I have a Outlander GX3 2.2 DI-D 2016
Once I'm on the motorway I always use cruise control and set it to around 75mph. After a few seconds or when I go SLIGHTLY uphill where the car has to work a tiny bit harder the vehicle start to judder softly then roughly.
soon as I disengaged the CC the car is fine!
I'm booked in this week for a diesel carbon clean this week as I'm trying to work through possibilities. Anyone know any info on this would be muchly appreciated. Cheers

 

Can you confirm that vehicle does not switch to lower gear when driving slight uphill?
Have you tried to drive on the same road with the same speed (keeping it constant) but with CC turned off? I assume you have A/T.

 

It is manual, 75mph!! Even does it on the flat. When CC is off its fine. And no, its 6 speed manual. 2.2 DI-D 2016 GX3

 

Hi any updates mines a 2014 2.2 diesel gx4 auto outlander adsacly the same thing has happened in curse and bang started juddering no codes on dash nothing macanics are at a standstill have no idea keep relacing parts, has had new dpf, new trottle body, maff sensor and still happening every so often. HELP PLEASE!
Was told it might be the injectors also fuel line?

Thanks
Louise

 

I would advise to visit the Mitsu authorized workshop and update software/firmware for ECU, gearbox, 4WD control unit etc modules. It is clearly a SW bug, perhaps, an A/T does not switch to lower gear in time or at higher load when CC is activated.

 

Thanks so much going to mitsubishi dealer on monday and will tell them what you've told me and hopefully its an easy cheap fix thanks for helping much appreciate was giving up hope on the outlander as trying to diagnos the problem is a nightmare with no warning light and contantly replacing things i think it might be.

Thanks again!
