I recently purchased a Ford Kuga and I want to make sure I am properly maintaining it. Can anyone provide me with step-by-step instructions on how to check the engine oil level? I want to make sure I am doing it correctly and not causing any damage to the engine.
ReplyHi Alex, checking the engine oil level in a Ford Kuga is actually quite simple. First, make sure the car is parked on a flat surface and the engine is turned off. Locate the dipstick under the hood and pull it out. Wipe it clean with a cloth and then re-insert it back into the tube. Pull it out again and check the oil level against the markings on the dipstick. If the level is below the minimum mark, you will need to add more oil. I recommend consulting your vehicle's manual for the right type and amount of oil to use.
Hey Alex, checking the engine oil level in your Ford Kuga is an important part of regular maintenance. As John mentioned, start by parking on a flat surface and turning off the engine. Wipe the dipstick clean, and then re-insert and pull it out again to get an accurate reading. It's also a good idea to check the oil color and consistency while you're at it. If it's dark and gritty, it may be time for an oil change.
