I was nursing these warning lights for the last few months, hoping it was something minor. Sometimes, after a full charge the lights reset, Unfortunately january was cold and lots of road salting, so earliest I could get into the garage was today. Got the bad news today, as above, Rear hub and...

Reading my recall, its the Caliper shaft itself seems to be the issue, rather than the shaft boots, however the same recall code is used, R30404. https://www.autoinsider.co.uk/recalls/r2018180-mitsubishi-outlander

Mine had a 67 Plate. Build year 2016, Last UK owner in 2020. Surprising it wasn't caught. Had a good MOT record. Last MOT expired 21/9/2021.Last test 9/9/2020. DVLA say this is a new recall, only issued 27/2/2022. Went to dealers this morning, one caliper seized completely, other one not far...

Just got a letter from Mitsubishi (Ireland) telling me my (UK import) Outlander has been identified for recall. The letter states "In a limited number of vehicles, the rear brake caliper shaft can become stuck due to water intrusion. Worst case scenario parking brake force might be decreased and...

I explained to the wife how I fixed it yesterday. She didn't say anything but I knew. I knew she would take no responsibility for turning the volume down last time the first issue happened. She was 100% certain it is my fault.

I wish there was a facepalm gif that would explain my current sentiment. Followed your instructions, rang my work phone from my own phone while connected, and twiddled volume knob. and yes, "someone" had turned the volume down to zero. Thank you all so much. Have to wait for someone to ring...

I ave searched but am unable to find a thread on how to fix the numerous bugs I have had with Android Auto since buying my 2017 Kotu almost a year ago. Problem 1. Phone (Samsung Galaxy A41, Android 6) connected to car using original cable via USB port in elbow rest. No major issues until you...

Weather has been steady so I decided to try this out. The Fuel up warning came on when I had driven 260 miles. With a full battery each time I did 2x 30 mile trips. Double flash started halfway into the 2nd 30 mile trip).Put 42 Litres in this morning, and am returning almost 36mpg. Mornings are...

That's the one.

There is a guy in Australia does just that. I found the clip on youtube a while back, but the channel owner is one of those who tries to operate a phev without using petrol, or connecting it to a charger.... That's just too annoying for me. Needed a pretty serious inverter, given he was in the...

I can concur with that said above. As I live within 2 miles of fuelling station, and most of my recent journeys are more than 10miles (managed a total of 19 miles on sunday, what a treat), I gain nothing by waiting to fill it. Sunday was the first time I managed to put more than 38L in the...

Mitsubishi, part of the "Big 3" (Nissan, Renault and MMC) have decided they are no longer going to design vehicles to be Euro 6 Compliant, and instead will focus on the growing market in the Middle East, Australia and the US. Their statement lacked a lot of detail, Launch season next month will...

My front grille badge looks worse than that. Mine was a 67 plate. The finish on the grille was poor, and it suffered badly from the normal road grit, winter salt, bugs, powerwashing etc. I'm laughing at the seat photo. Most of our work vehicles had no upholstery in that area after years of...

1. Owner 27/11/2020 2. Oct 2017 Kotu 3. Facelift 4. Recent house move& shorter commute saw first a change from diesel to petrol, but even petrol wasn't efficient enough and PHEV was the ideal solution. Petrol car started giving expensive trouble, decided not to throw any more money at a 2010...
