How often should you check the oil level?
3 min readRegularly checking the oil level is one of the cheapest ways to protect the engine. Unfortunately, many drivers only look at the dipstick once a warning light comes on.
How often to check?
A good habit is to check the level once a month and before every longer trip. It takes a minute and lets you catch any loss in time.
When more often?
- Older cars with high mileage
- Engines that consume oil
- Before a holiday trip or a long journey
- After noticing stains under the car
