SO i mentioned my decrease in fuel economy at my 15k service, they said they cleaned the air filter and flushed out the fuel filter, said that my fuel economy should be back to normal. Well i have just been through my first tank of fuel since the service and the fuel economy is not back to normal.
The thing that seems strange about all of this is that it has dropped by roughly 50km per tank EXACTLY. I would normally be in the ball park of 720-730km when my fuel light came on, i am now in the ball park of 670-680km when the light comes on. I do pretty consistent driving. 90% of the time. Same route to and from work 5 days a week, and most of the time it doesnt do much on the weekend, so my fuel economy results have been pretty stable since i bought it. Having such a precise increase in fuel usage is very strange.
Who flushes out a fuel filter?
I assume you're measuring economy at the pump and not relying on the trip computer alone?
hvac, shall check the papers when i get home, but i had a quick read and didnt notice an SQL listed.
CD, i thought it a very strange fix for decreased fuel economy, but i am no mechanic so i took his word for it.
correct, i have the GLX so do not have the display that tells me usage per 100ks while driving. i normally set my trip meter everytime i fill up, then when i refill i record the amount of fuel it takes to fill the tank. I then use the trip reading and the amount of fuel to calculate the per 100k reading.
they tested the parameters of ecu apprrently; nothing worng. except they found my EGR blanking plate! so apprently this was the cause. Oh and my mechanic didnt adjust the tappets at the 30k service. they pointed it out to me because it is still original gasket goo. (i dont see how the tappets need adjusting every 30k but please correct me).
Its still terrible to drive and really frustrates me! and if i had known i wouldnt have done it.
The proper service regime requires valve clearance adjustments. Some models it was every 30,000 and newer ones are now every 45,000.
Does anyone have details of the engine overheat recall.
Theres a whole thread about it.
Any info on the overheat recall?
You are taking the piss aren't you?
Look up, between this post and the one you typed this morning.

"Found Hotline Fix MN22-001 Hub Sleeve Incorrectly Manufactured"
Oh well there were only 260 odd posts to wade through. I've updated the first post now. Also searched the whole forum for the words "hotline fix" and picked up a couple more.
Does anyone have the hotline fix number for the cabin/floor/roof harness replacement for the MN airbag warning light issues?
Checked for SRS light on, found code B1441. Found poor contact which creates an increased resistance in connector terminals due to improper caulking of pin terminals.
Requires replacement of floor and roof harness as per Hotline fix MN 52-001.
Talk away, probably the most intelligent conversation you could have on here.
I'd agree with you if it weren't for the stupid stuff I hear myself saying and see myself typing - every single day.

I can imagine. There look to be quite a few for the ml that are missing too.
Hey guys, First post today. Just wondering about the MN recalls. Is it year specific on those cabin/floor/roof harness air bag warning lights? My airbag lights been on since i bought my rig and I recently had it in for the indicator recall and the mechanics stated that i needed new harnesses for the roof and sub floor. shes a 2011. It's been annoying the crap outta me so they removed the light. Help on this appreciated.
.. so your mechanic removed the light on a safety system?
NewTriton.net Stubby Coolers - Order Now!
Pretty sure 2011 is within the range of vehicles affected.
Thanks Cowboy Dave, I'll make some enquiries with Mitsubishi tomorrow.
Hey guys. Just thought id share for those experiening oxidation in there paint.
Took my WHITE MN today with an oxidating bonnetm got a call 2 hours later informing me there is now a Hotline out for this issue.
My understanding is, mitsubishi will trying it with there compound fix, and from what ive been told if it reappears they will then have a panel beater fix it.
So back story is I've decided to keep my MN for another couple of years, was seriously considering selling it and moving to something else. But given I'm in a bit of a lifestyle transition phase (and didn't really want to part with $30K right now) I've opted to breathe some new life into the old girl (MN GLX-R 2010 with 190K).
Since my fuel economy has gone to hell I've decided just to replace the manifold; $380 with gaskets and new hose (parts only) didn't seem too bad. I do have the EGR blanked but will also install a catch can, something I should have done when I first purchased the car. The paint is also terrible, delaminating on the roof and bonnet, so might get that resprayed as well and keep her for another 2 years.
I've just gone through and read (re-read more like it) the thread on hotline fixes. Looks like a lot of these might apply to me, and some actually are faults I had and took into my dealer at various times, usually with the reply 'no fault found'.
So my question; my car is clearly out of warranty, are the hotline fixes only something that is charged for, or free? Does it depend on warranty status?
One example of the knocking in the steering column; I've had this ever since I can remember, I see it is a hotline fix (now). I had it in to be looked at under warranty and was told it's probably just the steering boot sticking and to spray some silicon on it.. obviously did nothing.

