Finally, the transmission was replaced with one brand new. Picked up the car today. The handling now makes me remember a bit the way it drove when it was new. Expectedly, there's more torque on low...
Another update.
Transmission is being installed and possibly I'll pick up the car this week, after being with the dealer more than a month already.
Next thing you know the Ministry of Truth kills your car because because they deem your driving hateful.
Let's Go Brandon
The empty bar starts blinking when there are 1.8 - 2.2 gallons left. At around 0.7 g the engine may not start when cold. Don't ask me how I know that.
The other day purposely estimated to drive the tank as low as possible. My previous calculation that the empty bars start flashing when there's almost 2 gallons left matched the refill amount of 8.8...
Inspected all teeth on the ring gear. All good.
Now I'm trying to find a fitting starter brush kit because these ones look short to me already.
The cam fits completely behind the mirror. I could have placed it further behind but then it would have been hard to operate the controls.

I installed this Lecmal-branded model back on 2015 and has been working acceptably. Today arrived a newer version that I bought for another car. In my Mirage the USB cable runs the same path you...
Yeah, all that washer does practically is prevent the resonator from falling off the engine as it holds it very lax.
I noticed increasing rattling/roaring from the engine which -interestingly- was a bit worse when the engine was warm. Taking a close look and touching here and there under the hood, I found that...
My car started doing that a few months ago right after replacing the CVT fluid at 36K miles. Used Mitsubishi's J4 and the level checks fine when hot and cold.
Only couple of things I can think of...
I agree with Cobrajet. The cabin pressure acts against the door when closing it if all other doors are shut and windows up. Leaving the climate control air recirculator in the open position helps a...
Changed the fluid today as brakes felt definitely spongy and it was long due anyways. Started with passenger rear and the first ounces of fluid concentrated a faint brown color in the bottom that...
Replaced fluid yesterday at 36K with Mitsubishi's CVTF J4 ($18.5/qt). The old fluid came out opaque green and the new one had a faint blue-gray color. With the front driver side jacked up, the pan...
This is how it looked in my girlfriend's Camry last year:

Have you called Mitsubishi directly?

Are you sure that all other fuses are ok?
Is the beep literally constant or do you mean the intermittent warning chime?
I don't know if this mechanic noticed that my dash cam was on while he disparaged my Mirage. Yesterday I dropped it at the shop for a routinary balance and alignment.
Looks like he was less than...
Awesome job! Hopefully Mitsu will correct the problem so that this thread doesn't go out of control like the original one, ha, ha.
This is my third winter driving with my Mirage. Here in Rochester NY we get tons of snow from the Great Lakes. The first couple of winters were fine, but this one I notice that the car tends to slide...
They all are, otherwise they would be out of business.
Same here. Was seriously considering the Spark until took a look at their forum. I'm no cars expert, buy tons of complaints about engine problems made cross the Spark out.
