Hi bro,

what is the reason that Mitsu had this steering column recall? Did you experience any problem that this recall for? Thx.

some free play, knocking noise especialy at low speed and when stopping

they changed the whole steering column length. it is like a 1-m long shaft rod assembly

Dang, that sucks. Worst thing that car owner are afraid of is sending your Triton to a service center and the car comes out differently. Scratches, bolt loose noise, or even worst, performance affect damage. Mind telling me which SC is this? So I can avoid going into this SC. You may Pm if you want to keep their name a secret.  icon_rolleyes.gif (or not..)

Thanks. My white Triton still alive. Served me well in outstation traveling. Till today (2 years+) so far no problem thumbup.gif

Queries: Guys do you usually change your black oil at 10k mileage? Despite how the foreman tells me 10k and so on, I tried changing at alternate 5k and then 10k, using fully synthetic oil. TBH, I feel the performance is smoother if change at every 5k. Might be "terasa" or anything, but somehow it feels safer to pump in fresh "blood". What is your usual practices?

Hi bro,

It seems that my steering problem is not the same as yours and is minor if compare to yours. I can live with it, tired of purposely going to complain again. Might just wait until next service then 1 short complain again or change other service center. Thx for your sharing.
