What Does Your Mitsubishi Eclipse Transmission Do?

The transmission delivers power from the motor to your wheels so that you can drive at your desired speed. Since the transmission has to translate the precise amount of power for your desired amount of speed, a small transmission issue can put a big dent in your Eclipse’s performance. Such problems aren’t hard to spot. 1992 Mitsubishi Eclipse transmission problems could include shifting delays, grinding when accelerating, the car shaking at any speed, or a burning smell or whistling sounds coming from under the hood. If you ignore Mitsubishi Eclipse transmission issues you might notice your fuel economy decrease or find that your Eclipse isn’t working at all.

Questions About 1992 Mitsubishi Eclipse’s Transmission

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Mitsubishi? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Mitsubishi tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small. Defying your Eclipse towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Check your owner's manual to ensure you have the proper towing setup and aren't going over your towing capacity.
  • When should I have my Eclipse's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Regularly checking and exchanging your 1992 Eclipse’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. A general rule of thumb is to have your transmission fluid checked and changed about every 30,000 to 60,000 miles, but that timeline can change if you're hard on your Mitsubishi. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can Mitsubishi Eclipse transmission fluid leak? Yes, your Mitsubishi Eclipse can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your Eclipse 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.

You might even experience transmission failure.
