When it comes to self-maintenance and repair for your vehicle, there are simple tasks anyone can perform, even on luxury brands like Lincoln. If you need to check your engine oil levels, it is quick and easy with a few steps and here at Gene Messer Lincoln Lubbock, we're going to lay it all out for you.
- Lift up the hood and look for the dipstick, it's usually a different color and easy to spot
- Take out the dipstick, and wipe it down with a towel, removing any oil on it
- Insert the dipstick back in the oil chamber, then take it out again
- Look at the tip of the dipstick and the two measurements, which are lines or small holes usually
- If the oil is close to the higher hole or line, that means you've got fresh, full oil
- If it's at the bottom hole, that means you should replace the oil
- If you need just a bit of oil, you can top it off yourself, but follow your vehicle's owner's manual
- For low oil, make sure you come in to our service center and we can perform an oil change for you and make sure everything is functioning properly
Of course you can entrust our service center to help you with all your maintenance needs, so stop in and see us today, where you can also arrange test drives in new Lincoln vehicles.
