Advantages of a GDI engine (a direct injection engine) include reduced fuel consumption, and performance boost.
The Volvo V40 uses (among others) the 1.8 Mitsubishi GDI engine. GDI = Gasoline Direct Injection.
The icons on the dashboard of a Mitsubishi Pajero GDI usually referred to a possible problem. The engine icon means there is a problem with the engine.

Gdi
EFI simply states that it's a fuel-injected engine( as opposed to a carburetor set up), and that's the fuel injection is controlled by electronics rather than by a mechanic fuel pump. GDI tells you that not only do you have a fuel-injected engine, but that the injectors are sitting closer to the combustion chambers(maybe even inside) which supposedly is good for fuel consumption and a clean burn.
All you have to do is check on the dip stick and you will find the code for the correct oil.
engine oil type is fully synthetic 5w /40 or genuine spec from Mitsubishi is called, 'Performance GDI' this oil will run cleaner and reduce carbon deposit development to the intake system. any more questions please ask away. Dave ( mitsiboyblue@hotmail.co.UK)
Gasoline Direct Injection
Hi, The answer for your question would be, the timing will set based on crank angle position only as it is done in 4 stroke engine. It differs for a TBI based engine and GDI based engine.
Where is the o2 sensor on a Mitsubishi pejero 1999, V6 GDI V75W
Synthetic or Conventional is your choice. If you have no major engine oil leaks and the engine is in good condition then consider using a Quality Syntheticl If the engine leaks oil then have it fixed first. Till then I would recommend using Castrol GTX 5W-30.
