9. Remove the oil screen(A).
10.Remove the upper oil pan, using the SST(09215- 3C000)(A).
Be careful not to damage the contact surfaces of upper oil pan and lower oil pan.
11. Remove the oil pump case(A).
12.After removing the plug(A), remove the relief spring(B) and the velief plunger(C).
REPLACEMENT
OIL AND FILTER
a.Prolonged and repeated contact with mineral oil will result in the removal of natural fats from the skin, leading
to dryness, irritation and dermatitis. In addition, used engine oil contains potentially harmful contaminants
which may cause skin cancer.
b. Wear protective clothing and gloves in order to minimize the length and frequency of contact of your skin to
used oil. Wash your skin thoroughly with soap and water, or use water- less hand cleaner, to remove any used
engine oil. Do not use gasoline, thinners, or solvents.
c.In order to preserve environment, used oil or used oil filter must be disposed only at designated disposal
sites.
1. Park the car on a level ground.
Start the engine and let it warm up.
2. Turn the engine off.
3. Drain engine oil.
(1) Remove the oil filler cap.
(2) After lifting the car, remove the oil drain plug(A) and drain oil into a container.
4. Replace the oil filter.
(1) Remove the oil filter(B).
(2)Check the part number of a new oil filter is as the same as that of the old one.
(3) Replace the oil filter.
(4) Tighten it slightly until the o - ring of the filter cap contacting on its position.
(5) Tighten it with the specified torque.
Tightening torque
16.7 ~ 24.5Nm(1.7 ~ 2.5kgf.m, 12.3 ~ 18.1lb- ft)
5. Refill with engine oil.
(1) Install the oil drain plug with a new gasket.
Tightening torque
34.3 ~ 44.1Nm (3.5 ~ 4.5kgf.m, 25.3 ~ 32.5lb- ft)
(2) Fill with fresh engine oil, after removing the engine oil level gauge.
Capacity
Total : 4.8 L (5.07 US qt, 4.22 lmp qt)
Oil pan : 4.2 L (4.43 US qt, 3.69 lmp qt)
Drain and refill including oil filter : 4.5 L (4.75 US qt, 3.95 lmp qt)
Oil quality : ABOVE API SJ / SL or SAE 5W- 20
(3) Install the oil filler cap and the oil level gauge.
6. Start the engine and ensure that no oil is leaking from the drain plug or the oil filter.
7. Recheck engine oil level.
INSTALLATION
Oil pump case
1. Assembly the relief spring(B) and the relief plunger(C) and tighten the plug(A).
a.Make clean the sealing face before assembling two parts.
b. Remove harmful foreign materials on the sealing face before applying sealant.
c. When applying sealant gasket, sealant must not be protrude into the inside of oil pan.
d. To prevent leakage of oil, apply sealant gasket to the inner threads of the bolt holes.
e. After assembly, wait at least 30 minutes before filling the engine with oil.
(3) Fix the oil pan and tighten the bolts in several steps uniformly.
Tightening torque
9.8 ~ 11.8Nm(1.0 ~ 1.2kgf.m, 7.2 ~ 8.7lb - ft)
7.Install the oil filter bracket(A).
Tightening torque
18.6 ~ 23.5Nm(1.9 ~ 2.4kgf.m, 13.7~ 17.4lb- ft)
a.During air bleeding, replenish the fluid supply so that the level never falls below the lower position of the
filter.
b. If air bleeding is done while the vehicle is idling, the air will be broken up and absorbed into the fluid. Be
sure to do the bleeding only while cranking.
c. Reinstall the fuel pump fuse, and start the engine(idling).
d. Turn the steering wheel to the left and the right until there are no air bubbles in the oil reservoir.
Do not hold the steering wheel turned all the way to either side for more than ten seconds.
e. Confirm that the fluid is not milky, and that the level is up to the position specified on the level gauge.
f. Confirm that there is little change in the surface o the fluid when the steering wheel is turned left and right.
a. If the surface of the fluid changes considerably, air bleeding should be done again.
b. If the fluid level rises suddenly when the engine is stopped, it indicates that there is still air in the
system.
c. If there is air in the system, a jingling noise may be heard from the pump and the control valve
may also produce unusual noises. Air in the system will shorten the life of the pump and other
parts.
OIL PUMP PRESSURE TEST (OIL PUMP RELIEF PRESSURE)
1.Disconnect the pressure hose from the oil pump. Connect the special tool between the oil pump and pressure hose
as illustrated.
2. Bleed the air, and then start the engine and turn the steering wheel several times so that the fluid temperature
rises to approximately 50°C (122°F).
3. Set the engine speed to 1,000 rpm.
4. Close the shut- off valve of the special tool and measure the fluid pressure to confirm that it is within the range.
standard vaule :
Relief pressure: 90 +3/- 2 kgf/cm²
Don’t keep the shut- off valve on the pressure gauge closed for longer than seconds.
