Not really. The idea was to induce additional pressure in the system which, if there was a weakness in the engine that didn't manifest itself during the tests done in the dealership, would after a period of time. For those engines that had no problem the additional pressure wouldn't harm them.

It's Mitsubishi QA that's the real worry, I reckon.
My MN passed the cooling system test and then shit itself 300km from home in the bush.

Sure and I never said anything of the sort.
I've owned 5 Mitsubishi vehicles and I got unlucky with the MN.
In my case, the issue was fixed under warranty with no dramas and the replacement motor is running well so far.
None of that changes the fact that I'm suss on Mitsubishi QA now and probably wouldn't touch another one because of my experience.
