This brand has passed a hard way of recognition on the Russian market. The formation was fast and winding. At the end of the 90's this brand has taken one of the places in the lineup of premium brands, later it was recognized by the public and took the lead in sales in the mass segment.
But at the beginning of 2010, it sharply gave up its position and placed itself in a niche of the car market. Now the given brand is not so popular, but all the same it uses trust of buyers and is in demand in the market. Like any car, Mitsubishi needs periodic replacement of parts or their complex.
How to choose parts for Mitsubishi
Modern cars of Japanese producers are practical because various components can be replaced on their own, without going to service centers, which cannot fail to please, because it saves money significantly. Not every part is suitable for your car, it must fully comply with the brand of the car. To select the right part you can:
- use the assigned Mitsubishi part number;
- pick it up by the VIN number of the car.
How to choose parts according to car brand and model
A specialist from the service center can choose the necessary parts - all the necessary parts will be ordered and brought. Or you can order the goods yourself, using the VIN code, and later replace them. It is important to choose the right part for your car, because each make and model may have different parts.
How to find out the part number (code) of a Mitsubishi part
Each spare part is assigned a unique code, which is registered by the manufacturer. This information can be viewed on the part - it is stamped on the body or cast together with it.
If the part is already installed and the number is not visible, there is an option to remove it and check the code. If this is not possible, it is better to use other ways to find it. But even if you were able to find out the code, it may not be useful to you, as the manufacturer sometimes changes this unique number. In this case, you need to try another method.
What you can find out with the help of the VIN-code
Each vehicle is assigned a unique code, but right-hand drive Japanese cars don't have it, but there is a body number, according to which you can find out the necessary models of components, find out the type of engine and gearbox, and even find out the date of manufacture of the car.
You can look up the VIN in the following places in the car:
- in the vehicle registration certificate;
- In the vehicle registration certificate; - In the passport for the car;
- On the car's sales contract;
- on the body of the vehicle;
- Behind the windshield.
Deciphering this code yourself will be difficult or almost impossible, as there is no standard scheme for deciphering it. Each manufacturer has its own encryption algorithms. If you have not only the VIN number, but also other information about the car, the search for a part will be easier.
Which parts are better analog or original?
Original accessories are parts made to order by a brand, which may be manufactured by intermediary manufacturers:
1. The choice of auto parts is very extensive and allows you to pick up any part, from them you can reassemble a complete car.
2. they are timely subjected to strict quality control and inspection, this gives a 100% guarantee that the part is perfect for the car.
3. This type of components is the most expensive on the car market - these parts are not avoided by crooks - they are often counterfeited.
In addition to automakers producing original parts, there are producers who produce the same parts, only under their brand. The disadvantage of these parts is that they are not ideal for cars. The difference may not be significant, but sometimes it is necessary to bother with installation.
Buyers of analog components are constantly changing a part that does not fit, or modify it: by filing, soldering. The price of such parts is very nice, many times cheaper than the original, but the quality still depends on a lot.
How to distinguish the original Mitsubishi parts from the analog ones
You can distinguish a fake from an original part by the label on the package:
- The part label has a red brand emblem on it;
- The border of the inscription in original parts consists not of a solid red line, but of a faintly visible word "security" of the same red color. It will not look like a solid line, but a line with small white gaps;
- You can also pay attention to the word "Motors", in this word the first letter "O" is not written with a smooth line, but in the form of a gear.
What is an OEM number
OEM number can be deciphered as the original catalog number of the product. For easy search of the necessary part in the big catalog of imported car parts, manufacturers assign them a unique cross-code that identifies them.
