Mitsubishi X El. Some features of the MITSUBISHI Outlander of the second and third generation. Where the flash drive is hiding

the main / Repairs

The story of Mitsubishi Outlander begins since 2001, in his homeland, the crossover had a name Airtreck. To the production of second generation of SUVs, the Japanese started in 2005, the brand was named Mitsubishi Outlander. XL.

At the end of 2011, an autumn team of the third version was shown at the Geneva Motor Show, his serial release began in 2012.
Outlander in Russia is very popular, on russian market There are a lot of such cars. "Outlerands" of the second generation, Mark has proven themselves only with the greatest demand.

Mitsubishi Outlander XL 2007

Second generation japanese SUVs It was easier to pierce your way to popularity, the brand became famous thanks to Mitsubishi Outlender-1 cars. In 2007, both generations of both generations were sold on the Russian market at the same time, and in order not to confuse the brand, the XL index added in the machines later.

Mitsubishi Outlander XL is medium-sized crossoverrelating to class D to a permanent front drive on bad road The rear axle connects automatically, and then the car turns into an SUV. In Japan, this car is produced since October 2005, in Europe, outlander is sold from 2006. In Russia, the Outlander XL model basically began to be sold in 2008, but the production of the 2007 release was quite brought from abroad.

"Outlers" 2007-2009 are created on the basis of Peugeot 4007 and Citroen C-Crosser, compared with Outlander-1 in the second generation, the machine has larger sizes. In the updated version, a third row of seats appeared, and seven passengers could already be placed in the car.

The first XL cars were equipped with three types of power units:

four-cylinder gasoline 2,4 l;
6-cylinder V6 gasoline engine 3.0 l;
four-cylinder turbodiesel 2.0 l.

Mitsubishi Outlander XL 2007 crossover completes three types of gearboxes:

five-speed mechanical gearbox;
six-speed box machine;
variator.

Automobiles Outlander XL, supplied to Russia, are somewhat different from cars for the European and Japanese market, they are designed for cold climates:

they have enlarged batteries;
auto are equipped with reinforced starters and generators;
the configuration provides for heating seats;
injectors windshield Heat.

In 2007, a sports version of Mitsubishi Evolander was shown at the exhibition in Las Vegas, this crossover was equipped with a six-speed "mechanics" and a powerful 3-liter (330 liters) gasoline turbocharged. Further this model It was produced by a limited series in the United States under the Ralliart Outlander brand.

Mitsubishi Outlander XL 2008

The first changes in the model Outlander XL occurred in 2008, although officially about restyling japanese company did not declare. The following changes occurred in the updated version:

12.5 cm increased the length of the car;
2.5 cm machine became lower;
at half a centimeter, Outlander has already become;
the wheelbase has increased by 16 cm.

On the Outlander 2008 model, a new 2.2 liter turbodiel engine was installed and a capacity of 155 liters. p., This motor kindly provided Citroen-Peugeot. The new Diesel on Mitsubishi Outlander XL 2008 was primarily happy by Europeans, there were many complaints to two-liter diesel engine.

4b12 gasoline engine 2.4 liters and 170 liters. from. It is most common, it changed the "outlander" to the older version of the 2,4-liter engine 4G69. The 4-cylinder motor has the following design features:

the cylinder block is cast from aluminum;
the timing chain drive is installed;
there are four valves per cylinder;
the engine is equipped with a MIVEC timing phase change system.

The same engine is installed on Hyundai-Kia cars, they were equipped with models. Kia Sorento., Sportage, Optima, Serato, Hyundai Santa. Fe, these motors were put on the French cars - Citroen C-Crosser and Peugeot 4007.

The 4B12 motor resource is installed by the manufacturer of 250 thousand km, the condition of the power unit depends largely on operating conditions and timeliness maintenance. Complaints on the engine Mitsubishi Outlander XL 2.4 slightly, there are only a few increased flow Oils and small noise in work. Motor oil And the oil filter on the regulations is recommended to change through 15 thousand km traveled path, but if the car works with a high load, it should be replaced every 8-10 thousand km.

