Key Features & Benefits

• Exact Fitment: The dipstick is calibrated to match the oil level markings of Audi, Seat, Skoda, VW, and related models, ensuring accurate readings every time.
• Durable Construction: Made from high‑grade alloy steel with a corrosion‑resistant coating, it withstands repeated use without degradation.
• Ergonomic Design: The funnel shape guides oil into the engine while the dipstick’s handle provides a comfortable grip for quick and safe removal.
• Clear Markings: Bold, laser‑etched “MIN” and “MAX” indicators are visible even in low light conditions.
• Universal Compatibility: Suitable for engines ranging from 1.2L to 1.8L, including both gasoline and diesel variants.

Installation & Usage Instructions

1. Preparation: Warm the engine slightly (not hot) to allow oil to flow freely. Ensure the vehicle is parked on a level surface.
2. Insert the Funnel: Place the funnel into the oil filler cap, aligning it with the opening. This prevents spills during refilling.
3. Add Oil: Pour the recommended oil type through the funnel until the level reaches just below the dipstick’s “MAX” mark.
4. Remove the Dipstick: Pull the dipstick out gently, wiping it with a clean cloth to remove excess oil.
5. Read the Level: Observe where the oil film ends on the dipstick. If it lies between the “MIN” and “MAX” lines, the level is correct.
6. Re‑insert Dipstick: Push the dipstick back into the tube until it reaches the bottom, then pull out again to confirm the reading.

Maintenance & Care Tips

• After each use, rinse the dipstick with warm water and dry thoroughly to prevent rust.
• Avoid using abrasive cleaners that could damage the markings.
• If the dipstick becomes bent or warped, replace it immediately to maintain accurate readings.
