Note. There is very little room to work on the removal of the engine oil pan, so it is necessary to lower the front axle beam.
Measurement of the angles of the front wheels at the end of work should not be carried out.
Removal of the upper part of the oil sump must be carried out in the following order.
Prepare fixtures «17.0.030», detach «–» terminal from AB, remove the decorative engine cover and the central part of the front end shield
Remove the fan motor, alternator drive belt, A/C compressor drive belt and soundproof cover.
Fix the engine with the tool «11.0.020». Unscrew the top nuts on the left and right engine mounts and remove the stiffening plate.
Remove the lower part of the oil sump and lower the front axle beam. Disconnect the power steering pump from the bracket. Leave the pipes connected. Take the pump aside and secure it to the body with a wire clamp.
Unlock and disconnect the hydraulic lines on the automatic transmission heat exchanger using the tool «17.0.030». Disconnect the hydraulic lines at the automatic transmission.
Disconnect the hydraulic line holder and remove the hydraulic lines.
Note. The installation location of the automatic transmission pipelines on the radiator is from the bottom left.
When the hydraulic lines are disconnected, gear oil will come out and must be collected and disposed of.
Open the cable box of the oxygen concentration sensors on the gearbox housing. Remove bolts (arrows, fig. 5.64) and remove the oil pan.
Remove bolts (arrows, fig. 5.65,) and remove the upper part of the oil pan.
The installation of the upper part of the oil sump should be carried out in the reverse order, if necessary.
Using a hardwood scraper, clean the sealing surfaces of any old gasket residue. Replace O-ring for oil dipstick guide tube.
Replace the seal and check that it is in the correct position. Install the oil sump. Insert all new oil pan bolts. Do not overtighten the fastening bolts, otherwise the tightness of the gasket is lost. Tighten oil sump bolts to torque:
- M6 (8.8) — 10 Nm (1.0 kgf·m);
- M6 (10.9) — 12 Nm (1.2 kgf·m).
Assemble the engine. Pour oil into the engine, check the oil level in the engine and power steering reservoir (see section «Exploitation»). Carry out a test drive and check the tightness of the oil pan. If necessary, slightly tighten the crankcase mounting bolts.
