Why is it better to repair a CVT variator in a high-quality car service center?

When sending a Mitsubishi Outlander for repairs due to problems with the CVT gearbox, the owner must be sure that the work will be carried out efficiently. After all, the further trouble-free and long-term operation of the car depends on this. And the cost of repairs and spare parts in case of replacement is quite high.

To be confident in professionally performed CVT repairs, you need to choose only a proven, high-quality car service. Here they will competently carry out diagnostics, identify the problem, select the appropriate spare parts, disassemble, assemble and install the equipment.

By contacting our CVT repair service in Moscow, the client receives a full quality guarantee for all work performed. After repairing the variator by service station technicians, the car will cover the same mileage as when purchased from a showroom.

You can diagnose and fix problems of any complexity at the CVT Repair Center No. 1. Get additional information by calling: Moscow – 8 (495) 161-49-01, St. Petersburg – 8 (812) 223-49-01. We accept calls from any region.

Replacements according to service life

Depending on the state of wear, in addition to the brake pads, the accessory drive belt and the timing chain are replaced.

There is no provision for replacing the suspension belt on the Mitsubishi Outlander; it must only be checked every maintenance. For the 2.0 engine, the original belt will be Mitsubishi 1340A123, price 2300 rubles. For a unit with a volume of 2.4, the poly V-belt from the Mitsubishi manufacturer will be 1340A150, the cost is 3800 rubles. For a gasoline engine with a volume of 3.0 liters, the original belt will be Mitsubishi belt 1340A052 - 2300 rubles.

Valve train chain. Only fits the 2.0 liter engine. According to routine maintenance, replacement of the timing chain on the Mitsubishi Outlander is not provided, i.e. Its service life is calculated for the entire service life of the car. In case of wear, replacing the timing chain is the most expensive, but it is also rarely required. The article number for the new replacement chain on the GF7W (4J11) engine is Mitsubishi MN183891 (aka CHRYSLER 1140A073). Price 3300 rubles.

Weaknesses of the Mitsubishi Outlander III

  • variable speed drive;
  • sound insulation;
  • discrepancy between the declared fuel consumption and the actual one;
  • electrician;
  • assembly.

1. So, the main problem of the Outlanders is the CVT. Although Mitsubishi equated the service life of this device to the service life of the entire car, in practice this is far from the case, and it is unlikely that this device will last 300,000 km. In practice, CVT failures begin to occur at 40 and 70 thousand km. Moreover, the more you ride off-road, the shorter the service life of the variator, which, with intensive use on bad roads, decreases by almost 2 times! Therefore, the good cross-country ability of this crossover is offset by an increased chance of getting a CVT malfunction, which, alas, cannot be treated. The CVT can be changed entirely, and this is very decent money (let’s say, the cost of a CVT with all-wheel drive is 88,000 rubles). What are the signs of a CVT malfunction that should prompt you to urgently go to a service station? If there is slippage and sudden jerks when the crossover moves, traction disappears, vibration begins at high and low speeds, a signal lights up on the instrument panel and, finally, the car comes to a complete stop, then you are out of luck and you need to work on the variator. At some service stations, the variator is rebuilt, but the manufacturer does not recommend doing this. How can you make sure that this evil fate does not befall you?

Firstly, warm up the gearbox in cold weather; to do this, with the brake pressed, turn on gear mode “D” or “R” and let the car run a little, and don’t “tear” your cvt in the cold season (before warming up, don’t increase the speed above 2500), secondly, check the transmission fluid level, thirdly, do not load the box when driving on country roads and, in general, if you can, refuse towing. Carefully monitor the reading of the variator sensor and then, to paraphrase the famous song, increase “It’s a matter of chance, it’s a matter of chance... “lucky with the variator.”

2. Another problem with the Mitsubishi Outlander is its noise. Despite improvements in this direction, unfortunately, the sound insulation of the crossover leaves much to be desired. Our advice to you is to immediately order sound insulation from the Dealer Center or specialized centers when purchasing a car, where it will cost less. The process will take 5-6 hours, and at the end of it, using, for example, the SGM M3 vibration isolator and others, you simply will not recognize your car.

Type of variator and its design

2013 Mitsubishi Outlander vehicles with a continuously variable transmission are equipped with a V-belt type variator model “jf011e”, developed by the Japanese. Let's look at the structure of the unit. The variable speed transmission (hereinafter referred to as CVT) consists of the following elements:

  • a mechanism responsible for transmitting torque and ensuring separation of the gearbox from the engine (when neutral speed is turned on);
  • the variator itself;
  • a mechanism that allows the crossover to move in reverse;
  • control system.


Outlander CVT chain
Next, let's look at the operating principle of a CVT automatic transmission (automatic transmission). As has already become clear, due to its design, this unit cannot provide the car with reverse movement (engagement of reverse gear). Therefore, CVT developers had to introduce additional mechanisms. In particular, we are talking about planetary devices, the operating principle of which is similar to a traditional automatic transmission.

The operation of the unit itself is based on the principle of simultaneously changing the diameters of the driven and drive shafts. Their diameter is changed by a special drive. When the car is stationary, the drive shaft has the smallest diameter, and the driven shaft has the largest diameter. If the vehicle begins to move away and accelerate, then as the engine speed increases, the diameter of the drive pulley begins to increase, and the diameter of the driven pulley begins to decrease.
