What is better to choose instead of Lancer X. Second Hands: Mitsubishi Lancer X - Where is the Japanese Quality? Mitsubishi Lancer 10 engine problems

Lancer X appeared in 2007 and is well sold to this day. His appearance, made to taste to many motorists, resembles a fighter. Despite the interesting exterior, the car has also other useful qualities that make the car popular even in the secondary market.

The body of the "tenth" lancer does not differ from superplication, because the metal is used quite thin. The paintwork also does not differ in strength, so it is very often possible to meet scratches and chip cars. Even pebbles on the road can slightly damage the rear arches, especially since the anti-gravine coating is often spacked on the lancers.

But for those who decided to buy in the secondary market and is going to examine the body in search of rust, it is worth starting from the trunk, it is there most often it is formed, because condensate accumulates in the luggage compartment, and the water is seeping through the area of \u200b\u200bthe rear lights in small quantities .

Lancers Over time, the front headlights fill up, on the fog lights, the mirrored elements will be burned out, and the bulbs on the rear headlights are often exhausted, so they will have to be replaced, but during the replacement it is necessary to be careful not to break the corner of the light filter.

Salon "Tenth" Lancer

Inside the car uses hard plastic, which can overreach with time. As regards the chairs, they use a fabric that is almost not worn, but armrests on the doors and between the armchairs are rubbed.

In Lancer, a very simple electrical equipment is used, but despite the simplicity after a few years (3-5) a motor of the stove fan can be held, if it is replaced, then buying a new one will cost about $ 90. It is better to make a replacement before the onset of cold weather, because in the winter there is a high probability that it will fail.

It also happens that on some copies, climates control, drives, adjustable mirrors over time.

On many lancers x after 80-100 thousand mileage kilometers, especially in the city, begin to refuse the steering buttons to correct the problem - you will have to replace the wiring rings on the steering block, they cost about 30 dollars.

Engine on Lancer

As for the engines, there are several different options here. The most problem is considered a gasoline engine with a volume of 1.5 liters 4a91, a lot of cars with such a motor - about 30%. After 100 thousand kilometers of the mileage in the city, this motor begins to eat oil - about 5 liters per 10,000 km, due to the fact that the piston rings were stuck. To eliminate such a problem, you will have to spend about 120 dollars on new rings.

But if you follow the car, especially after it drove 60000 km, check the oil level cut. If suddenly it is noted that the oil decreases, then without delay it is necessary to bite the rings in the composition for the roundment.

As for other motors, such as the 1.6-liter 4A92 and the most common - 1.8-liter 4B10 and 2 liter 4B11, then they do not consume oil.

In general, on the "tenth" Lancer reliable motors, they calmly withstand 300,000 mileage kilometers, and if the engine does not kill, the motor and 500 thousand will be able to roll back.

IN engines Lancer X. The system of changing the MIVEC gas distribution phases is used, which is reliable and does not fail, there is also a chain in the timing chain, which is not needed for a very long time.

There are some weak points in these engines - a fairly weak throttle block, it has a flap to be clogged, so it must be cleaned every 40-50 thousand km. A new such unit will cost approximately $ 400. Next, after passing 60-70 thousand km. It is worth seeing how the drive is the drive of the hinged units, it is important to monitor not only behind the belt, and also behind the rollers.

As a rule, after passing 120-150 thousand km. May leak the front crankshaft gland. It should be changed, the price of it is within 30 dollars. In addition, failures in the ignition system may occur due to ignition coils. Over time, these coils should also be changed, and they cost about 150 American rubles. And if we consider cars that were issued until 2010, then these machines found condensate on the oxygen sensor.

There are also situations when the tight ring between the graduation system and the collector is destroyed due to its unreliability, then the car begins to make sounds similar to diesel rusty. Such an annular seal is not expensive - about 10 dollars.

Also in the "tenth" Lancer is considered to be the engine of the heater, the benefit that it is not difficult to change, as it is under the glove compartment.

Appearance and what spoils it

If you look closely, it can be seen how the leashes of janitors are seated. Among other unpleasant moments, the protective film is lagging behind the doorway, also the film from the rear arches is already dugs almost immediately.

And thanks to the machine, scratches may easily appear on the machine, which, of course, the appearance of the machine can easily appear on the machine.

