When should I come in for Mitsubishi Outlander PHEV differential service?

Double check your owner’s manual and talk with a technician. Differential service frequency varies from car to car.

Why is my Outlander PHEV malfunction indicator light (MIL) on?

The malfunction indicator light — also known as the check engine light — on your Outlander PHEV can illuminate for a variety of reasons, including engine issues, electrical problems, damaged sensors, transmission problems, misfires, and faulty connections.

Can you clear the Outlander PHEV check engine light on your own?

While it’s sometimes possible to clear a malfunction warning light at home, it’s never recommended. If your Outlander PHEV’s check engine light comes on, it’s usually because there is a problem in one of the vehicle’s systems. You should find and address the underlying issue to help keep your vehicle in great shape. By simply resetting the check engine light, you may temporarily get rid of the light, but the underlying problem is still there. It will only be a matter of time before the light comes back.

How serious is a drivetrain malfunction in my Outlander PHEV?

Is my Outlander PHEV’s transmission part of the drivetrain?

Yes, the drivetrain system in your Outlander PHEV includes the transmission. Other components in the drivetrain are the driveshaft, axles, and differential. Together, these components deliver power from the engine to the wheels to push your Outlander PHEV forward.
