Mitsubishi Expo

A tall compact people-carrier sold under a confusing number of names — Chariot and RVR in Japan, Space Wagon and Space Runner in Europe, Expo and Expo LRV in America, and as the Eagle Summit Wagon and Plymouth Colt Vista beside them. The short-wheelbase LRV and the long Expo are two different bodies under one American name. Mechanically they are Galant and Eclipse parts: the 4G63 and 4G64 fours, the same transaxles, and an available viscous-coupling all-wheel drive whose transfer unit is the one component with no equivalent in the saloons.

Information, not instruction

CarGeek is a reference, not a service manual. Its pages are written from public sources and from what other people have found, never from a manufacturer's own service information, so they can be wrong or incomplete for your particular vehicle. Some of what they describe carries real risk: high voltage, fuel under pressure, stored energy, hot and moving parts.

Have anything you intend to act on checked by a trained person against the manufacturer's own procedure for your vehicle. Nothing here replaces that procedure.

What makes one worth reading:

  • The car — make, model, year and engine. The same fault behaves differently on each.
  • What you measured, not only what you replaced.
  • What actually fixed it — or that nothing did, which is worth knowing too.
