EMERGENCY BRAKE LIGHT WON'T GO OFF
Not sure what model vehicle you have. Look at the emergency brake pedal, and see if it is supposed to hit a switch when the pedal is released - it may be the switch it out of adjustment and needs adjusted.
Have someone watch the light while you run your finger along the entire length of the pedal to see if the light goes out when you hit the switch. This assumes the issue is mechanical.
Some whirling noises
suspect it is warped disc rotors. If the pedal pulsates under your foot on light braking I would take it to a brake shop for investigation of the fault. Any noise or unusual incidents with brakes can become critical if ignored.
Rear end noise on 2006 mitsubishi outlander
There is a race bearing on the back side of the rotor. If you haven't replaced it, I would strongly recommend it. You should change those out every time you change your rotors. Most new rotors come with new race bearings, if it did come with a new one (and it isn't shot yet), pull it out and pack it with grease. Wear latex gloves, put a pile of general purpose grease in your hand, and start stuffing the grease into the bearing until it comes out the other side.
Try different location on the clutch pedal to get it to start
If you look above the clutch pedal you should be able to see the operating switch, depress clutch pedal and see that there is clearane between the pedal and switch, It may be loose or require adjustment, the other option is to remove terminal block and bridge the terminals, this will delete the need for the switch and also the need to depress the pedal to start the motor, Regards Mike
Cant find sparkplugs on mitsubshi
Not familar with your engine, but we get a lot of
those questions everyday
The answer is: you either never looked very hard
or have no idea that half of all vehicles today are hemi
head engines & the spark plugs are under the
individual coils,you have to remove first, to get to
the spark plugs.

Changing spark plugs won't fix much
They get changed every 3 years or 60,000 miles in the motor
I would guess you have 100,000 miles by now, so the front
O2 Sensors should be changed also

if you have taken the plastic shield off the top of the engine, then you will see ignition coils mounted to the valve cover. the plugs are under the coils. if it is a 4 cylinder then you should see all of them,but if it is a V-6 then three are under the intake plenum. the plenum will need to be removed to change the back three plugs.
When I change my bearing
It sometimes get damaged in the removal process of the bearing, so it's not a bad idea to do it as well.
My headlight went out. I
if the bulb will work in another socket then it is not just blowing out bulbs, it most likely has a small short in the power wire a continuity test can determine where is is coming from.
There is a bang in
Only 3 things can shift wide enough to generate the bang: the muffler, one of the supports for the shocks attached to the rear axle and the rear shaft's intermediate support. All 3 are attached to the body of the car with rubber bushings that have either aged and got loose or they failed all-together.
The only way to determine which is the cause is to get under the car and to start shaking the parts - either with your bare hand or with a small lever. The part that has too much play or on which the bushing is visibly damaged is the culprit - replace the damaged bushing.
I have just replaced the
Hello aislin87,
The total engine coolant capacity is 7.4 quarts.
Just changing the thermostat should not drain the entire system so you wont need that much.
The recommendation is above 30% but below 60% anti freeze to water to provide for proper freeze and anti-corrosion protection.

Hi i do have the code for the stereo in my
Try another dealer. If you provide them your VIN# they should be able to pull up your code - provided it's the original radio. Maybe try contacting Mitsubishi directly online.
