[QUOTE="Kapy, post: 14773166, member: 144046"] These cars have the most inaccurate oil dipstick I have ever seen on a car. One pull you are all good. Dip again and pull you are not. I have resulted to just be happy to be in between on the marks. You try to fill to the top you will overfill. Then you will spend endless attempst of loosening drain plug just enough to drip out enough oil to re-measure. Easiest thing to just do is realize the car is 8.5qt car. Drain the oil put 7.5 in it because a quart is in the lines and just be good with it. Going from the stick on this car will drive you nuts. I don't understand it. I hope if somebody on here with some engineering background with this car could explain why this dipstick is so all over the place. [/QUOTE]
