New here so be gentle.... what’s the highest Km that you have seen engine being replaced??
My 2010 challenger with 4D56 engine has 230,000 on the clock. Went into limp mode on me and when mechanic took it apart was found to have warped head etc. it had run a bit hit at times and I had noticed excess coolant i. The overflow bottle but never had to stop for overheating
My mechanic said it is eactly the same as every other 4D56 engine that had the cooling system problem that he has seen or that he ha seen pictures/reports on from the mechanic forums. Sent to Mitsubishi dealer for diagnostic assessment so could approach MMA. The dealer ended up talking to MMA in my behalf, and cam back with rejected due to “too many kms and no Hx of overheating.
So my question is what’s the highest Kms you guys have seen replaced?
I’m going to approach them in person as I would really like to know what arbitrary mileage they feel they can relinquish responsibility for a improperly manufactured engine, and to let them know it did run hot just not overheated.
Any other hints and contacts of similar people would be great.
