2017 Mitsubishi Lancer Transmission Q&A

  • What happens when you "ride" your Mitsubishi's brakes? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Mitsubishi Lancer? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Lancer’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Lancer is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • Does my Lancer's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2017 Lancer’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. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Is it possible for transmission fluid to leak from my Mitsubishi Lancer? Yes, your Mitsubishi Lancer can develop a transmission fluid leak. As your Lancer 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.
