Oil Level ZL1 1LE
Hey Everyone have a quick question and need some input. Have been checking my oil level regularly on my 2021 ZL1 1LE, and when i have it sitting over night or even for a week the level is at the photo in the picture. When I drive the car and check after it sits for two hours or so it shows the level being full. Oil pressure at idle on a hot motor is right at 30 PSI. Should i add oil or leave as is? Its within operating range but my OCD kicks in when looking at the dipstick, but I don't want to overfill it either. What are your recommendations? Thank you

Leave it alone until it’s at the add mark. By then it will probably be time to change it.

You do not want to overfill it. After an oil and filter change. Mine is right there after completely draining (2 hours). Adding 10 quarts. If you pull the dipstick out, wipe it off. Let it sit for a half hour or more, then check it again. You may get a more accurate reading. At least thats been my experience. Idle oil pressure when hot (at least 190 degree oil temp) is at 30 lbs on mine. My car is a 2019 ZL1 "non"1LE Tyrolblue67 |
