Besides fuel, it’s probably the most important fluid in your vehicle. Motor oil lubricates engine components and keeps everything going smoothly. It’s a good idea to check it once a month, or more often if you suspect a leak or another issue. Your vehicle’s manufacturer will specify the recommended oil weight and oil change service interval for your vehicle. Make sure your vehicle is turned off and sitting on level ground. Let it sit for at least thirty seconds before checking the oil level. Most vehicles have a dipstick under the hood that you’ll use to check the level of the oil. Once you find the dipstick, slide it out and wipe the excess oil off the end with a shop towel. You should see markings or other indicators on the dipstick for minimum and maximum oil levels. After wiping off the excess oil, reinsert the dipstick all the way, then pull it back out to see what the oil level is. The oil should be reading close to the maximum marking. If it’s a little low, add oil carefully to top it off. A funnel is helpful when you’re doing this. Make sure you’re adding where the oil fill cap is removed, not the dipstick tube. Add a few ounces at a time, and re-check it to make sure you don’t overfill it. If your level is at or below the minimum mark, it’s important to add oil immediately. This could be an indication that your vehicle is leaking or burning oil—you should seek the help of a professional to prevent further damage. Also, take note of the texture and color of the oil. Get some between your fingers. It should be slick and smooth, in a yellow or amber color. Grittiness or particles in the oil can indicate that components are wearing down, which is a major issue. If you notice a milky color, check to see if there’s any condensation on the inside of the cap. If there is, it could be an indication of moisture that hasn’t been burned off. But it could also mean that coolant is leaking into the engine oil, which is a more serious situation. Other indications of this can be brownish coloration in the coolant reservoir or white smoke from the exhaust. If any of those symptoms are present, you should have your vehicle towed to a shop to avoid damage to your engine. [Coolant] An engine produces a lot of heat, and your coolant—also known as antifreeze—is what keeps things cool. It does this by absorbing engine heat and allowing it to dissipate through the radiator, which keeps your vehicle from overheating. It’s recommended you check your coolant level with each oil change [link to coolant flush & fill video]. Always wait for your engine to cool completely before checking coolant. Two to three hours is safe if you’ve been driving. **View full video for complete instructions** |
