    im jumping up and down like i little school girl. i just went to my mitsu dealer to pick up the eclipes and i talked to my friend dustin about my car. They are fully covering it. THe CVT belt broke, he said that the reason the inspectors came here is becuase they are worried about the 2.4 liter motor thats going in the newer lancer. I got to meet the people from japan, and guess what, i dont speak good japanize lol. But im really happy right now. Doug said that my car will be done by tommrow night friday morning at the very latest. YAY!!!!!!

    Very nice to hear :) Was there any possible reason as to why the belt broke or is it a mystery to them?

    forgot to say, they checked my tires and everything to see if they were worn in a pattern of street racing, so they could blame it on that. they made a very funny comment about evo owners lol

    glad to hear everything will be ok. But its going to be hell for mitsu if that makes the news.... new lancer CVT breaking a belt = no more CVT sales. Hope it was a fluke.....

    in his case..i think the engineers from japan had to come.. b/c it was something they never delt with before.. and they need to be prepared if this is an ongoing thing not just a fluke... well thats funny they checked ur tires to see if you were street racing.. what does neutral to drive do??? what the japanese peopl where talking about??

    so i just went to the dealership to see how it was going with my car. and guess what. Someone passed me driving my car. balls out. i was not happy to see my car being cranked around a s turn without me driving it. So i talked to doug and asked him why someone was driving my car and he said that they were testing it out to make sure everything was ok. so now they want to hold it till tommorow to make sure the computer picks up everything
