Additional Notes
- The Mitsubishi Lancer (USA/CAN) power steering system capacity varies between 0.6 and 1.2 liters depending on the configuration and model year.
- The 2.0 and 2.4 engines in the 2002-2007 generation share a 1.2-liter power steering system capacity, the largest figure across all listed configurations.
- The Lancer Sportback 2.4 (2002-2007) carries a notably smaller 0.6-liter power steering capacity, half that of the standard 2.4 from the same generation.
- From the 2007-2017 2.0 and the 2012-2017 2.4 configurations onward, the power steering capacity is listed at 1.0 liter, a reduction from the 1.2-liter figure seen in the earlier 2002-2007 2.0 and 2.4 variants.
- The 2.4 engine in 2WD and 4WD configurations for 2012-2017 carries identical 1.0-liter power steering capacities, indicating the drivetrain layout does not affect the power steering system volume in these variants.
- All listed configurations share a uniform service interval of every 30,000 miles or 24 months under normal use conditions, applied consistently across both engine displacements and all covered model years.
- The service interval is expressed as a fluid check rather than a fluid replacement, meaning the 30,000-mile/24-month figure marks an inspection point for the power steering system.
