Some Mitsubishi Montero Sport owners report experiencing transmission issues, such as failure to engage in drive when warm. Common causes include low or no transmission fluid, which can lead to slipping, and overheating problems that may result in similar symptoms. Additionally, some owners notice strange noises and grinding sounds due to warm needle bearings, indicating potential transmission issues. In severe cases, a complete loss of drive can render the vehicle undrivable. It is recommended for owners experiencing these symptoms to have their transmission system checked by a qualified mechanic for proper diagnosis and resolution.
