Hello all! I do not know where to post if is not here please move it. The car is Evo X 2008 MR I have a car about 1 year and recently i hear strange noise from t-case or transmission for about 2-3 sec randomly 1 time per 2-3 days.
Recently I noticed that when I accelerate quickly this happens:
The lamp lights up and remains lit until return throttle. Then there is no problem.
This only happens when accelerating from a place or full throttle in corner.
I have cobb AP V3 but because there is no maps for my region and no ATR I only use to check for errors.
This is 2 sec after the Video:
What can light this lamp? In my country there are no mechanics to fix t-case or gearbox, and if any of them fail I will have to straighten by myself!
When is the last time you changed your transmission fluid?
Have you checked the AYC fluid level in your trunk to make sure it is full?
First places to start.
Transmission Fluid was change before 3 mount whit the filter (8l oil )
AYC fluid level is on the max and when i start engine drop to middle (i change this oil before 6 mount whit original Mitsubishi oil )
Now i read it can be brake fluid , my brake pads are old. Tonight I will check.
Make sure the AYC system in bled properly if it was touched for whatever reason.
Do an oil change on the transfer case and look out for metal in the oil, your transfer case might be eating itself slowly.
A little late but better late than never. The problem turned out to be super simple. The pads were worn and the level of brake fluid was just enough not to activate the lamp, but in case of strong acceleration or cornering, the fluid moves and activates the lamp only for the moment of acceleration.
