Re: 2009 Lancer Auto Tramsmission Fluid Change

Re: 2009 Lancer Auto Tramsmission Fluid Change

Thanks Mooman. My manual says "As required" under the quantity column. I am trying to find out the actual amount required in order to see if I need 1x4litres or 2x4litres containers, in view of the price involved, before removing the old oil. I prefer to stick to Mitsubishi product if poss...

2009 Lancer Auto Tramsmission Fluid Change

Hi all, I am new to this forum with a 2009 Lancer VR. The car is mainly driven by my wife and has travelled only 62,000km. I believe the auto transmission (CVT) fluid requires changing at recommended 7years or 105,000km, mainly due to age rather than distance travelled. I can change the fluid myself...
