1998 Mitsubishi 3000GT Transmission Q&A

  • What happens if I "ride" my Mitsubishi's brakes? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Mitsubishi? Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how small. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your 3000GT’s towing capacity. Always consult your owner's manual before towing or hauling something.
  • When should I have my 3000GT's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Maintaining your Mitsubishi 3000GT transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. About every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your transmission fluid inspected and perhaps changed. Service intervals can vary depending on how you use your Mitsubishi, so check with your technician first. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can my Mitsubishi 3000GT leak transmission fluid? Yes, your Mitsubishi 3000GT can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your 3000GT ages, parts of the transmission system might wear out or break down, leading to a leak and possible transmission issues. Common causes of transmission fluid leaks include worn seals, a damaged transmission housing, a loose or cracked transmission pan, an overfilled transmission, or faulty transmission lines.
