Hi there, this is my first post on this forum and tbh im really noob with cars i know barely anything.
I bought an 1998 RVR Automatic not long ago and it was running fine till I took it on a 2 hour drive down south of where I live where I had to go through about 40 mins of windy hills.
About half way into the hills the engine light came on the dashboard which started to worry me further when the engine started to lose power, the car stayed in 2nd gear going up hills that weren't too steep flooring it doing 60km/hr the muffler and engine started to umm.... "putt putt" a bit and rev really weirdly as if gaining and losing power
Sorry thats the only way I can think of how to describe it, I can help with any further questions. After I got back home and turned the car off for a while and went for a drive later the engine light no longer comes on but I am still having problems with the engine/muffler
If anyone can help me identify the problem or help me fix it I would greatly appreciate it =)
THANKS!

Well this I am finding really frustrating to the maximum.
I recently bought my RVR from a private guy in Queensland and it is currently registered in QLD. Before purchasing I rang the RTA and was told all I would need was proof of purchase and a blue slip. All OK.
Get it back home to NSW, take it down to my mechanic to get blue slip and he tells me the bad news when I went to pick it back up.
RTA wont allow him to give me a blue slip unless I have a "Consumer Information Notice". Nobody, other than the RTA even knows what this is.
I rang the guy I bought it from and he doesn't have one.
I rang the importer and they don't know what it is.
My mechanic doesn't know and wont do the blue slip without it.
Rego runs out in two weeks.
Surely it should just be a straight transfer from QLD to NSW - it's already registered so must comply with Australian Standards.
It has a purple import plate in the engine and my mechanic says they are usually green.
Anyone have any ideas because soon it will just be an expensive guest in my garage!

I'm considering buying an Expo LRV (non-turbo) 5-speed, 4 cyl, FWD. I'd like to know if you can drop a turbo engine in these? I read somewhere that galants and 6-bolt eclipses are the same but AWD...
so, can i do this or not, because the expo LRV I'm looking at will need an engine swap very soon...
thanks guy...

I am just about to buy a 1996 RVR Super Gear RVR Turbo, manual. Can anyone give me some advice on maintaining this vehicle. I have read extensively and have purposely gone for a manual over the auto due to the transmission problems. It has 17" rims so I guess my tyres are going to be expensive. It has 145,000kms - should I be getting the timing belt done? Any advice or things I should look out for would be greatly appreciated. I am in Australia

1994 rvr sports gear.
I have seen on previous posts about aircon issues that both the radiator fans should come on when the aircon runs correctly. Neither of these fans seem to work for me. Does anyone know what fuse or relay these run from? Or even better, does anybody know of a simple test to find the source of fault? I have trawled through all the posts i could find for translations of the fuse box but had no joy, if anyone out there has an english version of which fuses and relays are which that would also be a big help.
thanks guys

Thanks to a tip from AutoGuide reader Peter Ms we have plenty more photos and some additional information on Mitsubishi's upcoming compact crossover. The new model will debut at the Geneva Auto Show in March and is expected to arrive shortly thereafter in North America, slotting in underneath the Outlander in the Japanese automaker's lineup. A leaked brochure for the new CUV, called the RVR in Japan and the ASX in Europe, gives a more detailed look at the CUV.
The car's interior is typical Mitsubishi, and we can see from the brochure that it comes with a push-button ignition, a large panorama sunroof and there's even an optional navigation system.
Cargo room doesn't exactly look plentiful, however, with just around 15 cubic feet behind the rear seats.
We like the little Mitsu's EVO-style look, but have to admit we're puzzled about the snorkel on the driver's side front fender.
In Europe the ASX will be sold with a turbocharged 1.8-liter diesel engine. It is expected to be powered by a naturally aspirated 2.0-liter 4-cylinder when it debuts in North America.

