Nice vid bro. I’ve watched several of your videos recently and they are great for people who want to DIY. A tip if you ever start racing your car... do a fog light delete. I have raced my MR hard consistently since buying it 5 years ago and it hasn’t overheated once since doing the delete. I know this is unrelated to this vid and you keep the cooler clean, but airflow is the key.
@@WazzysWheels so funny story, not funny, my mechanic hasn't found time to do it. Literally bought the £200 of oil and filter just waiting, so many people having emergencies I'm pushed back. Will reply here if I remember after I get it done
@@licksludgee lol:( i just ordered my oil, tactrix open port and hopefully can get it done. the car has 96k on it and no history of service-- it is also slipping in 4th -- so this is just an expensive test for me lol
@@WazzysWheels best of luck with it, worth it though because if you get the box working then your car will be solid, providing the chains been done and the oils been changed that engine will go on for a really long time
I noticed that you didn't take off all of the drain ports on the bottom of the transmission. I recently drained mine and there was a very significant amount of fluid left after I drained the fluid from the lowest drain plug. I drained the rest through the second drain plug. Im very positive that there was a large amount of old fluid still left in the transmission that got mixed in with the new fluid. Maybe I didn't see it in the video when you did take off the other drain port but either way i'd suggest opening up every drain port on the transmission so that you get all of the old fluid out.
So you mention with 3 drain plugs, its 7 litres of fluid. What about the 2 drain plug version of the sst? Assuming its the same as well or did it change?
SST oil looks awful dark. I've changed mine 3-4 times since buying the car with around 88,000 km on it, and it rarely comes out noticeably darker than it went in.
Good job but...do you know about the "service mode" ? The manual say that: you have to put the trans on "service mode" before do the job. There are a few steps to do that so!
@@rowanlewisuk If I saw it right you just have to take off the front cover(the black one) and some other bits (and maybe not even take off the front metal bumper)
What part of Wales you from mate, sounds like Cardiff or Swansea area, I'm from Brecon originally but live in Florida now. Thanks for the vid on this mate, getting ready to do my 2014 X MR (USDM)
@@rowanlewisuk You're welcome mate, I just stumbled on your channel today as I have ordered the Daiqueen SST-F1 to do my SST transmission oil change as I'm past due, do you have any other vids on fluid changes.
@@allanmorris1438 I recenlty made a video fitting an stt temperature gauge and also have a video showing how to do a gearbox reteach bu thats about it for gearbox related videos and glad i could help
It was exactly the same as the one I put in in every way. I compared them in detail to be sure so I don't think so. I beleive reusable dodson ones are metal mate
What are the torque figures you used for the bolts to tighten it all up and what brand fliter did you use, I have an 09 lancer ralliart sst
19 ft lbs mitsubishi genuine filter
@@rowanlewisuk My Ralliart shop manual gives torque figure for the filter 15 +/- 2N.m or 11ft/lb I think Evo would be the same.
Pro tip: break the fill bolt loose first. Its possible to drain the gearbox and then realize the fill bolt is seized --- bad day lol
Very wise man

I plan on building it into a full on track car some day. Thanks for the nice comment I’m glad you’re enjoying the content
I think mitsubishi talked to Castrol and now you cant find it. Crazy i never saw the manufacturered by Castrol at the bottom of the sst can
Excellent video man, thanks so much. Doing this service this weekend on my 14 MR
Great video mate I'm about to buy a 2010 ralliart this will be the first thing I will be doing once I get it
Dang I wish I came across this video before changing my mind about getting the ralliart back in april
I got my RalliArt last August, I am about to do this job...as in this week, wish me luck
@@licksludgee did it go well? did you have to do a teach in?

I have 156k on my SE, I just did my rear fluids. The diff and trans. I'll have have to get on this. Thanks for finding an alternative fluid.
you have a cvt
@@zachyoung2002 SE is a mix of the MR and the GSR might not be in your market.

Never heard of that before
Thanks, good sir. Nice and clear instructions.
Glad it was helpful!
Well explained....thanks for sharing
thanks for your sharing, can you share your comment about the TRANSMAX DUAL oil?
No problem with it. I have a video 7 ways to kill an sst I go into detail in that video 🙂
Hi. Nice clear tutorial. BTW , have you ever considered to also do the internal filter change?
polik971 I had considered it but I’d have to take engine and gearbox out and then seperate gearbox and dismantle it so too much work
@@rowanlewisuk If I saw it right you just have to take off the front cover(the black one) and some other bits (and maybe not even take off the front metal bumper)
Great video. Thanks for the info👍
Cheers bud appreciate your comments
Do we need to replace fluid. Run the car. And redrain and fill again? Owners manual says this but is it necessary?
Is this for a 2014 as well?
What is the exact name of the oil? I cannot find it anywhere!!
castrol transsmax dual fluid
Is this similar to a ralliart?
If you did this service again today would you use the same fluid ?
Great video. Do you need to do another teach in after this?
Thanks mate. Its not essential but recommended
What’s the difference between the fluid you’re using Vs. using Diaqueen SST-1?
Nothing castrol makes dia queen for the sst.
Exact same oil
Oil change in SST static or dynamic is recommended ?
Can you show movie how your sst works when you drive ? in normal mod, 1-2-3 gears up end down
You should be driving it in ss mode
Sport mode or super sport mode? And why? I have ah ralliart 2009 no mods original!
Sport modes has greater clutch pressure, less slipping, trans will last longer. Normal only for highway cruising.
Is there a US equivalent to the Castrol Transmax Dual? I don't see it available here.
Diaqueen. OEM
Darin Chao 😂
So from my research, transmax dual is the same as dyaqueen oem. Correct?
Yes
Pero para ver el nivel??
Great tutorial m8

Wasn't that a reusable sst filter you took out?
It was exactly the same as the one I put in in every way. I compared them in detail to be sure so I don't think so. I beleive reusable dodson ones are metal mate
@@rowanlewisuk On the video it looks like a reusable metal one. And yes Dodson and SSP are both made from metal.
Why the Transmax dual guild
Fluid
Its the same as Diaqueen. Castrol make it and its rebadged
Greta video
Hello, where did you purchase the castoral oil? :)
rey ortega i got it from opie oils but i now recomend using diaqueen from rosssport
Did you run with issue not using diaqueen?
@@MarkinaterX no its been perfect 👌🏿
@@rowanlewisuk why do you now recommend diaqueen?
@@MarkinaterX Diaqueen is made by Castrol. same oil
So you’re not using diaqueen and did it run perfectly like as if it you were ?
Runs spot on
