The factory dipstick on newer Honda engines is an absolute pain to read, especially right after an oil change. For some reason Honda decided to make the level marked area out of orange plastic; it doesn't hold onto oil well and the oil does not contrast on the orange color well either, making it a challenge to determine what the oil level actually is!
We've resolved that issue and more with our dipstick! It uses an all metal stick with traditional markings on the metal for high and low level points as well as a grid pattern to retain oil making level reading a the quick easy task it should be. Not only that but the dorky orange plastic handle of the factory dipstick is also gone and in its place is our billet aluminum handle! Available in either red or purple, it really helps set off your engine bay aesthetics!
Lastly, we've fine tuned the o-ring fit on our dipsticks to have a slightly stiffer seal than the factory dipstick, so if you're running really high boost and getting a lot of crankcase pressure the dipstick won't blow out and coat your engine bay in oil.
Take caution when checking oil level on a hot engine, the handle does get hot!
Note: If you are using our 10th gen 1.5T oil pan baffle and would like to take advantage of the greater oil capacity it allows, the top of the H on our stick is your new full mark for the extra capacity fill. This only applies to this baffle and no others.
