When should I come in for Mitsubishi i-MiEV differential service?

What causes a i-MiEV’s malfunction indicator light (MIL) to illuminate?

Is it possible to reset the i-MiEV malfunction warning light on my own?

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

What Does the Drivetrain Do In Your 2017 Mitsubishi i-MiEV

Your i-MiEV’s drivetrain has a very important job. It transmits power from the engine to the wheels. It spans the full length of your Mitsubishi, from back to front. It’s a very intricate system of moving parts and is comprised of everything after the engine transmission: differentials, driveshafts, joints, axles, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2017 Mitsubishi i-MiEV, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can minimize repairs by following Mitsubishi's recommendations for checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears.

What Are Mitsubishi i-MiEV Drivetrain Repairs

You don't want to go to just anyone for drivetrain repair. Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are all different. You want to go to Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can take care of most 2017 Mitsubishi i-MiEV drivetrain components including the CV axles, joints, and driving shaft. Your Mitsubishi i-MiEV may need driveshaft attention if you feel vibration as your vehicle accelerates, clunks when shifting, heavy vibrations in your floorboards, or resistance when turning. There isn’t necessarily a concrete timeframe for when drivetrain repair will be needed. The system's pieces and parts don't necessarily have a "shelf life." Your driving style and climate can have a lot to do with how the drivetrain system ages. That’s one reason it’s a wise idea to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care at the first sign your Mitsubishi i-MiEV doesn’t drive like it used to.

Is normal to wonder whether or not 2017 Mitsubishi i-MiEV drivetrain repair is expensive. Minor differential repairs, like gasket or seal replacement, can lean toward being more affordable. But bigger repairs, like bearing or gear replacement, can be a little more expensive since the labor is much more intensive.
