If the message ENGINE OIL PRESSURE
LOW is displayed, stop the engine as
soon as it is safe to do so and seek
qualified assistance. Do not start the
engine until the cause has been
rectified.
1. Engine oil dipstick - 2.0L petrol engine.
2. Engine oil dipstick - 2.2L diesel engine.
Prior to checking the oil level make sure 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:
1. Is nearer to the upper mark or notch than
the lower, do not add oil.
2. Is nearer to the lower mark or notch than
the upper, add 0.5 litre (1 pint) of oil.
3. 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.
TOPPING UP THE OIL
Your vehicle warranty may be
invalidated if damage is caused by
using oil that does not meet the
required specification.
Failure to use an oil that meets the
required specification could cause
excessive engine wear, a build up of
sludge and deposits, and increase
pollution. It could also lead to engine
failure. See 252, LUBRICANTS AND
FLUIDS.
Overfilling with oil could result in severe
engine damage. Oil should be added in
small quantities and the level
re-checked to make sure the engine is
not overfilled.
1. Remove the oil filler cap.
2. Add oil to maintain the level between the
MIN and MAX marks or notches on the
dipstick.
It is essential to use the correct
specification oil and to make sure
the oil is suitable for the climatic
conditions in which the vehicle is to
be operated.
