Mitsubishi Outlander (Sport), CU0W (EU)

Manual transmission fluid capacity & service interval

Mitsubishi Outlander (Sport), CU0W (EU) manual transmission fluid capacity ranges from 2,2 to 2,8 liters. Service intervals include checking every 15000 km or 12 months and changing every 45000 km or 12 months. The data covers 4 configurations.

The configuration chart below lists fill volumes and service intervals for each engine and trim variant.

Additional Notes

  • The Mitsubishi Outlander (Sport) CU0W manual transaxle fluid capacity across all listed configurations starts at a base figure of 2.2 liters, which represents the standard service fill volume for the transmission housing.
  • The 2WD and naturally aspirated 4WD variants sharing the 2.0 16V engine both carry a 4WD transaxle capacity of 2.3 liters, reflecting the additional fluid volume required to service the transfer and differential components in the drivetrain.
  • The 2.0 Turbo 4WD variant departs from the 2.3-liter 4WD figure seen on the naturally aspirated 4WD, instead specifying a notably higher 2.8-liter capacity for the 4WD transaxle, indicating a larger or differently configured drivetrain assembly in the turbocharged application.
  • The 2.4 16V configuration lists only the base 2.2-liter capacity with no separate 4WD figure, meaning no additional drivetrain fluid volume is specified for manual transaxle service on that engine variant.
  • All four configurations share an identical check interval of 15,000 km or 12 months under normal use conditions, whichever comes first, establishing a consistent inspection cadence across the model range for 2003-2009.
  • The fluid change interval across all listed configurations is set at 45,000 km or 12 months under normal use conditions, meaning the time-based threshold of 12 months can trigger a change well before the distance figure is reached in lower-mileage usage patterns.
  • The check interval of 15,000 km sits at exactly one-third of the 45,000 km change interval, meaning a fluid level inspection is due three times within each full change cycle under normal operating conditions.
