I have a problem with my Mitsubishi Triton GLS 4x4 double cab 2001 and I'm grateful for any advise I can get.
Sometimes when I start up, the wheel lock engages and it takes a while to get it off again. Lately it's been doing it while I've been driving which is a bit of a worry. When it happens I first hear a brushing noise like the wheel lock is trying to engage. Then when I slow down it jumps in and doesn't disengage. It usually goes off sometime later.
I've been to Mitsubishi and they said that they have never had this problem before. Their diagnosis is to replace everything to do with the wheel lock and told me that it's a shame that it's out of warranty because it will cost heaps. I then went to my local mechanic and left it with them for a couple of days.They spent heaps of time on it and still couldn't pinpoint the cause. Didn't charge me anything either because they couldn't fix the problem. All I can seem to do is wait until it engages permanently and then hope someone can find the problem.
If anyone has any similar problems or know what I can do, please respond. Cheers
