2015 Mitsubishi ASX pedal pads — what they do and how to keep them in top nick
Based on Mitsubishi’s factory Service Manual for the GA2W ASX/RVR (Outlander Sport) platform and the Mitsubishi ASA electronic parts catalogue, the 2015 Mitsubishi ASX is fitted with rubber pedal pads on the brake pedal, and on the clutch pedal in manual variants. The accelerator is an electronic pedal module with a hard tread that’s typically replaced as a complete assembly rather than as a separate pad. So yes — pedal pads are relevant and used on this model.
On the ASX, pedal pads are the grippy rubber covers that sit over the metal pedal plates. Their job is simple but critical: deliver traction for the driver’s shoes in the wet and dry, absorb a bit of vibration for comfort, and keep the vehicle compliant for roadworthy or WOF checks. A tidy, high-friction pedal surface helps prevent slips under hard braking or when moving off in a manual, and that’s exactly what a fresh pedal pad provides.
As part of routine servicing, it’s smart to give the pedal pads a quick once-over. Clean them with mild soapy water to remove mud, sand and silicone residues, then dry thoroughly. Avoid dressings or protectants that can make the rubber slick. If the pad has gone shiny, hardened, cracked or started to peel at the edges, it’s time to swap it out. For automatic ASX models, you’ll be checking just the brake pad, for manuals, check both brake and clutch.
- Signs it’s due for replacement:
- Glazed, slippery or “polished” surface
- Cracks, splits, or chunks missing
- Pad lip not fully seated around the metal pedal
- Foot slipping under wet shoes
- Quick replacement tips:
- Pop the old pad off by pulling the rubber lip over the pedal plate
- Warm the new pad in hot (not boiling) water to soften
- Hook the bottom edge first, then work the lip around with thumbs
- Confirm it’s evenly seated with no twists or gaps
- Press the pedal to ensure full, unobstructed travel
Genuine or high‑quality aftermarket pads that match the ASX pedal plate are the go, avoid universal metal covers that can loosen or reduce grip. As a rule of thumb, inspect every service or 10,000–15,000 kilometres, and replace at the first sign of wear. It’s a cheap, five‑minute job that pays off in feel and safety.
Does the 2015 Mitsubishi ASX have pedal pads on all pedals?
It has a rubber pad on the brake pedal for all models, and a rubber pad on the clutch pedal for manual variants. The accelerator pedal is an electronic module with a hard tread and is typically replaced as a complete unit, not as a separate pad.
How often should pedal pads be replaced on an ASX?
There’s no fixed interval. Inspect them at every service. Replace as soon as they’re shiny, cracked, hard, loose, or slippery — commonly every few years depending on driving conditions, footwear and climate.
Can universal pedal covers be used?
Not recommended. The safest bet is ASX‑specific pads that seat properly on the pedal plate. Universal or bolt‑on metal covers can reduce grip or foul the pedal, and may not meet local roadworthy/WOF expectations.
