Did some reading. and it appears that the bumper needs to be removed to remove the headlight to access the bulb properly.

Thanks again fellas but just to let yall know I went to car boutique in St james and the guy just push his hand inside literally took 1 min and pop it's out got it replaced there one time. He did in fact confirm it is very difficult but I guess if you know the make up your can see with your fingers, anyways just to let yall know it is possible to change without removal of anything major and only just the back cap.
Thanks again.

For a few of months now I noticed a lot of corrosion building up on the positive battery terminal and clamp of my cy resulting in the car not cranking at times. Once terminal is cleaned no problems.

It happened every 3 weeks then every week I had to clean the terminal. Eventually I noticed the clamp fitting very loose which lead me to believe ( or so I taught ) the battery terminal is wearing thin due to constant cleaning.

I bought a pair of those rings you put on the terminals for corrosion and an adaptor to take up the looseness on the pole but this just slowed it down not stop it.

I then started every week to wash out the corrosion with baking soda, this did a good job as compared to removing the clamp from the terminal and cleaning with wire brush.

Last week I had the same problem , car not cranking, washed out terminal and pole with baking soda to remove corrosion. This however did not work for when I removed the clamp the copper material was almost eaten away by corrosion : it was paper thin.

Removing what left of the copper clamp is now problem since the bolt connecting it to the fuse-able link block will not budge. The block is made of plastic which is now distorting or risk braking if any force is applied to remove the bolt to change the clamp.

My car is now down for a stupid copper clamp.

Apply some petroleum jelly on the poles. This almost eliminate this buildup.

Guys, I noticed that the weather stripping below the windows on the outside of my lancer is starting to disintegrate. Anyone here has experience replacing this as well as the cost associated?

Djktt · Postby **Djktt** » January 25th, 2017, 7:05 am

Hey guys..looking for an injector or set of injectors for the lancer (2008, 2.0 Mivec) any idea where ill be able to get that??Thanks!

Albezel21 · Postby **Albezel21** » January 25th, 2017, 8:08 am

Mine is disintegrating for a while to now (pitting) but hasn't really escalated past that. but i think that only happens on the base models and the gls. I believe the GT weather strip is chrome.

I have a 4 speed auto though. I changed my oem fluid at 40,000km and replaced it with amsoil. Will check the Cvt change interval and get back to u

Folks I just want to confirm the petrol used in the following:
4A91 - premium
4A92 - premium

Let me know if the above is correct and if anyone putting super in their 4A9X engine and experiencing 0 issues.

Thanks
