Common Problems
Mitsubishi Space Engine Problems - What It Costs to Fix & When Replacement Makes Sense
The Mitsubishi Space range spans two distinct vehicles with different reliability profiles. The Space Wagon's 4G64 petrol and 4M40 diesel engines dominate replacement enquiries due to head gasket and turbo failures, while the Space Star's 3A92 timing chain issues drive urgent searches on later models. Every rebuilt engine supplied through EngineMarket...
3A92 Timing Chain Stretch - Why Space Star 1.2 Engines Fail Prematurely
3A92 Timing Chain Stretch
Most affected vehicles
Mitsubishi Space Star 1.2 (2012-20243A92 engine code)
Mitsubishi Space Star 1.2 (2012-2024, 3A92 engine code)
Failure mileage range
60,000-80,000 miles
Typical failure window
Root cause
Timing chain tensioner wear allows chain to stretch, causing rattling noise and potential valve timing loss.
Repair options & estimated costs (UK ranges)
| Repair tier | Dealer price | Specialist price | What it involves | Longevity / suitability |
|---|---|---|---|---|
| Minor - Preventative Chain Replacement | £800 - £1,400 | £550 - £950 | Replace timing chain, tensioner and guides before failure occurs | Viable if caught early; prevents catastrophic damage |
| Full Replacement - Rebuilt Engine | £2,200 - £3,000 | £650 - £1,400 | Supply & fit rebuilt 3A92 unit with upgraded tensioner, bench tested, 12-month warranty | Best value when chain has already damaged valves or pistons |
Our recommendation
On a Space Star worth £1,500-£3,500, a preventative chain replacement at 50k miles is cost-effective. If rattling is already present, replacement with a rebuilt unit is usually the smarter financial decision.
