Can Mitsubishi drivetrain maintenance help me save money?

Yes. Servicing the drivetrain system can help you avoid more significant repairs. A bad drivetrain can put more stress on other vehicle components.

What are the symptoms of a damaged Mitsubishi drivetrain system?

Hear noises toward the back of your Mitsubishi Lancer? See fluid leaking? Having issues turning? These could all be signs of drivetrain damage you don't want to ignore. Take action quickly to catch repairs or replacements before something more severe happens.

How often should I come in for Mitsubishi Lancer differential service?

Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician. Differential service frequency varies from car to car. At a minimum, we recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine since your vehicle cannot function without a differential.

What causes a Lancer’s malfunction indicator light (MIL) to illuminate?

A multitude of problems can activate your Lancer’s malfunction indicator light (better known as the check engine light), including issues with the engine, transmission, sensors, electrical system, or connectors.

Can you reset your Lancer’s malfunction warning light at home?

While resetting a malfunction warning light at home is technically possible, doing so is not advisable. The check engine light is typically a sign of a problem in one of your Lancer's systems, and simply resetting the light will not address the underlying issue. Instead, you should bring your vehicle to a reliable auto shop to have the underlying problem identified and fixed to help ensure the safety and reliability of your Lancer.

How concerning is a drivetrain malfunction in my Lancer?

If your Lancer has a drivetrain malfunction, don't wait. Get it checked out by a professional mechanic. Identifying the underlying cause and performing the appropriate repairs right away can help prevent further damage and avoid unsafe driving conditions.

Is my Lancer’s transmission part of the drivetrain?

The transmission is a crucial part of your drivetrain system. The drivetrain in your Lancer is responsible for transferring power from the engine to the wheels to move the vehicle forward. This system consists of several components, including the transmission, driveshaft, differential, and axles.

2007 Mitsubishi Lancer Drivetrain Service

Your Lancer drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It spans the full length of your Mitsubishi, from back to front. It’s one of your Lancer’s most complex systems and includes everything after the engine transmission: driveshafts, axles, joints, differentials, and wheels. Care for your 2007 Mitsubishi Lancer to maintain its performance power. You can help prevent repairs by checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears according to Mitsubishi's recommendations.

Mitsubishi Lancer Drivetrain Repairs

Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are quite different, so you don't want to go to just anyone for drivetrain repair. You want to come see the technicians at Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can help repair all of your 2007 Mitsubishi Lancer drivetrain components including the CV joints, CV axles, and driveshaft. Your Mitsubishi Lancer 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 parts and pieces don’t have a set expiration date. Your driving style and climate can have a lot to do with how the drivetrain system ages. Your best bet is to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care when you first notice a problem with how your Mitsubishi Lancer drives.

How much does it cost to fix your 2007 Mitsubishi Lancer drivetrain? Again, it depends! Some more minor differential repairs, like seal or gasket replacement, can fall in the more affordable category. But bigger repairs, like bearing or gear replacement, require more labor and can therefore be more expensive.
