Notes:  
     
If large quantities of metal particles or other 
deposits (caused, for example, by partial 
seizure of the crankshaft or connecting rod 
bearings) are found in the engine oil when 
performing repairs, clean the oil passages 
thoroughly and replace the oil cooler in order to 
prevent further damage from occurring later. 
     Always replace O-rings, gaskets and oil seals 
when performing repairs. 
     The oil level must not be above the max. mark - 
otherwise this can cause damage to the 
catalytic converter. Markings   Page 17
