Checking Engine Oil (ZO6 and ZR1)

A. Engine Oil Dipstick

B. Engine Oil Fill Cap

It is a good idea to check the engine oil level at each

fuel ﬁll. In order to get an accurate reading, the oil must

be warm and the vehicle must be on level ground.

The engine oil dipstick handle is a yellow loop.

The dipstick is located on the dry sump engine oil tank.

See Engine Compartment Overview on page 5-14

for the location of the dry sump engine oil tank.

These vehicles have a racetrack-ready dry sump

engine lubrication system. This high-performance system

operates differently than a standard engine lubrication

system and requires a special procedure when checking

the engine oil level. Follow this procedure closely when

checking the engine oil level.

The engine oil level must be checked when the engine is

warm. Cold oil level in the dry sump tank may not indicate

the actual amount of oil in the system. With this system,

engine oil is contained in an external tank, separate

from the engine. Under normal operating conditions,

the oil pan under the engine does not store any oil.
