    Yesterdays service and todays repairs are now done.

    The servicing was - for once - fairly painless, although i did get the brake fluid flushed.

    Today the car went to Fulcrum for the rack mount and front sway bar bushes. They were going to replace the link bolts but after pulling them out, cleaning and inspection, declared them fit to reuse.

    The front end feels much more positive as a result.

    About the only issue not addressed was the afm, which turned out to be the wrong part. Which is annoying. And the car has started stalling again at idle when well and truly hot.
    Lamenting the loss of Australian manufacturing.

    1998 - 2005 Mirage - still missed
    2005 - TL AWD Magna still paying for upkeep

    Pre `98 - non Mitsis including two Fords, a Toyota and a Daihatsu

    I strongly recommend all Magnas/Veradas(the youngest of which - 2005 TW/KW - have to be almost 14 years old at a minimum) have these procedures carried out.

    I did my sway bar bushes at home myself, and had a complete brand new genuine AWD rack(which includes new mounts) and outer tie rod ends installed and power steering fluid replaced at MitsFix last November.
