Should I check my Mitsubishi Outlander motor oil level?

Motor oil lubricates important engine parts. If your oil reservoir is low or empty, engine parts can grind together, generate too much heat, and eventually lead to Mitsubishi Outlander engine failure. That’s why you should check your oil and get it changed regularly.

Can I change my Mitsubishi oil on my own?

Changing your own oil isn't as convenient as you might think. It requires special tools and old oil must be disposed of properly. Having your oil changed professionally can not only reduce the risk of something going wrong during the service, but also with your vehicle down the road.

Why is my Mitsubishi Outlander spewing blue or gray exhaust smoke?

There could be an oil leak and your engine is burning oil. Looks like it’s time for a professional to take a look. The leak could be caused by several issues like leaking valve seals, blown piston rings, or old cylinder walls.

What does it mean if my Mitsubishi Outlander oil light comes on?

The oil change light in your Mitsubishi Outlander could be triggered by an overdue oil change. However, if the oil pressure light is on, you may be dealing with low engine oil, a failing oil pump, a clogged oil filter, or a malfunctioning oil pressure sensor.

Do I need to replace my Outlander’s oil filter when changing my oil?

You should replace your Mitsubishi Outlander during each oil change. The filter captures debris and contaminants to help keep your oil clean, which means the filter gets dirty. If you skip replacing the filter, you’ll contaminate your new oil with the dirty filter.
