What are signs my Mitsubishi drivetrain is damaged?

Hear noises toward the back of your Mitsubishi Outlander? 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 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.

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

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.

Is it possible to reset the Outlander malfunction warning light on my own?

While it’s sometimes possible to clear a malfunction warning light at home, it’s never recommended. If your Outlander’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 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.

Does my Outlander transmission belong to the drivetrain system?

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.
