check the air filter, check the exhuaust... see if it has a dp or something (thats if its stock cat back). I dont see any visual mods such as a boost controller so it probably wasnt tinkered with tooo much. Might have been a car a kid owned to beat up on until the banks caught up with him and had to get rid of it
I know when i bought mine used i was alllllllllllll over finding the previous owner and bringing people to the dealer to have it alll checked and I did everything in my power to make sure the car was never modded. Looked and made sure there were no wire ties, made sure some of the lines still had the blue and white factory pen marks on then, made sure the bolts EVERYWHERE had never been touched. I wanted a 2003 and thats it... mine was never ever touched.

Please fix the spelling errors. It is hard to read all that in that form.
From what you are describing, it sounds like either you dont have a cat (cat delete pipe maybe?), bad o2 sensor, or a bad cat. With the ACD lights, that leads me to believe that the unit is either low on fluid and cannot actuate properly, or that there is a failure in it. Also from what your said about the fuel mileage it seems that you have some performance modifications on the car. What are they? (what can you visually see that is not factory?) And do you know if the car has the proper ECU tuning? The tuning in itself can cause the extreme amount of fuel usage.
With these issues, they all sound like something that would be covered under the factory warranty (except the fuel mileage) if you had a modification friendly Mitsubishi dealership in your area. I would highly recomend that you take it to them and see if any of it would be covered, as that would remove the majority of your "headache/issues"

anyways its not fixed and they keep saying theyll fix it and it never happened. went to a shop yesterday s&b auto to get it checked out and wow so much problems i cant even explain it. put it on a lift and saw many missing parts and parts that wasnt even suppose ot be there so tomorrow i need to trade it in for a new car since it wont be resolved. dumbass car on the way =/ prolly a lil family sedan...