V-shaped gasoline "six" 6b31 with a volume of 3.0 liters has a power of 220 liters. p., DVS is equipped with a timing belt drive, replacing the belt is recommended every 90 thousand km. The valve on the motor bends when the belt is crossed by more than two teeth, all the more, they are damaged when the belt broken transmission. There are no other problems with the Mitsubishi Outlander XL 3.0 engine - the motor is very reliable, however, as 4B12 (2.4 liters).

Often, potential buyers are asked with which engine is better to acquire Outlander - 2.4 or 3.0. It depends a lot here that he wants his owner from the car - savings in fuel or good dynamics. It should be noted that the XL crossover is heavy enough, often operated on off-road and carries a lot of cargo, therefore it is preferable to buy a car with a V-shaped "six".

In 2010, the second generation of "outlanders" was restyled, according to tradition, first of all, the changes were affected by the front of the body:

the radiator grille has changed, and the car has become more like Mitsubishi Lancer;
a new front optics appeared on the car;
the front bumper has been updated.

The rear lights remained the same, they decided not to change. Restyling touched the salon:

in some basic equipment leather upholstery appeared;
performance of "Instile" and "Ultimat" cars began to be equipped with electrorals and bisenon lamps of the front headlights.

Among the technical changes Mitsubishi Outlander XL 2010, it is possible to add to the line of power units of the turbo diesel engine 4N14 with a volume of 2.2 liters and with a capacity of 170 liters. from.

At the end of 2011, at the Geneva Motor Show was presented Mitsubishi Outlander. In the third generation, and in 2012, the serial release of the car began. First of all, the car changed outwardly - the outlines of the body of the new model became more smooth, they lost the aggressiveness inherent to Outlender -2.

The new crossover is completed with three types of gasoline engines:

2.0 l;
2.4 l;
3.0 l.

Double-liter FEA is installed in the configuration "Inform" on cars with front and fully drive Wheels, the motor has a power of 147 liters. from. Engines 2.4 and V6 3.0 are equipped with all-wheel drive versions, the six-speed automatic transmission or variator is installed on all cars, the mechanical gearbox on Mitsubishi Outlander 2012 is not provided.

In 2014, "Outlender-3 has been restyled:

we updated both bumpers;
installed a new grille of the radiator;
changed rear lights.

Began to install new wheel disks R18, the insulation of the cabin was improved. Some changes touched the suspension - it became more thoughtful.

Headlights Mitsubishi Outlander XL

Characteristic problems may occur in any car, no exception is outlander. In particular, on the second generation machines, you can observe the fogging of the front and rear optics, often after washing the car inside the headlamp, condensate is formed. If on the headlights and rear lights There are no chips and cracks, dealers change optics under warranty.

Since 2010, on some cars in the headlights of Mitsubishi Outlander XL, bixenon lamps are installed, and from 2014, LEDs began to be used in optics.

Mitsubishi Outlander XL Variator

On "Outlander" can be installed different types Gearboxes, but if "mechanics" and "automatic" do not cause any complaints, then with the variator sometimes there are various problems, especially by machines until 2008. Characteristic malfunction Cars of those years is the roar of bearings in the box - it is manifested when moving rolling, if the car rolls at low speed. Also, the switching of speeds can be accompanied by shocks, faults begin to appear somewhere after 70 tons. Km mileage.

The reason for the manifestation of various defects is overheating variator Mitsubishi. Outlander XL, and if a warning lamp lights up on the instrument panel, it is necessary to stop and translate the PPC lever to the neutral position - the movement can be continued only after cooling the oil in the transmission (the lamp should go out). Overheating is most often due to contamination of the gearbox. The defect is eliminated by washing the radiator, in some cases reflash the control unit of the variator - sometimes it helps. To avoid overheating, some motorists install an additional radiator.

At the first glance at the "New Outlander XL" fans of the brand "Three Diamonds" recognize the cult appearance " Lancer Evo. X ", embodied on the" cross-version Mitsubishi "-" Outlander XL "2010-2012 model year.

It is immediately seen that this is the result of the work of marketers and designers " Mitsubishi Motors."- the result of the connection of the whole" novative "and" sold "than was rich in the model of the entire line of cars of this brand.

As a prototype for a restyled embodiment, the "Outlander XL" was served by the concept of "GT Prototype", presented by the general public at the New York International Auto Show exhibition (last 8-19 April 2009) ... Since then, many admirers "Outlander" have been waiting for the embodiment of the prototype in The serial car ... And here - in 2010 waited.

