I've had my 2014 since 2017,,,quite happy and plan to keep it,,presently has 52K,,,does anyone know the engine number?

 

M278

 

That's great thank you,,I did some research,,,checked with my Indy mechanic,,,its a strong reliable engine,,,do you notice low oil level on the dipstick,,,have any secrets to get an accurate reading? 👍

 

These are not oil burners. Not sure why you are having trouble with reading the dipstick. If your oil is fresh use a strong flashlight to help. Pull it, reinsert and pull again

 

Thanks for the response Key,,,I have been told by my mechanic that this version does burn a bit of oil,,,nothing worry some,,,but periodically checking the level is a good idea...Is there a thru the dashboard information check that can be done like I've seen on other models? Seems like a nice trick,,we know these cars have many hidden tricks that are nice.👌🏅

 

It will let you know when the level is low. "Check engine oil at next refueling"

 

Get the engine up to operating temperature and then turn off the engine. Allow the car to cool 5-10 min and then check the dip stick. Checking the engine cold will usually give a low reading.

 

Ok great great answers,,,helped alot,,ran it to Op temperatures,,waited 10 minutes and reading on the stick was just fine...oil is so clean I had to do the check 3 times.

I have to mention,,these engines do burn a bit of oil, it even states such in the manual,,under Engine Oil.. backs up what my mechanic told me a few yrs ago,,most likely from the turbos.
Not a big deal,,,but its worth knowing. 👌
