Introducing myself
Hello all Mitsubishi drivers/owners out there. I joined today. I am Bill and live in Sasebo, Japan. My first Mitsubishi purchase was a new Sport Pajero in 2000. Loved that vehicle. I am a retired sailor and have since retired from the work force completely. I now drive a Delica 2...yes big downgrade from my Pajero. Very good on gas as it has the Hybrid engine with all of the e-assist bells and whistles. Made for us older guys I guess. I have already posted in the section for members not living in the USA. So I only dropped in here to say hello and introduce myself. Happy driving and Have a great Navy/Marine Corps Day!

Hi there my name is Jessica and I have a 2002 Montero Sport. She has 124k miles on her. I found myself here because the Monty is having some issues and I’m looking for advise and help on what it could be.
I just had the alternator replaced and the same day I picked it up from the shop it had a low idle, sputters at low idle when at a light or stop sign. It acts like it’s not getting fuel like it wants to die but doesn’t. Sputters on acceleration bit levels out once I get going. Mechanic said he found no issues but it’s been 3 weeks and still doing it. I’ve cleaned the throttle body, used SeaFoam, adjusted the throttle cable, and I’m not sure what to check next. I don’t understand because it never did it prior to replacing the alternator that day. Thank you in advance for any pointers.

Hi to Jessica
I would like to know if you serviced the fuel filter
That would be a good thing to start if it has been servived.
Any service engine soon code during your hesitation?
I would start here and review your service history
Also did they clean up the iac and map sensors in the throttle body . If they read wrong they could confuse the computer to not set the proper air and fuel to drive while cold start or warm up.
