Note: The following is a routine procedure. Regularly look under the vehicle to check for signs of developing fluid leaks. Try not to ignore any signs of fluid leaks under the vehicle - these signs indicate problems that need to be addressed immediately.
Caution: When checking the level of any working fluid, the car must be positioned strictly horizontally! Always use the parking brake when leaving the car!
1. Various hydraulic fluids act as working fluids in lubrication, cooling, braking, clutch, heating and air conditioning, windshield washing, etc. systems. Since all fluids are subject to dilution and wear over time, and also gradually become contaminated during normal operation of the systems, it is necessary to periodically replace them completely. Before adjusting the level or replacing, familiarize yourself with the list of recommended fluid grades for use in the car (see Specifications). The liquids filled into the systems at the manufacturer are indicated in the technical documentation of each vehicle.
Note: Opel offers a wide range of different engine types for installation in the models discussed in this Manual. Depending on the equipment, the location of some check points and the layout of individual components in the engine compartment may differ from those shown below. The filler caps for engine oil, coolant, windshield and headlight washer fluid, as well as the handle of the engine oil dipstick, are painted yellow for easy identification.
