Maintaining Your McLaren
Fluid Topping Up
6.5
NOTE: Once the oil level check has
been completed and returned a
value do not continue to test the
system. This may lead to aeration of
the oil and return a false value.
5. To end the oil level check release the
throttle pedal and return to the
Vehicle info menu by moving the menu
stalk back.
If the engine oil is below the target level
stop the engine and top up the oil in
accordance with the following procedure.
Topping Up The Engine Oil
WARNING: If the engine is stopped
due to the Eco Start-Stop System be
aware that the engine may restart
without warning.
WARNING: The engine must be
switched off before carrying out the
engine oil top up process.
WARNING: Do not put more than 8
liters into the oil system. If you have
put 8 liters of oil into the vehicle and
the oil status on the Driver Display
still displays low oil level, contact
your McLaren retailer immediately.
WARNING: When topping up do not
pour the oil too fast or choke the oil
fill tube.
WARNING: The oil filler cap must be
fitted correctly.
ENVIRONMENTAL: When topping up
take care not to spill any oil. Oil must
not be allowed to escape into the soil
or waterways.
1. Open the tonneau cover. See Tonneau
Cover, page 1.9.
2. Unscrew the engine oil filler cap.
3. Top up with the correct quantity of
engine oil. Refer to Top Up Quantity,
page 6.6 and Engine Oil Specification,
page 7.9.
4. Wait two minutes to allow the oil to
flow from the filler tube into the tank.
This will ensure an accurate oil level
reading.
5. Check the Driver Display to ensure the
oil level is correct.
