Tricky oil sticky?

HIHO · 01-06-2002, 10:20 PM

Hey fellow Legacy owners! I have a quick question, does anyone else have a tricky oil dipstick? I will check it in my driveway(looks very level) facing my house and it is 3/4 a quart low. Turn car around facing away from the house and it is right on the money. I know it has something to do with a difference in level sitting in my drive but it sure is touchy. Who else has this problem?

Your engine oil dipstick should talk to my ATF dipstick. Maybe they are long lost twins.

It will read very high and then read very low and everywhere in-between EXCEPT for the accurate level.
