Tools needed: 10mm hex, 24mm wrench, and pump. Manual calls for GL-5 80 weight oil. I used a multi-viscosity oil since I live in a colder climate. The entire job takes less than 10 minutes. I wound up using just over a quart for the front and rear so I'd suggest buying two bottles just in case.
Front differential video: • How to change front tr...
Thank you for the videos Rear and Front. Save me a lot of money. 30 months ago, I had paid 252 CAD at Mitsubishi dealership Labor: Front and Rear differential fluid change > 138 CAD Parts: MZ320350 Hypoid Gear Oil API GL-5 SAE 80 > 38 CAD x 3 bottles. Today, with these videos, I have spent only 41 CAD for a quart of MZ320350 on both front and rear! Why was the dealer used 3 bottles? And I have found the front filler plug is loose. Oil leak! Did a dealer mechanic does a good job? Of course, I had bought a 24mm wrench (10 CAD), a 10mm hex bit socket (4 CAD), and a pump (14 CAD) but still save a lot of money in the long run! Thanks a bunch!
Dealers are the biggest scamers out there. I used to work for one when I was younger. I couldn't believe how many scams they pulled on unsuspecting customers. They think that everyone that comes in the door is stupid. And it's not that people are, it's just that people think that the dealer is truly there to help them. Not the case at all.
Canadians dealers mafia scammers
Very much helped, mine is an '07 Endeavor but I'm sure the set up is super similar. Ty
Thank you!! help me a lot for to make the job for my endeavor.
Great video ! I'd justbadd that you should first thoroughly clean aroun both plugs so as not to introduice any contaminant in the process.
Thank you , my outlander needed .
Good video, no 3 minute intro, just the job. Thanks.
Can't get enough of them 3 minute pointless intros.
thanks for vid I need change in my ASX 👍
Thanks, I wasn't sure which one was to fill, that bolt is big, I it to buy a wrench that size cause is not in a standard set
Thanks!
Thanks brother
Thanks
So it only needs half a quart to fill it up? Thanks!
The eclipse cross is the same differential? And transfer case?
does the drain plug have two washers?
Same fluid for both front and rear?
,感谢分享
Great video brother. What year is your outlander? I have a 2016 SAWD I'm sure it the same thing.
Mine was a 2016 but it was totalled by a windstorm a year ago. I loved it while I had it!
@@pasta-eo5mt wow man that's crazy. Hope you weren't badly injured or anyone else. Yeah I just hate the crappy radio I'm gonna buy a nice after makert touch screen with a back up camera.
Very helpful, thank you. Do you happen to know what torque specs are for the drain and fill plugs, for both the rear differential and the front transfer?
Sorry I don't know the torque specs. I just snug them up by feel.
32 Nm or 24 ft-lb for the 2009 Outlander
For everybody who is just reading this. Front transaxle drain plug 35nm +/- 2. The other 3 plugs (filler/drainplugs) 32nm +/- 2
Thank you !
any idea on how much torque should be used on these two nuts?
32Nm or 24ft-lbs for the 2009 Outlander
I'm in the process of learning basics like this. Whats the benefit/ need/ frequency to change the fluid?
Mitsubishi only specifies that it should be checked every 24 months or 30,000 miles. It's an easy and inexpensive job; since I use my AWD somewhat frequently, I did it at around 3 years and 30,000 miles. Probably sooner than I needed to.
For the outlander phev from modelyear 2012 Mitsubishi says it's lifetime.... so it doesn't need to be replaced. If you tow on regular bases I would definitely replace at 100k km's
Thanks but you know what even better come an change my on ride
Looking at getting a 2019 SEL S-SWD. I can pick them up all day for 15k with 35k miles. The pros and cons of this vehicle would be awesome. Other choice is a 2014 SL Rogue for 13500. Not sure what to pick.
Sorry just saw this. Did you pick one?
@@pasta-eo5mt I bought a 2016 Se with S-AWC and Heated seats. I didn't want the leather in MO. To damn hot but I am pleased with it so far. I drive 8k-10k year. now working from home it is a lot less. Looking to take it on some dirt trails in AZ next July. Nothing crazy because it only has 8.4ins ground clearance but still amazing for what this is.
@@BradZink Great! I hope you enjoy it and got a great deal. ☺
I believe that the manual says its ~1liter in the front and ~4liter in the back, i wonder how and why you only used 0,5liter on the rear 0_o
I'd suggest checking the manual again. It must be 0.4 liters because there's no way a Mitsubishi Outlander could hold 4 liters. That's more than a typical half ton pickup.
@@pasta-eo5mt might be different in a phev then, because in my phev's owner's manual there is front ~1l and rear ~4l
How frequently does one need to do this? How many miles?
From memory, I think mitsubishi recommends it at 100,000 miles. I'd suggest more frequently if you drive in snow since the AWD system is getting more use. I did mine at 40k.
@@pasta-eo5mt On my 2017 Outlander Sport the maintenance manual stays every 30,000 miles. Not inspect but replace....also the transfer case. Mine is an actual 4 wheel drive system and not AWD.
My dealer put it on my inspection report on my 2020 at 40,000kms as “needs attention”. I think that’s about 24,000 miles. Quote is about $270 for front and rear. I declined because I am alive to the fact that dealers like to recommend services far before the service manual recommends. I asked though, “How do you determine it needs to be changed? Do you take a sample or is this provided in the service manual?” The Service Advisor didn’t hesitate: “yes for sure, we take a sample.” Didn’t even need to ask apparently. 🤔 I was an auto tech previously. I’ve got nothing better to do with my time so I plan to just swap the fluids myself and see what the report says next time. If it’s not there, I suppose I’ll eat crow. On the other hand, I highly doubt the service advisor knew that. Thanks for the video! I went looking because I wanted to see how buried the plugs would be. Saved me jacking up to figure out what tools I need. 👍
What sae level this oil is and what api specs like gl3 or gl4
Details and specifications are in the video description.
@@pasta-eo5mt thank you. I could find straight sae 80 oil. As it says on the cars manual. I searched a lot but It always shows me sae 80w 90, 75w 80 etc etc. But couldn't find straight 80. Can I use 80w 90. For rear diff
@@LOVEPREETSINGH-lk7el You can use a multi weight oil. I believe I used 75w-90 (its been a while since I did this job). If that's not available, 80w-90 would work too.
Was that hypoid gear oil or limited slip. Can we use one at others place like instead hypoid oil can I use limited slip or vice versa. I have mitsubishi rvr 2012
@@LOVEPREETSINGH-lk7el As far as I know, the RVR/Outlander were never offered with a limited slip differential. I could be wrong. Either way, there's no harm in using an oil with a friction modifier for non-limited slip differentials. If you're not sure if you have a limited slip differential, use an oil with friction modifiers since it won't hurt anything if you don't.
Was that a 2015 outlander
2016 but they're the same.
