The 2012 Mitsubishi Outlander came standard with a 2.4L 4Cylinder engine but You also had the option to upgrade to a larger 3.0L V6 engine. The 2.4L models will have an oil capacity of 4.5 US quarts and require 5W-20 synthetic blend. If You have the V6 engine then You'll have the same capacity but require the usage of 0W-20 motor oil. The capacity being so small in these vehicles You should not expect to spend more than around $30 in fluid costs to fully fill up this engine. If You decide to take it into an oil change shop the cost will be between $90 and $130.
