Mitsubishi · Transmission Repair
Fluid service, mechatronics and full rebuilds for automatics and CVTs. Priced per Mitsubishi model, not per brand.
What follows is what transmission repair on a Mitsubishi specifically involves, what it costs, and what we check while the car is with us.
Every visit includes a battery health test — not a voltage reading, a load test — because a Mitsubishi in Dubai is on a two-to-three year battery cycle and the cheapest time to find a failing one is while somebody is already looking at the car. We also check charging voltage, because a battery that keeps going flat is usually an alternator story.
Several manufacturers describe their transmission fluid as lifetime fill. The lifetime in question is the warranty period, not the car's. In Dubai heat, fluid that has never been changed at 120,000 km is the most common single cause of the failures we rebuild.
A jolt into gear, a flare between ratios or a refusal to select drive when cold is far more often a solenoid, a pressure sensor or a mechatronic fault than worn clutch packs. Those are days of work apart in cost, and the diagnosis takes an hour.
Mitsubishi is a Japanese make, and high-mileage Pajeros and L200s in the UAE are usually working vehicles, and the alternator wears alongside the battery — testing both together avoids the second call-out. For a transmission repair specifically that means we price the parts to the model rather than the badge, and we check the items that go alongside it on this range instead of quoting a flat figure and finding out later.
Pick your model for the price and the labour time that apply to your car.
The engine revs climb without the car accelerating proportionally, most obviously under load or on an incline. Any delay between selecting drive and the car moving is the same warning.
A pressure flush on a neglected high-mileage box can dislodge deposits that were holding pressure and cause immediate failure. We drain, drop the pan and change the filter instead, which is slower and considerably safer.
It varies widely by unit. We quote fixed after inspection, and we always price the alternative — a tested used unit with a warranty — alongside it so you can compare.
Call, or send your location on WhatsApp. We will tell you the price before we set off.
