So you went from a good base...to a..good base? wtf FML. I only had 3 Air Force bases in America I could go to with my AFSE cause I mainly get stationed at Army Bases. I got lucky McGuire AFB, NJ!!!! WOOO HOOO

 

if you want to consider lakenheath a good base when i worked 12 hours a day 6 days a week for 2 years, then i guess its good lol

 

Location Wise its good... Dude I dont have shifts, i work sometimes an hour a day, sometimes all day and night..lol I deploy on a few days notice, given, they are only 2-6 weeks deployments...


but trust me, it could be worse. lol

 

well i swapped relays, no luck. still wont start

 

well finally figured it out. the MAF housing was cracked and yea doesnt look good. so i had it towed into the dealer thinking it would be warranty, i was wrong. since the housing is cracked and not an "internal problem" they are not covering it under warranty. i love it lol. i called in and made a case to see if they will cover it. ill get a call tomorrow from the case worker to see if they will cover it or not. im not gettin my hopes up.

 

yep just as i expected. no warranty, screw mitsu

 

I must have missed it, but how / why is the MAF housing cracked? Has it been removed and re-installed?

 

no i havnt touched it, stock air box and all. never once even looked at the damn thing wrong.

 

Why the eff wouldn't mitsu cover it, are you out of your drivetrain warranty? I would tell them to fix it, its a stupid problem and the maf housing is prolly a $5 part.

 

Exactly. Did you buy the car used? Is it completely stock?

 

just full TBE other than that all stock. i was goin to get tuned this weekend but thats out the door now because i have to pay for new MAF sensor

 

I had the same thing happen on my STi. Just ran like hell all of a sudden, was a bad tank.

 

I also had starting problems and idle issues but it was related to a Custom Tune ( a simple issue they forgot to get rid of the LIMP safety mode)

Also my battery was weak so it was replaced under warranty.

Idle issues usually resort to MAF issues.

The car not starting can be many problems from the ECU (communication- it can be wires and etc), battery, and sometimes the Fast Key (Key is not properly programmed, fast key disruption from key in the pocket with cellphone and metallic objects, and etc)

 

Damn that sucks. I hope they cover it under warranty but mitsu delaers suck so I doubt it.

 

thought this matter was over but, mitsu decided to cover it after all. and now that the car starts, it still runs bad so they did a fuel sample. and yep bad gas
