haha, good luck....worst design ever.

Look along the left side of the intake piping for someting with a yellow circle on it. Pull that up, and try your best not to get crap falling into your oil (like I said, good luck)

LOL haha

Whats the use of finding it when you can't even check the oil lever properly.
By the time you take it out, the oil on the dipstick is dry or screwed up to where you cant read it.

Yeah, it's the worst dipstick ever. I almost panicked at the gas station when I pulled it out to check my oil for the first time and I couldn't get the darn thing back in and there were people lined up to use the pump.
