QUOTE(cwtien @ Sep 24 2011, 06:16 PM) Great post describing same parts  . 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  . 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.

QUOTE(raptorclans @ Sep 27 2011, 08:11 AM) any hints on detecting them?  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  . 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).... This post has been edited by cwtien: Sep 27 2011, 11:58 AM

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