Where is the engine oil dipstick located?

The engine oil dipstick is located in the engine compartment. Open the engine hood, and you'll find a yellow pull ring at the front of the engine - that's the oil dipstick. Here's how to operate it: 1. Park the car on level ground and turn off the engine; 2. Pull out the oil dipstick and wipe it clean with a tissue or cloth; 3. Reinsert the dipstick into the oil hole, then pull it out again to check the oil level against the dipstick's markings. If the oil level is between the upper and lower marks, the oil quantity is correct; if the dipstick doesn't reach the lower mark, it means the oil is insufficient and needs to be topped up; if oil covers the area above the upper mark, it indicates overfilling and excess oil needs to be drained.
