Forum: Third Generation Magna TE - TW

I'm curious is there any major issues or problems with those models..i just spent all day looking at magna prices in SA & VIC and there are many for $1000 or less.. To me that seems under valued. I looked at each advert and they seem to be in decent shape so that's why i ask was there some issues...

Have 2001 KJ verada & recently the demist function doesn’t work on the windscreen. Only blows air on face level no matter what you select. Pain in the bum with all the cold mornings. Any clues??

Hi, My wagon has done around 250000. Sometimes it bottoms out with a loud bang when entering driveways etc. The bump stops are completely disintergrated so could this be a possible cause? Anyway I thinking of replacing the bump stops, strut mount berarings and fitting Sachs shockers. I...

This is a strange one to me. I've checked all the door switches by manually pushing them in and the corresponding door light goes off, so they are functioning fine. However the door open symbol on the dash remains on. And I have interior LED floor lights hooked up to the same circuit so the whole...

Before I start this can anyone tell me if you can remove the coil without removing the distributor?? Thanks Gary

Hi, Do 380 lifters fit the 6G74? And if so are they any better of a design or still the same part number?

Hi guys, I've had a persistent brake squeak noise at parking lot speeds. Its intermittent, in the sense that it only squeaks on one part of the rotation of the wheel. I can make the noise go away by playing with the handbrake. I thought perhaps something was wrong with the rotor (warped...

I've seen a car with an unusual; colour that changes with the light.. it's a kind of gunmetal base colour with a oily / rainbow effect in it can yo hlp? Thanks all

Hi Magna folk, I have a Magna TE with a broken clip that holds the wiper arm linkages. I have tried ebay, and my local wreckers, but no luck. Does anyone one know where I can get these from? Thanks, Paul

and sometimes on turning off the engine; I'm thinking engine mounts. The RHS was replaced about 3 yrs ago. How do I check the LHS mount? This is a TW FWD with 175k on the clock. thanks

The coil in the TE is failing again, and while talking to dad, he said that his triton was starting to exhibit similar symptoms. I told him it was the coil, and the best move is to replace the whole dizzy. Realizing that it would be on the back of the head against the firewall, I thought we should...

Title pretty much says it all Seen a few posts about the 3.8(75) intake being "modded" for the 3.5 (74) but can not for the life of me find an instructional write up. Basically I wanna know What requires modifying to make it fit 74? Do I need new throttle cable? Are the mating surfaces the...

Car hit a bolt sticking out of a bridge and ripped a hole in the sump. The car is a 2002 KJ2 GTVi. Is there any difference in the sump with the GTVi engines or just simply take one from a wrecked magna and change it over?

Does anyone have an idea what size and thread type these are. I will be replacing coolant soon and would like to replace these with new ones. My dealer doesn't have them, and they need to come from Japan so, I was hoping to get some from a hydraulic supplier. Many thanks...

What would the best ATF for be for a 4spd TF magna be? Local Mitsubishi Dealer recommended Caltex Texamatic 1888 fluid? Anybody used this fluid before?

I'm not sure if this is normal, a simple not serious issue or an indicator of something bad goin on. I noticed after I park warmed up TJ magna, (i assume it happens while driving too) there's a slow (once every 2-3s) dripping of something from somewhere under the hood which hits the metal. All...

Hi all, I had to replace my battery in my TJ sports manual, after I did the car started but now idles a little rough and takes longer to crank, Along with this I have a blank stereo no central locking, Centre trip computer(so cannot set the ecu '5' '3.5' ect) Any ideas appreciate it.

Ok, so I bought my first car about 2 weeks ago and sometimes when I'm driving and I go to accelerate it feels like brrrr-rrrr-rr like it's not getting petrol or air, the rev tacho goes up/down 2-3mm when it's happening. The car has been very well looked after, full service history and 1 owner...
