RogerH Posted September 19, 2023 Report Share Posted September 19, 2023 (edited) This is a very clever mechanical oil contents thingy. HERE If there is low oil level the barrel of the knob when pulled is RED If there is enough oil then the barrel is green I would like it - but at £50 then I'll have to pass (I do have a dip stick) Roger Edited September 19, 2023 by RogerH Quote Link to post Share on other sites

My Volvo doesnt have a dipstick, level check is through ignition push button. Stuart. Edited September 19, 2023 by stuart Quote Link to post Share on other sites
