Hey everyone, I am not super-familiar with customizations so I was hoping to possibly get some advice.. I have a 2004 Endeavor LTD As everyone probably knows, the center console is crap because it is a one piece cover, which hiders the easiness to replace the audio receiver with something better or newer. I have a couple of questions: How much would it cost (generally speaking) to get a new center console cover molding so that I can utilize the 2-dins (I think) that are already being used behind it? I've seen some other pictures of other people that have done mods to their center console; howver, I am finding it hard to ask them. (I went to cardomain.com) Where can I get a receiver that is SURE to fit? I already went to crutchfield to check out a few things and found some that supposedly fits; however, they also say: "Video receivers with flip-out monitors may not work in this vehicle because of the configuration of the factory dash." Are there actually 2-dins that I can possibly fill? How would the center display/clock be affected? I have the Limited version so that center console display is the upgraded version. I also have a 2004 Galant LS, which I was able to switch out the receiver. Will there be an "E Com" message like the Galant and cause problems with the other integrated controls like HVAC and such? Also, if anyone has any advice, that would be GREATLY GREATLY appreciated!!! |

My 2004 XLS AWD is having a noise which sounds like engine knock. It came from under floor at the speed of 40mph or faster, I fist doubted engine knock but seems nothing to do with the gas pedal position. Does anyone have similar experience? I use premium gas BTW. |

| First , I wish this site could generate a few more posts! Not much happening either good or bad and no one wants to talk about it? I have a few observations reguarding my 07 Endeavor SE.I wonder if savings was the reason behind the omission of bag hooks in the cargo area and front seat backs? My 2004 LS had them the 07 SE don't. Also my 04 had large rubber blocks mounted on the inside of the rear hatch near the tail lamps , they are missing on the 2007.Lastly , leaving off the side trim did not improve the looks , in fact it had the oposite effect. (I had them installed after purchase) Sadly the hood still uses a prop rod to hold itself open as did the 04. Is there anyone who knows why this was done? The savings don't seem worth it, with Mitsu in the hole, was cutting $5.00 off the vehicle going to save the company? | |

Got a 2006 Endeavor LTD AWD. Drives great no probs yet. Does anyone know if Mitsu has a GPS module that can fit the console ? Seem to remember salesman saying something about an extra $200 or $2000 to install. I was to happy to drive away. I don't quite remember what he said. Thanks, travla413 btw: taking her for a run down to North Carolina in 2 weeks looking to see how she performs outside of New York city.

We recently bought a 2007 Mitsubishi Endeavor, largely on the recommendations on this forum. We are happy with most everything except the audio system. Has anyone swapped out the system and were you happy with the results. Any information will be much appreciated. Anne |

BTW, I just purchased an '06 Endeavor Limited AWD awhile back and enjoy it. We just had our third snow storm in Denver this year (2007) and the truck did great in the snow! I took it out on the first snow at night and drove all around the side streets and small hills, and practiced a bit in the Target parking lot to see how it would react - it did well. I also drove around testing the AWD along with starts/stops on hills and in deeper snow (8-10 inches). I also played around with the truck/AWD in the other two snows as well. The one thing that was readily apparent, the stock tires (Turanzas) are not good in the snow at all, a set of different tires would make a noticeable difference for snow traction and driving, and by most accounts I've read from others and on Tirerack.com, on ride/noise as well. I have a fair amount of winter/snow driving experience from living and driving in Denver and to the ski resorts in Colorado so I have a little background on how different vehicles and tires react. I've had a variety of four-wheel drive vehicles (Pathfinder, Explorer, Trailblazer), and AWD vehicles including a Subaru and a BMW 325xi (still have the 325xi and it does well in the snow, but dreadful ground clearance). These Turanza tires do not do well by any stretch of the imagination (but they seem to last a decent amount of time if rotated regularly), and if they weren't so new, I would spring for a different set of tires. Bottom line, I think the AWD with it's 50/50 torque split does a good job in the snow. Anybody change their tires, and if so, what have you gone with and how have you liked them?