GT-Style Outlander received an updated front part of the body - it was decorated with a branded trapezoid grille "JET FIGHTER" (from Lancer EVO X), aggressive front optics, new bumpers, racing discs from OZ by 19 inches and brakes from Brembo (performed by with the most powerful strength unit) ....

SUPER ALL WHEEL CONTROL (S-AWC), which provides maximum comfort and safety on the most complex turns, regardless of the weather and on any road surface.
S-AWC system, which can be called an extraordinary without revelation of conscience, has three modes with unexpectedly simple (by analogy with home operations household appliances) Names: Tarmac, Snow and Lock (asphalt, snow and gravel).

The 3-liter engine for Mitsubishi Outlander GT Prototype SOHC MIVEC V6 has become more powerful by 10 liters. from. (Total 230 l. p.) And at the same time more economical. Economicity The engine also added the work of the new IDLE Neutral Logic technology, automatically switches to the neutral position of the gearbox after stopping the car.

The prototype salon was equipped with a new steering wheel, dashboard Sheet-skinned, and sporty pedals with curly aluminum lining. Multimedia fans pleased Fuse Handsfree Media Gateway, the Rockford Fosgate audio system and a seed navigation LCD screen ... But all these "beams" were attended by Mitsubishi Outlander GT Prototype.

Consider that the "Civil Outlander XL" inherited from the prototype and how it differs from the predecessor (model 2007-2009).

The exterior of the updated Mitsubishi Outlander XL is of course the new, with a radiator grille in the branded "Jet Fighter" and a bit rounded body forms. Updated "Outlander XL" grew a 2.5 cm long and increased ground clearance 0.5 cm., But it became easier than the previous "Outlander XL".

I would like to note that after the modernization of "Outlander XL" with mechanical box The gears was equipped with steel 16-inch discs with caps, and alloy wheels on 17 and 18 inches are attached "in the database" only to the versions with the variator (the previous "Outlander XL", by the way, in all modifications was already offered in the base version from 16 or 18 inch alloy wheels) ... It's nice that the "New XL", as before, has a full-size spare wheel.

"New Outlander XL" (Inform, Intense, Instyle), like the "past XL" (Intense, Instyle, Inspire), is designed in three main options.

And the interior of the crossover received barely noticeable changes (by the way, the leather interior is offered only at the most expensive version of the performance).

In terms of technical characteristics - only one version of the engine was offered at the start of the sales: four-cylinder 2 liter petrol Mivec with a capacity of 147 hp ( electronic system Phase control of gas distribution and lifting height), designed to use 95th gasoline. The fact that the "previous Outlander XL" was equipped with MIVEC engines for 2.4 and 3.0 liters and had, accordingly, much more power and faster accelerated to 100 km / h. The updated Mitsubishi Outlander XL accelerates to 100 km / h in 10.8 seconds (with "mechanics") or for 12.2 (with "variator"), and maximum speed - 184 and 180 km / h, respectively ... Given the aggressive appearance "New XL" - such a decision looked at least "strange."

The suspension has not changed: Front on the racks MacPherson with a stabilizer transverse stability and rear multi-dimensional, with longitudinal levers and transverse stability stabilizer. And the four-wheel drive was implemented only in the maximum configuration of the Instyle (in the rest it is only front).

Summing up, it can be said that in 2009 "Strange Chimera" came to the Russian market: a car with an aggressive (sports) appearance of the prototype "Outlander GT" and "stuffing" from the very low-power execution "Dorestayling Outlander XL" ... and even on the equipment noticeably saved.
So if efficiency is taken into account in the pleases dictated by the financial crisis and environmental requirements of fashion, then a unreasonable shift towards the "simplicity of the interior", "weak technology" and "minimum configuration" - is not very pleased.

Simply put: "Updated Outlander XL" is an exclusively marketing initiative of the company "Mitsubishi", a powerful and recognizable body in combination with running characteristics predecessor and more economical engine.

UPD. But, apparently, realizing his mistake, "Mitsubishi-Motors" still offered an option with a more powerful (2.4-liter, 170-strong) engine and "top" (3.0-liter, 223-strong) ...

