Delica Canada | Mitsubishi Van Club

When I bring the '97 SpaceGear into reverse it will back up for a bit but as soon as I really try speed up the gear comes loose and does not engage again till the van has slowed down enough, then i can feel it re-engage the reverse gear. I just had all the axel oils replaced and tranny oil and it did not do this before. Any ideas?
Also the neutral indicator is lit up as well as the reverse on the dash when I put it into reversre. Is this normal?

TIA

Not normal to have the N and R lit at the same time. Possibly your transmission ECU. Could try disconnecting and cleaning the leads with a good electrical contact cleaner. All your other shifting is fine?

Check your fluid level- on the L300 the fluid level is checked with the fluid hot, engine running, and gear in Park. (This may be different on an L400, check the workshop manual). I doubt a transmission fluid change place would bother to get the fluid warm before checking fluid level.

Poochike: Thanks for the info about the lights. All other shifting is fine. Will look into cleaning the leads.

Growler: I will look into the tranny fluid levels as well.

Thanks guys
