Mitsubishi Cordia (EU)

Coolant capacity & service interval

Mitsubishi Cordia (EU) coolant capacity ranges from 6 to 7 liters. Service intervals occur every 20000 km or 24 months. The data covers 2 configurations.

The configuration chart below lists fill volumes and service intervals for each engine and trim variant.

TypeSpecifications
Cordia 1.6 (1982-1988)
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 6 liter
  • Change 20000 km/ 24 months
Cordia 1.6 Turbo (1982-1988)
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 7 liter
  • Change 20000 km/ 24 months

Additional Notes

  • The Mitsubishi Cordia (EU) 1.6 carries a coolant capacity of 6 liters, which represents the total volume of the cooling system including the radiator, engine block passages, and reservoir.
  • The 1.6 Turbo variant holds 7 liters of coolant, one liter more than the naturally aspirated 1.6, a difference that reflects the additional thermal load generated by forced induction and the extra cooling circuit components associated with a turbocharged engine.
  • Both the 1.6 and 1.6 Turbo share an identical coolant change interval of 20,000 km or 24 months under normal use conditions, whichever comes first.
  • The 24-month time limit on the coolant change interval exists because coolant additives, particularly corrosion inhibitors and antifreeze stabilizers, degrade over time regardless of mileage accumulated.
  • The normal use condition tied to the 20,000 km / 24-month interval applies across both engine configurations for the full 1982-1988 production span covered in the specifications.
