Can Mitsubishi drivetrain maintenance help me save 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 Outlander drivetrain might be damaged if you notice strange noises from the rear of your vehicle, see fluid leaking, or have issues turning.

When should I come in for Mitsubishi Outlander differential service?

Differential service frequency varies from car to car. Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician. We generally recommend getting your differential inspected and the differential fluid changed as a part of your regular vehicle maintenance routine since your vehicle cannot function without a differential.

Why is my Outlander malfunction indicator light (MIL) on?

The malfunction indicator light — also known as the check engine light — on your Outlander can illuminate for a variety of reasons, including engine issues, electrical problems, damaged sensors, transmission problems, misfires, and faulty connections.

Can you clear the Outlander check engine light on your own?

While resetting a malfunction warning light at home is technically possible, doing so is not advisable. The check engine light is typically a sign of a problem in one of your Outlander's systems, and simply resetting the light will not address the underlying issue. Instead, you should bring your vehicle to a reliable auto shop to have the underlying problem identified and fixed to help ensure the safety and reliability of your Outlander.

How concerning is a drivetrain malfunction in my Outlander?

Don't ignore a drivetrain malfunction in your Outlander. As soon as you notice a problem, have it checked by a professional mechanic to diagnose the issue and carry out any necessary repairs. Driving with a faulty drivetrain is risky and may further damage your Outlander.

Is my Outlander’s transmission part of the drivetrain?

Yes, the transmission is an essential part of your Outlander’s drivetrain. The drivetrain consists of components — like the transmission — that transfer power from the engine to the wheels to move your Outlander forward. Other components in the driver train include the axles, differential, and driveshaft.

All About 2015 Mitsubishi Outlander Drivetrain Service

Your Outlander drivetrain transfers power from your engine to the wheels. It spans the length of your vehicle, from the transmission to the axles. It’s one of your Outlander’s most complex systems and includes everything after the engine transmission: differentials, driveshafts, joints, axles, and wheels. Care for your 2015 Mitsubishi Outlander to maintain its performance power. You can help prevent repairs by checking and changing differential fluids, and lubricating bearings and gears according to Mitsubishi's recommendations.

When to Get Mitsubishi Outlander Drivetrain Repairs

Drivetrains for front, rear, and all-wheel-drive and 4WD vehicles are quite different, so you don't want to go to just anyone for drivetrain repair. You want to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care. We can help repair all of your 2015 Mitsubishi Outlander drivetrain components including the driveshaft, CV axles, and CV joints. Your Mitsubishi could be crying out for driveshaft repair if you notice resistance when turning, heavy vibrations in your floorboards, clunks when shifting, or vibration as your vehicle accelerates. There isn’t necessarily a concrete timeframe for when drivetrain repair will be needed. The system’s parts and pieces don’t have a set expiration date. A lot depends on your driving style and climate. Your best bet is to visit Firestone Complete Auto Care when you first notice a problem with how your Mitsubishi Outlander drives.

You might be wondering: how much will it cost to fix the drivetrain in your 2015 Mitsubishi Outlander? Minor differential repairs, like seal or gasket replacement, can fall in the more affordable category. But bigger repairs, like gear or bearing replacement, can be a little more expensive since the labor is much more intensive.
