Engine Oil (Gasoline Engine)
If your vehicle has a diesel engine, see “Engine Oil
(Diesel Engine)” in the Diesel Engine Supplement.
If the CHECK ENG OIL
LEVEL light on the
instrument panel comes on,
it means you need to check
your engine oil level
right away.
For more information, see “CHECK ENG OIL LEVEL”
in the Index. You should check your engine oil level
regularly; this is an added reminder.
It’s a good idea to check your engine oil every time you
get fuel. In order to get an accurate reading, the oil must
be warm and the vehicle must be on level ground.
The engine oil dipstick has
a yellow ring handle and is
located on the passenger’s
side of the engine.
Turn off the engine and give the oil several minutes to
drain back into the oil pan. If you don’t, the oil dipstick
might not show the actual level.
