OIL AND OIL FILTER REPLACEMENT

CAUTION:


  • Prolonged and repeated contact with engine oil will result in the removal of natural oils from the skin, leading to dryness, irritation and dermatitis. In addition, used engine oil contains potentially harmful contaminants which may cause skin cancer.

  • Precautions should be taken when replacing engine oil to minimize the risk of your skin making contact with used engine oil. Protective clothing and gloves that cannot be penetrated by oil should be worn. The skin should be washed with soap and water, or use waterless hand cleaner, to remove any used engine oil thoroughly. Do not use gasoline, thinners or solvents.

  • In order to protect the environment, used oil and used oil filters must be disposed of at designated disposal sites.


  1. REMOVE ENGINE UNDER COVER SEAL


    1. Remove the 2 bolts and engine under cover seal.

  2. DRAIN ENGINE OIL


    1. Remove the oil filler cap.

    2. Remove the oil pan drain plug and gasket, and then drain the engine oil into a container.

    3. Wipe the oil pan and drain plug.

    4. Install a new gasket and the oil pan drain plug.

  4. INSTALL OIL FILTER SUB-ASSEMBLY


    1. Check and clean the oil filter installation surface.

    2. Apply clean engine oil to the gasket of a new oil filter.

    3. Lightly screw the oil filter into place by hand. Tighten it until the gasket contacts the seat.

    4. A01DNPZE01

      Using SST, tighten the oil filter. Depending on the space available, choose from the following.

      SST

      1. If enough space is available, use a torque wrench to tighten the oil filter.

        Torque:
        17 N*m  { 173 kgf*cm, 13 ft.*lbf }
      2. If enough space is not available to use a torque wrench, tighten the oil filter 3/4 of a turn by hand or with a common wrench.

  5. ADD ENGINE OIL


    1. Add new engine oil.

      Standard Oil Grade
      Item Oil Grade Oil Viscosity (SAE)
      w/ DPF

      ACEA C2

      (Using engine oil other than ACEA C2 may damage catalytic converter)

      - 0W-30

      - 5W-30

      (0W-30 is best choice for fuel economy and good starting in cold weather)

      w/o DPF

      G-DLD1, API CF-4, CF or ACEA B1

      (You may also use API CE or CD)

      - 5W-30

      - 10W-30

      - 15W-40

      - 20W-50

      Standard Capacity
      Item Specified Condition
      Drain and refill without oil filter change 6.7 liters (7.1 US qts, 5.9 Imp. qts)
      Drain and refill with oil filter change 7.0 liters (7.4 US qts, 6.2 Imp. qts)
      Dry fill 7.5 liters (7.9 US qts, 6.6 Imp. qts)
    2. Install the oil filler cap.

  6. INSPECT FOR OIL LEAK


    1. Start the engine. Make sure that there are no oil leaks from the areas that were worked on.

  7. INSTALL ENGINE UNDER COVER SEAL


    1. Install the engine under cover seal with the 2 bolts.

      Torque:
      29 N*m  { 296 kgf*cm, 21 ft.*lbf }
  8. INSPECT ENGINE OIL LEVEL


    1. Warm up the engine, stop the engine and wait 5 minutes. The engine oil level should be between the dipstick low level mark and full level mark.

      If low, check for leakage and add oil up to the full level mark.

      Note

      Do not fill engine oil above the full level mark.
