No because it will read low and when you add oil to make up for the lower reading you will have to much oil. Also these days the place you add oil is directly over the valve lifters and if you pour oil on top of this moving lifter you are going to get it throw back at you and make a mess of your engine valve cover.
no you check your oil with car off easier when car is cooled off
Check the oil level periodically and top up as necessary.
on some cars it means it has a bad oil pressure sensor
Check engine oil when you have just finished driving. Check Transmission fluid when the car is running and the transmission in in N (manual) or P (automatic).
No, check it after the engine has not been running for at least 15 minutes.
All vehicles have to be running in park and warm before getting a correct reading of the trans. fluid.
You may get splashed with hot oil and get burned if you add oil with the car running, why don't you just turn the car off and add it??
It doesn't have one. to check the oil, the car has an electronic oil indicator viewable on the bottom of the tachometer when sitting in the drivers seat with the engine running.
you have to jack the car up as its running, run it threw the gears, then with the car still running there is a plug similar to the one used to drain oil, unscrew it if fluid comes out its full.
yes
Your oil level is very low. It may show on the stick when it is running because it is getting splashed/sprayed there.Your oil level is very low. It may show on the stick when it is running because it is getting splashed/sprayed there.
No. Check the oil while it is off. If you attempt to check while running, you will make a mess. If you do not make a mess, you are probably low on oil.
