Montero sport stalls at stops after battery change.

I recently changed my battery (October). The engine stalled at stops every time. We increased the idle. It was fine. Took it in for inspection a(December) and the computer says "waiting for response". The guy told us we needed to reset the computer ($100). We took the negative cable off over night and restarted the truck in the am. It was fine. We took the idel back to where it was supposed to be and drove it to work. It stalled at each and every stop. HELP!!!!! Any help is much appreciated!

Montero Sport, Automatic transmission fluid change

Hello! I have Mitsubishi Montero Sport, 1999. I need to change automatic transmission fluid, and mixed up - one tells me to put Mobil ATF-220, another advises to put Mitsubishi ATF SP 3, the third offered Castrol (do not remember the product code). Your advice on this is highly appreciated.
Regards,

Ok, Mobil atf is more of a universal fluid, where Mitsubishi atf would be specifically formulated to be used in their products. Personally I would use the Mitsubishi as it is brand specific, but you can use either one with more than likely no problems.

how to remove front brake rotor on 1999 mitsubishi montero sport?

I have the wheel, caliper, caliper bracket, and brake pads off. Now for the rotor. Are any special tools required? Do I have to remove both sets of bolts, or can I leave the inner hub in place? Do I have to remove the bearings, etc.?

My Mitsubishi Montero, 2003 horn

My Mitsubishi Montero, 2003 horn is going off in the middle of the night. I beat on the horn pad serveral times until it stops, then in a couple of hours it goes off again and the police show up. Is it the pad located in the air bag that needs to be replaced? Mike

Is the alarm causing the horn to honk? If so, you need to figure out what is causing the alarm to trigger, which could be any number of things.
Or, the panic module could be failing.
It is least likely to be the horn ring unless the only way you can get the horn to stop is by "beating the horn button on the steering wheel".

If it is, then you can replace the parts for the horn button, but you will need to get an assembly manual for the vehicle. Be sure to disconnect the battery before attempting to remove the airbag module. If it goes off, then you risk injury, and, they are not cheap to replace.
