common problems...
Well, first off, not all cars will have the same problems... BUT for the GSX model, there have been a few complaints generally about the same thing... They are as follows...
1- Transfer case... Supposedly fixed for the '98-'99 model...
2- Engine "ticking"... Very common thing in mitsu engines, only should be concerned when progressively louder and doesn't dissappear after engine is war,...
That's about all i've heard that are common... I'm sure there are a couple of others, but none come to mind right now...
I have a '99 GSX myself, and i haven't had any problems really... I do have some engine "ticking", but once the engine is warmed up, it goes away... The dealership replaced the valve lifter and the "ticking" hasn't been heard of since... The vacuum hose has been replaced, and i had a minor leak in my AC hose... That's been the extent of my problems with my car...
Just keep in mind that proper caring for a turbocharged engine is a pain in the ass... Proper warm up and cool down periods are a must... Synthetic oils, highest octane gas, etc etc... =) Basically what i'm saying is you can avoid MOST problems by taking care of her... =)
