★ Top Answer
The 2008 Mitsubishi Lancer requires 4.0 liters (or 4.2 quarts) of 5W-30 engine oil. It is advised to change this oil every 6 months or 7,500 miles, whichever comes first. However, depending on your driving habits, you may need to change it more frequently. Regularly checking the oil is important to prevent potential engine damage from low levels or old oil. If you detect the smell of oil, excess exhaust, or hear a knocking noise from your engine, you have waited too long and should schedule a service appointment immediately. The average cost to have the oil replaced in the 2008 Lancer ranges from $110 to $140, with labor accounting for $30 to $50 of that total. Popular oil products for self-replacement include Amsoil, Mobil 1, Pennzoil Ultra Platinum, and Royal Purple if you want to save some money.
