The Engine Oil Dipstick is the metal rod that lets you check your Nissan's oil level. This rod goes down the dipstick tube and into your oil pan, where it can measure your oil. Dipsticks have T-shaped or oval handles, making them easy to pull out and examine. Your Engine Oil Dipstick will have distinct markings that show you the minimum and maximum levels your oil should fall within. An Engine Oil Dipstick also lets you visually examine your oil for sludge and debris so you can check that the fluid is clean and in good condition.
The dipstick itself doesn't affect the performance of your vehicle, so you likely won't notice you need to replace your Nissan Engine Oil Dipstick until you have to use it. If your dipstick is bent or damaged, you should purchase a new one. Because the Engine Oil Dipstick exists to help you make sure you have the correct amount of oil in your vehicle, it's necessary that you can see the markings on it without difficulty. Illegible markings are another reason to get a replacement.
Your Nissan Engine Oil Dipstick helps you carry out important maintenance tasks, and want to get a replacement that is made to work with your specific vehicle. Shopping genuine OEM parts is an easy way to find a quality Engine Oil Dipstick and other replacement parts custom-made for your Nissan.
