Recently my TS has had a running temp between 1/4 - 1/3 of the gauge. Typically it would run exactly at 1/2 once it has warmed up. If I turn the car off (on acc) the temp will climb back up to 1/2 but as soon as the ignition is turned back on it will begin it's descent to 1/4-1/3. Is this kind of...

At 397000 k's the head gasket is finally leaking. The water level suddenly dropped and the oil is starting to turn brown/milky. Before getting down to changing the gasket I'd like to try (I'd prefer to do the gasket when the weather is a bit warmer) an additive in the water. From reading there...

Can anyone advise the correct diameter of inserts for left hand engine mount and right hand transmission mount of 4 cylinder TR/TS models? Various sellers on ebay are showing different figures.

I need to drive from Adelaide to Sydney in my 91 KR auto, I have serious doubts that it can make it that distance without something dying on me in the middle of nowhere. Can anyone tell me just how resilient a 6G72 is, I just bought the car for rather cheap so i don't know its history such as last...

Hi Guys, new here. My Uncle who has a bit of a junk yard around his house gave me a 94 V6 Manual Magna. unfortunately it isnt running, but we will get to that. Are the V6 Manuals rare? Is it worth persevering to get it running? Story goes along the line of, it was on the highway and just...

Want a really good car polish? Easy on, easy off, even in full sun. Synpol .... it's German. Has Carnauba wax .... much the same as Mother's, M-Ron glass etc, only better. If the paintwork is reasonable to start with, it will give a shine like it's wet. Not cheap, around $40.00, but a little...

G'day all, had a couple of strange things happen lately with my TS 3.0 ltr manual wagon. No big deal, just thought I'd put it in the forum, might help some-one out. 1. Returned to the car, parked in Bunnings car park (luckily, not my driveway), saw about 2 lts of new engine oil under the car....

Just wondering if anyone knows whether the v6 and 4 cyl trans coolers are the same or different?

94 TS Executive wagon 3ltr V6 5 speed manual. Using the key, the RHF door will lock and unlock all 5 doors. The LHF will unlock all, but lock only the LHF door. Is this normal?

Just filled my KR with some oil, as you do. Checked the dipstick as i was filling it and there is no reading on the dipstick, i stopped filling it with oil as i discovered the dipstick wasn't giving a reading. There is no light on the dash indicating i'm low on oil, and there is no sign of a leak...

When doing a lot of work on a car it helps to have it semi permanently raised. The car is very heavy, read deadly! It must be on a stable stand. Level and on recommended hoist points. Ground that might be stable when dry can be dangerous when wet. 1. conccrete pads to make a sloping...

Hey guys, I have a 95' 4 cyl TS manual Magna, which is having a slight (potentially large, depending on feedback!) issue. When the car is well and truly warmed up, it will vibrate on acceleration, this is acceleration only. I can sit there and pin-point when the engine is putting force to the...

Hey everyone, I'm installing a reversing camera and I need to find the right wire for the reversing lights so the screen will switch to the camera view. I need to find the right colour wire. Does anyone know which one it is? I found the right fuse but can't get behind the back of it. thanks

Just asking to see if anyone knows if a KR Verada has a diagnostic port or if it even has at diagnostic port?

Mitsubishi magna 94 se ts auto v6 had a small oil leak just purchased the car the previous owners said from front gasket?

Have a '95 TS executive suddenly won't even crank over (checked starter motor/fuses/battery/all the usual things OK) Suspect the immobilizer is not sending code, will check wiring etc, but I've read on these forums that the factory immo won't stop the motor cranking. Does it just kill the ignition...

Why is it my cars never seem to have simple problems? Car is a 1994 TS Magna V6 auto. Car died on me on my way home from work one morning. My initial diagnosis was a fuel issue, given the way it died, and upon further testing found I wasn't getting any fuel to the fuel rail. The fuel pump relay...
