Model: (Various brands) Various
Part: Engine oil

Checking the oil level on a vehicle is a very important procedure to know how to do independently, especially when the oil light comes on because knowing whether the quantity inside is good or not can save our engine. To check the oil level, we need to open the hood, wait for the engine and circuits to cool down, and unscrew the dipstick near the oil tank. Once the dipstick is pulled out, we clean and reinsert it. We remove it again and check that the oil level is not above the MAX mark or below the MIN mark.
