I have had my 2007 Endeavor for a few months. Now that we have very cold weather in New England I use my heating system every day. It works OK but not as well as I expected. I also have a Dodge Grand Caravan and the heating system is so much stronger there - it can warm up the car in half the time the Endeavor's does. I took my Endeavor to a mechanic and he said that it is normal for Mitsubishi cars to have weaker heating systems and Dodge cars are known for having stronger heating systems overall. How would you rate your Endeavor's heating system compared to other cars you have or had before.

We have a 2004 Endeavor and a 2007 Galant and these guys heat up quicker than anything else we've ever had over the last 40 years. And that's real important in upstate New York!

Why was your mass air sensor replaced? What symptoms were you experiencing?

I have a 2004 Endeavor and had to replace the mass air sensor or something close to that name, I thought it was bad fuel, but after it was replaced the car runs fine.but before that it would turn over and never start and emit black smoke.

I have the same two cars and your right the Dodge will run you out. This is my first winter with the endeavor. It heats up twice as fast but does not get the cabin temperature up too fast. I switch it to the floor setting and you get it blowing in the back seat it does help. Is your car/engine seem loud. I am trying to get over it but it gets on my nerves.

The endeavor acted as though it was bad gas, and emitted black smoke when we tried to start the car. But when we tried to start the car, it either wouldn't start or start and it idled very badly and then go dead, we had to have it towed to have it repaired.

I have had my '04 for 2.5 years now and it seems to run quiet when you are idling or cruising. However, when accelerating it seems to get louder. Its always been that way and we haven't had to bring it in yet. Knock on wood.
This is the first Minnesota winter it has really seen (Texas car) and the engine is much louder in the bitter cold.
The heating system usually works fine, but in this -50F weather it does have trouble warming up the cab.

Yes, I think the engine is quite loud. It also makes all kinds of different noises when you switch into a gear, especially with reverse gear. As far as the heat goes it takes so much longer to defrost the windows in Endeavor as opposed to Dodge Grand Caravan. I also think I have a problem with floor heat setting. I don't think there is any air coming out. How much heated air do you have coming out at the floor on the driver's side?
