1987 Mitsubishi Galant Questions & Answers

  • What happens if I "ride" my Mitsubishi's brakes? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Mitsubishi tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow your friend's moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Galant’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Galant is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • Does my Galant's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Maintaining your Mitsubishi Galant transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. 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. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can Mitsubishi Galant transmission fluid leak? Yes, your Mitsubishi Galant can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your Galant 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.

  • Is it okay to drive a Galant with a transmission fluid leak? Driving with a transmission fluid leak is not recommended. Transmission fluid is essential to the proper operation of the transmission system, and a leak can cause serious problems, including reduced performance, overheating, and potentially transmission failure.
