Kia Carnival (2009+). Manual — part 32

ENGINE OIL

1. Check the engine oil quality.

Check the oil deterioration, entry of water, discoloring of thinning.
If the quality is visibly poor, replace the oil.

2. Check the engine oil level.

After warning up the engine and then 5 minutes after the engine stop, oil level should be between the “L” and “F”
marks in the dipstick.
If low, check for leakage and add oil up to the “F” mark.

Do not fill with engine oil above the “F” mark.

SELECTION OF ENGINE OIL

Recommended API classification : CH- 4 OR ABOVE(5W-30)
Recommended SAE viscosity grades :

For best performance and maximum protection of all types of operation, select only those lubricants which :

• Satisfy the requirement of the API classification.
• Have proper SAE grade number for expected ambient temperature range.

Lubricants that do not have both an SAE grade number and API service classification on the container should not
be used.

be used.

REASSEMBLY

RELIEF PLUNGER

1. Install the relief plunger.

Install relief plunger and spring into the front case hole, and install the plug(A).

Tightening torque :
32.4~42.2Nm (3.3~4.3kgf.m, 23.9~31.1lb-ft)

INSTALLATION

OIL PUMP

1. Install the oil screen and new gasket.

Tightening torque :
15.7~22.6Nm (1.6~2.3kgf.m, 11.6~16.6lb-ft)

2. Install the ladde frame(A), oil pump assembly(B) with the bolts(C,D,E).

Tightening torque :
Bolts(C): 31.4~46.1Nm (3.2~4.7kgf.m, 23.1~34.0lb-ft)
Bolts(D): 15.7~22.6Nm (1.6~2.3kgf.m, 11.6~16.6lb-ft)
Bolts(E): 31.4~46.1Nm (3.2~4.7kgf.m, 23.1~34.0lb-ft)

Align the timing marks on the crankshaft sprocket(A), idler(B) and balancer sprocket(C).

3. Install the oil supply pipe(A), ladde frame bracket(B) with the bolts(C,D).

Tightening torque:
15.7~22.6Nm (1.6~2.3kgf.m, 11.6~16.6lb-ft)

4. Install the oil pan.

5. Fill with engine oil.

OIL PAN

1. Install the oil pan.

(1) Using a razor blade and gasket scraper, remove all the old packing material from the gasket surfaces.

Check that the mating surfaces are clean and dry before applying liquid gasket.

(2) Apply liquid gasket as an even bead, centered between the edges of the mating surface.

Liquid gasket: LOCTITE 5900 or equivalent

• To prevent leakage of oil, apply liquid gasket to the inner threads of the bolt holes.
• Do not install the parts if five minutes or more have elapsed since applying the liquid gasket.

Instead, reapply liquid gasket after removing the residue.

• After assembly, wait at least 30 minutes before filling the engine with oil.

(3) Install the oil pan(A) with the bolts.

Uniformly tighten the bolts in several passes.

Tightening torque :
15.7~22.6Nm (1.6~2.3kgf.m, 11.6~16.6lb-ft)

2. Install the plate(A) between the engine and the transaxle assembly.

Tightening torque :
15.7~22.6Nm (1.6~2.3kgf.m, 11.6~16.6lb-ft)

3. Install the RH, LH sub frame mounting bolts(A,B).

Tightening torque :
156.9~176.5Nm (16.0~18.0kgf.m, 115.7~130.2lb-ft)
44.1~58.8Nm (4.5~6.0kgf.m, 32.5~43.4lb-ft)
