But i would love a dipstick. It's amazing how we are conditioning to read the oil level on a dipstick, gives us a digital display and somehow, we still yearn for the missing dipstick........even when we find the cars very oil efficient and not had to top them up.

I just think its a matter of trust and good practice.Good practice to check the oil with a dipstick and no trust in the digital fandango sorry but there you are.

A very good mate of mine who sadly passed away had a brand new engine out of peugeot over a perod of a few thousand miles kept telling him to add oil turns out it was overfilled before imploding. It was hushed up three year old car no quibbles after a few e mails.