Boxes gear

Lancers with a 1.6 liter engine are equipped with a 4-speed Jatco automatic machine F4A series, which has a rich history - it was created by another 90s, the design is quite simple, so it is distinguished by reliability, if you change the oil in the box times 90000 km This automaton will drive at least 300,000 km.
With regards to 5-speed mechanics, which is installed on the Lancers with a 1.5-liter engine (GetRag F5M), there are some problems here.

First, the clutch will have to change several times, the clutch kit will cost about $ 60. It is also known that the bearings of the primary shaft and the release bearing are weak, many owners of Lancers changed them still under warranty, because they are caravan.

But the mechanical 5-speed AISIN F5M is more durable, but after 100,000 km can sometimes eat. In winter, all mechanical boxes that are installed on Lancers are becoming more tight, because the lubricant from frosts thickens, so that riding even in winter is more comfortable, you just need to use frost-resistant lubricant.

There are also a complete set with the Jatco JF011E variator, which showed itself from the best side, it was designed in 2005 and was used on models of such brands as Mitsubishi, Nissan, Suzuki, Renault, and even American Jeep and Dodge. Of course, sometimes selector gives failures and happens that the gearbox modes are not switched due to poor contact.

Also, when driving on the variator, it is important to remember that the variator box does not tolerate the sharp blocking of the wheels when the wheels during parking are stuck in the brow, for example. During a sharp locking of the wheels, this situation occurs: scratches appear on the pulleys due to the belt checked, the pulleys themselves begin to deform the belt, after which the variator begins to buck.

Such a stepless gearbox will be repaired at all cheaply - about $ 2,000, plus it is still necessary to add the cost of the belt, bearings, shkivof, and there are cases that they have to change the gears of the planetary transfer and even the oil pump. How to determine whether to do the repair of the box - if jerks or slip will appear, then it's time to scatter.

And on the other hand, if we relate to the box carefully, do not tear it and do not overheat, follow the cleanliness, as well as change special, not cheap (20 dollars per liter) DIA QUEEN CVT-J1 oil with a frequency of 70,000 km., Then the variator The box will last for a very long time - no less than a machine can work - about 250,000 km.

And even, even if it is very rare, but there are lancers with a 4WD all-wheel drive transmission, there is an electronic control and a coupling that connects the rear drive. The same system is used on outlanders, it is famous for reliability and does not create special problems.

Suspension on the "tenth" Lancer

The suspension on the design is the same as on the "ninth" Lancer - in front - the rack McPherson, and the back of the multi-dimension is a fairly strong chassis, but you should not ride a serious mud. So that the suspension lasts longer, we must try to ride more or less clean roads. If you ride in sand and salt, then after some time there will be a rack, and stabilizer bushings, and even springs. Because, rubber supports between the bottom turns and the supporting glasses are wiping.

Also do not like dirt and bearings of the slip of the front racks, when turning the steering wheel, they will produce either a creaking, or crunch, and it will be changed to cost - $ 50 for each support.
As for the front racks, their price is 200 dollars apiece. There were such launched cases when these racks did not depart over 20,000 km. But in cars that were released after 2011, the racks became more long-playing - almost 3 times longer began to serve.

The developers did not stand still and in the Lancers released in 2014 on shock absorbers installed anthers who seriously began to protect the rod and gland from dirt. Also, in new cars have become more abrupt rear bearings on the hubs.

Despite this, during operation, various car sores are manifested, requiring car owner intervention and financial costs.

Some problems, such as the massener, are characteristic only for some Lancer X models, but there are such weaknesses that are inherent in the entire auto line, for example, insufficient cabin insulation.

The most problematic is the engine with a volume of 1.5 liters. Even with timely, proper maintenance, its piston rings are locked. This causes increased oil consumption, increasing pressure of crankcase gases, extrusion of lubricant through seals and seals, decreased compression, increase fuel consumption and deterioration of dynamic characteristics.

Very often, with such a problem, the owners of the half-beam power units are faced with a run from 50 to 100 thousand km. Cutting or replacing piston rings only for a while solves the problem. The overhaul of the motor at 1.5 liters also comes sooner when the odometer shows 100-150 thousand km.

Larger motors are not subject to male. They have a fairly large resource and technically more perfect.

