Good source for a new dipstick

Posted

 I'm in need of a new dipstick. I leaned on mine and broke the handle off. I was able to get the remainder out of the tube. The tube itself is fine. Just need a new dipstick.

 I checked @Genos Garage but the one they have says tou have to pull the handle off the new one and put it on the oem metal part.

I never lean on a dipstick.  You're not supposed to.

 

However, once in awhile my wife leans on a dipstick.

 Thanks @IBMobile, I think I was having a moment of laziness. 

 Seem most have the "new" part number which is shorter. May just order from Genos and swap the handle to insure accuracy. 

 @Tractorman, there is more to add to that but I will keep it clean here on the site. :lmao:

 Ordered the new dipstick from Genos Garage. I'll have to swap the handles but not a big deal. At least it will be fixed and I know it to be accurate.
