370z dipstick, what a relief!

[Adrian@TORQEN]

Oh man, can I just thank the engineer who re-designed the 370z oil dipstick! So easy the read the oil level now, even Wasso would be able to do it!

Totally agree, but....wait a minute......are you feeling ok adrian.......am ii mistake or does this mean you actually went and checked your oil level.... nice one gz

I am sure the HR has a hole in it as well!

[daveparkin]

Just the same as an HR 350, isn't it?

[Jp606]

Indeed it does.

[Adrian@TORQEN]

Not saying about the holes, just the way the stick itself is designed. I'll just take a photo with both, one sec!

He got used to checking it - had to do it every 3 hours in his 350

350 dipstick is shite but works ok if you check the oil first thing in the morning when its cold and the oil has settled.

Agree that the dipstick is a horrible design and impossible to get an accurate level reading, my drive way is on a slope so can't get a reading after leaving overnight to cool.

Yeh the 350 dipstick was an absolute nightmare, makes you wonder what part of the Nissan design team thought that up.

As I said, just like an HR 350

 

Its even in the same place on the engine.
