what fluids allyuh recommend for these cars

oil = Shell Helix Plus\Ultra

what about tranny fluid for th F101A CVT tranny?

Marct · Posted: Fri Sep 01, 2006 9:27 pm Post subject:

I use Castrol gtx on the 1st oil change since i bought it (roro).

about to change oil next week got the Castrol syn blend which worked great with my other 2 cars.

1st tranny oil change I used NS1, as Diamond motors (as usual) didn't have the mitsu tanny fluid.

Looking for the castrol or amsoil tranny fluid but can't find any.

the f5m42 may line up with a change to the flywheel

venum · Posted: Wed Sep 06, 2006 11:33 pm Post subject:

^^^ F5M42 may indeed be a better suggestion, with a change o teh flywheel

F5M41 will line up with same engine as some F5M42, with a change of flywheel

as with the CK4 Lancer MR (Manual)

Hey guys I ended buying one off these lancers (GDI) I got it in Tuesday it running nice holds the road good

But someone also told me that the engines give trouble is that true or is this just a rumor.

venum · Posted: Thu Sep 14, 2006 6:08 pm Post subject:

it's neither tru nor a rumor

GDI engines call for some special love and attention in certain areas

those who do not know how to deal with this, then call it trouble

maintain it well and you will have no trouble

TB tends to act up

all my pass cars were maintained to the fullest always took care of them but what areas need this attention.

Anyone done rear brakes conversation on their CS3A/CS2A Question

WTK

I don't like the responce I get from the car when I brake at high speed... the car kinda wobbles and the back sways like (like it wanna fishtail or spinout or something)

rainman · Posted: Tue Sep 19, 2006 7:05 am Post subject:

^^^i get that with mine too, but i also get it with a lot of ABS equipped cars.

as far as the rear disc conversion, i havent seen anyone doing this "yet".

fras · Posted: Tue Sep 19, 2006 11:20 am Post subject:

RainMan you think the rear disc would help Question

rainman · Posted: Tue Sep 19, 2006 12:17 pm Post subject:

generally; vibration when braking is an indication of warped rotors. options are to either have them re-surfaced or changed. adding brakes in the rear will not correct a problem in the front of the car. it is better to correct the problem in the front. before doing any modifications.

on another issue I know that the throttle body in the GDI sometimes give trouble is there any early warning signal that you could pick up on and how often would you have to service the TB to try and prevent anything like this occuring also where is the best place to do the service.

venum · Posted: Wed Sep 20, 2006 6:17 pm Post subject:

^^^ I think that a general warning sign is the apparent loss of power

but that is when it has already went bad and needs some attention

i had my tb repaired 3 times(free of course) before complaining to d man and he give me a new one.

I serviced my tb by an auto garage in claxton bay. R's Auto Diesel & Body Works. Doh mind d name he deals with all vehicles. tel 659-2017. guys name is Richard. warning signals would be engine reving without any input (gas pledal). this also happens while the throttle is it at a steady position but the car sort of jerks forward and back while accelerating. oh and rough idle. this idle is very noticeable believe me.
