When to Add Engine Oil
If the oil is below the indent at the tip of the dipstick,
you will 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, see
Capacities and Specications on page 5-96.
Notice:Do not add too much oil. If your engine has
so much oil that the oil level gets above the upper
hole, your engine could be damaged.SeeEngine Compartment Overview on page 5-12for
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. 1.8L L4 (VIN Code 8) Engine
