    Unscrew the shiny round top underneath is attached the dipstick and look for shiny stuff. The less shiny the more oil is needed (got to be a trick question). Could not resist. Best

    Only when the engine is running and real hot so you can burn your hand :( Don't drop the shiny stick into the engine bay. :(

    If the instructions in the handbook are unclear you probably should have your dealer show you....

    Funny thread!


    Rant on: (triggered by the title I guess)

    Why are there 2013 cars on the road in July 2012?

    Ferrari is so bizarre sometimes. I was at the Macca dealer yesterday (was more impressed than I expected to be by the car) and asked if the car I was looking at was a 2013. The salesman replied, "well, no...those won't be here till...2013". Hard to argue with that!

    Now I know that some US mfg's put out 2013 in Sept and thereafter, but there have been reports of 2013 Ferrari's for a couple of months now. Kinda silly really.

    Rant off.
