2) How it Works at High Speed

In a high speed zone, the amount of exhaust gas increases and it is accompanied with a great force. 

Therefore, if the inner diameter of venturi is more widened, the turbine in the turbocharger by the 

releasing force of abundant exhaust gas can deliver a more increased energy to the compressor. The 

output will increase in submission to the increase of intake air volume.

1. SPECIFICATION

The engine oil filter element should be changed at the same time with the engine oil.

Regularly check the engine oil level and add the engine oil if necessary.
Remember to check the engine oil level and shorten the cycle to replace the engine oil under 
severe driving conditions.

-

Severe Driving Condition

Frequent stop-and-go traffic, extended idling, short driving distance below 6 km, driving distance 
below 16 km when the outside temperature remains below freezing
Driving in a hilly or mountainous terrain, sandy, or dusty area
High load driving such as trailer towing
Taxi, patrol service or delivery service (extended idling and excessive driving with low speed)

2. MAINTENANCE

1) Level Check

Park the vehicle on a level ground and apply the parking brake. Stop the engine and wait more than 5 

minutes.

Pull out the dipstick and wipe it with a clean cloth. Reinsert it all the way.

Pull out it again and check the oil level.

The oil level should be between the maximum (Max) mark and minimum (Min) mark on the oil 

dipstick. Oil should be replenished before the level goes below the minimum mark.

-

-

-

Operating vehicle with insufficient amount of oil can damage the engine. Make sure the engine oil 

level is correct and add oil if necessary.

2) Replenishment

If the level gets to the lower point, open the filler cap on top of the cylinder block and add the genuine 

oil without exceeding the level of the upper mark.

Recheck the oil level after 5 minutes.

Regularly check the engine oil level and add Ssangyong genuine engine oil if necessary.

Clean the dipstick with clean cloth so that any foreign materials cannot get into the engine.

The oil should not go above the upper mark on the dipstick.

The engine oil may be consumed more if the engine is new.

1. SYSTEM DESCRIPTION

1) Overview

The lubrication system supplies oil to each lubrication section to prevent friction and wear and to 

remove heat from the friction part. As the engine runs, frictional heat is generated on each lubrication 

section. If this condition persists, the bearing can be burned and stuck. 

In other words, it creates an oil film on each sliding surface to convert solid friction to liquid friction in 

order to minimize wear and prevent temperature increasing on the friction part.

For the D20DTF engine with no oil pressure switch, the engine ECU receives the low engine oil level 

signal from the oil level sensor and communicates with the instrument cluster through the CAN 

communication to turn on the warning lamp.
