The wire is the one on the lower screw post of the alternator NOT the wires with the clip on the end as that one is connected fine. If anyone has a picture of how the...

I have a 1997 Galant GDI VRG which has some intermitted problems and would like to use my diagnostic tool to diagnose, but my tool says vehicle is not responding. I cannot afford to buy the proprietory tool so i use a generic tool (OTC Genisys and EZ Scan also a Software type ELM327) no one in my small island has that tool. so can anyone tell me if it is possible to read my car codes and how?

Hello all I'm new to the forum
I have a few concerns about my 98 galant. The other day I was driving all was fine. I went to make a left turn. The turn sinal worked fine. When I went to turn it click back to its normal position but the blinker was still flashing. I thought perhaps it was a fuse and I changed it but it still is stuck. The right blinker doesn't do anything...

I have just bought a 96 Mitsubishi Galant VRG GDI.
At 100Klms/Hr and above it hesitates when accelerating. Then will have a rough idle.
The car has 75,000Klms on the clock and apart from this issue, is a sweet car inside and out.
Can anyone shine any light on this please as it spoils the drive.
Thanks in advance

I have a 95 Galant S and it has been running like a dream for me.
Recently it has developed a shimmy that only happens when I am accelerating in the range of 60-70MPH. Anything more or less and it ran smooth.
When I accelerate slowly through this range, the car does not have the shimmy. If I punch it through this range, there is no shimmy. Only when I do normal...

Hi everyone,
I have a prob with my viento 98 gdi galant. It makes a terrible grinding/screeching sound when i apply the brakes. I have replaced the brake pads, resurfaced the discs and even replaced the brake caliper but none of these has made a difference. Mechanics are stumped.

After my galant 98 ES jumped timing and started making terrible noise, my mechanic replaced and reset the timing belt and it started working fine. But since the CHECK ENGINE light has refused to go off. Secondly, the car most times idles around 400rpm and 600rpm and sometimes it idles around 700rpm and 900rpm. Does anyone have a clue to these problems?

Hi All,
As stated I have a 97 VRG Galant (4G93 1.8L GDI), Lately whenever I've been driving it around for long periods it starts to lose power and judders (Exhaust sounds like pop pop pop noises). I took it to my local mechanic and they ran a diagnostic on it and it came up with "No. 4 Coil Pack Problem" I bought a new coil pack and I assume I replaced the right one.

I only had it a day and the tension on the timing belt went and I had to have the head replaced. Since then the heater and AC won't work. I have relpaced the heater/Ac control and checked all fuses. When you turn on the fan motor switch...

Hello to everybody. I'm a newbie. I have a 94 Galant Super Saloon with auto transmission. When I shifted to drive/reverse mode, the revs dropped to 600-700 rpm causing engine vibration and eventual shutdown.

I tired to increase the idle on my 1994 Galant and the head on the adjustment screw crumbled. Can the screw be replaced (preferable with a metal part this time instead of whatever that was made of)? Or any other suggestions, idle is running 500 and below right now.

So I have a 98 Galant, and for some reason the front windows will not roll down. the rear ones come done just fine. I'm assuming that there is a relay or some fuses in the equation that I just can't find. I've check what wiring that I can find, but I'm a bit stuck at the moment. Any help would be greatly appreciated

Here is the problem, drove the car on Thursday night without any problem, parked in front of the house. My wife turned on the car on Friday and called me saying that there was a strong noise coming inside the engine compartment on the driver side.

Have just obtained a 1996 Galant VRG (Japanese import into NZ). There are no manuals and everything is in Japanese. Does anyone know if/where the horn is?
Assume it's got one but just can't find it to operate it.
Found it - wire had broken off the terminal hence making it inoperable.

Hi everybody, I am new here. I have a 97 Galant, Only 76k miles. Now It is acting up. When the overdrive is on, it shiftes to neutral around 30 Mph and the check engine light is on. If I trun the O/D id off, it won't shift to the 4th gear. When I am driving at 60-65 Mph, the Rpm is at or over 4000.
What will be the negative effects if I keep driving with the O/D off?
