Mitsubishi Magna 1998 Q&As
Check out real-world situations relating to the Mitsubishi Magna 1998 here, particularly what our experts have to say about them.
-
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.

Leaky tk
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.
