Range Rover Evoque: Oil check preparation
Prior to checking the oil level ensure that:
- The vehicle is on level ground.
- The engine oil is cold.
Note: If it is necessary to check the oil level
when the engine is hot, switch off the engine
and let the vehicle stand for 5 minutes to allow
the oil to drain back into the sump. Do not start
the engine.
The oil level can then be checked as follows:
1. Withdraw the dipstick and wipe the blade
clean with a lint free cloth.
2. Fully re-insert the dipstick and withdraw
again to check the oil level.
As a general guide, if the oil level on the
dipstick:
- Is nearer to the upper mark or notch than
the lower, do not add oil.
- Is nearer to the lower mark or notch than
the upper, add 0.5 litre (1 pint) of oil.
- Is below the lower mark or notch, add for
the diesel engine, 1.5 litre (2.6 pints) of oil
and for the petrol engine, 0.8 litre (1.4
pints) of oil. Re-check the level after a
further 5 minutes.
