Parts for your 2010 Mitsubishi Outlander-Pedal pads

2010 Mitsubishi Outlander pedal pads — what they do and when to replace them

Based on Mitsubishi Motors’ Workshop Manual for the Outlander CW-series (Group 35 – Brake) and the Mitsubishi ASA/EPC parts catalogue for CW5W/CW6W (MY2010), this model is fitted with a replaceable rubber brake pedal pad on automatic variants, and both brake and clutch pedal pads on manual variants. The accelerator pedal on 2010 Outlander models is an integrated assembly and generally does not use a separate, replaceable pad.

On a 2010 Mitsubishi Outlander, the pedal pads are the grippy rubber covers that sit over the metal pedal plates. Their main job is to give reliable traction underfoot so the driver’s shoe doesn’t slip—especially when it’s wet, muddy, or there’s a bit of sand on the floor mat. They also add a touch of comfort, damp some vibration, and protect the metal pedal faces from wear. Where fitted, they’re a small but important safety item.

As part of routine servicing, it’s smart to inspect the pedal pads every service interval. Look for smooth, shiny patches, hardened rubber, cracks, edge lifting, or any section worn thin enough that the metal backing can be felt. If any of that shows up, replace the pad straight away. Mitsubishi’s service literature treats this as a safety inspection item—loss of pedal grip is a risk not worth taking.

Replacement is simple: pull the old pad off the pedal plate, clean the metal face with a mild detergent and dry it, then work the new pad on, ensuring the lip seats fully around the perimeter. Avoid silicone dressings or greasy cleaners on the new pad, as they can make it slippery. Use a quality OEM or equivalent pad that matches the Outlander CW-series pedal size. If your Outlander has an alloy “sports” pedal set, the pad style may differ or be integrated, check the EPC listing for your VIN to confirm the correct part.

• Typical signs it’s due: slippery feel, visible cracking, hardened rubber, or exposed metal.
• When to check: every service, more often if the vehicle sees beach runs, muddy tracks, or wet-weather commuting.
• Good practice: keep floor mats clipped in place so they don’t ride up under the pedal, and avoid stacking mats.

For manual Outlanders, apply the same checks to the clutch pedal pad. The accelerator pedal is a sealed module and isn’t serviced with a separate pad, if its surface is damaged, inspect the whole pedal assembly per the workshop manual.

Popular questions about 2010 Mitsubishi Outlander pedal pads

Does the 2010 Outlander accelerator have a replaceable pad?
No. The accelerator is an integrated pedal module, so there’s no separate rubber pad to replace. If the surface is excessively worn or damaged, the workshop manual points to inspecting or replacing the pedal assembly rather than a cover.

How often should the brake pedal pad be replaced?
There’s no fixed kilometre interval—replace on condition. If the pad is slippery, cracked, or thinning, swap it immediately. In Aussie and Kiwi conditions with wet gear, beach sand, or muddy boots, expect faster wear and check at every service.

Is the clutch pedal pad the same as the brake pad on manual models?
They’re similar but not always identical. The Mitsubishi EPC for CW-series lists distinct pads by pedal and transmission type. Match by VIN to be sure you’re fitting the correct pad size and profile.
