Attention! Before each check of the engine oil level, the dipstick should be wiped with a rag. The vehicle must be level. The check should be carried out no earlier than five minutes after turning off the engine.
The engine oil level on the dipstick must be between the lower mark (min) and top (max).
Engine oil consumption - a maximum of 1 liter per 1000 kilometers.
Oil consumption depends on driving style and can only be determined after a sufficiently long mileage.
The transmission oil level in an automatic transmission does not need to be checked. In case of oil leakage from the box or if there are problems with gear shifting, contact the workshop.
If the coolant temperature warning light comes on on the instrument panel, it indicates that the coolant temperature has exceeded 130°C.
In this case, the engine should be turned off and allowed to cool. After that, you should check the level of coolant in the expansion tank and replenish its volume.
If the coolant level is normal, then the cause of overheating may be a failure of the radiator fan motor. Check fan fuse and replace if necessary.
If the coolant level is normal, and the malfunction cannot be eliminated on its own, then after the engine has cooled down, you can continue driving at low speed to the nearest workshop.
If the warning light comes on, stop again, turn off the engine and let it cool down. If the traffic situation permits, prolonged idling, frequent stops and excessively slow travel should be avoided.
Attention! Driving without coolant is not allowed, because this is fraught with overheating and engine damage. If the coolant level drops frequently or significantly, the cause must be identified and corrected.
Checking the coolant level should be done with the vehicle level. If the liquid is cold, then its level should not be higher than mark 2 on the wall of expansion tank 1. The level of hot coolant is approximately 1.5 cm above mark 2 on the tank.
If the fuel reserve warning light on the instrument panel comes on when the engine is running, it indicates that only a reserve reserve remains in the fuel tank.
If the diesel engine control unit malfunction indicator light comes on, there is a malfunction in the power supply system and the engine is not running at full power.
In this case, you should check the power system in the workshop as soon as possible.
When a turn signal bulb burns out on a vehicle or trailer, the warning light on the instrument panel flashes at an accelerated rate.
If the brake pad wear warning light comes on, the brake pads have almost reached the wear limit.
It is recommended that you contact a workshop to replace the pads as soon as possible.
If the brake system warning light on the instrument panel is on when the engine is running, the parking brake lever may not be released or there may not be enough brake fluid in the expansion tank.
When the ABS warning light comes on, the ABS is defective and not functioning. In this case, the braking system remains effective, but the wheel lock protection does not work.
If the ABS does not work, then the anti-roll bar is also disabled (ESP). In this case, when the engine is running, not only the ABS warning light, but also the BAS/ESP light is on. It is recommended that you contact the workshop as soon as possible.
Attention! When the battery voltage drops below 10 volts, the ABS light on the instrument panel also lights up and the ABS is disabled. As soon as the battery charge increases, the light will turn off.
Brake booster (BAS) and stability stabilization system (ESP) have a common signal light, so if it is constantly on when the engine is running, then the BAS or ESP is faulty.
Attention! Both systems can be disabled. In the event of a shutdown or malfunction in the AS, the braking system functions normally. If the ESP fails, the engine's effective power may be reduced.
In the event of a malfunction, ABS, BAS and ESP are disabled.
