2008 GEELY MK oil temperature

2-13For servicing items whose deadlines have expired, they should be maintained at the same intervals as before. The
intervals are recorded in maintenance schedule.
Rubber hoses
Used in cooling and heating system, braking and fuel-feeding systems should be inspected by qualified Geely
technicians according to Geely maintenance schedule.
There are all very important maintenance items. Hoses must be replaced immediately should there be any aging
or damage. Please pay attention, rubber hoses age as time goes by, and they may have problems of inflation, wear,
or crack.
Special Tips

Part III EngineChpater 1 Engine AssemblyInformation about engine accessories in MK-1 Car Maintenance Manual deals with only that concerned with a
complete car. Please refer to separated Maintenance Manual for information about the engine body. Engines
concerned are MR479Q, MR479QA and MR481QA.Section 1 Engine Inspection1. Check the engine oil
(1) Check the oil level.
(2) Start the engine, and reach warm-up temperature.
(3) Shut the engine down, wait for 3-5min, and check the oil level.
(4) Check whether the oil level is in within the range marked by the scale; if it is lower than the limit (mark
L), fill oil to mark F.
(5) Keep the oil clean without any coolant or petrol mixed in and with appropriate viscosity.
2. Change oil.
(1) Start the engine. When normal temperature is reached, shut down the engine.
(2) Open the oil cap, remove the oil drain plug, and drain the oil.
(3) Tighten the oil drain plug to a specified torque 54N.m.
(4) Fill fresh oil into the crank case with oil quantity 2.8L in case of the filter not changed, 3.0L in case of the
filter changed and 3.5L in case of the dry filter.
(5) Fit on the oil filling cap.
(6) Start the engine.
(7) Shut down the engine and check the oil quantity, and fill oil to the mark F on the oil scale if necessary.
3. Replace the oil filter.
(1) Remove the oil filter.
(2) Before mounting the oil filter, apply a small quantity of engine oil to the O-ring of the new oil filter.
(3) Tight the oil filter to a specified torque (12.7N.m).
(4) Start the engine, and check whether there is any leakage
(5) Shut down the engine, check the oil quantity and fill as required.
4. Oil selection
Oil over PAI SG grade is preferred.
SAE10W-30 or SAE10W-40 is preferred, and ASE5W-30 is used in cold region in the winter.
Note: For the best effect and the greatest safety, it is advisable to use the following lubrication oil.
a. Meet the requirements of API level.
b. Select proper SAE viscosity rating within expected ambient temperature.
The lubrication oil that can not meet the requirements of SAE viscosity and API label at the same time is not
allowed.
5. Check the coolant.
(1) After the engine is cooled down, remove the radiator cover.EngineEngine Assembly3-1 -

2. Incorrect valve gap.
3. Suction and exhaust valve leak.
4. Cylinder leaks.
1. Vacuum leaks.
PCV pipe . manifold;
Idle speed control valve;
Brake booster pipeline.
2. Spark lacks since the mixed gas is too thin.
1. Air filter is blocked.
2. PCV valve is blocked.
3. EFI system fails.
ECU fails.
Pressure regulator of fuel oil is out of order.
Water temperature sensor does not work.
Suction pressure/temperature sensor fails.
Injector fails.
The throttle position sensor fails.3. Discharge the coolant completely.
4. Remove the air filter assembly with hose (see Figure 1-5).
(1) Disconnect the joint of the temperature sensor and the wire
plug.
(2) Disconnect the vent duct from the hose of the air filter.
(3) Release the wire clip bolt on the air filter.
(4) Disconnect the hose of the air filter from the throttle body.
(5) Remove 3 bolts and the air filter assemblies.
5. Remove the battery.
6. Remove the fuel pipe sub-assembly.
7. Disconnect the water pipe; disconnect the water outlet pipe of the

2. Check the engine coolant quantity in the compensating tank.
The coolant level should be between LOW and FULL.
3. Check the coolant quality.
(1) Remove the radiator cover.
Do not remove the radiator cover when the engine and the radiator are still hot in order to avoid scalding
since the liquid vapor may inject.
(2) Check whether there are excessive deposit and rust or sundries around the radiator cover. The coolant is
not allowed to contact with oil.
(3) Remount the radiator cover.Chapter 5 Cooling SystemSection 1 System Inspection1. Check leakage in the cooling system (see Figure 5-1).
(1) Fill coolant in the radiator, and mount the tester at the radiator
cover port.
(2) Start the engine.
(3) Keep the pump pressure at 118KPa without drop. If the
pressure drops,check whether there is any leakage at the port,
radiator and water pump; if not, check the heating core,
cylinder and cap.Figure 5-1
Figure 5-2
Figure 5-3 Figure 5-4 (4) When the thermostat is at low temperature (lower than 77°C), the valve should close completely.Cooling SystemSystem Inspection3-224. Thermostat
Notes:
The temperature indicated on the thermostat is marked as open
temperature of the valve (see Figure 5-2).
(1) Submerge the thermostat into water and heat gradually.
(2) Check the open temperature of the valve.
Open temperature of the valve: 80-84°C
(3) Check the lift of the valve (see Figure 5-3 and Figure 5-4).
Lift of the valve: 8mm or more at 95°CTester of radiator cap
8.0mm or more -

9. Put shift lever to "N" position, meanwhile, adjust the shift fork in
neutral position. Connect shift cable with bracket and fix by fastening
bolt. The tightening torque is 6.9~13.7 N.m (See figure 7-6).
10. Connect neutral switch connector.
11. Install odometer sensor (connect the sensor with the actuator of
odometer in the transmission)Figure 7-712. Fill in ATF.
"ATF " is the oil only for automatic transmission, its grade is DEXRONII or DEXRONIII. First, take
dipstick out of automatic transmission and fill in 3 liter ATF from dipstick pipe. Put select lever to "P" position
and start engine until AT temperature is up to 80°C, and then put select lever in "P" "R" "N" "D"
"2" "L" and "L" "2" "D" "N" "R" "P" step by step. Insert and take out dipstick,
wipe out the liquid in the dipstick. Repeat above-mentioned procedure without wiping to check oil level by
dipstick. If oil level is between the third and fourth hole in the dipstick, the level is normal. Filling in oil is over
and Insert dipstick tightly.
13. Wipe ATF in the A/T surface when filling.
