Uncommon parts are not typically warehoused locally, I have inquired about parts like throttle bodies in the past for TB swaps and was told 3-4 weeks from Japan to Canada.
Since this is a past from February, you've obviously found what you were looking for by now. I went to my favorite Mitsubishi Parts site and searched for balance shafts and found over 1000 results. I'm in California and don't know if they ship to the UK or not. I'd imagine they do.Has anyone else suffered a Balance Shaft Failure? Mitsubishi tell me there are no replacement parts in the UK and it will take 8 weeks to arrive by sea presumably from Japan. They say it is not carried in the UK due last of storage space!!!!!!! How many other people are waiting like this.
The engine is a 2.2DI-d diesel.
Hi mine has just failed also, parts for a component which should last the life of the car seem to be eye wateringly expensive, and then not guaranteedHi,
Mine has just gone on my Outlander and i'm waiting for Exeter Mitsubishi to look at it - what did it cost you to repair?
Thanks
Hi this is common failure. Mitsubishi should re called all the cars with 4n 14 to fix this even after 5 years warranty because is just braking around 60 000 mileHas anyone else suffered a Balance Shaft Failure?

£2500+VAT for the parts and 15 hours labour, so you’re looking at a £5k repair.Hi,

Who will be paid for that??£2500+VAT for the parts and 15 hours labour, so you’re looking at a £5k repair.
Can you tell me what year your car is please as I have just had the same go on my car and it a 61 plateHas anyone else suffered a Balance Shaft Failure?

Hi ours is a 63 plate, I’m not sure what the production run for this engine was,and whether it spanned face-lifts.Can you tell me what year your car is please as I have just had the same go on my car and it a 61 plate
Mitsubishi say no (or at least haven’t recalled), but they do produce a kit for £2500+VAT and provide no guarantee unless you buy and fit the whole kit.Is this a known fault with these engines ??
Thanks Dave for letting me know I have just had mine fixed and I managed to haggle on the price but if this is a manufacture fault I just hope I can get all my money back but I will keep looking into this issue as it seems that the newer cars are the ones with the problemsHi ours is a 63 plate, I’m not sure what the production run for this engine was,and whether it spanned face-lifts.
