Great post describing same parts smile.gif. I'm wondering if the following parts are shared with other models:
1- V-Belt
2- wheel bearing.
3- Suspension.

I recently have the "Service brake" failure on my HUD and am thinking of flushing the brake fluid and replacing the pads. I was quoted 1.04k for the original pads - now I'm going to get it replaced with Waja parts smile.gif.

My steering rack failed 3 years ago - luckily I had C&C plead my case to MB and got it replaced for free.

All the above 100% compatible with 2004 Mitsubishi Colt. Take the old items and pay a visit to many spare parts shops along Jalan Segambut or Jalan Ipoh. For suspension, u can also opt for custom made by Titan for around RM 3k.

Service brake failure means the sensors are dirty, ensure u clean those first before putting on new pads or else u will get the same warning.

For those looking for door visors, I may have a solution - custom made / order to fit. No cutting or curi from another car.

Hey guys, I should be looking at a 2nd hand unit sometime this week, a 06/07 model if not mistaken, lady owner. I'm pretty keen on this model after reading some reviews, but I'd probably need some tips or advice on what to look out for. Thanks yea smile.gif

Best is to shutdown/start engine a few times. You may notice the following:

1- Electric Power Steering not functioning (i.e. steering very heavy). I am lucky I got it replaced FOC.
2- Sometimes cannot engage Reverse (panel shows "O"). I've been getting this off and on (once a month). So far still can live with it, but it will die sooner or later....

Oh, and thanks for your help on the brake pads abcb smile.gif. I got mine replaced with Waja brake pads and brake fluid change for RM316. And yes, it hasn't been changed for 5 years (worn out)....

Actually, the Passion sold here is full spec. In UK, Pulse is full spec and Passion is base spec (even aircon is optional).
