Mitsubishi Magna 1998 FAQs

Mitsubishi Magna transmission

It would appear the fluid has been overheated, so I would be doing a full flush of the transmission, not just a fluid change. I wouldn't bother about the coolant.

Making a family choice

THE Camry is a good choice. It's a reliable model and won't cost an arm and a leg to run. I would also consider the Nissan Maxima A32, which fits your budget, and don't forget the Mitsubishi Magna. You will get a later-model Magna for the same money.
