Gday from Australia! We have a 2016 model but we call the a ASX over here, im just doing the 165,000km service on my wifes car now an see that its due for a CVT service next time round (180,000km) and though id research what id need before i attempt this in a few months! Why does the Australian model not have the engine mounts in the same place? That has me curious.... Thankyou for this awesome video it was incredibly helpful! P.s a fuel filter replacement video would be very helpful 😂 Cheers mate!
Good evening from the USA! Thanks for the comment and thanks for watching! I really enjoy talking to people from across the world, I wouldn’t be to worried about it, it’s pretty easy to do. I’m not sure why they changed the design, I just know before I did mine I researched it and all the service manuals were showing the non American cars didn’t have that stupid mount in the way. The plus side is yours should be super easy compared to mine lol. 😂 if I ever work on this car again I for sure will! I was gonna do a transmission on it but the owner couldn’t afford it so we’ll see if I ever get to it again lol. Have a wonderful day or night!
@@T-MillProductions thanks again mate! Keep up the good work. Your content is super easy to digest, haha I've found myself watching some of your videos on cars we can't even get here 🤣
You’re welcome my friend! I really appreciate that! I try to make content that people enjoy watching lol. Some day I wanna go to Australia and see all the wildlife that we don’t have up here. Your country looks beautiful!
I have a 2017 sport ES with 103 k miles idk if it’s ever been changed before but was thinking about doing it. Would you recommend? And what is the torque specs on that filter? Is that filter the same size as the 2017 outlander?
I would flush that transmission as soon as possible and hope to lasts. These transmissions need the fluid changed every 36000 to 55000 miles. I would definitely do filters too. The torque spec I’m not sure on. I just used a 1/4 inch ratchet and tighten them down. And I’m not entirely sure if the years are the same or not. But if you call a Mitsubishi dealer they can tell you
Is the only way to get the engine mount bracket off to lift the engine from the top using the Harbor Freight thing? Or is that just to hold the engine in place so the bracket can be removed? Wondering if the engine can be held or lifted slightly from underneath using a jack? Really want to do this myself, but while I have done many things on my cars, engine mounts are something I have never played with so I don't have any specialized tools. Thanks for the video. I really think engineers that build things like this that require a motor mount to be removed to get to a filter need to be kicked in the nuts.... hard.
It’s such a stupid design on these American cars. The ones in Australia and Europe don’t have this motor mount in the way. The engine leveler I am using is just to hold the engine in place while I remove the motor mount. It’s really not a hard job but just make sure you take your time and don’t rush thru it and make a mistake. I wire wheeled all the bolts when I got them out and antisiezed them all because they were pretty rusty. And I agree, the engineer who did this is an idiot!
@@T-MillProductions Thank you for the reply. Luckily this is a "desert car" (phoenix and Vegas) so there is no rust anywhere. Going to wait for cooler weather (110 degrees under a car isn't fun) but your video was wonderful. Thank you!
@davehigh6431 aw man you’re so lucky lol, all we have in WI is rust everywhere from all that salt and snow. Granted we don’t have that kind of heat either tho. Tomorrow is gonna be a high of 70 out and a low of 49 lol
Yes it can, I did the transmission flush in my garage and now I’ll be doing a transmission replacement in this car pretty soon. I’ll be making a video on it as well step by step. So make sure to stay tuned for that!

how many litters of cvt fluid u use?
I used 5 quarts
Hello, for the bottom transmission pan. Did you use a new gasket? Or silicone rtv?
I used a gasket, for some reason it’s sold seperate from the filters.
@@T-MillProductions Thank You Very much
You’re welcome!
Would you recommend the fram oil fluid
I can’t really say yes or no to that, I just got this because no one else had anything else
CN it be done at home mine has started to whine, and I'm sure that's what it it is
Yes it can, I did the transmission flush in my garage and now I’ll be doing a transmission replacement in this car pretty soon. I’ll be making a video on it as well step by step. So make sure to stay tuned for that!
@@T-MillProductions will be waiting for it patiently, I hope you do it soon
I will be, I have it here with the new tranny so hopefully I’ll start it this weekend
What was it doing?
It would just flare up and barely move
Part 2?
Part 2 will be a transmission replacement. I have the car here I just have to start working on it
