The 2016 Mitsubishi Outlander requires 4.5 quarts of full synthetic 0W-20 engine oil for both engine options. It is recommended to use Mitsubishi's genuine motor oils or any oil with an ILSAC identification mark, such as Super Tech Full Synthetic or Castrol Edge. In a pinch, you can temporarily use 5W-20 oil, but it's best to switch back to 0W-20 at your next oil change. Opting for full synthetic oil provides superior engine protection, reduces wear, and enhances the lifespan of your vehicle, as long as regular oil maintenance is followed.
The oil recommended for the 2016 Mitsubishi Outlander is a full synthetic SAE 0W-20. Both engine options - the 2.4L 4-cylinder and the 3.0L V6 - require 4.5 quarts of oil, but the manual transmission model needs slightly less at 4.2 quarts.
