Engine oil

In 4T engines, engine oil is used to lubricate the distribution elements, main bearings and thermal group.
An insufficient quantity of oil can cause serious damage to the engine itself. In all four-stroke
engines, a loss of efficiency in oil performance and consumption should be considered normal. Con-
sumption can particularly reflect the conditions of use (i.e. when driving at "full acceleration" all the time,
oil consumption increases). The replacement frequencies provided for by the maintenance programme
are defined, depending on the total contents of oil in the engine and average consumption measured
following standardised methods. In order to prevent any problems, we recommend checking oil
level more frequently than indicated in the Scheduled Maintenance table or before setting off
on long journeys. The vehicle is, however, equipped with an oil pressure warning light on the
instrument panel.
