Measured oil level
The oil level reading is shown on the segment
display in the Oil measurement menu.
If the segments are filled in green up to the top line
(illustration
A
), the oil level has reached the
maximum mark.
f
Under no circumstances add engine oil.
If the bottom segment is shown in yellow
(illustration
B
), the oil level has reached the
minimum mark.
The message “
Oil level minimum reached
Refill oil
” appears on the multi-function display.
f
Add engine oil immediately.
If the bottom segment is red (illustration
C
), the oil
level has dropped below the minimum mark.
The message “
Oil level below min. Refill oil at
once Do not drive on
” appears on the multi-
function display.
f
Add engine oil immediately.
Top-up quantity
The difference between the minimum and
maximum marks on the segment display is
approx. 1.8 quarts (1.7 liters).
f
Never add more engine oil than required to
reach the maximum mark.
If the segments are shown in yellow up to the
top edge (illustration
D
), this indicates that the
maximum engine filling capacity has been
exceeded. Exceeding the maximum capacity may
result in blue smoke formation and cause long-
term damage to the catalytic converters
depending on the overfill quantity and various
external influences.
If too much engine oil was added, the message
“
Oil level above maximum Consult a
workshop Driving permitted
” appears on the
multi-function display.
f
Have the oil quantity corrected at the next
opportunity.
Please contact an authorized Porsche dealer.
