How to check the liquid levels on the Dacia Sandero

Model: Dacia Sandero BS - Years 2008-2012
Part: Engine oil

The holidays have begun and you have already planned a road trip but you forgot to have the fluids checked at the garage. Don't worry, today we will explain how to do this on your own on a Dacia Sandero vehicle. To check the oil level in the tank, we need to park the car and remove the oil dipstick cap, clean the dipstick and reinsert it. Check the oil level, which should be halfway between the MAX and MIN marks. If the level is low, you need to top up the oil by pouring it into the engine oil tank. To check the coolant, windshield washer fluid, and brake fluid levels in the tank, simply look at the reservoir, which is transparent and allows you to see at a glance if the level is low or normal. If it is low, just open the cap and pour in the corresponding fluid.
