Replying to: penguin87 (Feb 15, 2009 12:22 pm) I tend to believe that you have a problem with your "idle control valve". Ask the mechanic to test this part. Also, you may want to consider adding some additives on the gas tank, possible your fuel filter may be due for a change. Good luck Replies to this message: penguin87 (Feb 15, 2009 7:03 pm) mikevegas06 (Feb 16, 2009 10:01 am)

Replying to: penguin87 (Feb 15, 2009 7:03 pm) Also consider having your alternator checked.

Replying to: dmutt (Sep 10, 2007 11:40 am) Is a cam leak a consistent problem with this vehicle? I'm considering buying an '01 XLS 4WD and any "preventative" advice would be most appreciated!   Thanks,   Lee
#187 of 229 Oil Leak Help/Replace Engine? by trelanni Mar 23, 2009 (5:43 am)
The oil leak all out from my Montero. Along with the oil leak came a knocking noise. Took it to a mechanic who informed me that I need a new engine. He mentioned nothing about the oil leak. Then he told me that I might not need to change the whole engine, just to change the engine block. He still didn't mention anything about the oil leak. He also mentioned that it seemed like something broke inside the engine, because the dip stick is loose. Replies to this message: ruddneck (Mar 23, 2009 9:33 am)

Replying to: trelanni (Mar 23, 2009 5:43 am) If you ran the vehicle without oil in it, you probably burned up the engine and will need a new one.
#189 of 229 irratic speedometer by mikesLTD2001 Mar 29, 2009 (10:24 am)
HI,   I have a 2001 Mitsubishi Montero LTD with about 106,000 miles. Recently I experienced my temperature guage reading high when the car was not overheating. Sometime after that started, my speedometer started to stick. It starts at 0 and as you speed up it jumps up in increments of about 10 MPH. As you slow down it stays at the same reading until it suddenly drops back down. At highway speeds of 65 or so it only reads 50-55. I changed out the small controller board on the back of the instrument cluster and that solved the problem with the temperature guage but the speedomete still acts the same. Any thoughts?   Thanks Mike

Replying to: mikesLTD2001 (Dec 10, 2008 8:29 am) I finally got this temp guage problem resolved. I purchased a new instrument cluster control board MR532787 which is mounted on the back of the instrument cluster. Now the temp guage reads fine.   Mike Replies to this message: mikevegas06 (Mar 30, 2009 4:12 am) rosswl (Apr 03, 2009 11:02 am) mikesLTD2001 (Apr 05, 2009 3:31 pm) sirpkp (Oct 02, 2009 7:50 am) igorveksler (Jul 09, 2009 2:50 pm)

Replying to: mikesLTD2001 (Mar 29, 2009 10:50 am) Mike,   Thanks for the update on how to resolve the temp gauge problem. Not sure what's up with your speedometer, though. Sounds like the cable/gearing associated with the speedometer is dirty. I suggest posting your question at this website mitsubishi-forums.com Hope this helps.