Heart broken to say I have to give up my RVR, does anyone know who would want it in the UK.
It has to go ASAP as sitting at the local garage in kent.
Some belt snapped which made timimg belt jump, timing belt fine but the valves are bent. Garage said 2 grand to fix. Would anyone be interested?
As i'm not mechanically minded I think it best to say goodbye as cant afford to pay out again in a few months if something else should go wrong.
Any ideas?
Is / was 1992 automatic turbo diesel with lovely curtains!

Hello. I have a RVR yr.95 and last week the timing belt broke, damaging the engine.
I have changed the damaged parts and the car is running now.
However, i feel the engine rattling and with an odd sound and also the 3rd gear ( automatic) is not going in.
Someone told me to do the calibration of the Timing belt.
What does that mean and will that solve my problem?

When I first had my RVR I was only given one key.
I was wondering whether it had remote control central locking.
Is there a way of finding out if I could get a remote key fob for the car?

i have recently purchased a mitsubishi rvr and it was about 6 weeks ago when i looked under the bonnet for fuses, that i saw the rad cap was perished so i went and bought a new rad cap and then that opened up a whole can of worms it seems that the new cap is causing it to overheat, and it now seems i have a big problem, as soon as i turn the engine over the water is shooting up to the radiator cap, the whole system is pressurising as soon as the engine is turning over.
is the headgasket gone or could it be a water pump problem any advice would be great.
another problem ive come across is the engine is not turning over from the key but if i bypass the key and use a high guage wire to the starter and then to the battery it will turn over and pressure up the pipes, i have carried out a pressure test and it held pressure ok. does anyone know what relays control the starter
thanks

Really guys?!? No one can help me out? I posted this a little while back but got no responses
"Hi guys, I'm a newbie but i did try to look through all the older aircon posts before staring a new thread... Like I said i have a 1996 RVR sports gear and I am experiencing problems with the aircon... can anyone tell me what the pressure should read when they refill the gas. I had some mechanics come and refill it but for some reason my AC is still blowing hot air. The Mechanics said that its probably because they didnt know how much the pressure reading should be and that if they put in too much they risked damaging the unit. They said that once it was at the correct pressure it would work fine. I'm new to these things so i have to ask: does that sound likely to you guys? And does anyone know what the pressure reading should be?"
Anyhwlp would be greatly appreciated, its hot over here and my car is boiling!

