2011 Mitsubishi Eclipse Transmission Q&A

  • 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.
  • How much can my Mitsubishi tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how small it is. Defying your Eclipse towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Eclipse is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • Does my Eclipse's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Caring for your Mitsubishi Eclipse’s transmission fluid is a great way to help it perform. 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 Eclipse leak transmission fluid? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Mitsubishi Eclipse, potentially causing transmission problems.
