When to Add Engine Oil (Except Z06)
If the oil is below the cross-hatched area at the
tip of the dipstick, you need to add at least
one quart/liter of oil. But you must use the right
kind. This section explains what kind of oil to use.
For engine oil crankcase capacity, seeCapacities
and Specications on page 426.
SeeRacing or Other Competitive Driving on
page 292for additional information on engine oil.
Notice:Do not add too much oil. If the
engine has so much oil that the oil level
gets above the cross-hatched area that
shows the proper operating range, the
engine could be damaged.SeeEngine
Compartment Overview
on page 330for
the location of the
engine oil ll cap.
Be sure to add enough oil to put the level
somewhere in the proper operating range.
Push the dipstick all the way back in when
you are through.

Changing Engine Oil and Filter
(Z06 Only)
Z06 models have a racetrack-ready dry sump
engine lubrication system. This high-performance
system operates differently than a standard
engine lubrication system and requires a special
procedure when changing the engine oil and lter.
Follow this procedure closely when changing
the engine oil and lter.
