At what temperate do the fans kick in on a KJ2? And how does this correlate to transmission temperature, if at all? I have recently installed an ATF cooler and noticed on highway trips the cooler is warm to the touch (seems about 40C to the touch) whereas after traffic driving the cooler is...

. SOLVED - SEE POST #10 Hey everyone It seems I've had a poor run of luck at the moment with my 02 TJ, and keep having issues coming up :(

Hi All, Over the last 2 days my TJ magna has been playing up in idling even when warm. It sits on about 500-600 rpm normally and is a little rough but copable (doesn't threaten to stall or anything) but yesterday morning I started it and it jumped up to 1500 as per normal, but immediately...

Sorry for such a dumb sounding question.... Im trying to remove the shroud behind the steering wheel in order to replace a dodgy wiper stalk Ive removed the 3 screws from the underside of it, then I assumed it would just pull apart Well ive tugged and pulled and yanked harder than a...

Hi, I've got a problem with the electrics in my driver's electric seat in my TW VRX. The seat goes backwards, up and down without hesitation but it just doesn't go forward at all. I've known this since I bought the car but the guy I purchased it from was almost the same height as me so it...

Can you tell me whether I can fix a loose power window button (front passenger), The window winds up & down fine but the button is very loose so I have stopped the kids from using it just in case I can't get it up one day. Do I need to replace the whole window button section or can I just see...

After parking my car at the oldies for a week or so whilst i was on holidays they found a puddle of red coloured fluid under the car about 6" in diameter. Immediately i thought of ATF, so I attempted to check it by parking the car on the flat in my driveway after driving home from work (fully...

Hi Guys, As the title says, I've just had the engine replaced in my Verada. With the old engine, I had a surging problem when running on petrol but not LPG. The car would surge when it hit around 3500 RPM and would completely lose power. Even when gradually building up to 3500 RPM it still...

Yesterday I was playing around in the dash getting ready to wire up a fancy smancy new cigarette lighter that has completely different wiring to what is normally found in a Mitsubishi. It's a "Valeo" normally found in Citroens, Renaults, etc... Before the new lighter got anywhere near my Magna I...

Does one mount normally fail before the others on third gens? Just noticed RHS mount is cracked. How likely is it all 4 need replacing? Kelpro have options for some of the mounts (either complete mount or insert). They however do the LHS mount in rubber for the complete mount and only in PU in the...

Hi all, my name is Matt - if some of you guys have some time Id like a little advice :) I have a 2004 Magna Wagon TL with some auto transmission problems. From what I have read searching this forum it sounds like it could be the wave spring - I have no reverse and in drive after 10 minutes...

My father inlaws 2001 Magna transmission lost all drive and he was told the transmission was bugged. He fitted a second hand trans from a car that he saw drive into the workshop for removable but the car still has the same fault, is there a sensor or something like that that can stop the...

I recently changed insurance companies. After receiving the paperwork I noticed they added the car as a KL instead of KJ since the year of the car is 2003. Would this cause issues? I prefer the higher market value of the KL personally