Good Day, i just discovered this Forum and took the time to browse through the different posts. First off, i'm a Mitsubishi RVR owner for the past 4 or so years. Its a Mitsubishi RVR 1995 Model, Automatic Transmission 2.0L Non Turbo engine. In that time period, the Automatic Transmission broke down 3 times. Why did My parents choose the Mitsubishi rvr as their vehicle of choice while searching for a vehicle on the internet? My guess is as good as yours.
The Tell Tale signs of the Transmission problems are obvious. Occasional slipping of gears that becomes more frequent until driving is impossible. i noticed that the the transmission used to break down after long journeys across the country. Not just once but over a period of time. why? That i will explain in a bit.
I'm not an Auto Mechanic, but Common sense and research does alot.
The Problem? In my research, i've found out from a couple of webcites and RVR owners around the world, that the Automatic Gearbox made from 1993-1996 was defective. How? The Cooling Mechanism inside the Transmission didn't work/Right. Thus, the transmission fluid would not get sufficient cooling and would eventually loose value(Most fluids in Engines/Transmissions has to be changed regularly because of that). The RVR was a special case. because the Cooling was Minute, the oil would cook and cook,,,,and cook...until the value was so low that eventually the mechanisms inside the Gearbox would start going bad some faster than others..thus causing slippage of clutches etc.(i'm not familiar with all of the different parts inside the Tranny). In my case, the Transmission went bad faster. Why? I'm a motor sport entheusias. Thus, i love fast driving, coordinated driving, races etc. The RVR is Clearly NOT the suitable vehicle for all of that.
So what would happen, when i ran HARD for sometime without servicing the transmission(my fault), it would start giving problems, usually would overheat and start slipping but it would happen maybe after a long run that would get the transmission EXTRA hot. Thus i'd have to get the vehicle towed back home.
The Remedy? The first time the transmission went bad, my dad sent it overseas, got it rebuilt and it was sent back. it worked for about a year and a half then went bad again. This time after being off the road for 7 months,(source problems) i bought a used Transmission from a local used parts agent. worked like a dream for about a year den went bad AGAIN.(SIGH..)This time it stayed down for 8 Months and i used another vehicle to get around. Finally, after a long wait, a transmission repair kit i ordered came. Gave it to my Mechanic, he delayed a couple of months before fixing. I finally got the RVR a couple of Days ago. Works great. What caused the Transmission to give up this last time?
---->I had a small tear on my chassis so i took the vehicle in to a Nissan Suzuki Dealership(bad idea)..i worked there at the time. They had to take off the Engine and Transmission to weld the chassis properly(there's a bunch of novice young guys working as Techs there.). They did. after i was given delivery of the vehicle i had a whole bunch of problems. First, some wiring was done wrong so in driving when i was to DIP on the x, the vehicle would suddenly go into neutral or slip. That was fixed(mix up in wiring). Next, the engine was on a side and the heating mechanizm on the engine touched the radiator fan. i was told that i had a bad engine mount. so i payed no mind(couldn't get the mount at the time). 3 months after, on a long journey, i noticed that SUDDENLY the "A/T TEMP" warning light on the dashboard came on(my island is VERY mountainous). 10 minutes after, the transmission started slipping severly. i had to tow the vehicle back to my home(50 minutes away).
What caused the Transmission to suddenly go bad after just 3 months fresh out of the Nissan dealership?(they claimed they did not interfere with the transmission. they just took it off with the engine and placed it back) i found out TODAY after i did a journey. about 30 mins into the trip, the vehicle suddenly started smoking. i stopped, checked under the hood and saw some splatters of oil around the tranny/bottom pan area..so i just figured the oil got hot and steamed. A bit more driving and i looked in my rear view and saw a trail of smoke. I looked into my dash and there was that A/T TEMP warning light again!!!!!! What is going on!!!! Anyways i opened the hood, looked around it and guess what?? Neither of the 2 Radiator Cooling fans are spinning! BINGO! the Transmission had EVERY reason to overheat 8 months ago. I figure that was ANOTHER one of the problems from the dealership. the fans were not connected. Anyways at that point the gears were going hay-wire, so i think the ECU went into safe mode(happened to me once b4) i'm stuck in 3rd gear. I let it cool down and i finally made it home. (My mechanic should be coming a little lata to check on it)
There's my solition for now. Get the Fans fixed and flush the Transmission every couple months to keep it going. but i think i'm going to buy a Manual Transmission and end ALL of the worries. The RVR is a GREAT vehicle and i love it. Anyone who wants to buy one, they need to be aware of the Auto Transmission problem on the 1993-1996 models. Buying a Manual or even a Turbo is good. Stay away from the Auto Transmissions.
Oh...the solution to the engine being on a side? The NOVICE guys at the Dealership installed the engine mount UPSIDE DOWN 180 Degrees. so the two bolts for the engine was further forward, thus the reason the engine HAD to come forward to fit. They Rectified that problem yesterday.
I hope some of the info i gave will be meaningful to any of you guys who own RVR's and those contemplating buying.
Peace out
Shreddaz.

Recently the RVR has been standing for about a month now and I have also noticed that the oil has been over filled on the last change by quite a lot

.
Any ideas what the black stuff is and does anyone know where the sump drain is?

I managed to damage the front motor mount on my '92 expo (don't ask, please), and need to find a new one - cheap - would rather not go to the dealer. Google provides almost no solid leads on this item. I haven't started calling the local junkyards in Seattle, since the last time I tried that I found no expos in the local area. Any ideas? Anybody out there have one cheap they want to get rid of? Any PNW local know where the local pacific northwest expo junkyard is? Thanks for any help you might provide.