What Does It Mean to Span Cultural Boundaries? Variety and Atypicality in Cultural Consumption
We propose a synthesis of two lines of sociological research on boundary spanning in cultural production and consumption. One, research on cultural omnivorousness, analyzes choice by heterogeneous audiences facing an array of crisp cultural offerings. The other, research on categories in markets, analyzes reactions by homogeneous audiences to objects that vary in the degree to which they conform to categorical codes. We develop a model of heterogeneous audiences evaluating objects that vary in typicality.
The Social Imagination of Homosexuality and the Rise of Same-sex Marriage in the United States
The author argues that the increase in support for same-sex marriage in the United States must be interpreted in light of the changing social imagination of homosexuality. The author measures the social imagination at the micro level by comparing the frequencies and semantic contexts in which two cohorts use metaphors and analogies to talk about same-sex marriage. Younger informants articulate them in ways that characterize homosexuality as identity, whereas older informants characterize homosexuality as behavior.
How Grassroots Groups Lose Political Imagination
http://ctx.sagepub.com/content/14/1/32.abstract
One Nation, United? Science, Religion, and American Public Opinion
Debates about science and religion—whether they conflict and how they factor into public opinion, policies, and politics—are of longstanding interest to social scientists. Research in this area often examines how elites use science and religion to justify competing claims. But, how do members of the public more generally incorporate science and religion into their worldviews? The assumption that science and religion inherently conflict with one another has come under increasing scrutiny and recent studies reveal that science and religion are more compatible than previously assumed.
Religion in Public Action: From Actors to Settings
Contemporary social research often has located religion's public influence by focusing on individual or collective religious actors. In this unitary actor model, religion is a stable, uniform feature of an individual or collectivity. However, recent research shows that people's religious expression outside religious congregations varies by context.
Fitting In or Standing Out? The Tradeoffs of Structural and Cultural Embeddedness
A recurring theme in sociological research is the tradeoff between fitting in and standing out. Prior work examining this tension tends to take either a structural or a cultural perspective. We fuse these two traditions to develop a theory of how structural and cultural embeddedness jointly relate to individual attainment within organizations. Given that organizational culture is hard to observe, we develop a novel approach to assessing individuals' cultural fit with their colleagues based on the language expressed in internal e-mail communications.

Photo Essay: General Gordon Memorial, Southampton
Southampton is full of history if you know where to look. Although not on my regular route I sometimes would take a shortcut through Queen's Park and this is where you will find the General Gordon Memorial.
I have to admit I did not make the connection to Gordon of Khartoum until somebody told me about it. Oddly enough I had instinctively photographed the base of the plinth "just in case".
Also known as "Chinese Gordon" for his service in the Far East and "Gordon of Khartoum", after where he was killed in 1885, Gordon lived in Southampton and served in the Crimean War, and the second Opium War, and reorganised China's 'Ever Victorious Army', leading it to a series of brilliant victories during the Taiping Rebellion. He later was Governor-General of the Sudan and evacuated some 2,600 civilians and soldiers from Khartoum before the Mahdi's revolt. He was supposedly killed in the Governor-General's palace in 1885, just two days before his 52nd birthday.
It is believed that his head was presented to the Mahdi and his body was thrown down a well.
Gordon's Tomb may be found in St Paul's Cathedral, London, although he is not buried there as no part of his body was recovered. There is also a Gordon family tomb in Southampton's Old Cemetery on the Common on which Gordon is commemorated.
A strange place to find somebody who was involved in so many events that changed nations. How many people make the connection? not too many. I know I was not one of them either.

