Sir question for newb and first time driver like me..
After I start the engine kelangan ba hintayin ko mawala yung temp na color green? Or kahit paandarin ko na agad after start ng car..
Thanks
it would be good for the engine to wait for the temp light to go off before setting the car into motion.
temp light off means the engine is warm enough to have diluted the oil in it, which in effect lessen the wear & tear of the engine once loaded with additional stress when the clutch is engaged whenever you set the car in motion
oil thickens in cold temperature (engine off)

sir I just want to note this.. the engine that just started consumes more fuel.
mga sir/mam.. ask ko lang po kung may info na kyo regarding sa software upgrade ng mga mirage..
Mitsubishi customer care dept called me yesterday and scheduled me for an ETACS unit reprogramming. She said that it is only applicable to GLS unit (those with push start stop button). From what I understand of her explanation, the reprogramming has something to do with the car being able to start after removing the battery terminals within 60-90mins. (For those who already have their ETACS unit upgraded, can anyone confirm if my understanding is correct?)
Actually, the best way to heat up the tranny oil (CVT, old school automatic, DSG, manual, et al. regardless of type) is to drive off immediately while applying a light load (wag haharurot). 10-15 seconds should be enough to get the oil circulated for mild driving conditions. As with the engine, when you start driving the faster the fluids get up to temperature, consequently saving on wear and tear as well as fuel.
Mga Sirs, I had this experience kagabi with my GLS CVT, nung morning nagcarwash ako then I tried my spare kos for the first time. When I was to start the engine nung gabi ayaw na, parang hindi nagtutuloy ung ignition. I posted sa group page sa fb to seek for some comments and naalala ko na meron pala kong nabasa sa manual regarding "hard starting" then un gumana naman. nalunod pala sa petrol. what are the possible cause kaya bakit ngkakaganun?? never ko pa n experience yun sa dati kong AT car. first time with my mirage 17++km reading.
nangyari na sa jazz ko ito dati, engine flooding ata tawag dito. minsan kasi pag sandali mo lang na-start ung engine, may natitirang unburned fuel na nag-settle dun sa tip ng spark plugs kaya ayaw nya mag-produce ng sparks during ignition. kailangan muna alisin/matuyo nung gas sa tip ng spark plug para umaandar ulit ung engine.
ako walang nakuhang lighter. yung lancer ko nagmo-moist din sya dati pero ngayn wala na.
guys, pa assist naman. ano ba ung dpat na icheck pag kukunin na ung unit? mas maganda maging handa na kesa sa huli baka madaming makalimutan. can you give me some checklist pls for gls cvt tia po!
Hi mga ka Mirage...meron na po nakapag pa PMS for 1T Km sa Citimotors Makati kamusta po service? gaano po katagal ung oil po ba is synthetic?
thanks

Found this somewhere and this is what I followed. You might not have the time to check everything, and some items might not apply to you, but you get the idea.
Delivery Checklist
(Use a pencil and check off the items that have been completed with no problems. Circle the items that were not completed satisfactorily and make notes in the margin.)
1. Does the VIN match what you agreed to purchase?
2. Is the mileage realistic, or has the dealer used the vehicle as a demo since you agreed to purchase it? (Be reasonable, but question anything greater than 150 miles.)
3. Ask the dealer personnel if any repairs or alterations have been made to the vehicle? (Accidents happen, even to new vehicles being delivered. An honest dealership will tell you, but you often have to ask.)
4. Is the exterior in perfect shape? (Not a blemish, scratch, or streak. Walk around the vehicle several times looking from as many angles as possible.)
5. Are the trim, rubstrips, decals, chrome, hood ornaments, and other exterior features present, in good shape (defect-free), and properly attached?
6. Doors, hoods, trunks, deck lids, and liftgates: Do they all work correctly? Do they seal properly? (You may not find this out until the test drive when you listen for noise.) Does the fit and finish match up between these and the rest of the body work? Do the locks work properly --are they automatic, can they be operated remotely? Does the hood release lever operate from the inside. Do you know the location? Can you open the hood yourself? Does it stay up on its own?
