Can Mitsubishi drivetrain maintenance help me save money?

Servicing the drivetrain system can help you save money by saving other parts of your vehicle. A bad drivetrain can put undue stress on other vehicle parts and lead to premature wear and tear.

What are the symptoms of a damaged Mitsubishi drivetrain system?

Your Mitsubishi 3000GT drivetrain might be damaged if you notice strange noises from the rear of your vehicle, see fluid leaking, or have issues turning.

How often will I need Mitsubishi 3000GT differential service?

Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician. Differential service frequency varies from car to car.

Why is the malfunction indicator light (MIL) on in my 3000GT?

If your 3000GT has its malfunction warning light (more commonly called the check engine light) illuminated, it could indicate engine troubles, problems with the transmission, electrical issues, malfunctioning sensors, connector problems, or misfire issues.

Can my 3000GT malfunction warning light be reset at home?

It may be tempting to reset the malfunction warning light on your 3000GT, but it's important to resist the urge.

Is a drivetrain malfunction in my 3000GT serious?

Is my 3000GT’s transmission part of the drivetrain?

Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your 3000GT’s drivetrain.
