Pleasant Surprise - new dipstick tip cover Posted by CrNiFe [Email] (#408) [Profile/Gallery] (more from CrNiFe) on Fri, 15 Dec 2006 19:24:09 Members do not see ads below this line. - Help Keep This Site Online - Signup |
As noted elsewhere on the board, SAAB dipsticks can be frustrating because the oil level can't be seen against the dark plastic background.
Imagine how I was pleasantly surprised, when I ordered a replacement stick for my MY99 9-5 2.3lpt SW, that the tip is now light grey. Part number 55557302 in the GM system, at least in Canada. And you can even see if the oil is dirty now!
Sorry, don't know it this applies to later models or not - the other one on the shelf in the parts department at Midtown looked like it was dark tipped.
Best 12 buck I ever spent on my car!
Merry Christmas and best of the holidays to all, from balmy Toronto
