Vehicle shown in this step: 2018 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross LE 1.5L 4 Cyl. Turbo
Procedure notes
Checking the engine coolant (also known as antifreeze) level in your 2025 Mitsubishi Eclipse Cross is pretty easy. In order to get an accurate reading, your 1.5 liter engine should be cool to the touch when you check it. Engine coolant / antifreeze circulates through your engine to keep it cool in the summer but won't freeze in the winter. The video above shows you where the coolant reservoir in your Eclipse Cross is located and how to check the coolant / antifreeze level. If you need to add anti-freeze, be sure to check your owners manual to determine the correct type of coolant to add - in Mitsubishis, it usually located in a section titled Fluid Capacities towards the end of your manual. See our video on how to add engine coolant for tips on adding coolant to your Eclipse Cross.
Always wear safety goggles when working on your Eclipse Cross. Taking off the coolant reservoir cap on a warm engine could cause the cap to up explosively and fluid to spray out of the reservoir. If you notice an oily surface in your coolant, immediately have your mechanic inspect your Eclipse Cross for head gasket leakage.
