Generally, the balance shaft on the Mitsubishi I200 is known for its reliability and does not usually encounter many issues. However, like any component, it can occasionally fail, even though it typically lasts for the entire lifespan of your vehicle. Common signs of problems with the balance shaft include rough running and idling, or even the engine stalling when the I200 is not in gear. Although the balance shaft is not essential for the operation of the vehicle, it is meant to reduce engine vibration and is a refinement feature. If you decide to remove it, there are modification kits available to guide you through the process. While it is more common for the belt on the shaft to break, the shaft itself could also potentially snap. It is important to note that this occurrence is rare, and in most cases, you will not experience it.
