Mitsubishi lancer 2008 radio

hi, I have a Mitsubishi Lancer 2008 and looking to get music playing. I just figured out how to make the bluetooth function of the car work (found a small manual hidden about it lol) and for some reason the sound doesn't play as expected like when it comes from the radio. (sht quality and low volume) Now the dashboard shows ACS off and I can't figure how to turn it back on. There is a ACS off button but I tried clicking it, holding it and doubke clicking it but it won't turn on? The manual doesn't bother to mention how to.

I can already connect my phone through audio RCA sockets (can't believe there is an actual RCA to usb C cable lol) but I want to use the bluetooth function if possible.

Need some help

This appears on my 17 Lancer SEL now after disconnecting and reconnecting my clockspring. I was replacing my OEM Lancer steering wheel with an OEM Evo wheel along with an evo clockspring. I disconnected the negative terminal on the battery as per usual and did the wheel/clockspring swap, turned on the engine and that appeared. I decided to go back and reconnect the old wheel/clockspring just to see and the ASC message is still there. I read on some forums that I would need to go to a dealership to reset some stuff which costs a lot to do. Any ideas?

2013 lancer engine swap?

Hi, I’ve been doing some research recently and I’m having trouble finding a conclusive answer. I have a 2013 Lancer SE. it has the 2.4L with I believe the CVT. I would like to know if I can upgrade the engine and transmission to something more powerful, and if so what are my options. I know a lot of people say “just buy an evo” but we all know how pricy that can get and I would like to see what I can make of this lancer. I’m open to any and all suggestions.

Mitsubishi Colt Barnfind (Netherlands)

Mitsubishi Colt 1.2 automatic from 1983. It has been in storage for about 18 years. Engine oil, transmission oil, and brake fluid have been replaced, and the alternator has been refurbished. The body and engine are in quite reasonable condition for its age.

The engine runs, but only when the choke is engaged; otherwise, it won’t keep running.

Originally a Dutch car, with original booklets. 86,000 km.

A great opportunity for enthusiasts looking for a unique classic car.

In the rare color ‘Texas Gold’. https://link.marktplaats.nl/m2228027959?utm_source=ios_social&utm_medium=social&utm_campaign=socialbuttons&utm_content=app_ios

Diamond care warranty

Wondering what anyone's experience with the diamond care warranty was. Bought an outlander, and the dealership is giving me the option of upgrading to the extended warranty prior to pickup. They're offering it for 2500CAD.

Want to buy an mitsubishi evolution iii

Hey guys, I'm looking at buying myself an evo 3, my favourite evo of all time. I've been looking into bits and pieces but I can't find a whole lot of info online. I'm in Australia so ideally I'd like to buy one in Australia, or import from Japan. I'm not looking at it right now but just want to see if anyone has any experience with the evo 3, costing to buy as well as experience with importing these kinds of cars to au.

2013 Evo X GSR Idle Issues - Vac/Evap Leak

Just purchased a 2013 Evo X GSR 160k miles. Prev owner was by the shore so it's a little rusty (reason why I got a good deal). Car starts up fine and runs fine, no noises from engine.

Previous owner did add some modifications (AMS Downpipe, AMS Intake, Ivey Tune, Exhaust)

I did buy the car with an idle issue. The idle jumps/ bounces erratically (posted video), and it can stall sometimes. I've noticed that there's a big vacuum / evap leak from one of the lines being disconnected under the intercooler piping (photos, videos).

Does anyone have an idea what this vacuum line is or what it's called. And is there anything else that I should check for ? I know she’s a little rough, planning on doing some maintenance items right away.

Writing in this page to get some help. Can provide more info as well.

Mitsubishi Outlander used question

I was looking at a 2023 Outlander SE anniversary edition for around 20.5k. With around 47k miles. It looks like it may have sold. They have another on their site, a 2022 Outlander SEL for 21k with 67k miles. I'm not great with cars, but the extra miles concerns me. For essentially the same price. Is that too many miles? And is the SEL better than the original 2023 I was looking at.

Upgrading from 2009 Lancer ES Sedan to 2017 Lancer ES Sport - First impressions

So after my Evo dreams were slashed by the misso I've gone and bought the sensible upgrade to my bulletproof 2009 Lancer ES (235,000km odo) in the form of a 2017 sport lancer (auto CVT). Got super lucky with a mint condition low kms model and thought I'd do a write up for anyone in here considering the same upgrade.

Front comparison

First off, the interior has all of the improvements you'd expect. AC stronger with better modes, reverse camera works great, stereo system sounds excellent, all of the regular bells and whistles are there. The interior hasn't changed that much as per the standard Lancer philosophy, there's some nicer chrome trim on the panels and general quality of life improvements. The cupholders are shallower for some reason and the plastic of the cabin tends to vibrate like a phone ringing if you're playing music loud; aside from those small things, everything interior wise feels like a big upgrade which I was impressed by considering it's really the same bones. There's the black edition lancer available which adds red trim to everything, not a fan personally so this is as good as it gets. Overall really happy with the interior and user experience.

Rear comparison

Driving experience wise, as you'd expect it's similar to ever other Lancer in terms of handling and feel. I found the suspension particularly improved compared to the 2009 ES, brakes are grippy, a lot of the driving experience is improved but it feels like most of the work went into the engine technology and the one thing this car does obscenely well, which is the fuel eco. Not much to complain about there, it's a Lancer, if you've owned one or driven one you'll know what you're getting into. There's improvements look wise with the daylights (last slide) at night which look sick, FMH headlights, and a plate backlight, I'm undecided on the chrome elements in the front bumper but for the most part I love how this car looks.

For the transmission in the room: My review of the CVT. This is the first car I've owned with a CVT, and I heard many times over how slow it was, how unreliable, etc all of the usual controversy that comes with messing with the 4b1 engine. My experience has been the CVT isn't slow, but it is very inconsistent in terms of throttle control. I'm not a mechanic so someone can let me know if it's the ECU or CVT itself to blame, but holy shit sometimes this thing flies to 0-60kmh and sometimes you depress the pedal and get almost no response, particularly up hills or in the 40-60kph range. It's gotten bad enough I've considered switching into sport mode to make overtakes or get the engine to grunt when I want it to. There's definitely merit to the complaints of sluggish power response on a car that's slow but intended to feel sporty. Just something to take into account if you're looking to upgrade into the CVT series. Or, just get a manual.

My to do list with this car:

  • Some nice 17inch rims
  • Better tyres
  • Throttle controller so I can press the pedal and the engine does something 100% of the time

That's it. not going to mess with the platform. Really happy with how it looks, just want it to look a bit nicer.

Magna Swap

Bit of a cursed one for you guys but anyone know if TK/TL and later AWD systems will bolt into a TJ Magna?

Have the potential to get my hands on a pretty clean TJ Magna and I'm familiar with a manual swap for em but don't wanna go down the path of making a rear subframe for AWD.

Cheers if anyones got anthing.

MMCS question

Hi all, I have a 2013 Diesel Outlander, and I'm wondering if I could download the files from HERE and upload them on the MMCS card from there. I know it says it's only for electric, but I'm just wondering if I could still do this. Thanks
