    Wonder why Unimo doesn't heed the instructions on the workshop manual issued by the manufacturer... that, too, for CY lancers apparently: they performed the fluid replacement as per the instructions on the workshop manual on @Sampath Gunasekera's CS
  2. Hyaenidae
    That's the capacity of the transmission. The workshop manual states the same: http://mmc-manuals.ru/manuals/lancer_x/online/Service_Manual/2015/23/html/M123100040094700ENG.HTM I guess the additional 1.3 liters is added (and replaced) in order to ensure a complete fluid replacement
  3. Hyaenidae
    But according to the workshop manual it should be about 9 liters ne http://mmc-manuals.ru/manuals/lancer_x/online/Service_Manual/2015/23/html/M123100100054400ENG.HTM @Sampath Gunasekera had mentioned that he bought 10 liters for his CS http://autolanka.com/forums/topic/18754-my-new-ride-mistubishi-lancer-cs1-glx-at-yom-2007/?do=findComment&comment=304459

    @trinity could you remember how many ltrs of transmission fluid was used?

    So, did some digging and this is what I found. Mitsubishi "F4A4" series of transmissions date back to 1996. This transmission has been used in many Mitsubishi models: FTO, Eclipse Spyder, Magna, Galant, Lancer, Space runner/Space star, Mirage, Carisma, Chariot Grandis, RVR, Pajero IO, Outlander, ASX, etc. Some Kia/Hyundai/Proton models and Chinese vehicle brands share this transmission and it's still being produced. Until 1999, F4A4 transmissions had 2 transmission fluid filters, an internal one and an external one; Mitsubishi reckoned that the "internal filter is just as good alone by itself" and got rid of the external transmission fluid filter. So the automatic Lancers don't have an external transmission fluid filter like most cars do. I'm not sure about CVT ones.

    Guys, is there a CY owner (AT) among us who got his transmission fluid replaced? Just look where the transmission fluid pan and the filter is... IDK much about transmissions TBH but it looks like the oil pan (26134) is mounted sideways instead of underneath the transmission assembly like other cars isn't it? Am I reading this wrong? And it looks like the torque converter housing has to be removed to access the transmission fluid filter...? (28020) Here's the link where I got the illustration from: https://partsouq.com/en/catalog/genuine/parts?c=Mitsubishi&ssd=%24*KwGRpbS6l-Xp8fHW_-Cyrcnd_frklZqXloSCjcvi3obAgJ-H2LbQk5T8lZOV5IXW1MrOgJ-EgeH8lrvWxIOAxsiBmIWFqaa78-6Tht4AAAAAI4uHIg%24&vid=0&gid=458&q=

    IDK really, am not a fan of SUVs and pickups... but a huge fan of Initial D so the Tofu delivery part made me watch (and share) the video ?

    Triton delivers Tofu! ?

    Yep, from 2012 onwards the 3ZZ-FE engine of the 141 got replaced by more economical 1ZR-FE engine. 2008 141s had the melting dashboard issue just as the JDM Axio of the same year - plus the AC compressor goes kaput after about every 60k-70k kms FD4s, solid cars, nothing wrong with them afaik except for the low ground clearance and relatively higher spare parts cost Why didn't you consider the Lancer CY (EX)? Almost all of them are agent-maintained thus have verifiable mileages and are still with their 1st or 2nd owner.

    3000GT split in half! She died saving her owner though. RIP

    TL is infinitely better than H-hub.

    True, true. Unlike CK, his heart is in the right place, he just made some ridiculous remarks back then, hence the minus reputation - but he's loved by all Autolankans and I'm sure everyone is happy to see him around. I know I am
  14. Hyaenidae
    He's like the Chandrika Kumaranathunge of AutoLanka - very active member once upon a time but drew ire from many members, was banished by mods for a short period of time once if I remeber correct, now he visits AL occasionally

    Try using a sticker remover product like this: https://www.daraz.lk/products/sticker-remover-450ml-i119142-s341790.html https://www.mydeal.lk/abro-sticker-remover-sr-200/

    What's more, that particular mixture of gas is cheaper to obtain than 100% nitrogen gas.

    An ownership thread! Woohoo!! hope you'll keep posting updates on this thread... and more pics are always welcome! The car certainly stands out, from the first look. How much of a difference does the mechanical changes make? Have you had a chance to drive an ordinary Aqua or an Axio/Allion/Premio to compare?
  18. Hyaenidae
    Manufacturer's recommendations for ATF should be listed in the owners/workshop manual, you'll be able to find it online

    For the CY, (I guess its as same as the CS) Position: 1 2 3 4 5 6 7 8 9 Example: C Y 2 A S R M H R First 2 positions are CY for all CY models Position 3 : Engine model If 3rd position is 1 - 1600CC engine If 3rd position is 2 - 1500CC engine Position 4 : This says it's a passenger car, hence all models have "A" on the 4th position Position 5 : Body type If position 5 is S - Sedan If position 5 is L - Hatchback / Sportback Position 6 : Transmission type If position 6 is R - Automatic If position 6 is N - Manual If position 6 is T - CVT Position 7 - Trim Level If position 7 is S - GLX If position 7 is M - GLS Position 8 - Emissions standard If position 8 is H - Euro 4 If position 8 is P - Euro 5 / Low Co2 standard Position 9 - Driving position If position 9 is L - LHD If position 9 is R - RHD

    It was your ownership thread which made me get the repair done post-haste; especially this post made by @Davy. UNIMO people didn't even notify me about the leak until I noticed it and asked about it myself. They were in the opinion that a minute leak like that doesn't warrant a repair.
  21. Hyaenidae
    This was some time ago, the car was about 3yr old when this happened: When rear brake drums were removed at the routine sevice it was revealed that one wheel cylinder has developed a minute leak from a rubber boot. UNIMO guys assured that it is negligible but I decided to get it fixed before the leak gets worse. Both rubber boot kits (left and right wheels) were replaced. Part: CUP+BOOT KIT, RR BRAKE CYL Part number: 4610A078 Labor Cost: Part Cost: (2 boot kits) Total : Rs. 6106.00 Both brake cylinders were bone dry on the last routine service (4th service since the repair) so the repair was a success ?

    Once she arrives we want a Swift RST blog like Matroska's civic blog... or a dedicated thread like Trinity's, with lots of pics ?
  23. Hyaenidae
    From what I gathered from their reviews the GT offered in US was ruined by its CVT. Comparing it with the Evo is just cruel ? But they do have fun with their non-Evo Lancers, check these out: 7:00 - 7:15 A chap from UNIMO once said they came across a 4B11T transplanted EX, I've never seen one though. I'd like to drop a 2L 4B11 and a manual tranny to a 1.5L and keep it as a fun daily runner someday, it's a bolt-on upgrade.

    Depends on the vehicle, can't generalize... It seems some export variants of the Swift are tuned differently than the JDM one - hence the difference in power and torque (I guess) When it comes to the Lancer the export version had entirely different engine options - ranging from 1.5L to 2.4L. In SL only 1.5L and 1.6L versions were offered brand-new by the authorized agent, 1.6L version has slightly higher specs than you mentioned (117PS and 154Nm)
  25. Hyaenidae
    What we have here is the export version, not the JDM one which came with a 2L engine (Galant Fortis)
