I find the dipstick in my 08 S TDV6 model bloody useless as it is very difficult to see the oil level . The surface tension of the red plastic balls does not allow the oil to adhere properly and one get variable level readings every time the dipstick is replaced and withdrawn. This is especially prevalent when the oil is new and clean.
Has anyone else found the dipstick problematic?
