1987 Mitsubishi Montero Questions & Answers

  • What happens when you "ride" your Mitsubishi's brakes? Riding the brakes (keeping your foot lightly pressed on the brake pedal for a long time) can lead to transmission issues over time. Keep that in mind when driving in hilly terrain and remember to use engine braking when possible.
  • How much can I tow in a Mitsubishi Montero? Think twice before volunteering to tow a moving trailer, no matter how light the load might seem. Defying your Montero towing capacity can spell trouble for the transmission system. Double check your owner's manual to ensure your Montero is equipped with a towing setup and can handle whatever you're thinking about towing.
  • Does my Montero's transmission fluid need to be inspected? Maintaining your Mitsubishi Montero transmission fluid is one of the best ways to maintain your transmission's health. About every 30,000 to 60,000 miles is a good timeframe for having your transmission fluid inspected and perhaps changed. Service intervals can vary depending on how you use your Mitsubishi, so check with your technician first. The good news is that transmission fluid leaks are affordable to repair and easy to spot.
  • Can transmission fluid leak from my Mitsubishi Montero? Yes. Mitsubishi Montero transmission fluid can leak over time and potentially cause transmission issues.
