Hello, today there was a bad awakening for me and my wife. In autumn last year we had bought a Colt CZC, EZ 2009. So far everything was ok with the car, for two weeks, however, the car is wet in the morning when it rained inside on the driver’s side. On the next rain ride it is noticed that in fact when the window is closed, water is invading somewhere on the upper window frame and running down the window and door inside. Also, wind noise indicates that there is The local Mitsubishi dealer here in Münster said that it is not necessary to re-set the window, but to install new sealing rubbers. Price incl. installation should move around the 500-600 €! However, a spare part with part number MN301524 (old number, or MN301777 (new part number) is no longer available and is no longer produced. Therefore, the car can not be repaired. An old version is not available. In addition to the trouble that the spare parts supply for a 10 year old vehicle is already being adjusted, I hope that someone can give me a tip on how to get the window sealed. In Ebay/Ebay classifieds I did not find out and also a googel search did not yield any sources for the window seal. I already played with the thought to locate the leak precisely. and then apply a rubber patch from a bicycle tyre repair kit there, hoping that this thickening is enough to close the gap between the rubber and the window. However, I still shy away from making the leak more difficult for fear. However, the spot cannot remain untreated, since a cloth placed between the door and driver’s seat is soaked on the ground the next morning and starts to smell unpleasantly. I really hope that someone here can help me with one or the other tip.

It is worth repairing the clutch
My girlfriend has been the owner of a 20-year-old Mitsubishi Space Star for a year. Since she doesn’t have much money, the purchase of these cars for 300 € made sense, because she needs a car for work. The car was driven solidly this year, we had 700 € at repair costs so far. Now I wonder if this is going on so uncomplicatedly, or if at some point bigger repairs come (coupling, timing belts). Small things are already broken. in the wobble contact, the radio has broken the power stage (material costs 200 €). Do you have any idea what else can come up with? Maybe she should exchange the car for a younger one after all, but she doesn’t want to spend more than 3000 €.

ABS Sensor Alternative
Hello dear ones. My name is Thomas and I’m new here. I have almost no idea about forums. So don’t be angry with me if I don’t stick to the customs. If this happens to me, I’d be happy if you would draw my attention to it 😉 Now to my problem. I have a Mitsubishi Lancer V Station Wagon. A combo with automatic g-drives. Year of manufacture 01. 2000. Key numbers: 7107/253. Engine capacity and power: 1.6i 113 HP. A GLXI. The ABS sensor is during the wheel When trying to remove it before the repair, the carrier plate disengaged from the ABS sensor which was heavily rotted in the hole. Since then, it has been dead. No resistance can be measured anymore. Probably the coil is defective. I don’t get a new sensor via the accessories. Only for the Lancer 6 and for the Lancer 5 only for the rear right and only from year 06. 2003. Mitsubishi wants to have 232€ for the sensor. Since after expensive repairs someone has already driven me twice, h With the previous repairs I would then be at over 1000€. I buy it from Mitsubishi. But first I would like to ask if someone knows if an ABS sensor from another Mitsubishi Lancer could fit. If the plug is different, I can cut it off and connect it directly to the cable. If the sensor is a little longer, I can certainly also lower it with washers. I would like to find answers to these questions. I’m so happy.

Battery for Space Star select +
I don’t think I’ll need a new car battery for the next 5 years, but I still want to know for the sake of interest which battery, preferably Bosch battery, would be suitable for this vehicle? If you had a link to where to buy and see the batteries with dimensions and as a start stop would be really great. I find the original battery quite high. Is there actually German batteries that could be installed immediately from the dimensions? Thank you for your effort Greetings Hans In the picture the original battery

With rust to the TÜV
Moin, do I have a chance with the bike running during the main examination? How are your experiences in this regard and who has had this repaired? So this is the only lack that caused me to break my head. Except for a defective fuel pump, a missing tank filler and a holed pre-muffler pipe nothing should stand in the way of the main examination. I’m just not sure if I repair everything except the bike running around then with the rust after all no new badge What would you do? Greeting dor ponti

New Space Star, sometimes with, sometimes without a navigator, sometimes with, sometimes without a rear view camera
My wife has a Space Star Select+ CVT at the Mitsubishi dealer. From a pre-order of the dealer of several vehicles, is to be delivered next week. The car we drove to the test, according to papers 3 months old and 7000 km on the clock. Also a Select+ CVT. With this was Navi on board, but no return camera. The car in the shop itself is only two days, also a Select+ CVT. With the exception of car color, it looks the same optically. Why with the vehicles Select + since 2022 no more Navi than standard equipment is available, could not be told me. According to the configurator so also not available in the variant. Wherewith the monitor is available. Could the “Extra” navigation be only missing software and and probably GPS building block missing? Can you retrofit such a thing yourself ?

Mitsubishi Colt czt
Hi people I drive a colt czt. he has 150 ps series and I would like to make an increase in performance to approx. 190-200ps. I would let that be done in a professional tuning workshop. they have in common that I can drive 200ps without any technical changes on any case, so without motor or gearbox to change something. this company would make the increase in performance via a mapping, so by optimizing the software. I apparently need to improve the performance the Japanese motors can apparently tolerate a lot when it comes to something like that. however, the durability of my motor is also very important to me, or I don’t want to wear it out too quickly or overload it. I know, if you change what the performance is, of course, the veil is also higher but I prefer to be more careful and rather ask in the round. someone here knows about these motors and can tell me what to watch out for should? is basically advised not to do that or does it really not if I stay in the ps frame? thank you for your reply
