Two Very Different Generations Under One Name
The current ASX shares its underlying platform and mechanicals with the Renault Captur, following Mitsubishi's alliance-driven redesign — a genuinely different mechanical basis from older, Japanese-engineered generations of the same nameplate. Always confirm which generation you actually have before ordering.
Mitsubishi ASX Brake Pads: What They Do
Brake pads clamp against the discs to convert the car's momentum into heat, slowing it down. The current generation of the ASX uses braking components shared with its Renault Captur sibling, which can make parts sourcing more straightforward given the wider availability of Renault-group components.
Common Sizes
| Current generation (front) | Standard size — confirm via VIN, shares parts with Renault Captur |
|---|---|
| Older Japanese-built generations | Different specification — confirm separately via VIN |

A Genuinely Persistent, Real Account Worth Knowing About — Mitsubishi ASX Brake Pads
If a squeak keeps returning despite repeated dealer visits, this is genuinely worth knowing: documented cases on related Mitsubishi models describe anti-rattle clips behind the pads heating up and bending out of shape, causing recurring noise even after multiple replacement attempts. It's worth asking your dealer directly whether updated or modified anti-rattle clips are available, since these have been documented as existing specifically to address this recurring issue.
It's also genuinely worth knowing that a clicking or squeaking noise specifically triggered by switching between reverse and drive is a documented, relatively common characteristic on this platform caused by the pads shifting slightly within the calipers — this should settle down after continuing to drive forward for a short distance.
