1998 Mitsubishi Montero Sport Questions & Answers

  • What happens if I "ride" my 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.
  • How much can my Mitsubishi tow?   Think twice before offering to tow something for a friend, no matter how light the load might seem. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Montero Sport’s towing capacity. Check your owner's manual to ensure you have the proper towing setup and aren't going over your towing capacity.
  • When should I have my Montero Sport's transmission fluid checked or exchanged? Caring for your Mitsubishi Montero Sport’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. Luckily, leaks and low fluid levels are easy to spot and inexpensive to fix.
  • Can my Mitsubishi Montero Sport leak transmission fluid? Yes. Mitsubishi Montero Sport 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.
