    Checked oil at 4K miles. Seems to be a little low. Below top hole on dip stick. I s this normal? Dip stick is a pain to pull in and out. My Tundra was much easier. Thanks

    Do you need to know, or care?
    While you're at, ask him about paint color or how he likes that new car smell.

    Make sure your holding on to your dipstick while you wait for his reply!

    Shows in the manual it is safe between the dot indents on the dipstick.

    If I orient the dipstick right, it makes the curve and slides right in.
