Help reading dipstick
Hello every one,
Ok can any one help me read this dipstick. One side has oil to top of hash marks with small dry spot in the middle. Other side is half way up the hash marks. Running mobile 1 0W40 and mobile 1 filter. This is first check after changing oil to 0W40, changed oil drove it 30 miles then it sat aweek then I checked it and got the reading on dipstick. I used 10 individual quarts when I filled it. So what is the true reading here? Thanks every one. Richie |

If it is in the hash marked area you are good.
It holds 10 quarts. |

Wipe it off, do it again.
Both sides of mine usually read about the same. |

Are you guys putting it in so the hash marks are front and back(facing front and rear bumper) or right to left(pass to driver)?

Try driving it for 30 minutes, get the oil hot, then park it on a perfectly level surface and let it sit for 30-45 minutes and then check it... If you put in 10 qts, you are fine...

After I re-insert it, I spin it once.

Sometimes those dipshitz can be hard to read especially right after a oil change because the oil is almost clear.
