1. Place the vehicle on a flat surface. The oil level should be checked before the trip or, or after at least 5 minutes after stopping the engine. If the check immediately after the trip, the possibility of significant error due to the fact that some of the oil is on the walls of the housing and on the details of the checkpoint. For convenience zaedte the observation pit, pier or park the vehicle on the stand, checking that the car is horizontal. |
2. Wipe dry sump near the filler (and also control) of the opening, which is in front of the checkpoint. Remove the stopper and clean. |
3. The oil level should reach the lower edge of the filler hole. A small amount of oil will be collected for the wide end and removing it spilled. However, a trickle at reversing the plug is not an indication of the normal level of oil. |
| 4. To make sure that the oil level is normal, to wait until the leaking oil in a thin stream, then add oil until a trickle of oil will not appear again. The oil level will correspond to normal when the flow of oil out of the hole stopped. Top up only with fresh oil of the recommended type. |
5. It is necessary to wait a long time that the oil level has reached its real mark. If the test level implies a large amount of oil that needs to be plugged, then tighten the plug and take a short trip. When driving the oil penetrates into all the details, evenly distributed over the internal volume of the PPC. After a trip to recheck the level previously waited so that the oil is completely glass with details of the checkpoint. |
6. If the oil level exceeds the norm in PPC and the oil begins to flow immediately after loosening the plug, check the horizontal position of the car (in the longitudinal and transverse directions). If necessary, add an excessive amount of oil, which when aligned in the car drain capacity outstretched. |
7. If the level is normal, then tighten the plug and tighten with the set moment. |
