Im not quite sure how I managed it, unfortunately nothing quite so exciting as duelling with musketeers! :lol: I'd checked the oil and was just trying to get dipstick back in when it wouldn't go all the way down, when I pulled it out the bottom end with the notches was missing and thats the bit I've...

Hi, i have a dipstick issue and can't find any info on how to fix, hoping someone here can help. I have a 1.9 petrol t25 and the last inch of the dipstick has snapped off inside and is well and truly wedged. :x Oil tube was removed and its not in there its further down.
