Hello, the discussion pertains to a EURO Mitsubishi Outlander, model year 2008. I have already installed ASA (parts catalog reference), however I could not identify a section where parts related to towing are displayed and numbered, thus I'm asking for your help.
According to ASA the following is listed in the CAPS Tab when the vehicle's VIN is entered.
Model: CW7W
Classification: XJXFZL6
Option: A08
Exterior: A39E
Interior: 58X
Production Period: 2008031 - 2008031
Other Info: 2200 DIESEL, HI-LINE(4WD / 7SEATER / EURO4), 6F M/T, LHD
I'm especially interested in the OEM part number for the electrical harness that is needed when towing. Also any diagram/part number related to the actual tow bar and hook are also welcome.
I have browsed the categories manually with no success, oddly the parts do not appear to be listed. I also attempted a 'keyword' search in the field 'Part Name' with the search terms TOW (automatic suggestion to TOWING) and TRA (automatic suggestion TRAILER) again with no result. I also tried without a VIN and in the region North America and could not find the section where the towing hardware was listed.
The only clues that I could harness I found in the following post but with no correspondance to an actual part in the catalog. The link given in that post points to an entry in the electrical manual so the harness does exist.
Please help.

 

Ring a dealer

 

Enter your VIN and try there.

 

I guess I'll have to contact the dealer, although it would have been easier with a specific part number since it would at least guarantee that it belongs to this specific model. I believe the reason for these not being covered in the conventional parts catalog is because Mitsubishi themselves go to a specialized towing equipment manufacturer, purchase the kit, so technically it's never part of their parts inventory. For Europe I have reason to believe this manufacturer might be Aragon in Spain.
Something else supporting this is that for this generation Outlander, its practically the same car as a Citroen C-Crosser. When plugged into Diagbox, the system sees it a Citroen actually . Now, in Citroen's parts catalog regardless of the car there is a section called 'Towing and harness' which for the C-Crosser also presents no data.
