Mitsubishi Tredia (EU)

Coolant capacity & service interval

Mitsubishi Tredia (EU) coolant capacity ranges from 6 to 7 liters. Service intervals occur every 20000 km or 24 months. The data covers 3 configurations.

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

Tredia 1.6 Turbo (1982-1988)
  • Use: Normal
  • Capacity 7 liter
  • Change 20000 km/ 24 months

Additional Notes

  • The Mitsubishi Tredia (EU) cooling system capacity holds at 6 liters across both the 1.4 and 1.6 naturally aspirated engine variants for the 1982-1988 model years.
  • The 1.6 Turbo variant carries a 7-liter cooling system capacity, one liter more than the non-turbocharged engines, reflecting the additional thermal load a forced-induction engine places on the cooling circuit.
  • All three engine variants share an identical coolant change interval of 20,000 km or 24 months under normal use conditions, whichever comes first.
  • The 6-liter capacity listed for the 1.4 and 1.6 represents a service fill figure, meaning the volume of coolant required to refill the system during a standard maintenance change rather than a full mechanical overhaul.
  • The 24-month time limit on the coolant change interval exists because coolant additives, particularly corrosion inhibitors, degrade over time regardless of distance traveled, making calendar-based replacement relevant even for low-mileage vehicles.