Problems in the steering

The steering rack begins to knock with a small mileage. This is connected with the insufficient strength of the regular sleeve. As a rule, once a high-quality repair resolves for a long time eliminates this problem.

Removed steering rack

The electric power steering is completed only 1.5 liter modification of Lancer 10. Unlike GUR, EUR constantly annivers the driver's faults. Problems arise both on mechanical and at the electric level.

Faults in electronics and electrics

The ETACS electronic control unit is very sensitive to the correct use of relays and fuses. Installing non-original elements very often displays them.

The relay that is responsible for heating the rear window and mirrors is often melted. Also, its contacts are oxidized, which worsens conductivity. Installing a more powerful relay after some time of operation leads to damage in the control unit.

The backlight of the buttons is partially on the LEDs, partly on the lamps with a non-standard connector. Light bulbs are prone to rapid burnout, so the problems of lack of indication on Lancer X are often found.

Other problems

With noise insulation badly in all modifications Lancer 10. In the process of movement, you can hear both the sound of the engine and the sounds of the wheels. The shortcomings of noise insulation are complemented by the "crickets" of the plastic of the cabin. Over time, the gaps become uniform.

Salon Mitsubishi Lancer 10

The paint coating does not cause special complaints, but the foci of rust can easily find out the machines until 2011. Later models have better anti-corrosion resistance, but on the surface of the LKM, you can still see scratches and scratches.

The appearance of rust foci in places of damage to paint and varnish

Plastic headlights gradually grieves and acquiring scratches. At the first stage, malfunction data is eliminated by polishing. In early copies, the elimination of light transmission is possible only to replace the sweat element.

Potted front headlights

More rarely encountered problems are reduced to the table below.

Mitsubishi Lancer Tenth Generation was first introduced in January 2007, and in the spring of the same year began to be sold. Lancer, in one of the translating options from English, means - Ulan. Strong spirit emphasize the appearance of the car and reliability indicators.

Engines

Initially, Mitsubishi Lancer X was offered with three gasoline engines with a working volume of 1.5 liters (109 hp), 1.8 liters (143 hp) and 2.0 liters (150 hp). In 2011, a 1.6 liter engine appeared (117 hp). And in 2012, after restyling, the motors of 1.5 l and 2.0 liters were removed from the line.

All Lancer engines have the timing chain drive with a resource of more than 300 thousand km. The overall problems can be attributed to the "sweating" front seals of the crankshaft when running more than 100-150 thousand km. If you do not hurry with replacement, then the oil that fell on the damper pulley of the drive belt can lead it out of order (soften damper). Then to 600-700 rubles for the gland and 300 rubles for work will have to add about 5 thousand rubles for the new pulley.

When running more than 60-100 thousand km, the sealing ring of the exhaust pipeline is often roasted, because of which Lancer begins to "growl". The new ring at the "Officials" costs about 1-1.5 thousand rubles. In the online stores of spare parts Ring cheaper - 400-600 rubles. For work on his replacement will have to give about 1-1.5 thousand rubles. Oxygen sensors may require replacement after 100-150 thousand km.

The engine Lancer x working volume of 1.5 liters when running more than 100-150 thousand km sometimes begins to sweep an oil in the amount of 0.1-0.3 liters per 1 thousand km. The cause of oil "gluttony" is a rings. Often, "Check" pops up on the display of the onboard computer - mistakes arise due to the features of the work of the ECU's work algorithm. After updating the software software, the last version of the rapid errors no longer appears.

Transmission

A 5-speed manual gearbox has been attached to any motors. MCPP installed on Mitsubishi Lancer with an engine 1.5 liters and 2008 had constructive defects and did not differ in high reliability. Among the common faults are the current shelters of the drives, extraneous noise and failure of the first transmission synchronizer. I had to face problems when runs more than 40-70 thousand km. Many owners of Mitsubishi Lancer X with MCPP complain of an impetus when moving with the 1st on the 2nd transmission or "snacking" the switching lever in the first transmission position. There is no particular way to solve the decision. Some helped the replacement of the clutch, others assure that everything passed itself.

A "AUTOMAT" was installed in a pair with 1.5 and 1.6 liters engines, and the "variator" with motors of 1.8 and 2.0 liters. There are no big comments to both Mitsubishi Lancer automatic transmission, boxes are quite reliable.

