Removal And Installation: Notes
WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2012 Mitsubishi Lancer. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
CAUTION:
- When the transaxle assembly is replaced, save the vehicle identification number and perform the variant coding. Refer to the M.U.T.-III Owner's Manual and perform coding.
- When the transaxle control cable is disconnected, check after the installation that the cable is properly connected, and that the parking lock mechanism operates normally. At this time, do not check by simply using the display on the combination meter and shift indicator panel. Always check according to the procedure below.
- When driving at 5 km/h (3.1 mph) or less, the vehicle stops when the shift lever is moved to the P range.
- With the P range, the vehicle does not move on a slight slope or when pushed by hands.
- Drain the fluid remaining in the oil cooler before installing the transaxle assembly.
- Do not refill the fluid when replacing the transaxle assembly with a new one.
NOTE:
- The new transaxle assembly is filled with 7.6 dm3 (8.0 qt) of the fluid (including the oil cooler).
- The transaxle assembly has a sealed structure, and the fluid does not drain out from parts other than the oil cooler hose.
