The input shaft of the oil pump is driven from the front of the
crankshaft, by the auxiliary chain, at 0.87 engine speed.
The oil pump draws oil from the sump pan through a centrally mounted pick-up pipe. The oil is pressurized and pumped
through an output tube to the cylinder block. After passing through an anti-drain valve and a plate type oil cooler, the oil is
filtered by a replaceable cartridge installed on the front of the RH cylinder head. LUBRICATION SYSTEM

cooling jets and the timing chain lubrication jets.
The oil returns to the oil pan under gravity. Large drain holes through the cylinder heads and cylinder block ensure the rapid
return of the oil to the sump pan. System replenishment is through the oil filler cap on the LH cylinder head cover.
An oil evacuation tube is installed to allow oil to be drawn from the sump pan. The upper end of the oil evacuation tube is
located under the oil filler cap.
An oil drain plug is installed in the RH side of the sump pan.

Oil level monitoring is provided by an oil level and temperature sensor that measures the oil level in the sump pan. The oil
level can be displayed in the message center of the instrument cluster.
The oil level and temperature sensor supplies the ECM with a signal containing the level and temperature of the oil in the sump pan. The oil level and temperature sensor is secured to the bottom of the sump pan with three screws and sealed with a
gasket.
The oil level and temperature sensor sends an ultrasonic pulse vertically upward and measures the time taken for the pulse to
be reflected back from the top surface of the oil. This time is compared with the time taken for an ultrasonic pulse to travel a
reference distance within the oil level and temperature sensor to determine the oil level. The oil level reading is combined with
the oil temperature reading and transmitted in a PWM signal to the ECM.

Operating Temperature Range -40 to 160 °C (-40 to 320 °F) Oil Level Check
For additional information, refer to Engine Oil Draining and Filling (303-01A, General Procedures).
For accuracy, oil level checks should be performed with the vehicle on level ground when the oil is hot. The vehicle needs to
stand for approximately 10 minutes, after the engine is switched off, to allow the oil to drain back into the sump pan and the
oil level to stabilize. The oil level system will not give a reading until the oil level has stabilized.
With the ignition on, the engine stopped and the transmission in P (park), repeatedly press the trip button on the end of the
LH multifunction switch until the oil level icon and applicable message are displayed in the fuel gage/trip computer area of the message center, as shown below:
Item Description A Oil level is between 50% and 100% of recommended level. No top-up required. B Oil level is between 12.5% and 50% percent of recommended level. Add 0.5 liter (0.53 US quart) of oil. C Oil level is between 0% and 12.5% of recommended level. Add 1 liter (1.06 US quarts) of oil. D Oil level is above maximum for safe operation. Reduce oil level to recommended level. E Oil level is below minimum for safe operation. Add 1.5 liters (1.59 US quarts) of oil, then recheck level. F Oil level is stabilizing. Wait 10 minutes and then recheck level. If this display is accompanied by the message ENGINE OIL LEVEL MONITOR SYSTEM FAULT, a fault with the oil level monitoring system is indicated. System Fault Warning
If there is a fault with the system, in addition to being displayed during an oil level check, the message ENGINE OIL LEVEL
MONITOR SYSTEM FAULT will be temporarily displayed when the ignition is first switched on.

Engine - V8 S/C 5.0L Petrol - Engine Oil Draining and Filling
General Procedures
Draining Published: 11-May-2011
WARNING: The spilling of hot engine oil is unavoidable during this procedure, care must be taken to prevent scalding.
CAUTION: Correct installation of the oil filler cap can be obtained by tightening the cap until hard stop.
NOTE: Clean the components general area prior to dismantling.
1. CAUTION: Make sure the engine is warm.
Start the engine and allow to run for 10 minutes, stop the engine.
2.
3. Refer to: Engine Cover - V8 5.0L Petrol/V8 S/C 5.0L Petrol (501-05 Interior Trim and Ornamentation, Removal and Installation).
4.
Loosen the element cover 4 complete turns to allow
engine oil to drain from the filter cover.
Make sure that the O-ring seal is exposed.
5. NOTE: Allow 10 minutes for the engine oil to drain from the oil filter
housing. www.JagDocs.com
Page 872 of 3039
6. NOTE: Remove and discard the O-ring seal.
7. Remove and discard the oil filter element.
8. WARNING: Do not work on or under a vehicle supported only by a
