Engine Variants Covered:
Likely covers Mitsubishi's 6A1x V6 engines (e.g., 6A12 2.0L, 6A13 2.5L) and potentially 4-cylinder options if fitted to TR/TS models
Horsepower Range:
Estimated 110 kW to 150 kW (147 hp to 201 hp) depending on engine displacement and configuration
Torque Range:
Estimated 180 Nm to 260 Nm (133 lb-ft to 192 lb-ft) depending on engine displacement and configuration
Fuel Injection Type:
Multi-point fuel injection (MPI)
Configuration:
V6 (commonly 60-degree bank angle) and possibly Inline 4-cylinder options
Design:
DOHC (Dual Overhead Camshaft) with 4 valves per cylinder is typical for V6 variants
Cooling System Type:
Pressurized liquid-cooled system
Oil Change Interval:
Typically every 7,500 km or 6 months, whichever comes first. Specific recommendations will be in the manual.
Timing Belt Replacement:
For V6 engines, timing belt replacement is critical, typically around 90,000 km or 5 years. Failure to do so can cause catastrophic engine damage.
Engine Oil:
API SG or higher, SAE 10W-30 or 10W-40 recommended. Consult manual for specific viscosity based on climate.
Coolant:
Ethylene glycol based antifreeze. Mitsubishi recommends their specific coolant or equivalent. 50/50 mix with distilled water.
Automatic Transmission Fluid:
Mitsubishi SP-II or SP-III (check manual for exact specification for this era). Dexron II/III might be an alternative but factory spec is preferred.
Brake Fluid:
DOT 3 or DOT 4 brake fluid
Engine Issues:
Timing belt failure (if not replaced at intervals), potential head gasket issues on some V6 engines, intake manifold gasket leaks.
Transmission Issues:
Automatic transmission solenoid failure, worn torque converter lock-up clutch.
Suspension Issues:
Worn control arm bushings, strut mount failure, premature ball joint wear.
Electrical Issues:
Corrosion in wiring harnesses, failure of body control modules or power window regulators.
