The engine oil filter has the function of removing the dirt, dust and other impurities
mixed into the engine oil. The engine filter has a significant impact on the
performance and service life of the engine, so use of the "Isuzu genuine parts" is
recommended.
ADVICE
•
When replacing the engine oil filter, it is recommended to use an Isuzu
genuine oil filter. When another type of oil filter is used, it may cause a failure.
•
Replace the oil filter at the same time as replacing the engine oil.
•
Disposal and treatment of the drained oil and oil filter must be conducted in
accordance with the specified procedure.
ADVICE

When installing the oil filter, make sure that the gasket does not get caught at
the rim. This could cause oil leakage.

Any dirt on the oil drain plug should be wiped off before installing it.
•
Do not perform abrupt engine idling, which may cause an engine failure.
•
After replacement is completed, test run the engine and confirm that there is
no oil leakage from the area around the filter.
