ENGINE OIL

OIL PRESSURE CHECK

WARNING:

• Be careful not to get burn yourself, as engine oil may be hot.
• Oil pressure check should be done in “Neutral position” (M/T models) or “Parking position” (A/T

models).

1.

Check the engine oil level. Refer to 

LU-7, "Inspection"

.

2.

Remove engine undercover with power tool.

3.

Disconnect harness connector at oil pressure switch, and
remove oil pressure switch using deep socket (commercial ser-
vice tool).

CAUTION:

Do not drop or shock oil pressure switch.

4.

Install the oil pressure gauge [SST: ST25051001 (J25695-1)] (A)
and hose [SST: ST25052000 (J25695-2)] (B).

5.

Start the engine and warm it up to normal operating temperature.

6.

Check the engine oil pressure with engine running under no-load.
NOTE:
When the engine oil temperature is low, the engine oil pressure becomes high.

If difference is extreme, check engine oil passage and oil pump for engine oil leaks.

7.

After the inspections, install oil pressure switch as follows:

a.

Remove old liquid gasket adhering to oil pressure switch and the mating surface.

b.

Apply liquid gasket and tighten oil pressure switch to the specification.
Use Genuine RTV Silicone Sealant or equivalent. Refer to 

GI-15, "Recommended Chemical Prod-

ucts and Sealants"

WARNING:

• Be careful not to get burn yourself, as engine oil may be hot.
• Prolonged and repeated contact with used engine oil may cause skin cancer. Try to avoid direct skin

contact with used engine oil. If skin contact is made, wash thoroughly with soap or hand cleaner as
soon as possible. 

1.

Warm up the engine, and check for engine oil leakage from engine components. Refer to 

LU-7, "Inspec-

tion"

.

2.

Stop the engine and wait for 10 minutes.

3.

Loosen oil filler cap.

4.

Refilling

INFOID:0000000000956312

1.

Install drain plug with new washer. Refer to 

EM-41, "Exploded View (2WD)"

 or 

EM-41, "Exploded View

(AWD)"

.

CAUTION:

Be sure to clean drain plug and install with new washer.

2.

Refill with new engine oil.
Engine oil specification and viscosity: Refer to 

LU-9, "Refilling"

CAUTION:

• When filling engine oil, do not pull out oil level gauge.
• The refill capacity depends on the engine oil temperature and drain time. Use these specifica-

tions for reference only.

• Always use oil level gauge to determine the proper amount of engine oil in engine.

3.

Warm up the engine and check area around drain plug and oil filter for engine oil leakage.

4.

Stop the engine and wait for 10 minutes.

5.

Check the engine oil level. Refer to 

LU-7, "Inspection"

.