7. Is the engine compartment in perfect shape? Is every dip stick, plastic cover, wire harness present and properly secured? All the fluids should be at optimal levels: oil, transmission, power steering, brake, windshield wash, and coolant. There should be very little dirt and grime, and not a single sign of fluid leakage of any kind. None of the engine components should show exterior wear or replacement -- things like one spark plug wire that is a completely different shade of black should draw a red flag and a question. They should replace them all with new items if that means you'll drive the vehicle away. Question the same thing a week later and you'll get a sour look.
8. Battery: Is it filled properly? Or is it a "no-service" type? (Check the level or sight dot.) No corrosion should be present on the electrodes. It should be properly connected -- fastened to wire leads and properly secured -- tied down in the vehicle. Ask about how to jump it properly. Does it have a special separate warranty?
9. Is the trunk in perfect shape? Is the carpeting properly fastened? Do the lights work correctly? Does the internal opening button work correctly? How about the outside lock? If it has gas shocks to hold up the lid, are they working properly? Are the extras, such as cargo nets, present as you ordered?
10. Fuel System: Which side is the filler door on? Can you open it from inside the vehicle? Does it lock? What grade of gasoline does the manufacturer recommend? How big is the tank? At what level does the fuel gauge on the dash register? (Many dealer's will buy the first tank, just ask!) Does the dash have a low fuel level warning light? Is there anything special about filling this vehicle with gas (i.e. some gas caps make a ratcheting sound when properly tightened)?
11. Tires: Where is the spare tire and jack system located? Is the spare properly inflated? How far can you go on "the donut"? Is the jack present, accessible? Have you been given a briefing on the use of the jack? (And where do you install it?) If you have wheel locks, where is the lug key? Are all the tires the same and as ordered? (Some performance tires have several different speed ratings and associated cost levels. Check the specific numbers on each tire.) What is the proper air pressure? What is the tire warranty and where is it? The tires should show no signs of wear, and should be properly inflated. Tires should be scuff-free. Are the hubcaps properly affixed?
12. Is the interior in perfect shape? Carpet, headliner, seats should have no tears, stains, or damage. Get in the car (both the front and back seats) and keep your eyes peeled for problems. Try out any device that will move, bend, turn, be pushed, or pulled. Do all the seatbelts work? Are the floor mats you ordered in the car?
13. Look in the glove box. Does it open properly? Is the owner's manual included? Does it lock?
14. Lighting and Signals. Know where the light switches are, and how they work. Where is the fuse box? Check the operation of all the lighting systems: headlights (low and high beams), tail lights, emergency flashers, brake lights, backing lights, trunk light, hood light, interior lights (map lights, dome lights, glove box, reading lights, running board lights). Does the vehicle have automatic shutoff? Is it for the headlights only? How long does the dome light stay on after unlocking and locking the door? Can you dim interior lights. What about the dashboard lights? Is the ignition switch lighted? Daytime running lights? Check left and right turn signals (front and back -- you'll need a helper) proper operation, and switch positions.
15. Windows, Sunroofs and Mirrors: Make sure there are no defects (chips, cracks). Are the options installed and how they working? (Options may include rear defogger, wiper and tinting.) Proper open and close operation tested on each window. Control device operation and location -power window controls, rapid down operation? Wipers, controls, delay systems, rear window?
16. Heating Ventilation and Air Conditioning: Do you understand all the controls and features of the climate control operations and control panel? Are there special defoggers? Special filters? Multi level systems? Front and rear controls? Temperature settings, and automatic controls? Duct operation? Fan controls?
17. Sound System: Do you understand how everything operates? Adjust the controls and get sound out of each speaker. Does it sound correct to your ear? Try a cassette and CD (bring one with you). How do special features, such as equalizers, amplifiers, and trunk mounted CD tower work?
18. Do you understand operations and precautions with the safety features, such as seat belts and air bags? Do you know where each is located? What about cellular phone and navigation systems operation?
19. Driver's Seat: Do you know how to work the seat position controls and where they are located? Does the lumbar work? Note the steering wheel positioning, tilt, telescope, lock, horn, and cruise control. Examine the dashboard gauges and warning indicators -- turn the key one click and see what warning lights you get. Are these correct?
20. Dashboard and Controls: Do you understand all the gauges and what they tell you? If the gauges are digital, how do you change from English to Metric readings? Do you understand the trip odometer operation?
21. Keys: Do you have more than one set? Is the remote entry working? How does the alarm work (codes and disarmament)? Is there a panic button and cut off switch? Do the door locks have child protection?
