Now I am confused.
I have an 02 Base with a dipstick.
I have been told to check it while hot and while cold.
Which is it?
And am I correct in that it should be at the top of the "bar" on the dipstick?
The electronic level indicator is all over the place with different readings under different conditions (car sitting cold all night, engine warm, after filling up, etc.)
I have yet to figure out what is the proper and most accurate way to check the level.
I tried "Pro drivers" method last night, which was an entirely new way to check the oil level.
Any further input is welcome.
