Does the 4G93 GDI share similar issues as those in the Cedia's 4G15?

Secondly, which is better and why, between a 05 fielder wagon and d 04 Touring Turbo lancer wagon?

tnx

that loud bang that you hearing when u hit a pothole is teh shock

it doesn't drop fast enough to absorb the impact

i'm guessing that shock absorber was changed - had this problem when i changed shocks on my CK and didn't use teh OEM recommended, but a similar fit KYB

as for the oil shocks

i believe that teh stock shocks are gas

the CK's came with front gas and rear gas-oil

the cs should be all gas

check someone in a parts place that has a KYB catalog they can match your mitsu numbe ron teh shocks to a KYB number so u can buy the KYB replacement taht is exact as oem

doubt that it was gas-oil in front

My CK was stock gas in front

so CS should also be gas in front

gas rides very smooth - stock smooth once u re-use the correct model gas shocks

i will see if i have the OEM KYB number for teh CS3

I will advise against going by agarage and telling them - use whatever, that is a sure way to get what someone else wants on YOUR car

u ususally don't get good work when u do that

and if they lowering, is not gonna be stock ride quality after

Great thread going on here, ive read every page. I have a 4G15 GDI CS2.

First question i have is about the engine oil grade. Im currently using Castrol 15w 40 but i see that you all use 15w 50. This manual here recommends 40 grade oil for tempretures over 30 degrees.

www.zabatt.com/images/product%20manuals/0C1947.pdf

So should i switch or not?

After reading about the K&N filters i decided to try them so i went to car botique and brought both oil and air frop in filter. I like the air filter because instad of buying a new one every 2 months or so you just have to take it out and clean then pop it back in pretty cool.

But the oil filter had me wondering what is the difference in the Fram oil filter which costs 20tt and the k&n filter which costs 95tt?

ZeroOne, i use 10w30 Mobil1 Shocked

as thin as it is, i fine its the best oil to match my car and driving habits.
ive had no regrets.

other GDI drivers use other grades as well.

wrt the k&n, just follow the instructions on the k&n site about cleaning.
YOU DONT WANT TO OIL THE WRONG SIDE! not with this gdi engine.

wrt the oil filter ive seen at least 4 fram filters for my engine,
it all comes down to grip and volume with those.
wrt k&n vs fram i not too sure, always used fram.

10w30

your probably the only one using a grade that fine well except for those racing men.

i use 10/30 mobil also in my ck4 / 4g92 sohc..

only thing having the oil that thin is that after a cpl days of lead footing, ur oil level will drop.. cause: blow by.

if thats a non issue for u i say why not.. i punish that engine and its very faithful.

others here can attest to that ...... right? idlemind, Wink
