Questions About 2002 Mitsubishi Montero Sport’s Transmission

  • What happens when you "ride" your Mitsubishi's brakes? Riding the brakes or keeping your foot on the brake pedal (even lightly) can lead to transmission issues. Remember that when you’re driving down winding roads, and opt for engine braking when possible.
  • How much can my Mitsubishi tow?   Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how small. The added load can mess with your transmission system if it exceeds your Montero Sport’s towing capacity. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Montero Sport is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • Does my Montero Sport's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Regularly checking and exchanging your 2002 Montero Sport’s transmission fluid is one of the best ways to help the transmission system perform. 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 Mitsubishi Montero Sport transmission fluid leak? Yes. Mitsubishi Montero Sport 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.

A transmission fluid leak may lead to decreased performance, overheating, and possibly even transmission failure.
