Additional Notes
- The Mitsubishi Montero (USA / CAN) power steering system capacity differs slightly between engine variants, with the 3.5-liter engine requiring 1.1 liters and the 3.8-liter engine requiring 1.0 liter.
- A power steering fluid capacity figure represents the total volume held within the steering rack, pump, reservoir, and connecting lines as a complete system fill.
- The 3.5-liter Montero covering 1992-2000 carries a 1.1-liter capacity, which is the larger of the two figures across the 1992-2006 span covered in the specifications.
- The 3.8-liter Montero covering 2000-2006 carries a 1.0-liter capacity, a modest reduction of 0.1 liters compared to the earlier 3.5-liter configuration.
- Both engine variants list normal as the use condition tied to the stated capacity figures, meaning the 1.1-liter and 1.0-liter values apply under standard operating conditions rather than severe-duty or special-case service.
- The year 2000 represents an overlap point in the specifications, where both the 3.5-liter and 3.8-liter configurations are listed, reflecting a model transition period during that year.
