2013-2016 Fiesta/Escape/Transit Connect/2013 Fusion – 1.6L GTDI – Engine Oil Dipstick Reads Above Maximum Mark
2013-2016 Fiesta, Escape, Transit Connect and 2013 Fusion vehicles with a 1.6L Gasoline Turbocharged Direct Injection (GTDI) engine may exhibit an engine oil level reading that is up to 8 mm above the maximum mark on the engine oil dipstick when the engine is filled with the correct amount of oil.
This is a normal characteristic of this engine.
Do not lower the oil level to the maximum mark on the engine oil dipstick if the engine contains the correct amount of oil.
Adding oil is not required if the level is above the minimum mark on the engine oil dipstick.
Refer to the owner’s manual for proper engine oil capacity.
