To check the engine oil in your Ford Kuga, simply locate the dipstick - it is usually yellow or orange in color and has a looped handle. Remove the dipstick and wipe it clean with a rag. Reinsert the dipstick all the way back in, then pull it back out and check the oil level. Ideally, the oil should be between the 'full' and 'low' marks on the dipstick. If it is below the 'low' mark, you will need to add more oil as needed.

When checking the oil level in your Ford Kuga, make sure the car has been parked on level ground for an accurate reading. Also, be sure to check the oil level when the engine is cold, as checking it when the engine is hot can result in an inaccurate reading.

To maintain optimal engine performance, it is important to regularly check and change your oil. For a Ford Kuga, the recommended oil change interval is every 5,000 miles or 6 months - whichever comes first.
