Additional Notes

  • The Mitsubishi Galant (USA / CAN) 2.4-liter engine produced from 1994-1998 carries a cooling system capacity of 7 liters, which represents the total system fill volume including the radiator, engine block passages, and reservoir.
  • The 2.4-liter configuration from 1999-2004 retains the same 7-liter cooling system capacity as the earlier 1994-1998 generation, with a normal-use change interval of 30,000 miles or 24 months.
  • For the 1999-2004 2.4-liter, an initial service interval of 60,000 miles or 48 months applies alongside the 7-liter capacity, meaning the first scheduled coolant change is extended compared to subsequent normal-use intervals.
  • The 2.4-liter engine in the 2003-2012 production range shows a capacity increase to 8 liters, up from the 7 liters specified for the 1994-2004 variants, reflecting a larger cooling system volume requirement.
  • The 2003-2012 2.4-liter configuration carries the same dual-interval structure as the 1999-2004 generation, with a normal-use interval of 30,000 miles or 24 months and an initial service interval of 60,000 miles or 48 months, both at the 8-liter capacity.
  • The 3.0-liter Galant from 1999-2004 shares the 8-liter cooling system capacity with the later 2003-2012 2.4-liter variant, despite the difference in engine displacement and production period.
  • The 3.0-liter engine from 1999-2004 follows the same dual-interval schedule seen in the 2.4-liter 1999-2004 row, with a normal-use change at 30,000 miles or 24 months and an initial service change at 60,000 miles or 48 months.
  • The 1994-1998 2.4-liter specification lists only a single normal-use interval without an initial service entry, whereas both the 1999-2004 2.4-liter and 3.0-liter configurations carry separate initial service intervals at double the normal mileage and time thresholds.
