I'm looking at purchasing a 2002 Lancer ES with 120k miles on it. How often does the timing belt need to be replaced? I've gotten too many mixed answers online, ranging from every 60k to every 105k miles. With this car being at 120k miles, what else might be involved in a tune-up? All I know about it so far is that oxygen sensors and catalytic converter have been replaced, at 100k.

I don't have an air compressor and no space to keep it if I bought one. On the other hand, I can grab an electric one (impact wrench) for around $40 and it would be pretty handy.
Would the max 240 ft lbs of torque an an electric impact wrench be sufficient to remove the crank pulley in a timing belt replacement job? I suppose if someone has the tightening torque spec, that...

Question, Have an 02 OZ Rally that has the 0421 error with a check engine light. Replaced the O2 sensor, no change. Currently have 95,000 miles. The dealer states the CAT was only covered to 80,000 miles, and we're out of luck. I have heard the CAT was covered under warranty till 100,000.
Who can I contact about this?? Can I force the dealer to honor the CAT replacement with over 90K...

hello all,
have a question. We have a 2003 lancer ES base model 2.2l (i believe) with the 4 speed auto.
Is there a filter inside the tranny? will i have to remove the tranny pan or is it only a screw on external filter.
thanks in advance

Hello, I have researched your entire website with regards to the Catalyst and O2 Sensors and retrieved and printed alot of very good information, but I still have some questions and hope to get some feedback.
My mom has a 2002 Lancer ES that has the check engine light on, we retrieved the codes 0421 (which I have seen in reference to the PDF on Warm Catalyst) and 0135. We had the PCM...

When I'm driving I get this knocking sound (which I can only describe as the sound from the pod racers in star wars episode 1) that seems to come from just in front of the dash, pretty much in the engine compartment. I can hear it happen when I just let off of the clutch, and it seems to respond to the speed of the car. That is the...

Is there anything I can do to get rid of it? could it be the e-brake? is there anything i can or have to adjust on the drum if i take that wheel off? or do i need a new shoe?

Hey guys,
I came across this the other day and I’m thinking about looking into it because it looks pretty legitimate. I was just wondering if any of you have used it or have seen it before? It’s a 90 minute instructional auto detailing DVD with hot cars and hot girls!
It Looks cool!

Hi, newbie to the Lancer. Installing a clutch from perfection clutch in a 2002 Lancer and took the flywheel to my machine shop and they can't get the dowel pins off to resurface it. Does anyone know if you have to remove the backing plate (with those 10pt bolts in it) to get them out? Or, should I just get an aftermarket flywheel? I'm at a loss, and my machine shop is too. Thanks....

I have had my '03 Lancer es for around a year and I was wanting to put some lowering springs on and I was wanting to know the factory spring rates.
What is the best aftermarket spring to use?
I am only wanting an inch or so.

Hello,
I am trying to figure out how to access my fuse box in my 2003 Lancer ES. From looking at the manual, it looks like it might be behind the glove compartment, but I can't figure out how to get in there, and I need to check and see if some fuses have blown. Forgive me if this is a stupid question.

My 2002 lancer is using the left front tire in the outside (dangerously). I brought the car in to do the alignment. They told me they did the alignment as much as they could but they also told me that they can't fix the problem all the way without installing a caster camber kit. So before I pay them 200$ to do so I would like to know is they are BSing me or if the lancer...
