Just curious what brand fluid did you use ?

I went with ​Red Line Synthetic Gear Oil MT-85 GL-4 75W-85 GL-4 1 Quart | RL 50504 I saw some people on the forums recommending it and it was readily available for me @@Defiantsynthetics

Just curious what brand fluid did you use ?

I'm not sure about the other years. I would do a change every year.

I've been doing drain and fills on this cvt since I bought it new. I was using factory mitsubishi CVTF-J4 fluid but have switched to Amsoil for the last few years , it has 90k miles and shifts nice and smooth, no issues. Preventative maintenance is the key to keeping any vehicle running its best.

@@Defiantsynthetics Mine has 210 000km which makes around 130k miles and works fine. I change the fluid around 30 000km intervals. The reason I was asking is that I was thinking about changing the fuild to Amsoil since they seem to have the absolute best products.

I agree , all they do is hold in heat 🔥 and cook electronic components ... But they make a nice home for rodents. 🐀

People don't like the sound of the injectors

Sure

I mailed out the sample today.

Could be a leak causing a low charge which could cycle the compressor like that . You can try a UV light and look for leaks assuming that your system has the UV dye in it

you need to sent it in for a service, there is no other fix and it's highly likely that a replacement will have the same issue.

Yes , it did

@@Defiantsyntheticsgood for engine as well 😉👍

Why not? Preventative maintenance , these phev have fuel dilution , amsoil upper cylinder lubricant coats the piston rings and helps prevent fuel washing down the cylinder walls past the rings into the oil.

I believe in over maintaining my vehicles transmissions and engines never failed because of too many fluid changes that's just my personal opinion could you go longer I'm sure you could but I drive 100 miles a day to work and back and I want to keep the car for a very long time so I change all the fluids once a year with the exception of engine oil which I do every 3,000 miles if you look at my other videos I do have a fluid analysis on stock Factory Mitsubishi fluid that had signs of dirt in it from Fresh open bottle that's what made me switch to Amsoil which is a higher quality fluids

@@Defiantsynthetics Yea, I got your point. I am planing to keep it as long as possible as well. Was just curious of used CVT and ATF condition.

If its not in the manual for the drain and fill then don't touch it. There are many bolts and plugs that "look" like drain plugs but are not, removing the wrong bolt could release something internal that will require disassembly to repair so tripple check your bolts. And use torque specs , this is an aluminum housing which is very easy to crack if you over tighten.

Glad it helped!

About 2 or 3 quarts , you fill until it comes out of the fill hole as a thin steady stream. Watch my other videos for more info

Book says 2.30 Qts or 2.17 L , I just add until it comes out of the level plug as shown in the video. Factory fluid is Mitsubishi CVT J4

ruclips.net/video/n6vqIYadzCI/видео.htmlsi=jwpjaPsB0Fm9vxxV

I just made a video for you.

Sadly newer generation of outlander has the same not charging not/not turning on issue. It is even a little more problematic as the BMS would simply avoid letting any current in or out if it is too cold. This happens at around -30C.

What a prick. Sure, everyone one says, hey, I need to plug my phone into a switch.

So a little background on me , I'm currently an automotive instructor for a college , I have Ford training and was a Ford tech for 5 years and teaching automotive for over 10 years. That being said I'd do the following : Engine Oil every 3000 miles , I don't care what the book says about going longer. Front Transaxle Fluid , rear transaxle fluid and generator fluid every year, coolant every other year and clean the coolant filter. Brake fluid every 2 years, I use a Amsoil for everything including upper cylinder lubricant from amsoil every fill up because these vehicles are susceptible to fuel dilution of the oil into the start stop feature of the engine.

Thanks for the info. Much appreciated! @@Defiantsynthetics

Start by checking the easy stuff first like the fuses, all of them in and outside of the car.

