I have quite a rare car here in the UK. Its a Mitsubishi Airtrek Turbo. Its pretty much a Mitsubishi evo 7 with a semi-automatic gearbox (Evo gta) with a different body on it (kind of like an outlander).
Im having a few problems and im really struggling to find any info to help me.
Firstly im having a problem with my car stalling when first starting it. I have to hold the accelerator slightly for about 20 seconds or it will stall. Afterwards it has a very low idle until warm . After the car has been driven and is warm it has a high idle (around 1500-200rpm) if i put my foot under the accelerator and pull it back towards me it lowers the idle again (too low).
Secondly if i hold the revs at 4000rpm under a light throttle i can hear a slight engine rattle, Its been like this since i have owned it and only happens at very slight throttle at this rpm any lower or higher and it goes away, also it doesnt happen with more throttle. Is this a common problem?
I know i also have a boost leak at the moment. I have ordered a replacement original BOV as the current one is leaking above 5000rpm so i dont know if that is contributing to the problems.
Lastly does any one know if the front brake calipers are the same as an evo.
Thanks for any help
