Suspension Noise

Does your Mitsubishi L300 make a strange noise? Need wheel alignment specs?

Suspension Noise

Post by Exceed93 »

Hi All.

I'm hoping someone can help me diagnose a noise in the front left wheel area of my Delica. It only happens when I'm turning left and that corner of the van is weighted. Sounds like a suspension thing...

Thanks in advance.

Hey there - your subframe bolts may need to be pulled, greased, and re-installed.

I would say just check all the subframe bolts and make sure they are tight !! this will solve the problem 99% of the time ! I have not heard of pulling and lubing them before........not that you should not do this....just news to me !

Thanks Guys. Much appreciated.

For a newbie, can anyone offer directions to the location of these bolts?

Check out "Delica Wiki" in the forum under "Delica Canada Technical" while you are at it. Much useful information including service manuals.
