2010 Mitsubishi ASX Crossover

[chronicle]

Add to it since this is a m/t.
Check if clutch is worn/slipping.

Goodluck

Earlier this year, pinaayos niya yung suspension. Sa Cruven pinagawa so I'm assuming lower quality yung parts na ginamit? Nawala yung kalampag but the problem is, nagkaproblema naman yung transmission support daw. Nagba-vibrate pag malamig pa makina, pero nawawala pag mainit na. Will have this checked. Sirain ba talaga suspension ng ASX?

Pardon my being a newbie but does soft suspension mean more chances of breaking down?

Di ko pa natest drive yung sasakyan but I'll take note to check for slipping transmission.

soft suspensions dont mean it will break easier. the engine and suspension mounts are different.

how old is the vehicle?

Thanks for the vid. It's a 2011 ASX. Haven't inspected it under the hood yet, though I heard the noise once. Standing beside the car at rinig yung vibration.

just note if you've had excessive vibration because the trans mount isnt good. it might have weakened the other engine mounts. remember the transmission and engine are mounted together.

surprise this thread moved....

just my 2 cents, I still have my 2011 ASX, still CASA maintained, 65K on the odometer... actually, already a bit beat up and used by my son.

So my unexpected surprises:

1. 5th year, had to change Aux Fan... its just stopped and over heated the engine... once replaced, everything AOK up to present day

2. last year, change Brake Master... it had a leak, if you base on the age of the Car... should be understandable

3. Regarding suspension... for me, its the "old" version of Mitsubishi, meaning makalampag.... Practically the whole car vibrates... the sound proofing is terrible.... which contributes to the feeling, the suspension will fall apart... BUT so far, its holding on.... Kung sanay kayo sa mga Lancers (you might understand... or from what I hear, the Mirage)

all my suspension parts are still okay... even told CASA to replace the bushings... sabi nila, alignment muna... and CASA tightens the bolts underneath every service (every 5K ako)... you can actually feel the difference.... but kalampag ulit after 1 month ;-)

4. Maintenance is fair... actually the reason why im keeping the car.


Its not the best for refinement, but admittedly its been reliable (for my experience)... will keep mine, and run it down.

[Egan101]

What I don't like about the ASX is the tuning of the CVT. The 2.0L engine is responsive but the way the CVT responds is not that refined. It can go quicker and faster if the CVT is tuned better.

The stock Yokohama ASPEC tires is durable but it feels hard and lacks a bit of grip. Maybe I will just wear them out and get grippier tires.

The soft suspension is good for city rides but if you are a bit aggressive with your cornering and lane switching, the cars feels a bit woobly.

[mrgoodbar]

Alright Stock, will have the tranny and engine supports checked. Under warranty pa naman sa Cruven.

Napapadalawang isip tuloy ako dahil sa suspension. Thanks for the input cta2. Will use the car almost exclusively for city rides. Friday to Sunday lang ako lumalabas usually. I really want something with more power and a bit more fun to drive. I'm assuming malayo difference nito sa first gen vios ko, but hearing about all these suspension problems makes me worry.

Egan, yeah heard about the CVT problem sa FB group. But this one has a manual tranny. Westlake tires 80% currently on the car. Hate Westlake it's noisy. Will replace it if I push through with the purchase. Weekends lang ako madalas umaalis, and I'm always stuck in Fairview traffic lol.

Hello guys...

i have an ageing mitsubishi ASX...
brakes are now spongy (again)...

brought it to CASA several times... and i guess nag process of elimination sila

1. Observation... meron naman daw brakes basta tapakan ng malakas... my issue was brakes were spongy in traffic... so they gave it a good bill of health...

2. Brought it outside of CASA, they said nobody does 'bleeding' of lines anymore due to ABS, it has to be done by CASA

3. Brought to another shop, specializes in Mitsubishi... didnt reply back when parts are available... and i kinda didnt like the shop, they are more of a supplier than car service shop

3. brought it to CASA again, coz i dont feel safe with the car, they told me to replace brake pads... okay... paid the price

4. still has the problem, observe... and they finally saw the problem, leak in Brake Master... okay, paid the price.

5. Car is better for 6 months, then spongy feel comes back again....

6. Of course will bring to CASA, but can someone pinpoint whats the real problem? Even told CASA to change the brake lines coz the rubber tubing can be the culprit (due to age of car)... but CASA says there no problem in the brake lines.

