  Q: How to replace the oil pan on Chevrolet Tracker?

  A:

  Begin by raising your vehicle to work on replacing the Oil Pan. To remove the front Differential assembly off the chassis start by taking out four bolts and front skid plate (if present) of four-wheel drive vehicles. Move on to remove the Crankshaft Position Sensor bolt followed by the sensor. Install a drain pan under the Oil Pan to collect leaking fluid before unfastening the Drain Plug alongside its gasket for the oil to flow out. The flywheel cover and sixteen engine pan bolts and cylinder block twc Oil Pan nuts must be removed before proceeding. Drop the Oil Pan down after removing the strainer from the Oil Pump pickup and observe the steering rack during rotations to finally extract the pan from the automobile. The cleaning process involves both the engine Oil Pan interior and the Oil Pump strainer screen and both the engine Oil Pan mating surface and cylinder block mating surface. Sports a continuous stripe of gm p/n 12346240 silicone sealant (or equivalent) on the engine Oil Pan mating surface for installation. Install and fasten the engine Oil Pump pick-up strainer to the cylinder block while torquing bolts to 11 nm (97 inch lbs.). Use sixteen bolts and twc nuts to secure the engine Oil Pan to the cylinder block while following a torque setting of 11 nm (97 inch lbs.). Tighten the cover bolts on the flywheel to 10 nm (89 inch lbs.). After installation of the engine oil Drain Plug, technicians should reconstruct the Crankshaft Position Sensor before securing it with 11 nm (97 inch lbs.) torque. Four-wheel drive vehicles should have their front Differential assembly reinstalled to the chassis followed by mounting the front skid plate (if present) and tightening all four bolts to 55 nm (40 ft. Lbs.). After completion lower the vehicle and follow oil specifications for refill then perform an oil pressure check.

  Q: How to service and repair the oil pan on Chevrolet Tracker?

  A:

  Begin the Oil Pan service by removing the oil level indicator then securely raise your vehicle. Before starting front skid plate removal owners need to detach the front axle assembly from 4wd vehicles' chassis. Steel your attention on removing both the steering gear and draining the motor oil from the engine. First detach all 4 bolts and the right side engine block-to-transmission support bracket then remove the flywheel cover. Use extreme care to detach the 16 lower cylinder block bolts together with the 2 nuts while protecting the contact surface of the engine Oil Pan. Begin by removing the engine Oil Pan then uninstall the 3 bolts along with the oil pump strainer. Clean the interior of the engine Oil Pan alongside the oil pump strainer screen and both mating surfaces which connect the engine Oil Pan and lower cylinder block. Follow these installation steps: install new o-rings onto the oil pump then secure the strainer to the pump by tightening the strainer bolts to 11 nm (97 inch lbs.) before torquing the bracket bolt to 11 nm (97 inch lbs.). The installation requires silicon sealant (GM P/N 12345997 or equivalent) applied in a continuous bead across the engine Oil Pan mating surface followed by engine Oil Pan bolt-up with 16 bolts and 2 nuts reaching a torque of 11 nm (97 inch lbs.). Reinstall the flywheel cover, engine oil gasket, and Drain Plug. Apply torque to 35 nm (26 ft. Lbs.) when tightening the Drain Plug. When installing the right side engine block-to-transmission support bracket, tighten its bolts to 50 nm (37 ft. Lbs.). 4wd vehicle owners need to replace their front axle assembly before they must complete differential filling. The installation process requires the steering gear and front skid plate. Complete power steering bleeder steps. The process ends with installing the oil level indicator followed by vehicle lowering and engine oil filling to specified level and pressure checks and leak inspections and front toe-in adjustment.