"The optimal option" (170-strong) is offered only with full drive and "variator". This engine complies with the appearance of the crossover - allowing you to accelerate up to 100 km / h in 10.8 seconds (as well as 2.0-liter with "mechanics" ... a car is heavy - still one and a half times) and reaching 190 km / h (not "racing" of course But then with the "variator" at least you can already try to overtake someone on the track). Average fuel consumption for 2.4-liter at 9-10 liters per 100 km.

Well, what can certainly please in the updated Mitsubishi Outlander XL - its price. So the cost of basic (inform) configuration in 2010 is ~ 949 thousand rubles (2.0-liter engine is offered for this money, front-wheel drive and 5mcpp). Buy all-wheel drive "Outlander XL" (Intense) with a 2.4-liter engine and variator can at a price of 1 million 149 thousand rubles. Maximum complete set Mitsubishi Outlander XL Ultimate (V6 3.0-liter / 223 hp with a 6-speed "robot" and full-wheel drive) are offered at a price ~ 1,429 thousand rubles.

Bought in April 2010 in ****** (Khimki). Considered quite a lot and meticulously. In connection with modest financial capabilities, the choice fell on Mitsubishi Out, 2.0 CVT, 2WD, because Money has a little left of the sale of the previous one, but I wanted something higher, as well as cheaper. I don't go to the fish and the hunt, I don't live in the village, I try in winter more carefully ... In short, the car cost 1039 thousand, while for the four-wheel drive + ESP + leather interior must be postponed yet + 180 thousand, while not ready was. I understood what I buy. The first equipment on the "automatic" (variator). In principle, there is everything for the movement: the steering wheel, seats, a spacious salon, a variator, enough space on rear seats, huge (according to the appropriate standards) trunk, climate control, heated front seats, MP-3 music, armrest, on-board computer, Cool "Bardac", 8 pillows.

MOTOR: 2 liter "Four", 147 hp, small transport tax. I will start in order. It warms up, in principle, quickly. The first (blue) division on the scale of temperature (LCD display) "pops up" after 4-5 minutes of warming up. Full warm-up - 10 minutes. Turns "follow" for the pedal, there are no failures. The speed is gaining in accordance with this motor: not in a hurry, gradually, without straining. Riding around the city within 1300-2100 rpm. Consumption in the summer of 10.8-12 l / 100 km, winter is now more than 13-14. On the highway, cruising speed (I so call speed on the highway without tension) for this car 120-140 km / h, so the flow rate is about 10 liters. This is real without an acoustic. As it is. For 24,000 km there are no problems yet. Was at 15,000 km. Traveled to Minsk, cheaper there. They took 5,500 rubles, changed the oil, oil, air and saloon filter. In Moscow, 7800 put up 7800, in Bryansk 6500 (without replacing the salon filter). Motor quiet, in the cabin is not heard, it works smoothly. Before that, there were Mitsu, impressions are similar.

CONTROLLABILITY:Coldness of management on the "fourth". Again, everything comes in comparison. It seemed sharper on the "Germans". At the same time, no concerns delivered. In principle, experience is enough, but I understand that there are more stable on sedans. Well, "either a doodie, or a pitcher," in the sense - it is necessary to sacrifice something: either with high clearance or stability of turns.

Patency:Naturally, it is necessary to understand that the front actuator and the 2-liter Motor of the prerogative mainly passenger transport. In my opinion (personal) opinion, the outout in this configuration is simply a wagon of high passability. As there are apartments increased comfortHaving in mind, a little large area of \u200b\u200bthe kitchen and hallway. Therefore, to wait for something over-pass from him, I think it is not worth it. I in no way I do not want to remake it, but even with winter rubber Nokian HKP SUV is now in the same place buxes, the left front in the ice jam is all sticking. The conclusion made for myself simple - for the winter I will take specially Pajero Sport 2.5 D on the "Mechanics" 2005-07. And there will be no problems. Three years ago there was a Pajero Sport 3.0 automatic transmission (Impressions are good). Clearance - 215 mm. I feel. On all the kolas absolutely not clinging the bottom, because Before me, "leveled" smaller clearance, to the border "climb" is not a problem. This bribes.

