ENGINE OIL CHECK - 3.0L Engine

WARNING: This page is about a different car, the 2014 Mitsubishi Outlander. However, it is still accessible from the selected car via links, so may be relevant.
  1. Pull out the engine oil level gauge, clean off the engine oil on the engine oil level gauge, and then reinsert the engine oil level gauge.
  2. Pull out the engine oil level gauge, and check the engine oil level is within the marks on one side of the engine oil level gauge (engine cover side).
    NOTE:
    • Checking the oil might be difficult shortly after stopping the engine or engine oil change.
    • If difficult, take some time (approx. 30 sec.) and try again.
    • Refer to the information label indicating the engine oil check process on the rocker cover.
  3. Check that the engine oil is not excessively dirty, that there is no coolant or gasoline mixed in, and that it is sufficiently thick and slippery.
