  1. Problem Reports
    Hey everyone, So I've noticed my gas mileage is extremely poor lately. Well I guess I didn't realize it was poor until I started calculating my Odometer between fill ups. I have a 08 and get roughly 15 MPG. Usually between 240-260 Mike's before hitting empty. Car isn't showing codes for fuel...
  2. 2006-2012 Eclipse (General 4G)
    Hello All, I know I am going to get lots of negative comments for this post, but here it is anyways. I purchased a 2006 eclipse GT for my son prior to the insane gas prices. My question is how long can the car run on regular gas before the engine is damaged? Will the ECU compensate indefinitely...
  3. 4G Eclipse GT/SE Specific
    So I was driving today on the freeway and I was in second gear to overtake a big semi, but I didn’t realize I had to shift! (stupid me) so the the tach bounced off the limiter and I just hear my exhaust go “pop pop pop” and the car shut off. I coasted into a gas station, tried to start it up...

    Hey y'all its about time to change my clutch on my 2009 GS manual. Im starting to get a little slip on it; my RPM gets high but still settles back in properly when i ease the gas. I am thinking about doing it myself once i have a free weekend. I paid about $1000 three years ago for the current...

    [ 2007 GS 5spd Manual ] Hey all. A few weeks ago I was driving slowly in 1st gear (clutch fully engaged) and I gave it a good punch of gas and let down smoothly. Ever since then, there has been a noise I can't figure out. - Sounds like a belt turning/humming. - Starts very low and rises in...

    I have a 2009 with the 2.4L that after pulling into the driveway the other night the check engine light came on and it started idling rough as hell. I shut it off and restarted it. It started back up but ran rough as hell, tach was at around 1000rpms but it felt like 150-200, it would finally...

    In order to rebuild an old, rusty motor, you need to go through every single component. As a matter of fact, you'd be better off replacing factory parts with aftermarket goodies. On a Hummer H3, replacing the stock cast iron exhaust manifold is a necessity, due to it being prone to cracking...

    Perfect for a turbo build, the kits are available once again. This new kit is very similar to my old kit, however it reflects the price changes in the last 4 months, and now includes ARP head and main studs. These are all parts I have personally tested and abused. I have my motor happily revving...
  9. 4G Eclipse GT/SE Specific
    Hey fellas, just got my car back after having some work done do it. (Injen CAI, RRE Headers, Energy motor mounts, ebiach pro kit lowering springs and magnaflow catback exhaust) The shop told me they had to delete the pipe connecting the RRE manifold to the EGR as it would not line up. My EGR...

    I have a set of 87mm 4G69 pistons, never been used. They're ~U$650 retail, I'll sell them U$575 shipped in continental states or Canada provinces. These are the extreme duty ones, not the standard forged pistons I didn't use them because I wanted to get perfect piston to wall clearance for my...
  13. 2006-2012 Eclipse (General 4G)
    Hey everyone, Was driving to Mickey Shorr and my service engine soon light came on half way there. Took it to AutoZone for a free code read right after and looks like I forgot my gas cap at a fuel pump :/ No problem though, since I went online and bought a Duralast gas cap that said it fits a...
  14. 2006-2012 Eclipse (General 4G)
    Welp, after 220k miles with just routine oil changes and maintenance it decided it had enough. A few months after I gave it a fresh tune up too. Driving to work on Friday, It all of a sudden started mis-firing and knocking bad. I immediately pulled into a parking lot and as soon as my foot...

    Hi all, First off thank you to all the moderators, creators, and fellow DIY'ers that have contributed to this site as it has served to be an invaluable resource to me this past 5-6 months of diagnosing the notorious "p0421 and p0431" engine trouble codes. This car was given to me as a gift...
  16. 4G Eclipse GS/SE Specific
    Hey guys, I've recently been having a problem with getting my 2011 Eclipse GS automatic to start. I was wondering if anyone has had the same problem or has any idea what the problem could be before I take it in to a mechanic. When I start, the engine turns over and starts, but has a very rough...

    Okay bear with me, and lets just avoid the internal "hey. hey thats not safe, you're gonna have a hard time. I poop with lofi cafe music playing, ughhh" and think about the joy and process instead. The 4G by no means is a light sporting coupe, and the market for my 4g69 is smaller than most of...
