#246 of 408 Re: Car and Driver report [deadmanlives] by henry05 Sep 16, 2006 (3:37 pm)
Replying to: deadmanlives (Jul 15, 2006 4:06 pm) I am sorry to have to disagree with the statement "... M-ASTC. Yet, this appears to be what you get with 2005 traction control".   M-ASTC stands for "Mitsubishi Active Skid and Traction Control", this is the name Mitsubishi gives to what is known in the industry as "Electronic Stability Control". Other makers give their own names to ESC such as "Stabilitrack", etc.   M-ASTC is an AVAILABLE option on the 2006 LIMITED version of the Endeavor... you can read this at http://www.mitsucars.com/MMSA/jsp/endeavor/features_specs.jsp   There is an Electronic Stability Control Coalition web site www.esc.com where they list which model and which years the ESC system is offered either as standard or optional feature. Unfortunately, today, their site is down. I think I recall from visiting that site before, that M-ASTC was not available on the 2005 Endeavor.   Having TCS (traction control system) on a 2006 Endeavor Limited (or any of the Endeavors) does not mean you have M-ASTC... I wish it did.   Traction Control (TCS) is great... I call it "the magic hand" as it makes the necessary correction to avoid the tires from skidding...   ESC is a much more comprehensive system which includes a gyroscope. It takes control of the car (making motor speed, brake and suspension adjustments) when excessive or abnormal maneuvers are detected, such as during an accident.   Typically TCS can be disconnected through a switch if you want to regain normal control of the car (such is the case on the 2005 Limited Endeavor). I have not read that you can disconnect ESC.
#247 of 408 Damaged Door Hinge Bolts by southwest3 Sep 23, 2006 (4:41 pm)
Door Hinge Attaching Bolts on New 2006 Endeavor (all four doors) clearly have had wrench used on them before vehicle delivered. Bolt heads are marred and all paint off. These are bolts that attach to Door; not to vehicle Body. Have never seen this in 40 years of buying new vehicles! Would very much appreciate any and all ideas as to what has happened and why? Thank You! Replies to this message: Mr_Shiftright (Sep 23, 2006 5:13 pm)

Replying to: southwest3 (Sep 23, 2006 4:41 pm) Probably the door was adjusted because it wasn't closing properly during prep, I would guess. If it were a newly painted door, they would have done the install and adjusting first, then painted over the hinge.
#249 of 408 Trip computer by damon34 Sep 24, 2006 (11:57 am)
Does all trims of the Endeavor come with the trip computer where it tells your fuel consumption MPG and so on. I was curious. Thinking about buying one but all I have test drove was the LS and I didnt even check out the radio. Thank you. Replies to this message: Mr_Shiftright (Sep 25, 2006 9:44 am)

Replying to: gerg (Jun 23, 2006 9:55 am) I have a 2004 Endeavor and have the same problem. Did you ever find the drain tube?

Replying to: damon34 (Sep 24, 2006 11:57 am) Pretty sure you have to buy the Limited trim level to get it standard, or you have to buy an LS and add the Road Trip Package, which is a lotta stuff bundled together.
#252 of 408 Re: 2004 Endeavor - Won't Start - Dealer Can't Fix [homburgpokes] by kimsegg Sep 27, 2006 (8:52 pm)
Replying to: homburgpokes (Apr 01, 2006 7:08 am) What happened to your car later? Did replacing ECU fix your start problem?   I have an exactly same problem with the same model. I already have my car towed twice.   Your reply will be appreciated. Replies to this message: delkor (Sep 08, 2008 7:47 am) homburgpokes (Jan 29, 2009 2:51 am)

Replying to: hellcat51 (Jun 12, 2006 5:57 am) I have this same noise and each time I take it to the dealer they cannot hear anything - I think they think I am crazy - and it happens right after I turn the car off as well.
#254 of 408 Re: If you buy a used Endeavor... [rdublu] by herewego Nov 17, 2006 (7:28 pm)
Replying to: rdublu (Sep 06, 2006 4:35 pm) I could not figure it out. I could not locate the Data Port. I took it to the dealership and they cut/programmed 2 keys and programmed the remote for $45. If you are still interested, you can email me at v_ballfanyahoo.com and I can forward it to you. Replies to this message: duckman2405 (Dec 30, 2006 11:46 am)

Replying to: nosnowrm (Dec 03, 2003 7:48 pm) That not being able to find the radiator, kind of scared me so I started looking and found a place in California that looks like they have every part for this vehicle partsformitsubishi.com
