How to Measure the Engine Oil Level in a Panamera?
2 Answers
Panamera engine oil level measurement method: 1. Push the body computer selector lever forward to display OIL on the dashboard; 2. Push forward again to display two messages: Startmeasurement and Info; 3. Select Startmeasurement, push forward, and you can check the engine oil. The Panamera is a large car under the Porsche brand, with dimensions of 5049 mm in length, 1937 mm in width, and 1423 mm in height, and a wheelbase of 2950 mm. The Panamera features a front-engine, rear-wheel-drive layout, with a double-wishbone independent front suspension and a multi-link independent rear suspension.
I've been driving my Panamera for several years, and checking the oil level is super convenient. After parking and turning off the engine, just wait for it to cool down a bit, then find the oil check function on the steering wheel or the central control screen and press a button. The screen will display an oil level bar, which should be between the min and max marks to be considered normal. This electronic system is much more hassle-free than the old dipstick method—no need to pull it out, wipe it, and reinsert it. I recommend checking it every two weeks, especially before long trips, to ensure the oil level is sufficient. If it's low, it might indicate oil burning or a minor leak, so it's best to get it checked at the shop promptly. Also, pay attention to the oil quality during regular maintenance, as insufficient oil can lead to engine overheating and part damage. Developing this habit can help your car run longer and smoother.
