A dealer recomended that I scrape the dipstick hard with my finger nail. If the engin was sludged he said I would get a residue with the constency of hard Chocolate under my nail. the Dipstick is very clean. My best friends wife owned the car before me and it has had the oil changed every 3K. Sometimes at the dealer, sometimes at J-lube. In the last year I have been doing lots of stop and go so I figured as long as I change every 3 months or 3k if before that I would be keeping the engin clean.
what other sludge tests should I try besides the retorque? I think the dealer retorqued at the 60K service.
