1988 Mitsubishi Mighty Max Questions & Answers

  • What happens when you "ride" your Mitsubishi's brakes? Keeping your foot on the brake pedal or lightly but consistently pushing it down can lead to transmission problems. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • What can I tow in a Mitsubishi? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small. The added weight can cause issues with your transmission if your vehicle isn't equipped to handle the load. 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. 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. Leaks or low transmission fluid are easy to spot and affordable to repair.
  • Can Mitsubishi Mighty Max transmission fluid leak? Yes. Mitsubishi Mighty Max transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues. Worn or damaged seals, a loose or damaged transmission pan, a cracked transmission housing, faulty transmission cooler lines, or an overfilled transmission could cause transmission fluid leaks.
