Eh up all,
Well for those who can remember my small challenge with the water pump change (
) all is well and car is running sweet.
However I’ve finally lost this will to live with the worst oil dip stick I’ve ever seen
Being paranoid after my slight miss hap I’ve been checking oil and water weekly until I’d convinced myself all was well.
Ive finally lost the plot with trying to easily read the oil level - I think I’m an expert now in adjusting the stick to ambient light levels and squinting for ages to figure out where the chuff the level is - FF$ sake there has got to be a better solution
Who in gods name thought it was a bright idea to build an oil coloured dip stick


Can anyone tell me the later models have more sensible coloured dip sticks and if there are what age plate these start as I’ll buy one gladly. ( You’ve no idea how thoses last three words hurt a Yorkshire man)
Thanks in advance for any inputs