BOX:Variator (CVT). The same thing is the machine, I did not feel any special differences. It is strange that on a small slope when the "Drive" is turned on, the auto rolls back after the brake pedal is released. Whether the box is defect, then it should. It will be necessary to clarify on the next one. For the first time I see that ... when moving to a box, there are no complaints.

COMFORT:Summer wheels stood 16 inches 215/70 R16 Yokogama. Something they are not very me. Although "Made in Japan". Noisyhee. In short, there are problems with Shumkov, compare with previous cars. It was possible to do something in production. Costs compared to the cost of small, and the result would be at the height. In motion, the motor is not heard, and the root from the wheels is noticeable. The climate works quietly, correctly, using the "car" - the temperature keeps, warms, as noted above, quickly. In the summer was in the Voronezh region (+ 42c), there were no problems with cooling, quite normal. Music is in order, 6 columns, the quality is satisfactory. The cooled upper glove box, it was convenient to carry water in summer, always cool. The sound alarm system of the unwrapped state of the binding belts when driving makes it fastened. Additional 2 sockets 12 V in the armrest and in the trunk.

SALON: In my opinion personal opinion and practice, as well as research, from Odnoklassniki the largest salon. In the back sofa, the place for the legs is enough, with my height 180 cm. I am freely fit "for myself." Armchairs are comfortable, with good lateral support, with seats heating (warm up quickly, have two positions "High & Low"), located on the seats themselves (especially uncomfortable, but, in principle, nothing), the rear folded in the 60/40 proportions. I have a non-automatic version, but I do not suffer, I add manually. With the seeds folded, the trunk is large, with a folding bottom of the 5th door (as in BMW X5). Convenient when loading. The salon from the fabric, do not like the armrests from incomprehensible material - quickly dumps, poorly wipes (I think the skin is practical), the fabric "collects" the whole garbage (the skin in this plan wins), although in summer the tissue of thermal conductivity is preferable, the bottom consists of some That budget loose loose carpet-syntheps, under which the foam is visible. But on the other hand, you want another - both prices, and the country's country is different ... anyway concluded, and anyone will agree, the Japanese for themselves other configurations do.

OUTPUT. My personal opinion on Mitsubishi Outlander 2.0 2WD CVT:

The car is not bad, bribes a spacious spacious interior, a large clearance, acceptable (compared to other) costs, an economical "calm" engine. I will not speak about the appearance, when choosing I did not appreciate and did not take into account, more interested in domestic qualities. From the disadvantages, we will undergo a weak motor for this model and the absence of a full drive. You will take, consider it all the same drive, if you count on the only car in the family. Otherwise, look at the winter with a reduced transmission in addition, and then leave it on the spring-and-autumn period. If you have any questions - I will be happy to help ...

MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER XL 2007-2012 GV

Second generation Outlander. It did not put great effort to become one of the leaders of the Compact crossover class. All the work on promoting the market for him was performed by the predecessor, who used stable demand in Russia. With the change of generations, the car rose in size, the wheelbase lengthened, which made it possible to place in the cabin to seven people. In the period from 2007 to 2008, both generations were sold in Russia. To not create confusion, later models Mitsubishi. Outlander assigned XL index.

At first, the crossover was offered with gasoline "four" 2.4 liters and 3-liter V6. All cars were sold with a full drive. After restyling 2010, the Motors line replenished petrol aggregate 2 l. This version has walked only with front leading wheels. In the same year, the assembly was established under Kaluga. Moreover, along with Outlander XL, its French clones came from the conveyor - Citroen C-Crosser and Peugeot 4007.

An important role in popularity Outlander XL has played quite worthy equipment. Russian dealers sold a car in several levels of complete sets: Inform, Invite, Intense, Instyle and Inspire. The basic performance of Inform with a 2.4 liter motor and a manual transmission included ABS, frontal airbags, climate control, dynamic stabilization system, CD magnetic, heated front seats, fog lights and alloy wheels. In the version of Invite, a clinoremable variator and six airbags were installed instead of "mechanics" instead of two. An Intense version with a V6 motor and a 6-speed "machine" was supplemented with an electric drive and heated mirrors, as well as a light sensor. For the instyle version, a leather interior was offered. And the top design of INSPIRE went with a hatch in the roof, xenon headlights and an advanced Rockford audio system with a CD changer.

