3.1.3 ENGINE OIL, RENEW
SRO 12.60.00
. Undo and remove the sump plug positioned at the rear of
the sump, drain the engine oil into a suitable receptacle
and dispose of
it in a safe and environmentally friendly
manner.
Replenish the engine oil, to the correct level on the dip-
stick (see Fig. 1).
When the oil is renewed, start the engine, wait for the oil
light to extinguish and switch off the engine for 30 sec- onds.
. Finally remove and wipe clean the dip stick,
check the oil level - replenish if necessary.
. For recommended engine oil refer to Appendix AI.
3.1.4 OIL FILTER CARTRIDGE, RENEW
SRO 12.60.04
The white oil filter cartridge displaying the Jaguar logo, is lo- cated on the left-hand side of the engine below the throttle
assembly (Fig. 2).
When refitting, tighten the oil filter cartridge using hand
pressure only.
On no account use an oil filter strap designed
forthe removal
of cartridges.
m: The normal tightening torque of the oil filter is a 3/8 to 1/2 turn after initial contact.

. Undo and remove the sump plug positioned at the rear of
the sump, drain the engine oil into a suitable receptacle
and dispose of
it in a safe and environmentally friendly
manner.
. Replenishtheengineoiltothecorrect level (1 Fig. 1) onthe

1ynfa: If the '0' ring on the on the filler cap is damaged, re- move the '0' ring and clean the groove. Secure a
new '0' ring in position using silicon sealant. Treat
the screw threads with copper grease, and grease
the top face of the oil filler with Hylosil lubricant.
When the oil is renewed, start the engine, wait for the oil
light to extinguish and switch off the engine for 30 sec- onds.
. Finally remove and wipe clean the dip stick
(Fig. l), check the oil level - replenish as necessary.
For recommended engine oil refer to Appendix AI. Fig.

OIL FILTER CARTRIDGE, RENEW
SRO 12.60.04
The white oil filter cartridge displaying the Jaguar logo, is lo- cated on the lower left-hand side of the engine, near side of
the sump. Access for removing the cartridge is from under- neath the vehicle (Fig. 2).
Remove the catalyst heat shield (where fitted) and use a coil
spring type filter wrench to remove the cartridge.
Start and run the engine for a few seconds to charge the
filter, then stop the engine and
checkthe oil level. Replenish
as necessary.
