Additional Notes

  • The Mitsubishi Lancer CS0 (EU) 1.3 16V and 1.6 16V share an identical cooling system capacity of 5 liters, while the 2.0 16V requires 7 liters, a 40% increase that reflects the greater coolant volume demanded by the larger displacement engine.
  • All three engine variants follow the same check interval of 30,000 km or 24 months under normal use conditions, meaning the cooling system is inspected on a two-year or distance-based cycle, whichever comes first.
  • The coolant change interval across all listed configurations is 60,000 km or 48 months under normal use, placing the full replacement cycle at four years or double the check interval in distance terms.
  • The 1.3 16V and 1.6 16V variants share not only the same 5-liter capacity but also identical check and change intervals, indicating no differentiation in cooling service schedules between those two engine sizes within the 2003-2009 production span.
  • The 2.0 16V extends into the 2010 model year, one year beyond the 2003-2009 range of the 1.3 and 1.6 variants, while retaining the same 30,000 km/24-month check and 60,000 km/48-month change intervals.