Chassis

In the Lancer suspension, the front shock absorbers are first surrendered - traces of leaky appear on the rod. The average resource of the rack is about 50-80 thousand km. For the new one will have to give about 2-2.5 thousand rubles. Rear shock absorbers walk longer - over 100-120 thousand km. In addition, with time, the anthers of depreciation racks begin to "rod". Following the front shock absorbers, there is a turn of bushings and racks of transverse stability stabilizers - about 60-80 thousand km. The support bearings of the front racks are leaving about 90-120 thousand km (600 rubles).

Lancer X front hub bearings will serve more than 80-120 thousand km, rear - more than 100-150 thousand km. The front bearings in the original are about 3-3.5 thousand rubles, analogues - 1.5-2 thousand rubles. Rear bearings are changing only assembly with the hub. The original hub will cost 10 thousand rubles, analogue - about 5 thousand rubles. The cost of replacing one bearing is estimated at about 800 rubles.

Lancer suspension levers walk more than 100-150 thousand km. The cost of one original lever is about 5-7 thousand rubles. By the same time, "dying" balls. Avoiding expensive replacement of the lever will help the counterfeiting ball. The cost of the ball is about 900 rubles. You should not repeat this procedure on one lever for security reasons. When running more than 150-200 thousand km Many owners of Mitsubishi Lancel X note the rear springs.

Steering thrust and tips walk more than 60-90 thousand km. The original tip will cost 1-1.5 thousand rubles, the thrust is 2-2.5 thousand rubles. After 80-120 thousand km, it may sound or flocked the steering rail. The new rail costs about 40-50 thousand rubles, restored - about 20-30 thousand rubles.

When running more than 30-50 thousand km, the caliper is often beginning. To eliminate foreign sounds, it is necessary to replace the lower guide caliper to the top with a rubber seal. Behind the back of the parking brake pads can also grieve. After their adjustment, the knocks go. Mitsubishi Lancer X 2008-2009 release with the "automatic" and "variator" fell under a response campaign to replace the brake cylinder.

Other problems and malfunctions

Body Iron Mitsubishi Lancer Stalls to the harmful effects of the aggressive medium and not prone to corrosion. And the paintwork, traditionally for modern machines, soft and easily scratched.

The Mitsubishi Lancer X salon starts to creak over time. A plate of plastic can accompany the rattling of the hood stop at the fastening site to the body. Inserts for aluminum, leather steering trim and gear lever are wiping through 60-100 thousand km.

Electrician Mitsubishi Lancer without surprises. Cars 2008-2009 release fell under a response campaign due to improper operation of the freedane shock sensors. Sometimes it starts to "bug" the fuel level pointer.

Conclusion

In terms of reliability, Mitsubishi Lancer showed himself worthy. Only Mitsubishi Lancer with a 1.5 liter engine spoils the statistics.

Mitsubishi Lancer X has gained popularity among young drivers thanks to their design and glory of the older brother Mitsubishi Lancer 9, which was famous for reliability and wound character. But did the 10th "Lancer" took over all positive qualities, was it more reliable and more attractive for the consumer? - This is to find out in the article.

Short story

Mitsubishi Lancer X began to be produced in 2007 in the "Sedan" and "Hatchback" bodies. It is worth noting that the car is produced and going for the Russian market, exclusively in Japan.

By the Russian consumer until 2010, cars were available, equipped with motors with a working volume of 1.5 liters with a capacity of 109 horsepower; 1.8 liters with a capacity of 143 horsepower; and 2.0 liters with a capacity of 150 horsepower.

After restylene in 2010, the company revised the line of the delivered models to Russia, and added a modification with an engine of 1.6 liters and a capacity of 117 horsepower, but removed a modification with a two-liter engine and a modification with the hatchback body.

General provisions

According to masters from professional stations of maintenance - the lancer "tenth" generation is distinguished by unpretentiousness and reliability. However, according to the owners, the car has many nuances and some disadvantages.

It is noted that the quality of the body of the Mitsubishi Lancer X is very worthy, and there is no complaints, but the quality of the paintwork leaves much to be desired. According to the experienced owners of the car - paint on the car is very gentle, and you can get a deep scratch from random touch with the keys. Therefore, it is not necessary to hope for the absence of chips from pebbles and small scratches by car with mileage. When buying this model, it is desirable to book it with a transparent film or covered with heavy-duty varnish. But the claims for rotting the body did not arise.

