I feel your pain. I think when any of us buy an Evo, we should really have the mindset, it doesnt "really" come with any warranty. This is the approach that I took. So far it has worked out ok.

Not to point fingers, but I wonder if this thread: https://www.evolutionm.net/forums/sh...d.php?t=361265 might be coming back to bite us in the buttocks.

Thats sucks dude sorry to hear that. I know my car is down too due to a leak tranny seal which is a bunch of bs that dealer didn't warranty it. Even though there the one who rebuilt it and damage the seal. All I can say Lewisville Mistu sucks.

Subaru isnt that great either here in SA...

I dont know about Mitsu, but where I work at BMW and the dealerships get paid by BMW manufacturer for replacing warranty parts, that how most of the money are being made by BMW dealership, we are very mods friendly unless that mods directly effect the problem, but then BMW cost twice as much or more than Mitsu

and how many mods are there for BMW's and how many HP can you add with them? You bought a race car now live with it. How many times have I been passed at the track by a BMW? Can't remember 1.
