    Mitsubishi Magna transmission
    Answered by Graham Smith · 16 February 2012

    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
    Answered by Graham Smith · 30 October 2008

    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.

    Leaky tk
    Answered by Carsguide.com.au · 21 July 2005

    THE most likely place the leak is coming from is the valve-cover gasket, but having changed that, the next most likely source is the head gasket, as you suggest. It is not unknown for the head gasket to leak at the point where the oil supply for the overhead camshafts passes through the gasket.

    Leaking information
    Answered by Graham Smith · 5 August 2004

    IT'S NOT a problem mechanics are familiar with but they say one of the vent hoses on the tank may be blocked, cracked, or even dislodged.