There is also a serious drawback with frankly weak noise insulation. According to the owners, for unprepared drivers, riding in the dirt road or hitting the wheels can cause a heart attack from unexpectedly loud fraction on the bottom and wheeled arches. On the one hand, the problem is not so serious, but the decision can do in 30 - 40 thousand rubles.

And most importantly, the new generation lost its "RASAL" manageability, and the car at a speed of 140 km / h begins to swim along the road. And the driver has to constantly "catch" the car. In addition, with rapid overcoming steep turning (90 degrees at a speed of 50-60 km / h), the car lies the rear axle.

Also, there is a problem in the fact that the car is very popular with car accidents. Although such dubious popularity and it is difficult to explain (the car is not very expensive, and problems with it in the secondary market and the shortage with new and used parts - no), but the situation is complicated by a very simple full-time anti-theft system, which is not a problem even for novice craftsmen . Therefore, it is very important to equip the car with additional security systems.

In addition, at least a car is considered reliable, but its maintenance and repair can not be called budget. Original spare parts are very expensive, and Taiwanese analogs have shown themselves from the best side.

I also wanted to note that the car is quite reliable in comparison with modern competitors, but besides some of the well-known problems, there are several constructive flaws. So for example, the air conditioning system of the car is working properly and reliably throughout the entire operating time, but the location of the radiator of the air conditioner system failed. As in many cars, the air conditioner radiator is placed in front of the main radiator of the car cooling system, but is located at such a distance that the gap between the two elements is clogged with mud and garbage. Therefore, the owners are forced to clean it every 50 - 60 thousand km, and have to completely remove radiators.

Quality Salon

Surprisingly, but here the Japanese retreated from their principle of performance at a high level. In addition, the salon is distinguished by frankly cheap plastic finish, so also the design of the interior decoration is suitable for cars from the 90s.

Plastic used to finish the trim of the doors and the center console on one side is soft, which reduces scratch resistance, on the other hand it is surprisingly loudly noise and scraps. Therefore, the emergence of numerous "crickets" will not be amazing.

Also, some owners note the insufficient quality of the standard audio system, but this problem is possible due to a lack of noise insulation. In some cases, an interesting fault is manifested - during the cold season, the central locking lock is stopped on the rear doors.

Otherwise, the car's salon has all the qualities of modern inexpensive cars. But even in new machines, quality and design remain the same.

Quality Electricians and Electronics

As for the electronic and electric car filling, in this regard, except for a couple of comments - there will be no problems.

Approximately 150,000 km of mileage, can oxidize and rotate the contacts of the frontal shock sensors that are responsible for the operation of airbags. But the problem is that contacts are not amenable to restore, and have to fully change the sensors. Therefore, when a warning indication appears on the instrument panel (SRS) is a priority place to verify the fault.

Also, there are unusual cases when the harness of the wires behind the air filter is larched. In this case, you can expect any symptoms and any problems with the car electronics.

Well, the most common problem with electrical stuffing in this car is heated rear view mirrors and rear windows. Even on new cars, he may fail, while starting to warm the fuse block in places where the relay is installed (heating can reach up to 83 degrees Celsius, and even start melting wiring, in a single case, marked melting tracks on the door trim). Naturally, a specific smell of burnt wiring may appear in the cabin, but the indicator on the button and the cut-on, turning off the heating after 20 minutes - will work normally. Most often, this is to blame the power fuse 25a - 30a and the contact site. Their replacement will cost 700 to 2000 rubles depending on the service and the cost of components.

Power Units Mitsubishi Lancer X

According to masters from car services and experienced car owners - the power units themselves are reliable, although not without nuances, but all the problems arise due to insufficient capacity and predisposition of the car to the aggressive driving style. Therefore, for rapid acceleration and higher power, drivers have to squeeze all the "juices" of low-power motors. This leads to serious problems and rapid wear.

This affects motors with a working volume of 1.5 liters 4A91, which turned out to be weak for this car. Due to the permanent work at the limit of its capabilities, the motor is rarely experiencing a border of 150,000 km.

