2.4L L4 Engine
Check the oil here if you have a 2.4L engine. The dipstick's
handle will be a yellow ring. See ªEngine Compartment
Overviewº in the Index for more information on location.
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.
Pull out the dipstick and clean it with a paper towel or
cloth, then push it back in all the way. Remove it again,
keeping the tip down, and check the level.
When to Add Engine Oil
If the oil is at or below the ADD 1 QT. mark, then you'll
need to add at least one quart of oil. But you must use the
right kind. This part explains what kind of oil to use. For
crankcase capacity, see ªCapacities and Specificationsº in
the Index.
