If the windows are open 1 inch, they will rattle when the vehicle goes over bumps on slightly bumpy roads. Technicians showed me all they could do was tighten all the bolts. They said the windows for the Lancers also do the same thing. The windows still rattle when they are open 1 inch and I can't believe there is no fix for this.

Vehicle was parked overnight in an attached garage to my house. Inside the garage was -10 degrees celcius. Went to start the vehicle the next morning and the engine would stall 1-2 seconds after start up. The vehicle battery is only two months old and all connections are secure. All fuses and relays are in working order. The MIL light was not on so there were no codes to pull. I try 5 more times to start the vehicle and again, it would stall and would not remain on. I tried plugging in the block heater for 2 hours. Went to start the vehicle and finally, the engine remained running. Car behaved normally after that and I could not duplicate the problem the next day.

the lower half of the heat shield on the exhaust has come loose. It is supposed to be clamped onto the upper heat shield but rust has corroded the part that is connected to the clamp.

I clamped the lower heat shield onto the upper heat shield using a metal gear clamp and that stopped the rattling.

Alternator replaced twice. thought it was a faulty rebuild. through diagnosis i have discovered that when its not charging if i shut off the car and pull the 7.5 amp control unit relay fuse(inside vehicle fuse box), start the car with fuse pulled the alternator starts to work. shut off the car, re-insert the fuse and start the car again and all is good till the next time. I don't use this car much so it could be a few weeks or days, who knows. Why its doing this is still a question.