From year to year, levels of packages and filling them change. For example, after restyling 2010, the initial version of Inform turned out to be somewhat trimmed: two airbags, ABS, radio tape recorders, climate control and electropacket. Intense was additionally installed lateral and window airbags, alloy wheels and a color display. Instyle meant a leather interior and stabilization system. And the maximum version of Ultimate is adaptive bisenon headlights, rear view camera, navigation and access system without a key.

Engine

For all the production time on Outlander XL was set gasoline motors 2.0 l (147 hp) and 2.4 l (170 hp), as well as a 3-liter V6 (220 and 230 hp). Turbodiesels of 2.0 and 2.2 liters were issued 140 and 156 hp Accordingly, two versions of 2,2-liter (156 and 177 hp) remained after restyling). We sold only gasoline modifications.

Engines 2.0 and 2.4 l are the same design. In the drive of the gas distribution mechanism, they use the so-called non-free chain. The term of its service is designed for the life expectancy of the motor, and so far there were no cases of replacement. There are no valve hydraulic components in motors - adjustment is made by selection of washers. This operation will be required only after 100 thousand km, and in fact - even later. Specialists advise periodically control the condition of the drive belt rollers auxiliary aggregates (Pump, hydraulic and generator pump). The fact is that by 60 thousand km made of plastic rollers wear out - their working surface from cylindrical over time turns into a conical or barrel-shaped. In the end, the belt slips and jumps. Fortunately, in most cases this happens without serious consequences for the engine. The replacement will cost 15,000 rubles, of which 12,000 rubles. Cost parts. Immediately alleged that the details purchased in the store will be 25-40% cheaper than the dealers. Yes, and it is more expedient to perform work on specialized hundred.

On the 3-liter V6 initially rattled the damper block inside the intake manifold with a variable length. For this occasion, the company conducted an revocation campaign. Therefore, ask the seller, whether the node changed to the updated. This makes sense because the collector assembled is some inconceivable money - something about 250,000 rubles.

All aggregates are designed for 95th gasoline. But they work perfectly well on 92nd - it is recommended to use and "officials". Motor electronics - from the discharge of superneck. Cases of oxygen sensors failure and mass flow air idle move And others are part of a part.

Transmission

A manual box under the hood of the used Outlander XL is quite rare. But it is usually no complaints. Is that after 150 thousand km of run, you will have to change the sleeves of the levers for 2200 rubles. But with the CVT variator, the production of AISN initially had problems - he twisted and worked noisily due to the depreciation of the clamping cones. The worst thing is that no one did the repair of the aggregate. The box was simply changed entirely under warranty. Moreover, first sinned on the one located separately from the main radiator, quickly clogged by the octoch and mud. After making a change in the design of the variator by mid-2008, there were no more serious complaints about it.

The automatic 6-speed hydromechanical box showed itself from the best side. And for a long and happy life, it should provide timely service with the replacement of oil through 60 thousand km.

All-wheel drive transmission Outlander XL is also reliable. Under normal conditions, the torque is transmitted only to the front wheels, and the rear are connected automatically when the front is slipped through an electronic-managed multi-volume friction clutch - by a computer signal, the powerful electromagnet compresses the springs that run in the oil bath. Moreover, the coupling can be forcibly blocking (4WD Lock mode) when you have to overcome the complex road relief. But do not confuse Outlander XL with an SUV - coupling in heavy conditions The movements very quickly overheats. In transmissions weak places almost not. Is that the suspension bearing that is wears after 100 thousand km. True, he changed with cardan shaft. Dealers have a detail worth about 80,000 rubles. And the cardan brought from the UAE with the bearing will cost 32,000 rubles. Feel the difference.

Chassis and body

Mitsubishi Outlander XL suspension completely independent, with MacPherson racks in front and rear multi-dimensional design. Main complaints to front racks that can flow and after 10-15 thousand km. This defect is found at every fourth crossover. Shock absorbers cost 4200 rubles. a piece. Also short-lived hub bearings. I am glad that they change separately from the hubs and the dealer go 3000 rubles. (Although you can buy and cheaper). Change them as it is out of order, and not couples, as usual. But the durable racks (1100 rubles) and sleeves (540 rubles) stabilizers that are easily survived for the "hundred".

