Oil Grade	Oil Viscosity (SAE)
G-DLD1, API CF-4, CF or ACEA B1 (You may also use API CE or CD)	- 5W-30 - 10W-30 - 15W-40 - 20W-50

Standard Capacity:

Item	Specified Condition
Drain and refill without oil filter change	6.7 liters (7.1 US qts, 5.9 Imp. qts)
Drain and refill with oil filter change	7.0 liters (7.4 US qts, 6.2 Imp. qts)
Dry fill	7.5 liters (7.9 US qts, 6.6 Imp. qts)

Install the oil filler cap.

Start the engine. Make sure that there are no oil leaks from the areas that were worked on.

Warm up the engine, stop the engine and wait 5 minutes. The engine oil level should be between the dipstick low level mark and full level mark.
If low, check for leakage and add oil up to the full level mark.

NOTICE:

Do not fill engine oil above the full level mark.

HINT:

A certain amount of engine oil will be consumed while driving. In the following situations, engine oil consumption may increase, and engine oil may need to be refilled in between oil maintenance intervals.

1. When the engine is new, for example directly after purchasing the vehicle or after replacing the engine.
   
2. If low quality engine oil or oil of an inappropriate viscosity is used.
   
3. When driving at high engine speed or with a heavy load, when towing, or when driving while accelerating or decelerating frequently.
   
4. When leaving the engine idling for a long time, or when driving frequently through heavy traffic.
   

Install the rear engine under cover with the 4 bolts.
