Engine Options:
Likely includes Mitsubishi's 6A1 series V6 engines (e.g., 6A12, 6A13) and potentially 4-cylinder variants depending on the specific Magna/Verada/Sigma variant. The V3000 designation strongly suggests a V6 engine, most commonly the 3.0L 6A13.
Horsepower Torque:
Specific figures vary by engine and year, but 6A12 (2.5L V6) typically produced around 170-180 hp, and 6A13 (3.0L V6) around 190-210 hp. Torque figures would be commensurate with displacement and tuning.
Fuel Delivery:
Electronic Fuel Injection (EFI)
Ignition System:
Distributorless Ignition System (DIS) or Distributor type ignition, depending on exact engine variant. Likely managed by an ECU (Engine Control Unit).
Transmission Type:
Likely an automatic transmission for most Magna Verada Sigma V3000 models. Specific transmission model numbers would be detailed in the manual (e.g., F4A51, W4A51).
Manual Transmission:
Manual transmissions may have been available on some variants, though less common for higher trims like Verada/Sigma.
Shift Modes:
Sport/Normal modes may be present on automatic transmissions.
Ancap Rating:
ANCAP ratings for this generation vary, typically around 3-4 stars for frontal impact. Specific year and model variants would need to be checked.
Braking Systems:
Anti-lock Braking System (ABS) standard on most higher trim models. Electronic Brakeforce Distribution (EBD) may be present.
Airbags:
Driver and front passenger airbags standard. Side airbags may be optional on some higher-spec models.
Oil Change Interval:
Typically 7,500 km or 6 months, whichever comes first, using API SJ/SL rated oil. Check manual for specific oil viscosity grade (e.g., 10W-30, 5W-30).
Timing Belt Replacement:
For 6A1 series V6 engines, timing belt replacement is critical, usually recommended around 100,000 km or 5 years. Failure can lead to severe engine damage.
Engine Oil Capacity:
Approximately 4.0 - 4.5 litres for V6 engines with filter change. Specifics in manual.
Coolant Type:
Ethylene glycol based coolant, typically a 50/50 mix with distilled water. Check for Mopar or equivalent specified coolant type.
Transmission Fluid Type:
Dexron III or equivalent ATF (Automatic Transmission Fluid). Check manual for precise specification.
Common Failures:
Possible issues include worn suspension components (bushings, ball joints), minor oil leaks from rocker cover gaskets, and potential transmission issues in higher mileage vehicles. Some models may experience minor electrical gremlins related to body control modules or door lock actuators.
Paint Delamination:
Certain colour codes may be prone to clear coat failure or paint delamination over time, particularly on horizontal surfaces exposed to UV radiation.
Mitsubishi Heritage:
Mitsubishi has a long history in automotive manufacturing, known for producing reliable and technologically advanced vehicles, particularly in the mid-size sedan segment.
Magna Lineage:
The Magna platform, developed in Australia, evolved through several generations. The TH/TJ/TL/TW series (following the TP) saw significant updates, with the Verada and Sigma variants representing the more luxurious and performance-oriented trims of the Magna family.
Manufacturing Location:
Primarily manufactured in Australia by Mitsubishi Motors Australia Limited (MMAL).