With a constant maximum load, the engine begins to actively "eat" oil, which leads to a rapid clogging of oil canals in the pistons and to climb the rings. Naturally. This leads to even greater consumption of automotive oil and accelerating the failure of a catalytic neutralizer.

Sooner or later, the driver may not follow the rapidly reduced volume of engine oil, which will lead to the overhaul of the unit or its full replacement. Although the manufacturer has released a new series of oil dialing rings on the pistons, but it did not lead to an absolute solution to the problem. After all, the operation of the motor remains at the limit of its capabilities.

But it is worth noting that the manufacturer produces repair kits with a complete set of a piston group of the second size. But learning the cost of such a set, most of the owners of the tenth Lancer will disappear all the desire to repair it.

As for the later vehicle version (since 2012), which is completed with the engine 1.6 4A92, then there is no unambiguous response. The engine is not much different from the previous one, but has not yet managed to show himself from a bad side. Although many motorists look skeptical on him.

Power units with a working volume of 1.8 and 2.0 liters are more reliable and lost the sores of weaker versions. According to modern standards, their resource without repairing 200,000 km is a normal indicator.

But all the motors unite the only nuances of operation - they are very sensitive to various kinds of pollution of the throttle valve and the absolute pressure sensor in the intake manifold. At the same time, the car begins "inadequately" to respond to the gas pedal, unevenness begins to manifest itself in work or a trottery, or begins to start badly. To solve the problem, it is fairly thoroughly rinse the throttle and clean the sensor. But it is worth considering that it is better to entrust it to professionals.

In addition, on some copies a feature is manifested, it is a feature, and not a problem. They warmly warm up in winter, but it's not worth worrying about this.

It is worth adding about the resource of the catalytic neutralizer - it is at least 100,000 km, further work depends on the manner of driving and servicing the car. But many drivers do not repair this node, but put an inexpensive cheating that emits the normal operation of the neutralizer for the onboard computer of the machine.

The quality of the steering mechanism of the car

Models of the first years of release with a 1.5 liter motor were completed with electric power amplifiers, which were not rarely faced. Therefore, when buying a car of 2007-2008, it is necessary to specify the question of this element. It rarely happened, but still happened, the electric amplifier could refuse completely. Or stop working when turning the steering wheel into one of the sides. At the same time, the mechanism is absolutely not amenable to repair, because of which it was necessary to change the entire mechanism assembly. But besides rare cases of failure, the mechanism showed itself quite reliable and hassle does not deliver the car on the entire service life.

Cars with 1.8 and 2.0 liters motors have been completed by the classic steering hydraulic system, which works as a Swiss watch. Subject to the regulatory replacement of hydraulic fluid every 90 thousand km. The only one may occur in the backbone of the return supply of fluid from the rail to the pump, due to the fact that the tubes can be pulled out in the area of \u200b\u200bfasteners to the steering mechanism.

But the whole picture of reliability, a little, spoils a relatively small resource of steering and tips. In this car, it does not exceed 60,000 km.

Please note that some Mitsubishi Lancer X buyers complained that the car leads to the left or right side. At the same time, the angle of collapse and convergence of wheels, rubber and other elements were normal. Therefore, before the final purchase of a car with mileage - be sure to make several test trips along a smooth and straight road. Since, getting rid of this "Features" will not work.

The quality of the suspension and chassis of the car

There were no critical problems in the chassis. Therefore, you can only pay attention to some nuances and the average service life of the elements.

For example, as in the previous version of the model, the service life of silent blocks on the front levers does not exceed 60,000 km. But it is worth considering when replacing that a ball support resource is limited on average 90,000 - 100,000 km, and it changes only with the lever. Therefore, think about the feasibility of replacing only rubber bands.

Front shock absorbers show a standard level of reliability for modern cars. Their resource is from 120,000 km, but replacement is recommended to be carried out in a pair with support bearings.

And it is worth mentioning about the small resource of the racks and bushings of the front and rear stabilizer. They will have to be changed every 30,000 - 40,000 km, or the appearance of a knock on small bodies and pits - inevitably.

Lancer X Quality

The most weak link in the whole car was the variator, which was offered to a pair of motors with working volumes of 1.8 and 2.0 liters. Despite all precautions and careful attitude towards the variator transmission, she could serve about 150,000 km.

