Dipstick ???

one off my customers came in today with his new D4 , very nice !! he asked me if i could help him out as he didn't want to look a T**T and call the stealer !!

his problem was he could not find the dipstick

well i searched for him and i could not find it, not wanting to seem foolish i told him Land rover have a policy of only one dipstick and his was situated behind the steering wheel !!!!!

i am assuming the on board computer does it for you but would appreciate some assistance if some one can help ?? TO DARE IS TO DO

Don't believe the D4 or new RRS have dipsticks, he'll have to rely on a sensor and a light on the dash Former Mod/Member, with the most post & Chicken George Arch nemesis

most BM's are like this now - you can scroll through the computer and it gives you a level - problem is it never seamed to go down when I had one and I was always wondering if it actually had any oil Shocked Freelander 2 TD4 Auto, SE, Narvik Black, Alpaca full leather, Rear Headrest Entertainment System, 6 CD, 18 HSE Wheels, Privicy tints
