTVi AWD with 100k on the clock, the other day the gear box was hunting for gears, there was a whineing sound. I took it to the Mitsa dealer where the car has been service for...

I'm curious about the broken wave spring issue as discussed here. Let's see if we can get some stats from those who have experienced this. Poll open to all gens and not just AWD Please post your comments in the other thread. fixed poll. You can vote more than once if applicable. Choose...

Hey Guys, Just brought myself a shiny red awd magna vrx 2004. I have been reading thru endless post about them, but there a some grey areas, that i would like cleared up. I'll break it down into different headings, i want people who own or worked on these cars that actually know what their...

Noticed the other day that there are a couple of leaks in both rocker covers. Not seeping, just a show of black "powder" stain in those areas. I was surprised as the KH has no visible leaks after 200,000 k's and the AWD has only done 40. Is there much work in replacing these? I notice the...

Question for the AWD owners about overtaking. When going to overtake at high speed (aprox 100 kms) when I put my foot down the auto will kick down what feels like a couple of gears (so to 3rd?) causing the RPM to then rapidly increase to near redline (6000 rpm). The actual speed pickup is slow...

EDIT: Please, don't post spam/crap/pointless messages. I'd like to seriously brainstorm these ideas and I value the experience and help of AMC members. "You hoon" is not helpful, so please don't say it. Hi guys, Firstly, the legal stuff - I'm not condoning, promoting or participating in...
