Note: If your vehicle uses a different engine or if you’re in a region with a 2.4-liter variant, consult the owner’s manual for the exact capacity.
How to perform an oil change and fill
Follow these steps to complete the change and reach the typical capacity safely. Using the correct oil grade for your climate and vehicle is essential.
- Prepare tools, a suitable oil grade (as recommended by Mitsubishi), a new oil filter, a drain pan, and a funnel.
- Warm the engine to operating temperature, then turn it off and allow it to cool for a couple of minutes.
- Park on level ground, engage the parking brake, and place a drain pan beneath the oil sump. Remove the drain plug and let the oil drain completely.
- Remove the old oil filter, install the new filter, and lightly coat the gasket with fresh oil.
- Reinstall the drain plug and tighten to the specified torque.
- Open the hood, remove the oil fill cap, and gradually add oil until the level approaches the full mark on the dipstick (approximately 4.0 quarts / 3.8 liters).
- Replace the fill cap, start the engine, run for a few minutes, then turn off and recheck the oil level with the dipstick. Add small amounts if needed to reach the correct level.
After finishing, check for leaks and ensure the oil level is within the proper range on the dipstick before driving.
Practical notes and maintenance tips
