a while back i asked if mitsu would fix my 4th and 2nd gear syncros with my mods:
SS clutch line
ACT HDSS Clutch
ES in car bushings
Short shifter
adjusted pedal play
AND a transmission leak...

went in yesterday, called them back today and they talked to Mitsu Tech line and they said they dont know why my 4th gear occasionally grinds but not all the time so they said ask their district manager (which is a friend's friend's dad. yes, friends friend, no typo) and they decided to fix my syncro and in the process, theyre gonna re-seal my TC/Tranny. For those who are wondering what dealership is doing this job, its Fresno Mitsubishi. Same guy i got pissed at last time did the calling for me. The workers over there claim he had a bad day. I guess...well as long as the job gets done im happy with Mitsu....for now. Its gonna take 4 days, not bad.

 

i guess it all depends on the dealership you go to

 

yea, i just pray they dont come across something and be like OH we cant do the job anymore. Still got my fingers crossed.

 

glad they decided to honor your warranty and i'm glad someone else can spell "warranty" without an 'e' also

 

It seems that you can catch more flies with honey than with vinegar.

 

What I'd like to know is if the friend called the friend who called the dad. Which is just fine in my book, but what if you walked in off the street with those mods?

 

Wait...it's not "warantey"? I've been usin' teh interwebz too long.

 

u never know, im just assuming that cuz my friend knows the owners' son and he said he'd put a word in for me but he didnt seem serious, Fresno mitsu is really mod-friendly though, they didnt even care that i had a SS clutch line, act hdss and even a tranny leak and even a piece of tranny is cracked, small crack on the ear.

 

it doesn't matter if you have a tank engine in your evo, those are TSB, it'll be fixed regardless of dealership under warranty.

 

you should make them sign something or get something from them b4 they start saying they agreed to fix it under warrenty and will do the job so they couldnt find it and b like o we cant.... even though i dont think they would i thought they would do this from the begingin

anyone know how warrente works when u buy a used evo does it just transfer and u have to go in or what?

I think it is more about who you know in this instance bro...and the syncho issue is with 5th gear according to my service manager...

 

HOPE IT works out for me on monday when I take my RWD EVO into the Dealer.

 

Yea it just transfers as long as it hasn't been voided before ....

RalliArtEvoVIII: good to hear you are getting it fixed under warranty as I have said in the past aftermarket clutch IS warranty friendly ... OOPs I forgot to put my "e" somewhere ...

 

majority of the ppl. spell it "warrenty", yes I am the spelling bee champion and grammer police

 

Anyone have the TSB number, I can't seem to find it on the NHTSA site.
