Mitsubishi Outlander Used Car Checklist Malaysia
When buying a used Outlander in Malaysia, prioritise a CVT fluid inspection and transmission test drive — shuddering or hesitation at low speed suggests degraded fluid or early CVT wear. Check for S-AWC warning lights, EPS faults, and ABS codes with a full scan. Inspect the suspension bushings, CV joint boots, and tyre wear patterns. Verify the service history booklet for oil change frequency. Under the bonnet, look for signs of valve cover oil leaks and check the coolant condition. A pre-purchase inspection at a reputable workshop is strongly recommended.
