3400 V6 Engine
The engine oil dipstick handle is yellow. The dipstick on
the 2.4L L4 engine is located at the rear of the engine.
The dipstick on the 3400 V6 engine is located on the
front of the engine, behind the fan.
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.
Checking Engine Oil
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 line, 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
