Delica Canada | Mitsubishi Van Club

Has anyone had any dealings with a mechanic in squamish or whistler with decent Delica knowledge? I have been spoiled by great service from CVI for the past few years but the recent move to Brackendale means they are a long way to go for work on my L400.

Housing and impeller were not clean. They are coated with a film of oil, as are the inside of the pipes going to and from the intercooler. The rattle is only on take off in first gear, with load on engine and only lower rpms. Acompanied w a uncharacteristic heavy belch of black smoke. Thanks for the...

Definitely the turbo! Pulled all air hoses to and from turbo and had a look/wiggle at the shaft that the compressor fins ride on. Slight play in the shaft, no visable wear on the housing. Can I limp home trying to minimize boost w higher Rpms or am I asking for trouble? I am in Newfoundland w my new...

I am fairly certain the turbo is the culprit. I pulled the hose that comes off the top of the turbo and goes to the intercooler and it was slimy with oil inside. The rattle sound seems to be loudest near the air intake. What model turbo is in the L400? I am looking for a diesel shop in halifax to do...

My L400 has developed a rattle noise coming from the turbo under load, is burning oil, producing black smoke under load and has what looks like oil leaking around the pipes that connect turbo to intercooler, manifold, etc. Am I doing more damage driving it? I am assuming it is the seals in the turbo...

Parts on the way from Rocky mountain imports!
Friendly, helpful, very quick with contact and shipping!

My cousin decided to park my L400 on a stump and F'd up my front end. I'm on a road trip in nova scotia and need to source tie rod , control arm bushings and other steering/suspension parts.
where do i start? do some of these parts share with the montero? help much appreciated!

Not sure of gearing on the 5-speed L400, but I can give a big thumbs up to their highway capability.

My 94 L400 5-speed has lots of highway miles, both flat and mountainous. No problem at 110kph with power to spare and comfortable cruising at 120kph.

Thanks for all the tips guys
Just an update on my white smoke;
Toasted Glowplug!
only starting on 3 cyl hence unburnt fuel out the pipe (ie:white smoke)

My L400 is puking a lot of white smoke when cold. It does the standard diesel small puff of black immediately on firing up, then roughly chugs out white smoke unless I rev up to 1500 rpm, at which time no smoke. If I don't rev for at least a minute it will continue to puff small bits of white smoke....