Although the repair is possible, but only a qualified specialist and replacement of many original spare parts, which will cost the "round" amount, and all the costs of repair and restoring the transmission can pull 120,000 rubles. Therefore, it was more profitable to search for and acquiring transmission options in the secondary market, which accounted for up to 60,000 rubles.

In addition, the variator strongly suffered from overheating due to the unsuccessful location of the oil radiator on dorestayling models. For some reason, the manufacturer placed it in front of the right wheel. Immediately behind the plastic fender, which ensured the great access of dirt and water to it. Therefore, after each winter season, it was necessary to spend the radiator, removing and washing it, but it was complicated by the fact that this radiator was subject to corrosion, and had an unpleasant feature - to 120,000 km could be chopped by the oil supply fitting. Therefore, the masters were selected an analogue of the radiator from Hyundai, which accounted for 7,000 rubles, instead of 20,000 rubles from the original.

But "miracles" did not stop after restyling the model. For some reason, the automaker decided to remove the variator radiator at all - as an excess detail. This led to more frequent cases of overheating, and accordingly, the failure of the unit. But the domestic masters came to install the radiator, as in previous versions, using the same analogue (good, regular fasteners were left). At the same time, it was necessary to change the lid of the variator, which lost two additional taps for circulation of oil.

It is worth remembering that the variator transmission is very respecting the careful attitude and a quiet ride, and absolutely does not tolerate shock loads. Such as a sharp start with wheelchair or sharp braking.

The mechanical gearbox for five steps was present in all vehicles of the car, but various models for vehicles were used with more powerful or more weak motors. In terms of reliability, there are no complaints on both models of mechanical transmissions. The only nuance is the need to replace transmission oil every 100,000 km.

The automatic transmission into four steps is represented by a time-tested model that is reliable as a tank. Therefore, even the wizard at maintenance stations could not remember any case of repair. According to the manufacturer's recommendations - oil must be changed every 90,000 mileage.

Output

Mitsubishi Lancer X is an average car from which you want to expect an excellent "Japanese" quality, but in return to receive an average car that does not have special differences from other inexpensive design. Therefore, when choosing a car in the secondary market, you can safely look closely to the models of other manufacturers.

But if the desire or case is forced to buy exactly the Lancer X, then you can recall several main points:

1) This car is not intended for street or professional races, even though his design and stereotypes are pushing to such behavior.

2) You should not expect a luxurious interior decoration from it, asceticism is characteristic of this model.

3) With any malfunction, you should not look at the parts of Taiwanese Analogs. Fortunately, in Russia there is no shortage of used parts, but the new original is very expensive.

4) Only the careful attitude towards the car will allow them to enjoy them, and do not experience negative feelings for the quality of the car.

Mitsubishi Group produce Lancer X cars with a large selection of power plants, satisfying any consumer requests. Efficiency is capable of providing motors with a volume of 1.5 liters, but if the car owner is desire to have the most dynamic car, then it is necessary to make its choice towards motors on 2.0 and 2.4 liters.

Engines work in a pair with different types of transmission. On Mitsubishi Lancer 10 you can find the five-speed mechanics, and the variator.

At the beginning of the issue of Mitsubishi Lancer 10, the engine line was planned to begin with a low-power 1.3 liter motor. There was not enough power for a sufficiently dynamic ride, therefore, from the mass production of Lancer X with such a power unit, the manufacturer had to abandon.

A more powerful engine, which still fell into mass production was a 1.5 liter engine 4G15 with a capacity of 109 horsepower. It provided acceptable acceleration, but its resource was insufficient. This is associated with constructive disadvantages and high sensitivity of the motor to the quality of oil and the frequency of its replacement.

In 2011, to replace an unsuccessful half-liter motor Mitsubishi Group, it starts installing power plants with a volume of 1.6 liters on Lancer X. The capacity increased to 117 horsepower did the dynamics better and overclocking up to 100 km / h reduced. The new engine was successful and managed in 2012 to fully displace 1.5 liter option.

The appearance of Mitsubishi Lancer 10 sports, which requires an appropriate power unit into a motor compartment. Therefore, the line appeared in the rurs having even greater power. The first of this is 4B10 engine with a volume of 1.8 liters and 143 horses. The second engine was the two-liter Motor 4B11, which had a power of 150 liters. from. Both engines were developed in close cooperation with KIA-Hyundai specialists, so the international markets also have the names of G4KC and G4KD, respectively.

