Additional Notes
- The Mitsubishi Space Star (EU) cooling system holds 6 liters across all four engine variants covered in the 1998-2006 generation, spanning the 1.3, 1.6, 1.8 GDi, and 1.9 DI-D configurations.
- A 6-liter coolant capacity is a moderate figure for a compact multi-purpose vehicle, consistent with a fully filled cooling circuit that includes the engine block, cylinder head passages, radiator, and heater core.
- The check interval for all four variants is set at 30,000 km or 24 months under normal use conditions, whichever comes first, meaning the coolant level and condition are to be inspected roughly every two years or every 30,000 km of driving.
- The change interval is set at 60,000 km or 48 months under normal use conditions, placing a full coolant drain and refill on a four-year or 60,000 km cycle for all listed engine types.
- The check interval is exactly half the change interval in both distance and time terms, meaning two inspection points occur within each full change cycle, allowing condition monitoring before a full replacement is due.
- The 1.8 GDi variant covers the 1998-2002 period, while the 1.9 DI-D covers 2001-2006, meaning both engines were available concurrently during 2001-2002, yet both share the same 6-liter capacity and identical service intervals.
- The 1.6 entered the lineup in 2002, while the 1.3 spans the full 1998-2006 range, yet no difference in coolant capacity or service intervals exists between the two petrol engines despite the difference in displacement.
- All four engine variants, including the diesel 1.9 DI-D, carry the same 6-liter capacity figure, indicating no distinction is made between petrol and diesel cooling circuit volumes in the Space Star specifications for this generation.
