Additional Notes

  • Across all three engine variants of the Mitsubishi Lancer CS0 (EU), the power steering system holds a capacity of 1 liter, which is a typical figure for a passenger car hydraulic rack-and-pinion or recirculating ball steering system.
  • The 1.3 16V and 1.6 16V variants share an identical specification profile, with a 1-liter capacity and a check interval of 15,000 km or 12 months under normal use conditions.
  • The 2.0 16V variant carries the same 1-liter capacity and 15,000 km/12-month check interval as the smaller-displacement engines, indicating no capacity difference tied to engine size within the CS0 lineup.
  • The check interval of 15,000 km or 12 months, whichever comes first, applies under normal use conditions across all three engine configurations, meaning the interval is not adjusted for more demanding driving scenarios within the listed specifications.
  • The 1-liter figure represents a service-level capacity, referring to the fluid volume held within the reservoir and system rather than a full overhaul or flush quantity, which would typically be higher due to line and rack volume.
  • The 1.3 16V and 1.6 16V variants cover model years 2003-2009, while the 2.0 16V extends through 2010, making the 2.0 16V the only configuration with a specification entry beyond 2009.
