What Should I Know About This Car? - Club4G Forum : Mitsubishi Eclipse 4G Forums - 2006-2012 Eclipse Authority

RelaxRelapse · October 9th, 2011, 11:43 PM

I purchased a 2006 GS a few days ago and was wondering if there is anything you feel I should know about this car (from personal experience or just something you heard). This is my first car and I want to make sure I don't run into any surprises.

If you're interested in any info on my car let me know.

Thanks for any replies!

Are you asking about modding or just general info?

I have an 06 no problems just take care of it and follow routine maintenance

According to the manual, switching on the AC for 5 minutes a week is part of "routine maintenance". WTTC!

I'm interested in both, but can't really afford to mod quite yet. Any info you can give me though I'd like to hear.

Once you start to mod or even before, check out the 'beginners guide to modding' thread. I believe its stickied so it should be easy to find. It has so much info about our cars and specific mods for it. Another thing that I've picked up on quickly is search for previous threads when asking questions because most have already been answered. And WWTC man!

Thanks I'll definitely check out that thread whenever I get the chance. I think I'm gonna look through this section tonight and do some research.
