    Oil Dipstick broke. Help!

    Guest-only advertisement. Register or Log In now!
    As the title suggests my oil dipstick broke. But there's a little piece of it still stuck in the dipstick hole & I can't get a new dipstick in. Any suggestions on how to get the broken piece out?

    Remove the dipstick tube to get it out or try a strong vacuum?

    All Over!

    Or drop the oil pan, then either pull the dipstick downwards, or push it back up through the tube.

    Anyone else have issues with the dipstick breaking? I've gone through 3 in a couple months and they keep breaking at the oil measurement part. Would it be difficult to replace the dipstick tube If that's the issue?
