The second most regular possibility of a cabin noise in your Mitsubishi Outlander Sport is that some elements that come apart may be loose, either because of too frequent disassembly that would have reduced the holding between these parts, or because of vibrations. Think about looking at your ceiling light which is often the reason of a cabin noise on Mitsubishi Outlander Sport.

If, on the other hand, you experience cabin noises in your Mitsubishi Outlander Sport when summer starts or when the outside temperature is warm, it is sadly plausible that this syndrome manifests itself more during these periods. In fact, plastic being a rather flexible material will expand with heat and will therefore much more easily rub on other plastic or metal parts, this is what will generate cabin noises when hot on your Mitsubishi Outlander Sport. It is difficult to solve this problem, you can always look for the exact origin of the noise, and try to put foams or tape between the expanding parts to limit their noise from their expansion.
