2001 mitsubishi galant was driving in cruise on the interstate at 75mph and all the sudden the rpm revved all the way up then dropped to zero.. I pulled over turned of car restarted it and the car would rev but not move in any gear.. Acts like its in neutral.. Tranny shop said the pump is bad and needs to b rebuilt. Anyone had tho done? An did the same problems reoccur after having it done?

SOURCE: 2001 Mitsubishi Galant Transmission problem?

Could be a few things:

  1. Low on auto transmission fluid; this would cause you to lose a few of the forward gears (reverse is used less often so its the last gear to go Start the car and add fluid to the specified markings on the Auto Transmission dipstick
  2. Bad auto transmission fluid; Check the fluid, if its brown and gives off a burning smell, it needs changing along with the filter
  3. Bad transmisssion; if neither of the above are true, then it sounds like the clutches have burned out on the transmission or the transmission itself is bad; if 1 or 2 hasn't solved your issue the car needs to be diagnosed at a reputable transmission shop; Make sure they lay out all of your options and if you decide to have a major transmission repair done, the Kelly Blue Book value on a similar car similarlly equipted in exellent condition is about $6,800 retail
I hope this leads you in the right direction. Don't be afraid to post back with any questions. Best of luck.

You need to have it put on a scanner to look at live data. The only way to find the answer is with diagnostic equipment and the knowledge to understand it.

Take out the ECU and remove the metal case. Look for leaking electrolytic caps and/or a fishy smell. If you see any burned areas, the ECU is dead.

My 1997 mitsubishi galant idles at 1000rpm. soon as on gear(like drive/reverse) rpm drops to 500 rpm and runs rough. if I run the A/C the engine runs rough and seems like it has no power to move on drive...

Have you run an error check on vehicle. You can have this done for free at most auto parts stores. Almost sounds like the idle sensor is having issues, but can not be sure at this point. Make sure the choke isn't sticking or hanging up if carbureted.

2001 mitsubishi galant, cruise is working properly but on dashboard no sign of cruise?? Is this an easy fix like changing of fuse or is it major problem ?? Again cruise working have no problem just light...

does cruise light come on when you start the car, during the lamp check stage (during first seconds of starting) If it doesn't then the indicator lamp is probably out.

RPM drops to zero at idling after engine accelerates when warm

This may been an ignition module or a MAF sensor, this car may need to be diagnosed using a OBD I computer code reader to accurately diagnose the problem.
