1.5 Engine Lubrication System
Lubrication Description
A structural diecast aluminium oil pan is fitted that incorporates an oil suction pipe, an oil deflector and an oil level
sensor. The oil suction pipe is bolted in to the oil pan and seals to the bottom of the cylinder block with a gasket. The oil
deflector is bolted to the upper portion of the oil pan and ensures oil supply is maintained under all conditions. The oil
level sensor is mounted thr ough the bottom of the oil pan.
A crankshaft driven gerotor oil pump is mounted to the front of the cylinder block. The pump, which incorporates an
internal pressure-relief valve, draws oil from the oil sucti on tube through the lower passage in the cylinder block. Oil is
then directed through an upper passage to the left-hand side of the cylinder block where the oil filter adapter is mounted.
The oil filter adapter incorporat es a top-access, cartridge style oil filter. The filter is accessed through a screw-on cap tha t
incorporates an oil bypass valve. The o il filter adapter housing incorporates a drain back control valve and a threaded oil
pressure sender. Oil flows through a lower passage within the oil filter adapter and through the o il filter cartridge. Filtered
oil travels back through the upper passage of the adapter and into the engine block.
Oil is then directed up and across the front of the cylinder block, through several drilled passages. These front passages
feed oil to each cylinder head, the passage for the main bearings and piston oil jets, the right-hand and left-hand
secondary idler sprockets and to t he primary timing chain tensioner.
Each cylinder head passage directs oil into oiling circuits for the stationary hydraulic la sh adjusters (SHLAs) and the
camshaft bearing journals. An additional passage in the cy linder head also directs oil to the secondary timing chain
tensioner.
The oil passage that supplies oil to the main bearings also s upplies oil to pressure actuated piston cooling oil jets. Each
oil jet is mounted between opposing cylinder bores and directs oil to the two bores to provide extra cooling and control
piston temperatures.
From the front passages, oil is directed to the front of the block where t he right-hand and left-hand intermediate drive
shaft sprockets and the primary timing chain tensioner are mounted. Each camshaft timing chain tensioner relies on a
gasket to maintain an oil rese rve after the engine is turned off. All camshaft timing chain tensioners incorporate a small
oil jet to supply an oil spray onto the camshaft timing chain components.
Oil returns to the oil pan, either through the camshaft timing chain area or through the drain back passages on the
outboard walls of the cylinder heads and cylinder block.

2.3 Engine Misfire without Internal Engine
Noises
Cause Correction
Abnormalities, severe cracking, bumps or missing areas in
the accessory drive belt.
Abnormalities in the accessory drive system and/or
components may cause engine speed variations that result
in a misfire diagnostic trouble code (DTC). A misfire code
may be present without an ac tual misfire condition. Replace the accessory drive belt, refer to 3.5 Accessory
Drive Belt.
Refer to 6C1-2 Engine Management – V6 – Diagnostics to
check for DTCs.
Worn, damaged or misaligned accessory drive components
and excessive pulley run-out may lead to a misfire DTC.
A misfire code may be present without an actual misfire
condition. Inspect the components and repair or replace as required.
Refer to 6C1-2 Engine Management – V6 – Diagnostics to
check for DTCs.
Loose or incorrectly fitted flexplate or crankshaft balancer
assembly.
A misfire DTC may be present without an actual misfire
condition. Repair or replace the flexplat
e or crankshaft balancer as
required, refer to 3.13 Crankshaft Balancer Assembly or
4.3 Flexplate Assembly.
Refer to 6C1-2 Engine Management – V6 – Diagnostics to
check for DTCs
Restricted exhaust system.
A severe restriction in the exhaust flow can cause
significant loss of engine performance and may set a DTC.
Possible causes of restrict ions in the exhaust system
include collapsed/dented pipes and blocked mufflers and/or
catalytic converters. Repair or replace exhaust syst
em components as required,
refer to 8B Exhaust System.
Refer to 6C1-2 Engine Management – V6 – Diagnostics to
check for DTCs
Incorrectly installed or damaged vacuum hoses. Repair or replace vacuum hoses as required.
Incorrect sealing between the intake manifold and cylinder
heads, upper intake manifold and lower intake manifold,
throttle body and intake manifold. Repair or replace the intake
manifold, throttle body gaskets,
cylinder heads, throttle body as required.
Incorrectly installed or damaged barometric
pressure(BARO) sensor and/or seal. The seal should not
be torn or damaged. Repair or replace the BARO sensor and/or seal as
required, refer to 6C1-3 Engine Management – V6 –
Service Operations.
Incorrectly installed or damaged EVAP purge solenoid
and/or O-ring seal. Repair or replace the EVAP purge solenoid and/or seal as
required, refer to 6C1-3 Engine Management – V6 –
Service Operations
Worn or loose stationary hydraulic lash adjusters (SHLA)
and/or rocker arms.
The SHLAs, rocker arms and roller bearings should be
intact and in the correct position. Replace the SHLAs and/or rocker arms as required, refer to
3.21 Stationary Hydraulic Las h Adjuster or 3.20 Rocker
Arm.
Stuck valves.
Carbon build up on the valve stem s can result in the valves
not closing correctly. Repair or replace as required, refer to 3.22 Cylinder Head
Assembly.
Excessively worn or misaligned timing chain/s. Replace the timing chain/s and components as required,
refer to 3.16 Timing Chains, Tensioners, Shoes and
Guides.
Worn camshaft lobes. Replace the camshaft/s and SHLAs as required, refer to
3.19 Camshaft or 3.21 Stati onary Hydraulic Lash Adjuster.
Excessive oil pressure.
A lubrication system with ex cessive oil pressure may lead
to excessive lash adjuster pump-up and loss of
compression. 1 Perform an oil pressure tes
t, refer to 3.1 Engine Oil.
2 Repair or replace the engine oil pump as required, refer to 3.17 Oil Pump Assembly.

Pressure Check
1 Run the engine to bring it to normal operating temperature.
2 Park the vehicle on a level surface. A vehicle not level will affect the accuracy of the level reading.
3 Stop the engine and wait 5 to 10 minutes to a llow the oil to drain back into the oil pan.
4 Check the oil level and top up with the recommended engine o il as required, refer to Check, in this Section.
5 Remove the engine oil pressure sensor (1), refer to Section 6C1-3 Engine Management – V6 – Service
Operations .
6 Install the oil pressure gauge adaptor, Tool No. J36648-A into the oil pressure sender hole in the oil
filter housing.
7 Install a suitable oil pressure gauge into the adaptor.
8 Start the engine.
9 Measure and record the pressure reading on the gauge at idle and 2000 r.p.m. Compare the results
with the specification.
Minimum engine oil pressure
@ idle ................................................................... 69 kPa
@ 2000 r.p.m. .................................................... 138 kPa
10 If the engine oil pressure is not to specification, refer to
2.19 Engine Oil Pressure Diagnosis .
11 After completing the engine oil pressure check, stop the engine and remove the oil pressure gauge.
Figure 6A1 – 25
12 Reinstall the oil pressure sensor, refer to Section 6C1-3 Engine Management – V6 – Service Operations.
