In most models your car will let you know you need a service when you're getting close to the maximum amount of kilometres. You may also notice things like:

  • Dark or dirty oil - fresh oil should be golden and translucent
  • Smoke coming from your Mitsubishi’s exhaust
  • A burning smell coming from the engine
  • Low oil levels
  • Unusual noises from under the bonnet
  • The check oil light is on
  • Rough idling
  • Increased fuel consumption

How much oil is needed in a Mitsubishi?

The amount of oil your Mitsubishi needs will vary based on the year, make and model. As a general rule, you can expect to use between three and seven and a half litres. However, all mycar services include up to eight litres of premium oil, so you don't really have to worry about how much your car needs.

How often do you change oil in a Mitsubishi?

Most Mitsubishi vehicles recommend servicing every 5,000 km to 10,000 km or every three to six months. Your driving habits and the conditions your car faces on a daily basis like extreme temperatures, towing heavy loads, or doing a lot of stop-start driving will impact this. We recommend sticking to the shorter timeframe outlined in your owner's manual. If you’ve got any questions, there’s always a mycar mechanic nearby to help you figure out what’s needed for your Mitsubishi.

What is the best engine oil for Mitsubishi cars?

So what oil does Mitsubishi use? For best performance and optimal results, the recommended Mitsubishi oil type is a 5w30, fully synthetic oil. This can vary based on the model and age of your vehicle, but your mycar servicing specialist will be able to assist in answering any questions you may have.
