What does DTC code P0431 on Mitsubishi montero mean and is this an emergency?
Trouble code P0431 means: Warmup Catalyst Efficiency Low (Bank 2)
This means that your driver side catalytic converter is not running is it's most efficient state. You will probably need to replace the Y pipe that runs from each side of the motor into the single pipe. It has two catalytic converters on it so even if it were bank 1 you would still be replacing them both anyway. Don't confuse the Y pipe for the OTHER catalytic (single) converter that is located downstream on the single pipe. The Y pipes run $250-$450 for the part on the internet and if you don't know how to change it you will need to pay a muffler shop to put it on for you. Alternately it may be caused by bad gas, a faulty O2 sensor, or various other things but the fact that the sensor is reporting the error usually means the cats are going out and the sensor is fine. It happens around 100k+ with the Monteros. You can try pulling the battery to reset the code and try using premium gas from now on and see if it returns but it probably will. Hope that helps.
Here is an example of what it looks like:

What is the function of overdrive in automatic transmission car?
An overdrive transmission allows for less engine speed and thus greater engine economy. When in overdrive the transmission has a gear drive of less than then the engines speed. In the General Motors 4L60E Hydramatic transmission for example, in overdrive gear (4th) the transmission has a ratio of . 70. This means for each 1 rotation of the crankshaft, the output shaft of the transmission rotates . 7.

How do you change an alternator in 2002 Mitsubishi Montero Sport?
I don't specifically know about the 2002 but i Just did it for a 2001
Remove that black rubber around the radiator by pulling it up that rubber piece comes in two different pieces after you take out the 4 bolts that's holding it together with the radiator. You might have to go under the truck and remove the mud guard to take one of the rubber piece that I was telling you about which is connected with the radiator once you take that piece out now you could pull that rubber piece up now. Don't forget to disconnect the battery before you proceed to the next step. You will need 14mm, 10mm, 12mm sockets etc...
The special bolt to release the tension or the tensioner is located directly on the bottom of one of those pulley loose it up to release the pressure on the belt, require a 14 mm socket , ratchet and an extension to make it easier. Putting it back require the same step but in reverse. Don't forget to draw the diagram of the belt.
if you can't take out that rubber piece take the top hose of the radiator and unscrew the radiator holder lift the radiator that is just another way to remove it . you need to remove the antifreeze from the radiator prior of removal. That's one of the reason I subject strongly by trying to find that little rubber piece to remove first it will make it much easier, faster and less messy.
To remove the antifreeze from the radiator unscrew that little white plastic thumb screw with your hand located on the bottom left side facing the truck or the passenger side.

An alternative way is to jack up the passenger side and remove the front passenger wheel. Carefully unclip the mud flap from the inside of the wheel well and you'll see the alternator hanging right there. Look under/behind the alternator for the tensioner bolt and loosen it. Remove the belt from the alternator. Then disconnect both wires from the back of the alternator (careful not to break them). There are only two bolts holding the alternator. One is on the bottom and one is on the top. The top one is easier to reach from above and the bottom one is easier through the wheel well. It's helpful to have a helper as the alternator will just drop when you remove the mounting bolts. The alternator can be pulled out through the passenger wheel well and the new one can be put in in reverse of the above steps. It shouldn't take more than 1.5 hours if you don't know what you are doing. If you are somewhat capable then you can knock it out in an hour or less. The only belt you'll need to worry about tensioning is the alternator once you get the new one in place. Make sure you get it right. Too tight and you'll kill the bearings quickly, too loose and you'll burn up your belts, squeal, etc. You can get a little cheap belt tension gauge at NAPA that you just press onto the belt until is snaps. It will then tell you the tension within an acceptable margin of error. They sell for less than $20.00 or you can spring for the expensive one if you have loads of cash sitting around.
To me, draining the radiator and removing all the belts, etc. is a bit overkill for such a simple procedure.
Cost to replace O2 sensor on a 2002 Mitsubishi Montero sport?
If its just one sensor, it is usually about $90 each sensor. Just a recommendation, do not use the wire yourself models, they don't last as long. Keep in mind that there are 4 02 sensors on that rig. You will need to get a obd unit to scan the problem and tell you what sensor on what bank is bad. Hope that helps

Many things could cause your service engine soon light to come on. Every time you start the engine, the computer does a self-diagnostic test. If it finds any faults, it will illuminate the light. I would recomend you find an OBD ( On Board Diagnostic) tester and read the code. Autozone will perform this service for free. They will read the code and tell you what is causing your light to come on.

It's easy they are right in the front of the car. Just look behind the headlight and you will see a thing sticking out with wires in it. Give that thing a half turn and it will pop out then you can change the bulb.
An even easier way is to go to the local Kragen or AutoZone and buy the bulb then ask one of the guys there to put it in. They don't care, they do it all the time. It takes 30 seconds or so to do it.

The alarm and the horn are interconnected in some models, if you pulled the fuse from the alarm it might have caused a surge big enough to blow the horns fuse, just replace it. You just have to make sure that the fuse you took from the alarm is back on. If the alarm is not working, disable it properly and not by removing a fuse.
