Has anyone with a US SPEC EVO have been honored their warranty here in Germany? My warranty is not being honored at a Mitsu dealership for the plain fact that is US Spec. but my deficiency is warranty Covered.. how does that work. Any info is appreciated. thxs..

 

Having lived in Germany, I can tell you this:

Parent companies will not honor warranties unless otherwise implied, ie; BMW and Volvo european delivery programs. In your situation, you're SOL. This is one reason I did not buy and then ship while I lived over there

 

I had the same thing happen to me while stationed at Ramstein. I learned to turn a wrench there because I didn't trust the automotive shops on base. You can always call Ralliart and see if they can help you. There's one up north by Hamburg and I thought there's also one east of Frankfurt but I can't seem to find it. If anything, they can tell you if there's another shop closer to you.

Here's all I can find at the moment. You can use the itinerery on www.mappy.com to find it.

Wrenching is not the problem.. Okay so am SOL.. thxs.. Am just gonna order what i need through spinz4 and fix my ****.. is just that I wanted them to fix it as is a warranty item.. but its okay ama get them F**** when i get back to USA

 

Kind of sucks, but at least you have killer auto hobby shops to wrench on in. What seems to be the problem with the car?

Enjoy Europe...that was some of the best time in my life!

 

Redline06, It is true.. European Mitsu will not honor US SPEC Evos'... My clutch is toast at 27K miles.. Guess that is pretty good, considering I've been pushing it for most of the last 22K.. anyway, before I kill the wallet, does anyone have the patience and knowledge to help change one out nearby?? I would definitely compensate.. I have done one in my life, but that was with a knowledgeable mitsu guy.. Thanks for any help or possible info on a shop that would rape me slightly (like, less than 500 euro).. thanks all... Sorry for whoring on your thread..

 

**** never done it but we can risk our lives on a HOW TO.. BTW which one are you getting..? Thinking on getting me the ACT HD w/ Gruppe-s fly whl.. If i recall.. your gonna need that breaker bar fo sho.. also them fluids.. gonna take out alot of stuff.. and since where not that knowledge able is gonna take us more than one day..

I know my friend prob could of done it for you in like 7~9 hours and all you had to do was feed the bastard..

 

Anybody got a stock Advan with decent thread for sale.. just looking for the inside not to be worn.. let me know.. I pay cash..

 

I hear ya bout the time.. I had most of the junk out and tried to break one of the bolts with a 4ft breaker bar and then was done.. I put everything back in and am now sick to my stomach with the dam thing... So, I'm guessing your friend is not around anymore?? I'd feed him a 5 course meal if he were.. .. as for an advan.. I may have one. I'll check tonite. hit me up again tomorrow and I'll let you know..

 

VOID I really hate to say it but I preorderedmy 03 Evo and took it to germany 4 years ago and there isnt anything you can do about it! Sorry but i know it sucks and breaks the bank too!

 

I was one bolt away from dropping my tranny, but between my torn PCL and my really tiny garage my frustration got the best of me and I put it back together and took it somewhere. Which bolt was it? Also make sure you have a slide hammer. I ran around for 2days trying to find one.
