SOURCE: what type of oil for Mitsubishi Colt gear box
First drain completely out whatever is in it. All the gear boxes and rear ends use 90w gear oil. Buy a name brand.Some of the really cheap stuff is recycled used oil.
I hope this helps you.

This dosen't help but.........
I have a similar problem. Every 4 weeks or so the car refuses to start. Again battery is not a problem but if we use cables to jump start from another car it starts fine.
Mitubishi cannot find the answer, only suggestion was to spend £150 on a new key , however the problem has now occured with both of the keys !

There is no simple answer, there are to many variables.
If you have access to a scan tool, pulling the codes should help. Without them its back to old school hunt and peck method.
At this point we need to narrow down the problem. You need to test for spark.
Crank the engine for no more than 2 seconds at a time to prevent flooding the engine with gasoline.
If you have spark, You will want to make sure you have
fuel injector pulse, along with fuel pressure. If you have spark
..simply spray some starting fluid in through the air filter
and hold the gas pedal to the floor and crank it over while spraying.
If it fires up, you know it is fuel related( fuel pump, regulator, or
ECM if no injector pulse) .
If you have no spark then look at ignition coil connection and trace through to the distributor( if equipped ). The crank shaft sensor has a tendency to fail on these as well.
This should give you a few things to test and check to start you on your way to narrowing it down.
If you have no spark then look at ignition coil connection for power and trace through to the distributor( if equipped ). If it is DIS( no distributor). It may be the Crank sensor or the ECU. The crank shaft sensor has a tendency to fail on these as well.
The ECU uses the signal sent from the Crank sensor to trigger the spark and fuel injectors. ( make certain you have checked all fuses)
