2007 OEM dipstick
Hi Everyone, Just purchased a used 2007 Yaris and trying to check the oil. It very hard to read the plastic yellow dipstick. Is the OEM dipstick a plastic one? Thanks!

yea, the oem dipstick is a yellow plastic. What you do is remove it, wipe it, then dip it again and check. you'll get a clearer reading then trying to read it after just removing it without wiping it.

Yes I also find reading mine requires it being held just right in the light.
Especially new oil on the yellow plastic dipstick. |
