2001 Mitsubishi Montero Drivetrain Service

The drivetrain is responsible for transferring power from your Montero's engine to its wheels. It spans the full length of your Mitsubishi, from back to front. It’s a very intricate system of moving parts and is comprised of everything after the engine transmission: axles, wheels, driveshafts, differentials, and joints. When you maintain the drivetrain in your 2001 Mitsubishi Montero, 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 Montero Drivetrain Repairs

Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are not all the same. You don't want to go to any random shop for drivetrain repair. You want to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can help repair all of your 2001 Mitsubishi Montero drivetrain components including the driveshaft, CV axles, and CV joints. Your Montero might need driveshaft repair if you notice vibration as your vehicle accelerates, clunks when shifting, heavy vibrations in your floorboards, or resistance when turning. It's hard to put a timeframe on drivetrain repair. The system's pieces and parts don't necessarily have a "shelf life." So much depends on the climate and your driving style. 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 Montero.

How much does it cost to fix your 2001 Mitsubishi Montero drivetrain? Again, it depends! Some more minor differential repairs, like gasket or seal replacement, are usually pretty affordable. Big repairs, like bearing or gear replacement, can be a little more expensive since the labor is much more intensive.

Got drivetrain problems? Then you’ve got driving problems. Get answers to everyday 2001 Mitsubishi Montero drivetrain questions, and stop by your neighborhood Firestone Complete Auto Care today.

  • How does Mitsubishi drivetrain maintenance help save money? Yes. Servicing the drivetrain system can help you avoid more significant repairs. A bad drivetrain can put more stress on other vehicle components.
  • How do I know if my Mitsubishi drivetrain is damaged? Hear noises toward the back of your Mitsubishi Montero? See fluid leaking? Having issues turning? These could all be signs of drivetrain damage you don't want to ignore. Take action quickly to catch repairs or replacements before something more severe happens.
  • How often will I need Mitsubishi Montero 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.
  • What causes a Montero’s malfunction indicator light (MIL) to illuminate? Engine problems, transmission problems, faulty sensors, electrical issues, misfire issues, and connector problems could all cause your Montero’s malfunction warning light, or better known as the check engine light, to illuminate.
  • Can you clear the Montero check engine light on your own? While it’s sometimes possible to clear a malfunction warning light at home, it’s never recommended. If your Montero’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.
  • How concerning is a drivetrain malfunction in my Montero? A drivetrain malfunction in your Montero 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 Montero drivetrain include the transmission? Yes, the transmission is a key component of the drivetrain system in your Montero. 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.
