    I looked on Mitchell ProDemand from my work and it's not even updated to include the 2017 model. Sorry, but I can't help ya there.

    I'm suspecting you're looking at the one on ebay for a 17'. If you search car-part.com, there's some listed for 14 and 15 for $100 or less.

    The 2014 & 2015 use part 1540A379. I haven't found one for the 2017.

    Intake Manifold Part # 1540A379 for 2014 Mitsubishi Mirage DE 1.2L

    Why not just tape over the hole?

    It doesn't work with mobile site...when you get on there from your phone, click on upper left and click desktop site.

    I cannot copy and paste from the site since it uses live updates.

    Hope this screenshot helps.

    Did you install it? If so, did you put anything on it for heat transfer? I ask because I have the same one and that's a scary situation (it couldve burned your garage down)

    I emailed Carpart about a month ago, telling them about Mirage only being on the full site. They thanked me for the info, and I guess that's as far as it got.
    I think everyone one here should email them, (the webmaster) and ask why there's no Mirage on the mobile site. If enough people bombard them, maybe something will happen this time.
    Who's with me????? Let's do this.

    I just emailed them again.

    I followed your link, and it says that it does not fit my vehicle. I have a 2014 ES.