Hi All,
This week my son's 1992 Summit Eagle developed a cracked bell housing this weekend. The car (engine, drive train, and all accessories) has 113K miles. We don't believe fixing the car is in our best interest; replacing just the bell housing without doing any other work probably isn't worthwhile; we don't have the energy right now to do a deep dive. But being from Colorado (Fort Collins) the body is straight and everything is rust free. There is only some body molding pieces missing and the interior is very useable. So we're in the a orthongonal position as the other EXPO parts car that is listed below (good body but crummy drivetrain). We too are trying to find a good home before taking the car to the junkyard. To bad we're not closer to the other car as someone could probably put the two together and wind up with reasonable transportation.
If anyone is interested please drop me a line at glgarlow@msn.com
Thanks
Greg Garlow
P.S. The car isn't roadable (the bell housing just spreads at the crack instead of disengaging the clutch); but is rollable.

I have a '94 Expo awd (2.4) that I need to have hauled off to a scrap yard in the next week or so, but would rather have it go to someone who can use the parts. Items of interest
are: head with valve job and new camshaft less than 20 k ago; new dist. with less than 10 k; rebuilt ps pump; new transfer case at 100k: rebuilt 5 speed also at 100 k ( car has
approx. 130 k ). Car is a non-runner but rolls so it can be easily loaded on a trailer.
I also have 3 volumes of the factory shop manual (all but trans) and a few new parts for sale (engine mounts). If this is of interest to you, please e-mail Mike at psks555@hotmail.

I have seen that some of the RVR have ground effects kits and heard rumors there is a place in Japan that specializes in aftermarket parts for the RVR, but it is an Japanese only site. I had looked into a place out of Australia also that could export to the USA, but the cost of shipping was twice as much as the parts themselves.
I know the 95-99 eclipse is 172.2" long, 68.3" wide and my 3 door Wagon/Van is 168.5" long, 66.7" wide, how hard would it be to make and eclipse/talon ground effects kit bumper/side skirts fit on the van?

Hi all,
my name is Kenny and i m new to this forum.Firstly i recently brought a 95" rvr sport gear /turbo and i got few question want to ask.
1.Will the temperature/compass/clock light up when u turn on the light ,because is very hardly can see during the night time.if it does which fuse does it connect to? or how to get it back working?

2.After a short drive from home to a supermarket (10mins), when i finish shopping i jump on the car and start it, there are two dash lights stays on after the engine started,
one is the battery and the other one is "A/T TEMP" and it will go after after 5 mins or so.

3. How can i turn on the light on the back bumper? i see bulbs inside but i just don't know how they can be switch it on!

4.Also there a button on the side on the turn signal switch, just wonder what does it do?when i press it it doesn't seem like doing anything.

i know some question is very stupid but if any one can give me a hint on what is happening/what is it that would be awesome:)
thanks
Kenny

Hi guys
I have a problem with my 92 expo.
1. dash lights dont always work. They work when they like to and when I turn my headlights on, it always goes off and never come on. From that point on it works when it feels like. Does that mean I have a short somewhere in the system or do I just change the dash light bulbs and I will be fine?
2. Problem with driver side automatic selt belt. It DOESNT WORK. The passenger side works.
On the driver side, I dont hear the motor working and the track where it buckles to is freely moveable which means that I can move it forward and backwards on the whole track.
NEED HELP PLEASE

The sound is like the compressed air rushing out from plastic can. It is from under hood. The brake works fine. the sound was heard once when car was slow down to the red light by releasing gas padel without brake, and was last until brake was applied. When the window is opened, the sound is loud enough so that it can not be ignored.

