Mitsubishi Delica Owners Club UK™

[Beastlee]

I thought I'd try out the Delica's chassis number on the online database I got form the VR4 club and it works.  Use Internet Explorer to go to : http://recall.mitsubishi-motors.co.jp/Recall/resultrecallstatus.do  

It's all in Japanese so just enter your chassis number at the bottom and press the button.  Once you get the results paste the content into Google Translate engine to find out what needs doing.  For example ours came back with :

[Slung (PE8W-0003376) results
Your car and the vehicle has been determined that the following items.

Notification content type, number
(Start date) Implementation
1 Delica, Pajero, Challenger diesel engine (fuel pump) work not done the recall on 2004/07/22
2 front brake service for delicatessen
2000/12/19 campaign work not done


"Work not done" with regard to the items you have, we are truly sorry for the inconvenience, the company purchased, please request a free repair or your local dealer.

'Work not done'  indicates the recall is incomplete which I'm actually quite happy about as I think the fuel pump may need it's timing doing.  As for the brakes, they seem okay and I'm not sure about the translation.

If you head into your local dealer they should be able to book you in for the work for free.  It normally takes a couple of weeks to get the parts in but hey, you get stuff done for free!

Has anybody tried this yet?
sounds to good to be true

[Beastlee]

All of the VR4 owners use it to check on their recall status.  So far it has proven correct every time.

hi i worked for mitsi up till last year this means that your pump recall has been carried out and also the brake recall has been carried out , they use the same form for all recall replies and only change vehicle details
also i believe from memory that the cold start was causing the engine to race which was what the recall was for
cheers   spanners

[Jaffa]

Here is mine.
Don't know if i'm getting this thread tbh, but does this mean that there has been a recall for the pump seals, and the work has not been done, and they will do if free of charge.  Or am I just wishing this is the case.  My seals havegone and am about to book her in for the work.

The fuel pump recall is definitely to do with the cold start lever, the japanese text in the results box is a hyperlink and takes you to another page with this text:

Incompatible with the state standards
Allow structure, equipment or
Because not enough time for the impact strength of the control lever of the spark advance spark advance during cold-start condition and the cause of the performance of maintenance work at the injection pump fuel injection timing adjustments, and to have an impact on the lever by mistake, crack may occur. Therefore, to continue to use as it is in the worst case, the lever折損such, it may increase the engine speed to increase the amount of fuel.

All contents of the vehicle measures the exchange of goods with measures such lever.

The recall as far as i can make it out on the L300 / P35W and P25W are that the ball joint dust covers are faulty and leak. Recall is to inspect, replace cover/sleeve and also replace Ball joints if these have deteriorted due to these faulty covers. I am waiting on a call back from Mitsi UK.
