#2248 of 2438 Re: 2002 Galant Heater Core [loni1] by rtolentino2 Oct 21, 2006 (10:01 am)
Replying to: loni1 (Oct 18, 2006 11:09 am) I feel sorry for your 2002 Galant..BUT not all galants have the same problems as yours. It depends on how it was used by the first owner or how old is the model or where did you buy it??? I also have an '02 Galant & bought this "certified" pre-owned at Cerritos Auto Square BUT, it was indeed great in terms of driving except for the brakes which i replaced after 45K mileage.   To be honest, i already traded my '02 Galant at 96,800mileage & BOUGHT a brand new 2007 ES 2.4 Mivec Galant!!! w/ a Sport Package. I was really aiming for the Galant Ralliart (fully loaded) but i was'nt able to qualify. Nevetheless, i HIGHLY recommend these Galants not only of its realiability in terms of the engine & transmission (Made in Japan)..... BUT also in terms of safety features & warranties. See CONSUMER REPORTS & compare the 07 Camrys to 07 Galant.   Camry's have transmission issues & ratings are only 3 1/2 %%%% as compared to Galants at 4-5%%%%.   Galant is the BEST backed car in terms of warranties: 100,000/10yrs. Powertrain waranty / 5yrs./60,000 bumper2bumper / 7 yrs.anti-corrosion/ and lastly 5 yrs/ or unlimited mileage Roadside Assistance!!!!   Side Curtain Air bags/Head protection (both front & passengers)are standard on all 2007 models!!! Including the side air (front only)bags, plus the standard driver & front passenger air bags.   360-watts Rockford High Definition Accoustic Sound w/ 8 speakers (incl. 2 subwoofers) are standard on Ralliart or as a sport package just like what i have on my ES model.   TRaction Control are standard on a GTS & Ralliart incl. ABS & Electronic Brakeforce Distribution. Ralliarts have a 14" ventilated rotors in front.   Engine is 3.8 V6 Mivec............what else??? Style is cool & great as if you're in a BMW or other european cars.   Result............five stars.!!!   Sounds cool?????????   Camrys are BORING & pls. read consumer ratings & reports!!!!   Mitsus are driven to THRILL you!!!!

Replying to: loni1 (Oct 18, 2006 11:09 am) That's a sad situation with you're Galant. But Galants are very reliable indeed. Things go wrong and some mechanics make the situation worst. Some dealers customer service makes you wish to never go back there. That is the case with a lady friend of mine and her 2001 Nissan Sentra. The car was great till something triggered the Check Engine light. She took it to a Nissan dealer and they kept on changing parts, wrong diagnostics, more replacements..... she has spent more than $4,000 in repairs and now she totally hates Nissan's. And Nissan's are not bad....just like Mitsubishi's there very good cars. But S*&t happens and that is normal with all makes and models, including Honda's and Toyota's.

Replying to: jsegura72 (May 04, 2006 12:11 pm) Hey. Last week I bought an 04 galant ls v6 for my wife. She wanted a minivan. f--- that. anyway, I am interested in the xenon light conversion as well. I wasn't sure if just replacing the bulbs would improve anything, or if I should replace the entire light assembly. Please let me know anything you found out what you have found out or done. Thanx, steve from canada. By the way, she loves the car, so does the baby.
#2251 of 2438 working trunk on Key Fob by bill107 Oct 27, 2006 (4:13 am)
Just purchased an '03 Galant, my first Mitsu, love it so far. Can anyone provide me with key fob instructions? Can't seem to get the trunk to open with the fob even after new batteries... Also, any other tips on the '03 in general would be appreciated. Thanks. Replies to this message: unknown (Dec 03, 2006 6:30 pm) bill107 (Dec 07, 2006 6:47 pm)

#2253 of 2438 2007 ES Galant by rtolentino2 Nov 15, 2006 (5:48 pm)
I just purchased my '07 ES Galant w/ a sport package on it. If i need to upgrade my wheels & tires from 16" to 18", is there any effect on my TPMS or tire pressure monitoring system? Will they be able to transfer the sensor to my new custom wheels?? I really love this car, though it's a 4 cylinder only w/ a sportronic transmission which is awesome - great power for the first 3 gears!!! What if i have a V6 3.5L engine???

Replying to: bill107 (Oct 27, 2006 4:13 am) I don't for certain on the '03, but on the '06 you must press the button two times to get the trunk to pop. You probably already tried this, but that's all I can come up with, other than Googling for answers or an owners manual. Replies to this message: bill107 (Dec 07, 2006 6:47 pm)

Replying to: unknown (Dec 03, 2006 6:30 pm) Turns out it is an aftermarket product and the trunk button does not work...

Replying to: sr007 (Nov 05, 2006 3:49 pm) Had similar problem with my 2002. Heater core valve is probably stuck in closed position. In my 2002, its controlled by a motor driven module located next to heater core below dash. Access requires removing various panels and ducts below glove compartment--not exactly easy but doable. Dealer part that costs > $100. Good intention e.g. minimize cable actuators, etc. resulting in Bad implementation by using a substandard motor control subsystem design. Good cars sometime have minor design faults of which this is an example. Good luck.

Replying to: ashwinir (Oct 01, 2006 7:22 am) My 04 Galant LS is doing the same thing (ABS, TCL OFF, and Anti Lock) lights come on after driving. I was told it is a "sensor" issue. Has anyone had this problem and gotten it repaired? Is it costly? Will it cause any trouble in the long run (i.e. engine failure?) Please help   Thanks!
