Care for the vehicle you chose. Maintenance, diagnostics and pre-purchase inspection planning for your Maserati Levante, at Foreign Automotive in Kitchener.
Maserati · Levante
The Levante brings Maserati performance to an SUV, with V6, V8 and mild-hybrid versions across its life. Cooling, driveline and suspension assessments must match the installed equipment. We review ride-height symptoms, tyre wear, leaks and maintenance records as part of a practical repair plan.

Symptoms, Known Issues & Repair Planning
These documented conditions and inspection priorities apply to particular engines, years and equipment. They are not a prediction that every Levante will develop a fault. The VIN, symptoms and test results determine the repair.
Documented Condition
M157 / M156 / M161 V6 only; not V8 or Hybrid.
Maserati documents a leak at an oil-pan threaded insert. [1]
Confirm the source before considering an insert repair or a larger assembly.
Documented Condition
Campaign 384; eligible V6 vehicles only.
Certain crossover-pipe caps can leak coolant. [2]
Check campaign history and component applicability; pressure-test current coolant loss.
Documented Condition
Applicable Ghibli / Quattroporte / Levante dampers.
Maserati distinguishes normal light stem lubrication from a defective shock absorber. [3]
Assess the leak pattern and ride complaint before replacing dampers.
Diagnostic Check
V6 / GTS / Trofeo V8 / Hybrid by specification
Identify the gearbox and compare cold and warm symptoms, fluid history and leak locations. A warning or shudder does not establish that the entire unit needs replacement.
Campaigns are VIN-specific. US bulletins and recalls may differ from Canadian coverage; confirm eligibility and completion with the manufacturer. Safety-recall remedies are arranged through its authorized network.

Before you buy
A pre-purchase inspection for your Maserati Levante adds condition and service-history context to a seller’s description. Contact us with the listing and VIN to agree the scope and arrange access.
Inspection scope depends on access, condition and equipment. A PPI records findings at the time; it cannot predict every future repair.
Maintenance, with context
Model year, specification, mileage and use decide the schedule. Bring the service history so the next visit addresses what is due.
Share the VIN, mileage, model year and previous invoices. We identify the applicable manufacturer schedule and any outstanding work.
Fluids, filters and driveline items are selected for the actual powertrain. We do not apply a universal interval across generations.
A warning light, leak or intermittent symptom may need testing before a repair can be quoted. We explain the proposed work and next step.
Document completed work, findings and future priorities so the next service starts with a clear history.
