Oil Pan Installation (AWD)

Procedure

1. Ensure proper use of room temperature vulcanizing (RTV) sealant. Use of Room Temperature Vulcanizing (RTV) and Anaerobic Sealant 
NOTE:
• All sealing surfaces must be free of contamination prior to applying the sealer.
• Installation and final torque specification must be completed within 10 minutes of applying the sealant.
• Additional sealant is necessary to reduce the possibility of leakage where the cylinder head to engine block interface along the bead path flange on the front cover.
2. Apply a 3 mm bead of sealer around the perimeter of the oil pan. Refer to Adhesives, Fluids, Lubricants, and Sealers .
3. Install the oil pan on the lower crankcase, ensure the oil pan locating pins align with the lower crankcase.

Procedure

1. Apply sealant to the oil pan bolts. Refer to Adhesives, Fluids, Lubricants, and Sealers .
2. Hand start the oil pan bolts. Torque to specification when all oil pan bolts are installed hand-tight.

Procedure

1. Apply sealant to the oil pan bolts. Refer to Adhesives, Fluids, Lubricants, and Sealers .
2. Tighten all the oil pan bolts in sequence.
3. Inspect for excessive sealer around the oil filter mounting area when final torque is achieved. If extra sealer is present, remove and clean accordingly.

Procedure

1. Connect the oil pump control valve wiring harness connector.
2. Use a NEW lower oil pan.
3. Ensure proper use of room temperature vulcanizing (RTV) sealant. Use of Room Temperature Vulcanizing (RTV) and Anaerobic Sealant 
NOTE:
• All sealing surfaces must be free of contamination prior to applying the sealer.
• Installation and final torque specification must be completed within 10 minutes of applying the sealant.
4. Apply a 5 mm bead of sealer around the perimeter of the lower oil pan. Refer to Adhesives, Fluids, Lubricants, and Sealers .
5. Install the lower oil pan on the upper oil pan, ensure the oil pan locating pins align with the lower oil pan.
