1996 Mitsubishi Mighty Max Transmission Q&A

  • Is it bad to ride the brakes in your Mitsubishi? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Pay attention to how often you apply your brake and use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Mitsubishi tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small it is. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Mighty Max’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Mighty Max is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • When should I have my Mighty Max's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Maintaining your Mitsubishi Mighty Max transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. 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. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Mitsubishi Mighty Max? Over time, transmission fluid can leak from your Mitsubishi Mighty Max, potentially causing transmission problems. A transmission fluid leak may be caused by a damaged transmission pan, faulty transmission cooler lines, worn-out seals, a cracked transmission housing, or an overfilled transmission.
