1 Engine Clicking And Tapping Noises problem of the 2001 Mitsubishi Montero Sport

Failure Date: 10/21/2003

I purchased a 2001 Mitsubishi Montero Sport from jack taylor alexandria Toyota. On September 09, 2002, I experienced trouble with my vehicle on the way back from our south carolina vacation. While driving the vehicle it started hesitating, smoking heavily and the a/t temp light came on and stayed on. Unfortunately, the stations service area was closed, but we were able to purchase transmission we added the transmission fluid as recommended and let the car cool down. Finally, after about an hour the vehicle started up, the a/t temp light went out and the car was no longer smoking. I called the representative back and advised him that the truck seemed to be fine, therefore we were going to try and make it home. He suggested that I schedule an appointment to have the vehicle checked. I contacted the darcars dealership the next day and spoke to a mr. Willard who scheduled an appointment for my car. After the technician checked the vehicle, the only problem they could find was that the car was 2 quarts overfilled with transmission fluid and no other problems. Mileage was 35346. On October 21, 2003, I had an oil change performed on my vehicle at jiffy lube while driving home the truck started to hesitate, making a loud knocking and ticking sound, the oil light came on and the vehicle started loosing acceleration pressure. I called the manager mike at jiffy lube who serviced my vehicle and performed the service, I told him exactly what the truck was doing and he stated that he could not tell me why it was doing this but that the truck should have plenty of oil in it. Mileage was 56292.