Outlander XL is built on the basis of the tenth lancer. Chassis Crossovene was surprisingly strong. BUT weak places It can only be called the front amortized racks (4200 rubles), which sometimes flow for 10 thousand km, and the wheel bearings (3000 rubles), permanently failing. Therefore, they change (work - 3000 rubles) they are not in pairs, as usual, and the piece.

IN rear suspensionexcept hub bearings (3000 rubles), nothing before 100-130 thousand km is not breaking. Even the shock absorbers of the servicemen call the eternal. But the springs (5000 rubles) are weak. Because of the frequent ride with full load, they seek. Not much durable brake discs (4800 rubles) - on 2- and 2,4-liter modifications, they are no longer withstanding more than 50-70 thousand km, and on 3-liter versions they change in two or three times more often.

Body on Mitsubishi Outlander XL corrosion is not amenable. Paintwork, like all "Japanese", weak. The windows of the rear doors over time are thrown out, which gives to know their jammed rubber seal. In this case, it is necessary to change the P-shaped sealing gum and to fasten the fastenings of one of the guides. Replacing the dealer - from 8500 rubles. Without visible reasons, windshields cracked. Mechanics argue: due to insufficient body rigidity. On cars after restyling, 2010 there were no such problems.

Close relatives

As part of the cooperation of Mitsubishi and PSA companies based on Outlander XL, two French twin brothers were created - Peugeot 4007 and Citroen C-Crosser. Since 2010, the assembly of all three crossovers has been established at the PSA-Mitsubishi plant near Kaluga. The "French" differed from their progenitor only by external styling and emblems on the steering wheel, as well as the level of complete sets. However, in technical terms, the difference between them is much more. If Mitsubishi Outlander XL on the Russian market was exclusively offered with gasoline engines 2.0, 2.4 and 3 l, then in the gamma of French clones there were only two power aggregate: 2,4 liter gasoline volume and 2.2-liter turbodiesel (156 hp). Moreover, the 2.4-liter was combined with a 5-speed "mechanics" and a variator, and a 6-speed MCP and a 6-step "robot" with double grip were envisaged for a diesel engine.

Restyling

After the modernization of 2010, the front of the Outlander XL body was transformed. The design of the car began to cross the rest of the concern with the rest of the concern, receiving the branded grille in the form of a huge trapezium. In the cabin, finishing materials were improved, and a small box, previously located above the central console, simply removed. In the most expensive version of Ultimate, a touchscreen display has been established, combined with the navigation system and the rear view chamber. The technique has changed. In the gamma of the engines there was a gasoline 2-liter motor of the return of 147 hp, and the power V6 of the Japanese increased from 220 to 230 hp Moreover, the 2-liter version is only a front-wheel drive. The Invecs III variator began to adapt to the driving mode and respond faster to supply gas.

Verdict

Editor:

Outlander XL, of course, there are shortcomings and small defects, but they dissolve against the background of the overall reliability of this crossover. In addition, he looks quite modern today, and so much that some potential customers prefer his new model. If the funds allow, we advise you to stay on more recent copies - better post-folding, which got rid of many problems. In addition, Outlander XL has good maintainability, and spare parts can be bought very inexpensively. It is also important that the officials today offer weighty discounts on the maintenance of machines that have already come out of the warranty age.

With the advent of the third generation Mitsubishi Outlander on secondary market The sales of its predecessor with the XL index were noticeably activated. This practical and rather large crossover has not only worthy consumer qualities, but not at all is not destroyed in content and repair. For the availability, unpretentiousness and reliability of the model fans call it an honest car.

MITSUBISHI OUTLANDER XL 2007-2012 GV

History

The interior is ergonomic, although the steering column is adjusted only in height. In the center of the front panel hid the second glove box

The five-speed manual box was combined with 2.0 and 2.4 liters engines. True, there are few such versions on the market

An important role in popularity Outlander XL has played quite worthy equipment. Russian dealers sold a car in several levels of complete sets: Inform, Invite, Intense, Instyle and Inspire. The basic version of Inform with a 2.4 liter motor and a manual transmission included ABS, frontal airbags, climate control, dynamic stabilization system, CD magnet, heated front seats, fog lights and alloy wheels. In the version of Invite, a clinoremable variator and six airbags were installed instead of "mechanics" instead of two. An Intense version with a V6 motor and a 6-speed "machine" was supplemented with an electric drive and heated mirrors, as well as a light sensor. For the instyle version, a leather interior was offered. And the top design of INSPIRE went with a hatch in the roof, xenon headlights and an advanced Rockford audio system with a CD changer.

