or it could be the new egine mounts somehow one is touching metal to metal but anyway its goin back monday to be fixed free of charge

As long as they fix it mate.

It's not about them stuffing up (shit happens), its about how they rectify the problem imo.

exactly right this guy might not be a mitsubish specialist but he is good they had the car for a month taking up space in their workshop hoist ect and they didnt charge me threw the roof

I hope for your sake that your mechanic knows how to set the hydraulic tensioner up better than he sets up balance shafts. Print out the pages from VFAQ for setting both the tensioner and the balance shafts and give them to him.

If I even thought that I had to give a mechanic instructions on how to do a job,
I take my car, and money elsewhere.

Personally, I'd rather just pay a competent mechanic and get it fixed right the first time.

Pretty sure it's just the rear engine mount had a look today and it's touching on metal somehow ....when I go around a roundabout turning right the vibration goes away

Fingers crossed you get this car sorted and on the road so you can enjoy it.

 

[rob323]

Fingers crossed that it is a simple fix for you.

All sorted it was just the rear engine mount : ) has anyone else here had to grind a little bit off the rear engine mount?

 

[ONPSI]