The Amsoil is great still! No issues, Amsoil website doesn't list their CVT fluid as a suggestion for this application but it meets the same specs as the Mitsubishi CVT fluid so I decided to run it and I've had no issues. www.amsoil.com/offers/pc/?zo=5141811&_gl=1*1o7nw32*_gcl_aw*R0NMLjE3MDE4MzI0MDUuQ2owS0NRaUFzYnVyQmhDSUFSSXNBRXhtc3U3NkNkUU5ua2NER2ZOeUFmbXpkX0NtQkVfRFYtTHhhUERFbFhoTmF2OGV4aW9YcTI1OE1UWWFBanV2RUFMd193Y0I.*_gcl_au*Mjc2OTk0ODgxLjE2OTgyODMyNTU.*_ga*MTI2ODE1MDI5LjE2NzM5MDUwNTI.*_ga_E8P3KK8JV8*MTcwMTgzMjQwNC43Ny4xLjE3MDE4MzI0MzUuNDUuMC4w*_fplc*WDlhdG0lMkJnaFJSUjZLS1IlMkJBSXhIVllHUXZSRjklMkJaVFFXTTFieFQwcVZaNU8zYVY3RXV1T0QyV3Q4YmNVZDJSRDltZlNvTkZSaVo3ekZxc3Fjaml3RncxTlFkZiUyRkh5N0VWeVNJT0lBVk5aS3NPYmJtT1MlMkZXajFMakJ4bXhzdyUzRCUzRA..*_ga_5DWFCBC0LE*MTcwMTgzMjQwNC43Ny4xLjE3MDE4MzI0MzUuNDUuMC4w&_ga=2.34977506.2116029844.1701744531-126815029.1673905052&_gac=1.60201311.1701832405.Cj0KCQiAsburBhCIARIsAExmsu76CdQNnkcDGfNyAfmzd_CmBE_DV-LxaPDElXhNav8exioXq258MTYaAjuvEALw_wcB

Thanks for the reply! Have you found a service manual for the 2018 Phev in your research? I would love to get my hands on one.

Awesome , I like to make simple to the point videos to help people , not the typical wait 10min until they get to the point videos , no one has time for that.

No, that was the generator/electric motor.

1 speed Front F1EKA Total Fill 3.7 quarts. I use www.amsoil.com/p/signature-series-multi-vehicle-synthetic-automatic-transmission-fluid-atf/?code=ATFPK-EA?zo=5141811 1 speed Rear F1E1A Total Fill 1 quarts. I use www.amsoil.com/p/signature-series-multi-vehicle-synthetic-automatic-transmission-fluid-atf/?code=ATFPK-EA?zo=5141811

The front electric motor / generator takes Mitsubishi CVT J4 but I used this www.amsoil.com/p/synthetic-cvt-fluid-cvt/?zo=5141811

Believe it or not it was the brand new brake pads from AutoZone I got a replacement set and they fit in perfectly they were not machined correctly and they were too loose.

I had this same issue and it was the brake pads they were too small not enough for most people to notice maybe but when I lifted jt up kept look then noticed they slide up and down quite a bit 🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️🤦🏽‍♂️

20 years!!!? LOL 😂 message me back in 20 years to let me know how that turned out for you.

@@Defiantsynthetics I asked if you are changing the front electric motor coolant not the front transaxle fluid, these are different.

Yes, even easier ! Simple drain and fill but that's transmission fluid , I use Amsoil .

Front and rear transaxle is Mitsubishi SP-III transmission fluid , if you look through some of my other videos will see I did and oil analysis and the factory fluid right out of the bottle had debris in it this is one of the reasons why I switched all the fluids over to Amsoil.

ruclips.net/user/shorts5TSDXOETqoM?feature=share

Awesome vid of the oil analysis, I will definitely switch over as well. If you ever able to make a video of the simple drain/fill of front & rear transaxial that would be great. Cannot find any videos on it since these vehicles are not that popular.

I will make one the next time it's due for changing.

I change it once a year , just a drain and fill, there is a filter screen on the drain plug that I've never seen dirty so reusable . If you have to replace her just want to it's $65 for Mitsubishi.

Have you change any other fluid? in the vehicle besides regular ice engine oil change, transaxles front and back,. Thank you for the vid 🙌🏼

​@@seanmaru3270check out my other vids, I do the ICE oil change every 3000 miles , front and rear differential every year , generator every year and drain and fill coolants every year.

Is the coolant just drain and fill? I know the coolant is where it gets its heating too right?

Sorry I had a medical issue I've been dealing with I'll make a video right now for you

@@Defiantsynthetics all good I got there in the end. Hope you’re doing ok on the medical front. For others the whole piece slides across and down from memory. Was quite easy and less complicated than I was originally trying to make it 😂
