Mitsubishi Corp and local DC area stealerships sucks. They refused warranty on my axle shaft. Koons of Silver Spring , MD said I had an aftermarket axle shaft from a different Mitsubishi model. I laughed and I just wanted to slap all of them silly!!!

Bring it to someone to pull it apart and diagnose it... Or, send it to Shep and let him. Either way, its an issue that seems to be plaguing the X's. Chances are, at some point, practically any point you'll need to address the transmission

Luck is the name of the game with that one... I was prepared to by a brand new one. Only to find out when I called he had just gotten in a virtually brand new one ready to go, much cheaper than the brand new ones. Only 1,800 miles on it

Ive got a real bad whine coming from my T case..putting down about 450 so its got a lot of stress. Around how much $$$$$$ is it to do a Built Shep T-case??? Also did you feel performance improvement with it.

Honestly I dont know, I think im just going to Buy a used off of Ebay and Have Shepp reinforce it. I was going to get mine pulled sent out, sent back then reinstalled BUT the guy who is going to do it doesnt want my car tying up the Lift all that time, Which I dont blame him... Anyone else have any info. Is Shepp or Jacks on this forum, Itd be nice to have answers from them on here in writing.

So heres an update ..... ALL THIS BS and its not even my T-case.... while mitsu has a written report stating it is, i brought my car to a trans shop, its on the lift in a million pieces, look what really happened! Pin from final Drive came out, scraped about a 1/8" of aluminum out of my transmission case, and cracked it.... Debating taking legal action seeing how They told me it was my transfer case and wrote that on the report and voided my warranty. Imagine if i paid the 5grand for the transfer case job and still had a transmission leak.... Im going to rip someones head off!!!!!!

If the noise only comes after the car has been running for a while, is it still the T-Case? or could it be something else. Its a dull whine that comes in gear increasing as rev's go high when its gear. Only*** when the car has been running for an hour or so.