In 2012, a two-liter motor stopped used on Lancer 10. This is associated with both increased taxation of a more voluminous motor and with a smaller liter power of the power plant.

For the North American Consumer, Lancer 10 is produced with a 2.4 liter engine. The same motor is applied on. A turbine is also used with it, which allows to reach 176 horsepower. Tuning this power plant brings an increase in power up to 190 hp without loss of resource. The motor was developed in conjunction with KIA-Hyundai and received international designations G4KE and 4B12.

Characteristics of cars with various power plants

The best efficiency shows Mitsubishi Lancer x 1.5 MT. The average gasoline consumption when moving in mixed mode is about 6.5 liters per 100 km. Upon city movement, fuel consumption increases to 8.2 liters. Departure on the track will be accompanied by the smallest consumption, which is not more than 5 liters.

Using an automatic transmission on Mitsubishi Lancer 10 1.5 AT increases fuel consumption. 100 kilometers on the highway will require 6 liters. In the city stream, the car will consume 8.9 liters. In the case of a mixed motion mode, fuel consumption will be about 7 liters. Overclocking until hundreds will range from 11.2 for mechanics up to 15.3 in the case of at.

With 1.6 liters engines, a classic automatic transmission can be changed to 4 steps and mechanics for 5 gears. The Lancer 10 sedan with such a motor has the characteristics displayed in the table below.

The engine capacity of 1.8 liters contributes not economical, but a dynamic ride.

With 2.0 liter engines produced a wide variety of cars Lancer X. This includes all-wheel drive 4WDs and cars with a sports bias of Ralliart, the release of which has been established since 2008. The gasoline consumption is 100 kilometers of the path for various Lancer 10 models displayed in the table below.

Acceleration up to 100 kilometers per hour When using the engine 2.0, it was possible to do less than 10 seconds. Engine characteristics and gearboxes are as sharpened as possible for the best speakers.

Engine resource and typical problems arising during operation

The most problematic is 1.5 liter motor. The failure of the design led the engine that the engine loses compression at 50-60 thousand on the odometer. This is connected with the location of the piston rings. To eliminate the malfunction, you will need to diagnose, cutting, and in some cases a complete motor bulkhead.

Frequently often 1.5 liter engine scares a car owner check engine. A check is burning at no time due to problems with the engine, how much because of errors in the firmware. Updating software ECU solves this problem. The electrical circuit will also sometimes fail.

The most lowest motor is most sensitive to lubricant quality. Even with all the terms of the oil change, the operation of the engine will come when run from 120 to 150 thousand km. The resource of the power plant is extremely small. When running more than 80 thousand km, extraneous noise is observed. Besides the fact that the engine works loudly, it also troit often. The power plant was so unsuccessful that Mitsubishi Group had to remove it from production.

Silence unit 1.6 liters after 100,000 km begins to eat oil. The massener is from 100 to 300 grams per 1000 km. Motor about 200 thousand km lives, after which the overhaul is required.

Engine 1.8 does not have hydrotherapists. After 120 thousand km, problems with adjusting valve gaps begin.

1.8 liter motor cylinder head

The capacity of 1.8 has the greatest resource among the entire range of motors. The bulkhead may be required when running more than 300 thousand on the odometer.

The main malfunction of a two-liter motor is to clog the catalyst. To eliminate the problem, you will need to put a special insert. The spider not only replaces the standard catalyst, but also reduces the werving of exhaust gases. The resource 2.0 of the engine is about 250-280 thousand km.

The feasibility of repair and replacement for a contract motor

An unequivocal answer is that better repair of the native or bu contract engine does not exist. Much depends on what state the engine block. If there is thermal distortion of cylinders, it is recommended to look at the acquisition of a motor taken from another car. The price in this case will range from 20 to 50 thousand rubles.

Acquire spare parts. It makes sense if the motor requires surface repair, or with confidence that the overhaul will give a sufficient resource. The cost of overhaul is from 10 to 20 thousand rubles. If it is assumed to perform operations with your own hands, then the car owner must know the device of the power unit.
