Interested in buying a semi built evo. What are the most common problems evos have? tranny etc... or is there a thread that have been made about this.

 

I really couldn't get my search button to work on mine.......It was a recall! lol Jk

leaking, tranny failure, boost leaks, and bank account draining!

check condition of clutch, alot of guys are hard on the stock clutchs so they don't last.

 

clutch, tranny, t-case, those r basicly the most common problems

 

yep +1 to the above...

 

oh and the seats wear easy

 

clutch, tranny, t-case, randon clicking noises, and spending lots of money!

 

money and clutch. Be easy on teh six speed if you get an mr. I've heard of problems pulling lots of power in 4th being since it's a bit of a short gear.

 

wow i guess mitsubishi isnt a pro on tranny's

 

Me neither, it's got to be a man or a woman, not both .

 

Don't buy semi-built. You need an unabused car

 

driver error

 

yep. the most common problem with evos lies behind the steering wheel.

 

Couldn't agree more!

 

Evo's Really Require a sh-it ton of maintaining. If you just keep up on the Oil, and all the other fluids and Spark Plugs and your visual Multi-Point inspections by the dealer or a good mech, then this car will last you well past 145k. I know from experiance that the 4G63 will Last into 200K as long as you maintain it and dont abuse it. By far the weakest link in this car IS the linkage. The T-Case, Clutch and preaty much anything to do with the Transmission. Just dont Launch at every freakin stoplight and this thing will bring you to the end of days.
