JRESHOW | Can't read oil Dipstick - FIX @JRESHOW | Uploaded July 2021 | Updated October 2024, 1 week ago.
If you're having trouble reading your car's oil dipstick then try these easy steps. Rough up the end of the dipstick with a file or even concrete. If you have a angle grinder you can put a blade on it and make a few marks on it for even better results. When you go to check your oil, pull out the dipstick, wipe clean and wait 5 minutes before inserting dipstick. This should fix your problem!
