got my lancer in Oct. 2001. (02 model of course)

No real problems. Only things I ran into I caused or were an effect of a mod.
mods in profile.
Sucky paint on these, but thats how most stock paint jobs are. Need to get it repainted.

75k. Basic mod.s The car rattles everywhere. Some go away and some stay. No engine problems (knock on wood). Very fun to drive, even beat the heck out of it sometimes, but always make sweet sweet love to her...

^ I beleive the rattles are from a lack of sound dampering material. If it is a piller just take it a part and put it back together, sometimes that fixes the noise.

I just got all my squeaks taken care of.. got all my bushings replaced under warranty and also they cleaned my brakes under warranty. My interior squeaks I took care of myself. I put Armaflex between panels that were loose and squeaking, and lined my trunk with Dynomat since I got my system custom glassed 2 months back. The only rattle I have on my car is my Evo7 grill in the front (mesh is rattling--fixing my using bondo to stick the insides), and my rear right taillight vibrates when my system hits.. I'm using Armaflex to shove between it since Dynomat isn't doing the job.

Issues I had were from blown suspension. Thought the ralliart struts would fix it, but I didn't like em at all. The Teins are great though.

33000 mile on mine. just squeaks on the inside. other than that no major problems. the only reason i would get rid of it would be for something with more power.

mods- k&n sri, and grill for now, pdx 3 bars( front, rear lower and trunk)

44k Kms, no major problems, got the bushings replaced the other day, it still squeaks, but I think its the sway bar. My gauge dimmer stopped working but they're gonna fix that under warranty of course. My clutch isn't feeling quite as short as I like, gonna ask the dealership about that, maybe get the fluid replaced, or the throw out bearing replaced.

Just hit 63,500 today. My mods are listed. The only problems i have had was replacing one ignitionn coil twice. I have no rattles or shakes. The car has been nothing but good to me and i have been the same to it. i also change my oil every 2000 miles religiously.

2003 lancer oz 5spd
now has 77,000 miles
I have had a rattle in the throw out bearing since 7500 miles but this is not a warrantied item so Mitsubishi says. It just rattles but does not affect performance. I have been trying to kill the clutch but have yet to succeed.
