Questions About 2010 Mitsubishi Eclipse’s Transmission

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Mitsubishi? 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 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.
  • How often does my Eclipse transmission fluid need to be checked? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2010 Eclipse’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. Some technicians would say that between 30,000 and 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your Mitsubishi's transmission fluid checked and replaced, but that timeline can vary depending on how your vehicle is used and your manufacturer’s recommendations. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can my Mitsubishi Eclipse leak transmission fluid? Yes. Mitsubishi Eclipse transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems. Transmission fluid leaks are often caused by worn or damaged transmission components, such as the transmission pan, cooler lines, seals, or housing.