Any leads will be appreciated... either a good shop or if anyone has similar experience.

this is my 1st "major" problem with the car... I just hope i can find a solution... i do want to keep it

Thanks

I do not understand this. I hope someone can chime in to explain.

You said there was a leak. It is possible that there are other leaks somewhere, and air is trapped in the system so you experience the spongy feeling of brakes.

Hirap kasi change ng brake fluid, parang hinde exact science, meron tiga-bomba dopat sa driver side pero minsan may hangin pa din

sayang brake master mo, pinalitan kahit Hindi sira.

sponginess can be felt also with a worn down suspension part, I'm guessing ball joint Yan. ano ba Yan? mcperhson or wishbone. if McPherson try to have the lower ball joints replaced, pag wishbone, replace both upper and lower ball joints. bale x4 yun ha.

check your tires also, baka underinflated or Mali ang pagkakalbo, replace all na din since 2010 pa yan.

and if replace ball joints, pa-check mo tie rod and rack end kung may play. per my experience, dapat sabay pinapalitan eto along with the tires para sa balik Dati na feel ng car , while you're at it check the stab links and bushings na din

1) ABS brakes still need to be bled. IMO strike out na yung shop that told you they can't be bled, that's obviously dumb.
Bleeding ABS Brake Systems

2) Old rubber brake lines there are two schools of thought on this. One is that they're good enough, the other is that they eventually expand, making stainless-steel braided lines a worthwhile upgrade. Personal experience I really liked the feel of steel braided brake lines.

[minicarph]

takot lang yun mekaniko ng talyer na yun,

pag binaba kasi yan brakes at kinumpuni anjan ang ABS sensor. usually, disconnect lang yan parang port ng ilaw ng bulb.

malamang nakasira yun talyer na yun ng ABS Sensor, baka nadaganan or natamaan ng tools habang nagkukumpuni ng preno, kaya ganun sinabi nila.


wag kasi kayo magpapagawa sa mga talyer na walang lifter, magnet talaga sa kapalpakan yun mga ganun talyer.

[cta2]

Will just clarify...

According to shop (roadstar Katipunan), bleeding has to be done in Casa due to the ABS sensor... it will continually pump the fluid.... if they do it

My second shop was eldorado in project 4 (or cubao area)

Both shops were recommended, but I’m not satisfied with their service .... or lack of... though same with my existing CASA

So I’m still in limbo how I will proceed...

Take note I have nothing against the recommended shops... I’m sure they are good... just want to fix my ASX without guessing

Thanks

[minicarph]

bago gawa na kasi brake master mo, so closed system ang hydraulics, kung may leak pa yan, kung may aso kayo sa bahay nyo siigurado patay na yun if hinde mo nakikita kung nag leak ang brake fluid mo, kasi i lick nya yun

if you are after how it rides before when it was younger, thats why you described is spongy. I would recommend na tignan mo na na ang ibang part sa suspension system kasi they all work together. pag hinde ganun kakapit ang preno as before, somethig is worn out kaya di makapit sa harap.

The problem with mechanics and talyer with lifters, they really guess on the suspension system, so kelangan mo na mag decide on your own. A car with that age, ball joint yan. i consider ball joints kasi as like sparkplugs or fuel filter, kelangan palitan every 5 years. Madali lang gawin yan, maybe 1-1.5 hours work sa gasolinahan.

Now if i were you palitan mo na lahat ng dapat palitan sa suspension since bago na din brake pads , brake master at bago bleed fluid mo, para maganda and like new ulit takbo. Yes, even the tires if you have the budget

[chronicle]

Onti onti ba nauubos ang brake fluid?

labo lol

ABS only works when it senses a speed difference between your tires, kaya nga may wheel speed sensor. You can bleed the brakes on an ABS equipped vehicle just like you would with any other car.

Ginawa ko sir bumili ako nun bleeder hose with one way valve. Although pwede naman hose lang na naka lubog yun exit end sa brake fluid, gusto ko lang try out yun may valve.

Few days ago nag palit brake fluid ako nun sasakyan namin (Vios lang naman) kasama ko si misis. Si misis taga tingin pag may bula at nun level ng brake fluid. Minsan sya mag pump ng pedal pag nag double check ako.

Although dalawa kami is basically kaya naman ng isang tao.

Drove the car yesterday for 20KM so far no issues.
