Enhance Mitsubishi Lancer Performance with a Tune-Up

Is it time for an engine tune-up? If you're the type of driver who waits for something to go wrong with your vehicle, it might be time to change your ways, especially if you drive a 2006 Mitsubishi Lancer. Routine engine tune-ups can bring power back to your Lancer. Tune-ups give your engine a boost in efficiency, which can mean better fuel economy (a win for you) and lower emissions (a win for the environment). When you take your car for regular engine tune-ups as recommended by Mitsubishi, you can rest assured you’re investing in your Lancer’s long-term engine performance.

Routine Engine Tune-Up Service for Your Mitsubishi Lancer

Your local Firestone Complete Auto Care offers a range of engine tune-up services for your 2006 Mitsubishi Lancer. The first is the standard Firestone Tune-Up. It includes a complete visual inspection of engine components, installation of new spark plugs, and a lifetime warranty on parts*. The second service focuses on your Lancer's filters, specifically replacing the air filter and fuel filter. Our third service is a thorough cleaning of the fuel system. During this type of tune-up, we use a three-step process to get rid of harmful varnish, dirt, and carbon deposit buildup in your Lancer’s fuel injectors, throttle body, and throttle plate. This goes a long way in boosting your fuel system’s overall performance. Here’s something to remember when choosing services: the mileage and service history of your Lancer can determine what kind of service it needs. A one-size-fits-all engine tune-up procedure doesn’t necessarily exist. Talk to a technician about your driving style, mileage, and service history to learn more about your vehicle's specific needs.

2006 Mitsubishi Lancer Engine Tune-Up Q&A

  • When should Mitsubishi Lancer spark plugs be replaced? Replace spark plugs on time or about every 30,000 miles or so. Without the spark of electricity created by spark plugs, your engine doesn’t have the combustion it needs to start — which could leave you stranded on the road. Always replace your spark plugs on time based on Mitsubishi’s recommendations.
  • What should I do if I see leaks under my Lancer? Don't ignore puddles of fluid under your Mitsubishi Lancer. It could signal a coolant leak, brake fluid leak, or an oil leak. Let any one of these leaks linger and it could cause engine damage.
  • Are some driving habits better for my Mitsubishi Lancer engine than others? Hard starts and stops put extra wear and tear on engine components. Smooth, gradual starts and stops, on the other hand, are a great way to help your engine run better. They can also help maximize your fuel economy.
  • Where can I get a Mitsubishi Lancer tune-up? At your nearby Firestone Complete Auto Care! Whether you need Mitsubishi Lancer service, maintenance, or repairs, our technicians can get the job done.
  • How often should I clean my Mitsubishi Lancer fuel injectors? The frequency at which car fuel injectors should be cleaned can vary depending on several factors, including the type of fuel used and the driving conditions. Some manufacturers generally recommend a fuel system cleaning as part of your general car maintenance, or as needed based on symptoms of poor fuel system performance.
