Why does my Mitsubishi Colt make a clunking sound?
You can hear a clunking sound when you drive in reverse and occasional grumbling noises when driving forward. Before you do anything else, check your fluid levels, which may be too low. If they are fine, then you have a worn-out torque convertor.
Why does my Mitsubishi Colt take so long to stop?
This is particularly noticeable when the car is stationary and/or at around 1000-3000rpm. Firstly try to refit the current heat shield, but if it is damaged you will need to fit a replacement one to sort this problem. The brake pedal needs excessive force for the brakes to engage, and the car takes too long to stop.
Why do I Smell fuel in my Mitsubishi Colt?
You can see and/or smell fuel. Air has probably become trapped inside the fuel pump mounting cap mouldings, and the cap has cracked as a result. You can order a replacement cap from us and easily install it. If the front seat height adjusters have failed on your car, you will have noticed that the seats have dropped.

Why does my rear wheel drive car Rattle?
Mounting points on the frame can rust away, but this causes steering symptoms far more noticeable and worrisome than a mere noise. Older rear-wheel-drive vehicles with a live rear axle and coil springs may have what’s called a panhard rod that runs diagonally from the chassis to one side of the axle housing.
