Hi All:
I have a 97 Galant 2.0. which has only 37,600 miles on the clock. Last week I had the Misubishi dealers replace the crankshaft pulley because the old one had started to rub the lower cam belt cover. The problem has been mentioned in this news group about these bonded pulleys. In addition to the crankshaft pulley I replaced the cover and all four belts. Mitsubishi charged 500 pounds (800 dollars).
When I got the car back it seemed very harsh and when revved above
3500 rpm you can feel it through the steering wheel and clutch pedal. I have complained about this but the dealers think I am imagining things. What I didn't imagine was the Engine going into limp mode 0.5 miles from the garage. They failed to find any problem, though I had fail twice more on the way home. It has not failed for 4 days since.I am pis**d off, the car was really smooth before my local main dealer got his hands on it. Please can anyone suggest what might be the cause of this engine harshness.
Regards
John
