I check the oil in my cars every weekend, along with trans fluid, coolant, steering fluid and window washer fluid. I check brake fluid and tires daily.
You can check the motor oil or the transmission fluid.
no you check your oil with car off easier when car is cooled off
Check the oil after the engine has not been run for at least 30 minutes.
Whatever oil you buy for the car(check for recommended oil thickness)will do fine.
Check the oil level in the car.
If you car has been acting up, there are several things to check. Check the gas, the oil, and the transmission fluid.
oil will pour out. that's what the dipstick is for. Check it and if needed, drain some out.
It means low oil pressure. Or you have no pressure which means you may not have any oil in your car. STOP immediately, turn your car off. check oil to see if you have any.
Check the oil level with the engine off after it has not been run for 30 minutes. You will then get a very accurate reading.
Down on what? Engine oil, check the dipstick. Coolant, check the reservoir.
I would guess that it either needs oil, or at least an oil change. Do you ever check the oil? You should.
No, the check engine light has nothing to do with the oil level in the vehicle. The check engine light will come on when there is a problem with the emission system. The red oil warning light will come on if your vehicle is low on oil.
