Description of Dorman 917 381 Engine Oil Dipstick

Clear marks on the rod promise easy-to-read oil levels. O-ring seals the top of the dipstick, prohibiting contaminants from escaping into the engine oil bay. Application-specific direct replacement for proper fit. Brightly-colored handle makes the dipstick easy to locate under the hood. Original Equipment (OE) Number: 12580810.

This is the best dipstick among dipsticks and tubes

This is definitely the dipstick you use to check the oil level in your car. It is flexible, easy to use and easy to read the oil level. I don't think I can ask for more from an oil dipstick.

Pros
  • Bright handle makes it easy to find the dipstick under the hood
Cons
  • Negative impression

Easier to read than a standard dipstick

I have a GMC Envoy and the standard dipstick has always been difficult to read. This one is much easier. It's very flexible compared to the standard, so it takes a little getting used to. But overall it's an improvement.

Pros
  • Direct replacement for a specific application for a correct fit
Cons
  • Some minor issues

Quality Replacement Oil Dipstick for 4.2TB Envoy Rainier Ascender

Provides a much clearer oil level than the OEM plastic head. I was really surprised that I overfilled my 4.2TB due to inaccurate information from the old one. It is a twisted metal rope that is much easier to put in and take out compared to the old style of spring metal.

Pros
  • Original Equipment (OE) Number: 12580810
Cons
  • Quick Guide
