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 waterless hand cleaner to remove any used engine oil thoroughly. Do not use gasoline, thinners, or solvents.

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


  1. DRAIN ENGINE OIL


    1. Remove the oil filler cap.

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

    3. Clean and install the oil pan drain plug with a new gasket.

      40 N*m  { 408 kgf*cm, 30 ft.*lbf }

  2. REMOVE OIL FILTER SUB-ASSEMBLY


    1. Using SST, remove the oil filter sub-assembly.

  3. INSTALL OIL FILTER SUB-ASSEMBLY


    1. Check and clean the oil filter sub-assembly installation surface.

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

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

    4. Using SST, tighten the oil filter sub-assembly.

      1. Depending on the work space available, choose from the following:


        • If enough space is available, use a torque wrench to tighten the oil filter sub-assembly.

        Torque:
        18 N*m  { 173 kgf*cm, 13 ft.*lbf }

        • If enough space is not available to use a torque wrench, tighten the oil filter sub-assembly a 3/4 turn by hand or use a common wrench.

  4. ADD ENGINE OIL


    1. Add new engine oil.

      • 10W-30
      API grade SL, SM or SN multigrade engine oil

      • 15W-40

      • 20W-50
      Standard Oil Capacity
      Item Standard Condition
      Drain and refill with oil filter change 4.3 liters (4.5 US qts., 3.8 Imp. qts.)
      Drain and refill without oil filter change 4.1 liters (4.3 US qts., 3.6 Imp. qts.)
      Dry fill 5.0 liters (5.3 US qts., 4.4 Imp. qts.)

    2. Install the oil filler cap.

  5. INSPECT FOR OIL LEAK


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