- Join me for some basic service items on a Suzuki Carry kei truck. This is a 2004 Suzuki Carry 4WD kei truck, recently imported from Japan. It has a 657 cc 3 cylinder petrol engine and a 5 speed manual transmission. The model code is DA63T.
The video shows changing the engine oil and oil filter, air filter and spark plugs.
This basic service is one of the first things I do after a new vehicle has arrived from Japan. During the auction and shipping process there is quite a lot of start stop driving with very little opportunity for the engine to warm up. This isn't very good for the engine oil and it's hard on the battery too.
I start by draining the engine oil (17 mm drain plug), to give it as long as possible to drain. I do this with the engine slightly warm, which also helps the draining process.
With the oil draining I moved on to removing the oil filter.
Next it was the air filter. This just required undoing 4 spring clips, lifting the top off the air box and then swapping the filter.
For the spark plugs (there are 3) I removed the plastic cover (4 x 8 mm bolts), then disconnected and removed the coil packs (10 mm bolts). At this point the spark plugs could be removed. I set the gap to 0.8-0.9 mm as specified, put a small amount of fresh engine oil on the threads, then installed the new plugs, tightening them ~1/4 turn after the spark plug seat had contacted the cylinder head.
With these things done it was time to replace the oil drain plug, fit a new oil filter and refill the engine oil. The engine takes 3 litres of oil. I used a fully synthetic 5w30 and put 2.8 litres in to start with, then started the engine to check for leaks. After the engine had been stopped for a little while, I topped up to the full mark on the dipstick.
I worked on the truck whilst it was raised up off the ground on axle / jack stands. However I think the things I did in this video could be done with the truck on the ground. The oil and filter change might be a little more fiddly.
Tools required
8 mm, 10 mm, 17 mm sockets and drivers
Oil filter removal tool, unless you've got a very strong grip!
Container to catch the oil
Spark plug socket
Something to measure the spark plug gap - feeler gauges or specific tool
Measuring jug and funnel for the oil

مرحبا اخي انا امتلك مثل هذة السيارة في جمهورية مصر العربية واريد شحن مجموعة مواسير مياة التبريد بالكامل لانها ليست موجودة في بلدي هل من الممكن انا تساعدني في الحصول عليها
I notice the Emissions Control Canister next to the air box. Have you done any of these before? I'm coming up on 100k.
Another fantastic tutorial, great work
I don't suppose you have any of the part numbers for the oil filter, air filter and spark plugs? I get the feeling my local motor factors won't be able to do anything as the registration number will not be on their system.
As a little hint, when working under the drivers seat, once you have the base lifted above the steering wheel, if you roll the seat as far forward as you can, it allows you to lift it much higher and give much better access, I hope that helps you out.
Thanks for the hint about the seat!
Details of the spark plugs are on a sticker on the passenger side sill / B pillar.
I used a Mahle OC215 oil filter.
The air filter is Suzuki part number 13780-77A00
What size is the oil filter socket, please? :)
Andrew, how many kms your kei truck used from Japan and also why replace the sparkplug if still ok?
This one had done 55,000 km. The plugs weren't the worst I've seen, but I thought they were worn enough to warrant replacement.
