3.2 B - ENGINE SYSTEMS
3.2.1 COOLING SYSTEM
The car is equipped with two water radiators, one water/oil heat exchanger for the engine oil and a separate
transmission cooling system with a single radiator. A mechanically driven water pump generates the circulation
for the engine coolant.
The coolant capacity is approximately 14L including a maximum of 1.0L of Coolant concentrate, with the level
set by bleeding the system.
While adding coolant mixture to the Header tank, bleed air firstly from the disconnected fitting at the top of the
LH radiator.
Once air has finished escaping from the top of the LH radiator reconnect the fitting and then bleed air from the
disconnected fitting at the top of the RH radiator.
Once air has finished escaping from the top of the RH radiator, reconnect the fitting and continue filling the
system until the header tank/swirl pot is approximately ¾ full when engine is cold.
The maximum coolant temperature must not exceed 100oC.
3.2.2 OIL SYSTEM
The engine has a dry sump oil system with the oil tank located in the bell housing between the engine and the
transmission. The oil level must be checked using Dipstick Part# GRM-AW0470-00 and the oil level maintained
between the minimum and maximum indicators on the dipstick. The oil capacity at the maximum indicator
mark is approximately 8.0L. Oil level must be kept above the minimum mark.
