Engine compartment - checking

Some oils and fluids should be checked at regular intervals.

Regular checking

Check the following oils and fluids at regular intervals, e.g. when refuelling:

  • Coolant
  • Engine oil
  • Power steering fluid (not cars with 4-cyl. 2.0 litre engine1)
  • Washer fluid

 Warning

Remember that the radiator fan (located at the front of the engine compartment, behind the radiator) may start automatically some after the engine has been switched off.

Always have the engine cleaned by a workshop. There is a risk of fire if the engine is hot.
