Thank you so much for this tutorial, there aren't many tutorials on KZbin for Mitsubishi Colt and this is really helpful! Keep up the good work! 😀👍

[@regularguyrepairguy]

Thank you very much for the nice words!

Great video! If you are open for advice, please consider: - Using jack stands and a safer jack. - When filling the transmission, it is best to have the car level to the ground, so either could use another jack stand to level it out or lower the car to the ground (wheels on) and fill it that way. So you can be sure the correct amount of Transmission fluid is added. Otherwise, great information, keep up the good work!

Thank you so much! My trans became noisy after some time. Hope this fixes this

[@regularguyrepairguy]

Let us know if it made any difference!

[@LightyMiner]

@@regularguyrepairguy Okay so I replaced the oil and at a certain point when I turn thre wheel by hand, the trans gets a little bit stuck. So I will be buying a new trans😭. And I can also smell the clutch buring so I will have to replace it as well. I just dont want to pay a mechanic to do it, they're just scammers. I would like to do it myself. I got jackstands and the basic tools.

Thank you for this insightful video, it helped me big time when i changed my gearbox oil. I ended up using Mannol's 75W-80 gear oil, as most of the sources I looked at recommended that viscosity. One weird thing i noticed, the manual calls for 1.75 liters of oil, but I poured in the entire 2 liters of oil and still none of it poured out of the fill hole (I did it with the car being level). So I'm not sure where the truth is, but I drove more than a thousand kms since then, and the transmission seems to be working fine. Also if you can get under the car, say via a service ditch, then you can easier access the fill hole, you don't need the 5 extensions you used.

What diameter is the hose?

[@regularguyrepairguy]

External diameter is around 8 mm I would say. The hose came with the syringe itself, so I did not buy it separately. Thanks for your comment!

[@Hello_there_obi]

@@regularguyrepairguy thank you man! Could you list the various components you used for the torque wrench? There seems to be some sort of extender and a articulated joint? Im putting together a shopping list! Can’t wait to get stuck in and try this 😊

[@regularguyrepairguy]

@@Hello_there_obi You can see the setup at 1:33. I did not use torque wrench in this case, just regular ratchet and breaker bar. So I've used 8mm hex bit socket, universal articulated joint and extender. I have 1/2 inch socket set from Proxxon which I would highly recommend for general wrenching (Proxxon 23000 Socket set for heavy duty mechanics). I hope that helps and good luck with wrenching on your side. Let us know how it goes!

[@Hello_there_obi]

@@regularguyrepairguy do you not have to tighten everything to a certain torque value though? And thank you I will! You’ve been a big help!

[@regularguyrepairguy]

The most proper way is to use a torque wrench, but on a drain plug there was not enough space to even use a socket (I used a hex key). Also with such extension setup for the filler plug, torque will not be exactly as indicated on the torque wrench. Just use common sense and you should be good.
