Given that this is symbiotic relationship, this probably works in both ways but given that number of genes coded in mitos is low its probably way harder to notice the effect.
So it might happen that even if 100% of 'old mitochondria' is cleared the new symbiosis will also be defective as some of the 40 genes required by the hosting cell might be missing with new mito lineage replacing the original one.
