1)when someone is sitting on the rear seat. it creates some sound. and nowadays, the leaf springs behind starts to emit some squeking sound as well. i have tried spraying WD-40 to the joints but it doesnt work.
2) when i start the car in the morning. the aircon gaves out some burnt smell. but after awhile it will be gone.
im wondering if anyone have the same issue?
was going to send to mitsubishi service centre. just hope to get some opinion here first.=)

Hi Leon,
I am driving 2012 2.5 AT. Got that sound after two weeks I got it. Sent in for 1k service, complained to mechanic at SC, he removed bush from the leaf spring. Noise gone.
Burnt smell not sure, but my air con doesn't seem to be cold at times. Will file a complaint on next service.

hi kevin,
thanks for the tips. will definitely take note of that in my next service.
and i will post updates here as well about the burnt smell.
I wondering K&N type drop in high flow air filter will do more good or harm to our triton engine? My triton had vector chip installed.
Pros: 1. Less black smoke when we tekan? More air into combustion chamber to burn fuel = less black smoke 2. Better throttle respond? 3. More power compare to stock air filter? More fuel burned = more power 4. No need to replace air filter anymore because it is washable? How long (mileage) it need to be service?
Cons: 1. More dirt goes into Engine? Filtration not good compare to stock filter. 2. Void warranty?
