Checking Engine Oil (ZO6, ZR1, and
Grand Sport)
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 6‑14
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. If the vehicle has been parked for an extended
period without the engine being started, some oil will
seep back into the oil pan, reducing the amount of oil
held in the dry sump tank and there could be no engine
oil at all showing on the dipstick. This is normal since
the dipstick is designed to read engine oil level only
after the engine has run long enough to reach normal
operating temperature. Do not add engine oil based on
