Oil dip stick location
Hi!
On my C3 the oil dip stick is in a place where I can´t pull it straight out.
It comes out under the power brake reservoir and then goes all the way to the inside of left front fender and the gets stuck there...
Anyone got any tips or tricks?
Can you turn/bend the oil dip stick?

Hi c,
It sounds like perhaps the 'tube' that guides the dip stick into the block may be 'turned' in it's hole so it's dieting the stick incorrectly when you remove it.
Maybe?
Regards,
Alan

Depend IF your have pwoer brake and IF the power brake booster is the CORRECT one for your year model....because there are two designs..and one really does not work well IF your oil dipstick is on the left side of the engine.