Hello, I've been reading through many old posts, and there is a lot of great information here, but unfortunately have not found a solution to my problem.
Summary:
1992 Mits. Expo
2.4 L automatic transmission.
174,000 miles.
I was driving about 50MPH when all of the sudden the vehicle acted as if it went into neutral. There was no clunks or other strange noises, and the transmission had not been having problems previous to this. I coasted to a stop, and tried cycling the shift lever through all of the gears including reverse, with the same outcome. The engine starts and runs fine, but I have no gears at all.
I towed the vehicle home and have tried the following with no success.
1. Checked the fluid level.
2. Dropped the pan and replaced the filter.
3. Checked the problem codes using a voltmeter. Am getting a 32 which is faulty MAP sensor. I thought it probably had nothing to do with the transmission, but decided to replace it anyway. When I went to the parts store, their computer says that there is no MAP sensor on a 1992 Expo?
4. I aslso found some information about reading the trouble codes for the transmission by placing the voltmeter across pins 12 and 6. I am getting a constant readout of quick pulses which indicates no code present.
5. Removed valve body and cleaned and verified operation of all the spring actuators.
6. Checked fuse for Transmission Control Unit.
I did read somewhere that the inhibitor switch can cause this, but don't know how reliable this is, and how to test it.
I am pretty much out of ideas, if you have any please respond.
Thanks,
Jason

Hi
Kwik-fit in the UK are doing a £45 aircon gas & lubricant recharge at present. Cooler air-conditioning or your money back guarantee.
Only hitch is your car has to be on the system in store, if not you need to be able to tell them the weight of gas for your car. SOOo...
Does anybody know what the weight of gas should be for a 93 2 litre diesel rvr??
I'm sure they will ask me something else next time I go as well, so if any other bits of info you think I need then please let me know.
Hopefully this info will help some folks get a cheap recharge before this imaginary heat wave hits us

Hello I'm new & need help. Know nothing about cars! Typical girl!

I have 1993 K reg RVR. 2 litre exceed auto. In UK.
I have read through the other posts & asked at a garage but get confused
1st: I have no coolant whatso ever, what type should I be using? Have been driving about for a while without any, am i going to have problems when i finally do it?
2nd: Oil 10/40??? I saw a post where someone said it was fine to use, but also saw 5/???? mentioned.
Is it ok to go from one type of oil to another as I have no idea what the previous owner put in & need to top up?
3rd: Tyre pressure I was told by a mitsibushi garage to go 32psi in all tyres, but he said that was just a guess.
4th. How do i get it through the MOT? The emmissions are supposedly high & it kicks out black smoke, put a fuel cleaner in the diesel which seems to have helped, but was wondering if something like that would be good enough to get it through the MOT?
Any help would be great. Thanks

Where is the starter located? Underneath the engine?
The car can not start. Turn the key to "start", I can hear a short clicking sound from somewhere, parking indicator is off. However, no crank sound, the headlight does not dim either. Replace the ignition switch, no help. Doubt Starter Solenoid is broken.

Hi guys,
I'm new at the forum, so before anything is a pleasure make part of.
I'm having a problem with my RVR, the left break light is going off every time I use the break.
For exemple if the night lights are on, when i break the break light and the night light turn off, if the night light is not on the break light just don't goes off.
It's not fuses and i have no ideia what it can be, please if some one have ideia what it can be, please help me.
Thanks you all,
Icaro

hi,
what is the recommended spark plug for RVR 94 4G63 Non-turbo DOHC? According to the Space Runner manual it is NGK BKR5E-11. However, I tried this plug but it doesn't fit very well on my spark plug cable. The cable hole is bigger than the spark plug.
My old plug is bosch W78. It fits well but I think heat range is too cold causing my plugs black (coated with carbon).
Is there any effect of using a plug that does not fit well on the cable? I tried running the engine and it seems its ok.
Please advise.
Thanks.

Hi all,
May I know the part number of the the stock MAF sensor for a RVR 94 4G63 Non-turbo A/T? Im suspecting that I am not using the stock MAF that is why im running rich. Current MAF installed is 449 (E5T05371).
