Hi DibbyDibbyDj,

Thanks for your response. How do you know this? Do you have all the numbers from Mitsubishi.
I was thinking of putting a Freedom of Information request to Mitsubishi so as to find out the true number of those that have been repaired then there would be a definitive answer. It's not like a car manufacturer would ever advertise every time one is repaired. Quite the opposite they would keep it under wraps.
At least with a FOI request here in the UK they are legally bound to answer with a true and honest reply.

What do you think?
 
Hi All,
Thought I would just put my 2 pennies In. I too have the balance shaft issue on my Mitsy outlander 2.3 2011. I'm thinking of removing the coupler but would prefer replacement parts but it's just not worth the money on such an old car.
I would encourage all members or non members to come forward and post so we can get a real idea of how extensive this problem is.
If we can get enough people to come forward it could help in us the fight to get mitsubishi to recall and get this problem sorted once and for all.
Kind regards Sausages.
