mark is 1.3 qts (1.2 L).

CAUTION!

Overfilling or underfilling the crankcase will cause
oil aeration or loss of oil pressure. This could damage
your engine.

NOTE:

It is possible for your oil level to be slightly

higher than a previous check. This would be due to diesel

fuel that may temporarily be in the crankcase due to

operation of the diesel particulate filter regeneration

strategy. This fuel will evaporate out under normal

operation.
Never operate the engine with oil level below the “MIN”

mark or above the upper “MAX” mark.
