How to Check the Engine Oil Level on a Smart Fortwo?

Model: Smart Smart 453 - Years 2014-2022
Part: Checks and maintenance

In this brief and simple guide, we will go through the steps to check the engine oil level and top it up if necessary on a Smart Fortwo. First, open the rear hatch of the boot and start removing the engine cover panel; then lift the oil dipstick and clean it with a cloth. At this point, reinsert the dipstick and check that the oil level is at the maximum mark; if not, you will need to top it up or directly replace the engine oil, pouring in the correct amount!
