. Never over tighten the oil filter
because that can result in an oil leak.
. Thoroughly wipe off any engine
oil that has spilled over the
exhaust pipe and/or under-cover.
If left unremoved, the oil could
catch fire.
11. Reinstall the cover under the oil filter.
12. Pour engine oil through the filler neck. Oil capacity (guideline): 2.5 L models: 4.2 US qt (4.0 liters, 3.5 Imp qt)
3.0 L models: 5.8 US qt (5.5 liters, 4.8 Imp qt)
The oil quantity indicated above is only a
guideline. The necessary quantity of oil
depends on the quantity of oil that has
been drained. The quantity of drained oil
differs slightly depending on the tempera-
ture of the oil and the time the oil is left
flowing out. After refilling the engine with
oil, therefore, you must use the level
gauge to confirm that the level is correct.
13. Start the engine and make sure that no
oil leaks appear around the filter ’s rubber seal and drain plug.
14. Keep the engine idling until the engine
reaches the normal operating temperature
range, as indicated by the temperature
gauge on the combination meter. After
that, check the engine oil level again. For
further details about the check procedure,
refer to
“Checking the oil level ”in this
section. & Recommended grade and viscosity
CAUTION
Use only engine oil with the recom-
mended grade and viscosity.
Oil grade: –ILSAC GF-4, which can be identified
with the ILSAC certification mark (Star-
burst mark) – or API classification SM with the words
“ ENERGY CONSERVING ”