What You Can Do With a Degree in Mechanical Engineering
Mechanical engineers are problem solvers who use technical expertise to create novel solutions that improve our lives. This broad statement, while true, is usually all that people really understand about the role of a mechanical engineer. Mechanical engineering is actually a specialization with considerably diverse career applications in a range of industries and roles.
Mechanical engineering refers generally to the design and development of machines, which can include everything from simple household products to vehicles and even medical devices. Below, we've rounded up some common mechanical engineering jobs to give you just a glimpse of what you could do with a degree in this field.
Biomedical engineering applies the principles of engineering to medicine to create the equipment, devices, systems and software used in healthcare. While you can also earn a Master of Science in Biomedical Engineering, for people with backgrounds in mechanical engineering, work in this field might include developing artificial limbs, machines that better diagnose and treat ailments, and other medical devices.
Between the aging population and the increasing level of technology in the healthcare field, biomedical engineering jobs are expected to grow by about 7 percent in the next decade, and the median annual pay in the field is about $85,000.1
The automotive industry relies on mechanical engineers to develop safer, more reliable vehicles. Automotive engineers design, build and test auto parts and entire vehicles, with an eye toward solving common problems in transportation, such as safety and fuel efficiency. For example, an automotive engineer might work on a more efficient engine to reduce gas consumption, or on structural elements that reduce the risk of injury in a crash.
The Bureau of Labor Statistics (BLS) predicts that demand for automotive engineers will increase by 9 percent by 2026, driven in large part by advances in automotive technology, including the development of AI and self-driving cars. The median annual salary in this field is about $84,000.2
Robotics have long been a key part of the engineering industry, and are only growing in importance as technology improves. Robotics engineers are the ones who design and build the machines that build other machines, as well as remotely operated machines that interact with their surroundings.
For example, robotics engineers help create the machines that conduct repetitive tasks in manufacturing plants, or that perform tasks that are too dangerous for humans. They may also apply expertise in biomechanics to the development of artificial limbs. As demand for robotic technology increases, so does demand for robotics engineers. Growth is expected to be about 5 percent in the coming years, with median annual salaries around $84,000.3
Thermal engineering focuses on the use of thermodynamic principles to create and maintain systems that convert energy into heating and cooling. These engineers not only design heating and air conditioning systems, but also use their knowledge to help design buildings in ways that efficiently manage their energy usage.
Geothermal engineering is a growing application in this area as well, as alternatives to conventional energy sources are increasingly being developed. The BLS classifies thermal engineering under mechanical engineering and predicts 9 percent job growth in the field by 2026. The annual median salary in this field is about $84,000.2
Manufacturing engineering refers to the production of goods; the development of machines, tools and equipment for manufacturing; and the refinement of processes and techniques for optimum productivity. While many manufacturing engineers work on the design and development of machines, others work in research and testing.
Manufacturing engineers are involved in the creation of almost every type of product, from airplanes and cars all the way down to toys and microchips. Growth in the manufacturing engineering sector is expected to be 10 percent between now and 2024. As with other mechanical engineering specialties, the annual median salary is about $84,000.2
Systems engineers develop process-based solutions to improve operations by bringing together multiple technical disciplines into a single coordinated effort. This includes developing systems with the input of stakeholders and an eye toward performance and cost, testing systems to ensure they work and to identify potential problems, and maintaining systems once they are launched.
Although you can also get a graduate degree in Systems and Control Engineering, a background in mechanical engineering can bring unique skills to this area. Graduates can work for companies that manufacture robotics and other machine components, but rather than design those products, a mechanical engineer working in systems would likely be on the operations side, developing and refining manufacturing processes.
The BLS predicts that systems engineering careers will grow by about 10 percent between now and 2026. This is driven in large part by companies' ongoing desire to control costs and improve efficiency. The median pay for these jobs is in the mid-$80,000 range, with the highest paid systems engineers earning well over six figures annually.4
These are only a few of the diverse career options available to mechanical engineers. If you are looking to expand your career prospects, a Master of Science in Mechanical Engineering from Case Western Reserve can put you on the right track.