Engine

For all the production time on Outlander XL, gasoline engines 2.0 liters (147 hp) and 2.4 liters (170 hp), as well as 3-liter V6 (220 and 230 hp) . Turbodiesels of 2.0 and 2.2 liters were issued 140 and 156 hp Accordingly, two versions of 2,2-liter (156 and 177 hp) remained after restyling). We sold only gasoline modifications.

Motors of 2.0 and 2.4 liters, equipped with MIVEC intake valve control systems, are so reliable that the servicemen even under pressure did not produce any compromising on them. Would spend money only for regulatory changes in oil and filters (4500 rubles) every 15 thousand km

Engines 2.0 and 2.4 l are the same design. In the drive of the gas distribution mechanism, they use the so-called non-free chain. The term of its service is designed for the life expectancy of the motor, and so far there were no cases of replacement. There are no valve hydraulic components in motors - adjustment is made by selection of washers. This operation will be required only after 100 thousand km, and in fact - even later. Experts advise periodically monitor the state of the rollers of the drive belt of the auxiliary units (pump, the pump of the hydraulic agent and the generator). The fact is that by 60 thousand km made of plastic rollers wear out - their working surface from cylindrical over time turns into a conical or barrel-shaped. In the end, the belt slips and jumps. Fortunately, in most cases this happens without serious consequences for the engine. The replacement will cost 15,000 rubles, of which 12,000 rubles. Cost parts. Immediately alleged that the details purchased in the store will be 25-40% cheaper than the dealers. Yes, and it is more expedient to perform work on specialized hundred.

All aggregates are designed for 95th gasoline. But they work perfectly well on 92nd - it is recommended to use and "officials". Motor electronics - from the discharge of superneck. Cases of failure of oxygen sensors and mass flow of air, idling and others are part of a part.

Transmission

The variator got rid of congenital defects in 2008, and after modernization it became more durable. So that he later serve as faithfully, it follows every two years or 60 thousand km to update transmission and a filter for 7000 rubles.

The automatic 6-speed hydromechanical box showed itself from the best side. And for a long and happy life, it should provide timely service with the replacement of oil through 60 thousand km.

All-wheel drive transmission Outlander XL is also reliable. Under normal conditions, the torque is transmitted only to the front wheels, and the rear are connected automatically when the front is slipped through an electronic-managed multi-volume friction clutch - by a computer signal, the powerful electromagnet compresses the springs that run in the oil bath. Moreover, the coupling can be forcibly blocking (4WD Lock mode) when you have to overcome the complex road relief. But it is not necessary to confuse Outlander XL with an SUV - the coupling in the difficult conditions of movement very quickly overheats. There are almost no weak points in the transmissions. Is that the suspension bearing that is wears after 100 thousand km. True, he changes with the cardan shaft. Dealers have a detail worth about 80,000 rubles. And the cardan brought from the UAE with the bearing will cost 32,000 rubles. Feel the difference.

Chassis and body

Outlander XL is built on the basis of the tenth lancer. The chassis of the crossover was surprisingly strong. And we can only be called weak places in it (4200 rubles), which sometimes flow on 10 thousand km, and wheel bearings (3000 rubles), permanently failing. Therefore, they change (work - 3000 rubles) they are not in pairs, as usual, and the piece.

In the rear suspension, in addition to the bearings of the hubs (3000 rubles), nothing before 100-130 thousand km does not break. Even the shock absorbers of the servicemen call the eternal. But the springs (5000 rubles) are weak. Because of the frequent ride with full load, they seek. There are no particularly durable brake discs (4800 rubles) - on 2- and 2,4-liter modifications, they are no longer 50-70 thousand km, but on 3-liter versions Change two or three times more often.

Outlander XL does not differ in the resistance of the paintwork. But the metal itself from rust is very securely protected. But the body rigidity is clearly insufficient - over time, the corners of the rear wheel collapse are left. Mechanics remains only to expose them (from 2500 rubles)

Restyling
