1985 Mitsubishi Mighty Max Transmission Q&A

  • What happens if I "ride" my 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. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to 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 light the load might seem. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Mighty Max’s towing capacity. Check your owner's manual to ensure you have the proper towing setup and aren't going over your towing capacity.
  • Does my Mighty Max's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Caring for your Mitsubishi Mighty Max’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. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can my Mitsubishi Mighty Max leak transmission fluid? Yes. Mitsubishi Mighty Max transmission fluid can leak as time passes, which may lead to transmission problems. Transmission fluid leaks are often caused by worn or damaged transmission components, such as the transmission pan, cooler lines, seals, or housing. An overfilled transmission may also be behind your transmission fluid leak.
