Description of Dorman 917 442 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: 1130100072.

Waste of Money on my review.

As a result of my tests, I determined that this dipstick was completely inaccurate and unreliable, leading to incorrect oil levels and potential damage to my engine. The only positive is that it looks sleek and matches the aesthetics of my engine. The cons far outweigh the pros in this case, and I would not recommend this product.

Pros
  • Easy to install and use.
Cons
  • Accuracy of the oil level reading may vary.

Disappointed - Engines and Engine Parts

The dipstick is too short for my 2003 Mercedes Benz E320 W211. The dashboard shows 7.5 Qts. The dipstick hasn't reached the oil yet. The recommended maximum vehicle capacity is 8 liters. Did you send me the wrong dipstick?

Pros
  • Parts
Cons
  • Functionality

It appears to be identical to the Mercedes OEM dipstick

. The dipstick has the same dimensions as the original. It fit perfectly in the dipstick tube and it was about half what the local Mercedes dealer needed.

Pros
  • . Engine parts
Cons
  • . Minor repair options
