20 Most Recent 2003 Mitsubishi Montero Sport - Page 8 Questions & Answers

Does it do this all the time or only while running the air conditioner? There are two possibilities. One, when the a/c is running, water condenses on the evaporator and it has to drain out of the box via that hose, this is normal. Two, your heater core is leaking and this is where the water is coming from.

According to the service literature I read, the 2003 Montero Sport with the 3.0 or 3.5 L engine does not have O2 sensors listed even in the maintenance schedule. The 2.4 L engine has it on the exhaust manifold though.

However, the following lists the par, though for before or after the catalytic converter:

I think that $250 to $300 is reasonable if the Oxygen sensors are stuck in there with rust and the threads are preserved by the technician. Oxygen Sensor replacement can be tricky.

Good luck on this repair.

Exhaust Manifold

REMOVAL & INSTALLATION

2.4L Engine

1. Remove or disconnect the following:
   
   
   
   • Negative battery cable
   
   CAUTION
   Wait at least 90 seconds after the negative
   battery cable is disconnected to prevent possible deployment of the air bag.
   
   
   
2. Heat cowl from the exhaust manifold
   
3. Aspirator valve assembly, if equipped
   
4. Oil dipstick and guide
   
5. Oxygen (O2S) sensor connector and ground cable, if equipped
   
6. Exhaust pipe from the manifold
   
7. Exhaust manifold and gasket from the engine
   To install:
   
   
8. Install or connect the following:
   
   
   
   • Exhaust manifold. Torque the M8 mounting nuts to 22 ft. lbs. (29 Nm) and the
     M10 mounting bolts 36 ft. lbs. (49 Nm). starting from the middle and working
     outward.
     
   • O2S sensor connector and ground cable, if equipped
     
   • Exhaust pipe to the manifold. Torque the nuts to 35ft. (49 Nm).
     
   • Aspirator valve assembly, if removed
     
   • Heat cowl to the exhaust manifold. Torque the bolts to 117 inch lbs. (13
     Nm).
     
   • Negative battery cable
   
   
9. Start the engine and check for exhaust leaks.

3.0L and 3.5L Engines

1. Remove or disconnect the following:
   
   
   
   • Negative battery cable
     
   • Exhaust pipe from the exhaust manifolds
     
   • Oil dipstick, guide and O-ring
     
   • Heat shields
     
   • Exhaust manifolds
   
   
2. Clean the gasket mounting surfaces. Inspect the manifolds for cracks,
   flatness and/or damage.
   To install:
   
   
3. Install or connect the following:
   
   
   
   • New gasket and exhaust manifold. Torque the nuts to 33 ft. lbs. (44 Nm) on
     3.0L engines and 22 ft. lbs. (29 Nm) on 3.5L engines.
     
   • Heat shield, Torque the bolts to 10 ft. lbs. (14 Nm).
     
   • Exhaust pipe to the exhaust manifolds. Torque the nuts to 35ft. (49 Nm).
     
   • Oil dipstick, guide and new O-ring
     
   • Negative battery cable
   
   
4. Start the engine and check for exhaust leaks.

If your battery light indicator went on it indicates that the battery is not charging because of either a dying battery or alternator or both!
With the red battery indicator on, the battery will eventually drain out (especially if the alternator is faulty) to the point where it will not provide the required power to the car electrical system ... thus causing it to 'sputter' and eventually die out - a sure sign it that you cannot restart the motor due to a weak of flat battery!
Hope it helps you understand the possible problem!

check the spark plug caps underneathe the manifold at the top of the engine and amake sure that the caps are all seated snugly and evenly as this has caused the car to feel as though there was a blown plug. that is estimated to cause at least 900 dollars in repair costs.

Once it is engaged unless you are hearing any unusual slipping noise there is no reason that the clutch can go bad.
Start the engine rev up asking someone to be within and switch on AC to idle, now rev up the AC. If there is no visible signs of the RPM of the compressor dropping off the clutch is good. However if there is problems relative to cooling it can be failrue of the compressor, clogged evaporator or leakage of gas.

new engine.....or you could relace the belt every 60k/5years...forget makers recc,they dont pay the bill when it breaks....

Under dash on the left driver side

The adjustment screws/nuts should be located either on the top of the headlamp assembly, behind the headlamp assembly, or near the frame rail by the radiator support.

You will have vertical adjustment screws for each independent beam (separate highs and separate lows, but will be same screw if highs and lows are the same bulb). You may also have additional horizontal adjustment screws as well

Park your car on a level ground 30 feet from a wall and measure the height from the ground to the bulb and mark on a wall (do this for highs beams and low beams if the bulbs are separate, if highs and lows are the same bulb, only do it for the lows)

For Low Beams: If the headlights read VOR, then aim the brightest part or cutoff part just below the mark on the wall. If it says VOL or nothing, aim them 2 inches below the mark on the wall.

For High Beams (if separate from low beams): Aim the headlight directly at the line you marked on the wall.

sorry to put it this way but WHO CARES.just change the belt every 60k.regardless of what the makers say....(they get you to pay for the bits when they break dont they.)

Hi,
The reason for code po154 is that there is no activity detected on the Bank 2 Sensor 1 . But there is also a bulletin that reprograms the computer for a false readout. Basically you need to monitor the O2 sensor action. If it looks in good condition then the reprogram needs to be done. If not, you need to replace the O2 sensor.

Thank you !!

well ..

• remove injector rail by unbolting

• change seals
• replace injectors
• replace rail
• bolt up..

head gasket ,as too cost?? shop around for quotes

it be cheaper for you to buy the brake light module

Just voluntarily fire the alarm off yourself each nite before you go to bed. Just hit the horn alarm button and let it blow once and hit it again to stop it. If you do this each nite it won't go off in the middle of the nite.

can be alot of things need to have car put on a scanner to get a trouble code and then you will know where to start Advance auto parts or Autozone will do that for free if you have one around you

you may want to have the alternator checked and make sure that the cables are tight and not coroded

there is squirl cage i call it mounted on fan motor is is the blower something caught in it or blades come apart
