If you want to protect the internal components of your Toyota vehicle, as any responsible Tallahassee driver should, then you owe it to yourself to routinely check your car oil. Read on below to find out how to check car oil with the expert service technicians here at Peter Boulware Toyota.
Although newer Toyota vehicles have electronic oil monitors that eliminate the need for traditional dipsticks, every model and brand is different, so you should consult your owner’s manual before checking your oil level. If you’re learning how to check car oil manually, just follow the basic instructions outlined below:
Maintaining the proper oil level is absolutely critical to the future performance of your vehicle. Experts recommend getting an oil change twice a year, depending on the model and driving frequency. However, you should check your oil at least once a month. That way, you can always rest assured that there are no oil leaks and your car has ample oil.
Have you noticed that your car’s hood is burning hot to the touch, even during the fall or winter seasons? Is there steam billowing out from under the hood? Your car could potentially have an oil leak that’s causing the engine to overheat. In this case, your best bet is to schedule a service appointment at Peter Boulware Toyota immediately to have the problem taken care of!
Now that you know how to check car oil levels, it’s equally important to know how to reset the oil change light on your vehicle. However, you’ll only want to reset the oil change light if you’ve actually changed your oil. Choosing to ignore your oil change light warning or miss an oil change could result in serious damage to your vehicle.
