    Good day everyone, tanong lang po. Specially dun s mga owners na ng mirage g4 or mechanics. Im planning to buy mitsu mirage g4. An autoshop owner told me.. the mirage may overheat quickly since it has 3 cylinder engine. Kahit daw brand new pa.. may snsbi p sya na meron daw pwede tanggalin sa kung ano mang parts yun (nakalimutan ko tawag) to avoid overheat. Totoo p b ito? Gusto ko kasi tlga ang mirage g4 and of course i want to be sure bago mag next step.. thanks po in advance.

    ^3 cylinders para kaunti lang ang sinusunog na gas, yun dami ng gas na sinusunog ang nagpapainit sa makina. So kung matipid sa gas ang mirage paano naging prone sa overheat yun?

    Kapag madalas ka humataw ng 200kph madami kang susunugin na fuel, kung ganyan ka magmaneho hindi tatagal ang makina ng sasakyan mo kahit anong brand pa yan

    Kapag mahilig kang magrevolution ng makina papunta sa red line ng tachometer sigurado laspag agad ang makina mo

    Bwahahahaha....!!!
    let me guess... he wants you to have the thermostat removed?

    i have had a 3-cylinder minicar for over 3 years now. we drive it on a regular basis, even on the expressway. it does not overheat, its aircon is good, and it gives me 9-10 km/li in the traffic-strewn city.

    sorry about the bwahaha.. couldn't resist.

    kung bago ung sasakyan mo hindi yan basta basta mag ooverheat pwera nalang kung puro redline rpm mo.
    ang naobserve ko lang sa g4 kapag mainit na makina parang humihina ang hatak.

    i also noticed that.
    but exactly what that means, regarding the engine's condition, i do not know.

    The AutoShop owner you known, is just misleading you. Binibigyan ka lang nya ng maling info. And I don't know why.

So i was thingking.. if this is not a rare case then tons of g4 will have the same issue. Pero wala naman ako nbabalitaan aside from that story..

    If brand new na may defect, covered yun dapat ng warranty.

    Yung G4 namin, 2014 pa, no problems so far.

    Wala naman balita ganyan narereport online. Kahit sa Mirage Group (di ko na pangalanan), wala naman issue ng overheating.

    Bukod sa mas maingay lang ng konti yung G4 dahil 3 cylinder. Wala naman major issue ako nabalitaan.

    Baka gusto lang nyan ipaservice mo sa kanila yung car, para kunan nila ng parts

    O kaya bigla ka nyang sasabihin na mag "Vios ka nalang, may kakilala ako, makakauha kang discount".

    Sir misleading po yung information ng autoshop owner na nagsabi sa inyo. so far wala pa po akong naeencounter na overheating ng makina. good for you po na iconsider mo yung mirage g4 sa buylist mo.

    there are over 30,000 mirage and g4 owners in the philippines alone. never heard of one engine death. the 1.2L engine is offered in many other countries.

    which autoshop are you talking about?

    The mechanics auto shop/repair. He said (the owner) the engine of g4may may overheat easily as per experience they had with one of their customers. And i was like "really???" Because i still believe there are hundreds of people wanna go with g4. Including myself.
