How ya gonna install it? Drill a hole through the cap they've installed where the old one was and put a tube in there down to the sump? Sounds like a very expensive procedure that isn't going to hit the aftermarket guys at all.
Toolpants (Jeff) says he doesn't use his physical dip stick any longer and always goes by the dash display. I can't believe this though. Here's why:
The other night, a buddy asked me to run him to the pharmacy so we took off in my boxster. While waiting for him in the parking lot, engine hot and up to temp, I turned it off and then back on to the acc. for the dash lights to see what the oil level was. It registered very low, just one bar above the bottom line.
Took my buddy home and went to my house and into the garage and repeated the process. Second time it showed the level at one bar below the top line! So I went to the dip stick and it read full.
I truly have no idea which one to believe or use these days. I just keep watching it considering I have a small oil leak on the driver's side cam cover gasket.
