1987 Mitsubishi Mirage Drivetrain Service

Your Mirage’s drivetrain has a very important job. It transmits power from the engine to the wheels. It runs the full length of your Mitsubishi, from the axles to the transmission. It's one of the most complex systems in your Mirage and is made up of everything after the engine transmission: driveshafts, axles, joints, differentials, and wheels. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 1987 Mitsubishi Mirage, you help maintain your vehicle's power. You can help prevent repairs by checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears according to Mitsubishi's recommendations.

What Are Mitsubishi Mirage Drivetrain Repairs

You don't want to go to just anyone for drivetrain repair. Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are all different. You want to go to Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can fix many 1987 Mitsubishi Mirage drivetrain components including the CV axles, joints, and driving shaft. Your Mirage might need driveshaft repair if you notice heavy vibrations in your floorboards, clunks when shifting, resistance when turning, or vibration as your vehicle accelerates. There isn’t necessarily a concrete timeframe for when drivetrain repair will be needed. There’s no expiration date on the system’s pieces and parts. Your driving style and climate can have a lot to do with how the drivetrain system ages. One of your best courses of action is to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care when you first notice that something feels "off" with your Mitsubishi Mirage.

How much does it cost to fix your 1987 Mitsubishi Mirage drivetrain? Some smaller differential fixes, like gasket or seal replacement, can lean toward being more affordable. But bigger repairs, like gear or bearing replacement, require more labor and can therefore be more expensive.

1987 Mitsubishi Mirage Drivetrain Questions

When you have drivetrain problems, you have driving problems. Check out our top 1987 Mitsubishi Mirage drivetrain Q&A below, and visit your nearest Firestone Complete Auto Care with any drivetrain concerns.

  • Can Mitsubishi service save me money? Servicing the drivetrain system can help you save money by saving other parts of your vehicle. A bad drivetrain can put undue stress on other vehicle parts and lead to premature wear and tear.
  • How do I know if my Mitsubishi drivetrain is damaged? Your Mitsubishi Mirage drivetrain might be damaged if you notice strange noises from the rear of your vehicle, see fluid leaking, or have issues turning.
  • How often should I come in for Mitsubishi Mirage differential service? We recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine. Your vehicle cannot function without a differential. Differential service frequency varies from car to car.
  • Why is the malfunction indicator light (MIL) on in my Mirage? A multitude of problems can activate your Mirage’s malfunction indicator light (better known as the check engine light), including issues with the engine, transmission, sensors, electrical system, or connectors.
  • Can my Mirage malfunction warning light be reset at home? While it’s sometimes possible to clear a malfunction warning light at home, it’s never recommended. If your Mirage’s check engine light comes on, it’s usually because there is a problem in one of the vehicle’s systems. You should find and address the underlying issue to help keep your vehicle in great shape. By simply resetting the check engine light, you may temporarily get rid of the light, but the underlying problem is still there. It will only be a matter of time before the light comes back.
  • Is a drivetrain malfunction in my Mirage serious? A drivetrain malfunction in your Mirage should never be taken lightly. Driving with a malfunctioning drivetrain can put you in danger and lead to further vehicle damage, so it's essential to have a qualified mechanic assess and repair the problem as soon as possible.
  • Does my Mirage drivetrain include the transmission? Yes, the transmission is a key component of the drivetrain system in your Mirage. The drivetrain is the system of components that delivers power from the engine to the wheels to propel the vehicle forward. It includes the transmission, driveshaft, differential, and axles.
