Lube Check Mitsibushi Pajero 2.5 L Diesel

I have a Pajero 2.5 L Diesel.  It is in wonderfully 'sound' condition, but because it is a 1990 model I still do a weekly check on the all the lubes and fluids under the hood.  Here are some of the lubes and fluids that need routine/weekly checking:

The Engine Oil.  Look for the dipstick and pull it out.  Remember not to check the engine oil after the engine has run.  Best time is in the morning before starting the engine. 

The Oil level should be on FULL - that the the notch closest to the dipstick handle

 Check the level of the Coolant in the engine by opening the radiator cap.  Note that the engine must be cool when you open the radiator cap.  The level of the coolant be touching the bottom of the smallest rim you see in the picture.

 Check the level of the coolant in the overflow tank of the radiator (to the right of the radiator).. The level should be between low and full

 The Brake Fluid.  The level of the brake fluid should be between low and full.

 The Hydraulic Clutch Fluid.  The level of this fluid should be between low and full as well.

The Power Steering Fluid.  Twist the cap and pull out the dipstick (rather fast so you can see the level of the fluid before it runs down).  The level of this fluid should be between low and full as well.

The Washer fluid (water).  There is a reservoir (for the washes fluid) opposite to the overflow tank of the radiator and then another one next to the power steering reservoir and also one in the backdoor that serves the rear window.  These water reservoirs can just be topped up with cooled kettle water

 That's the weekly check!

Good value for money products..
