Help with checking oil level
Sounds like a pretty simple task right? Not according to my dealer. I mentioned at my last oil change that the level was 1/4 inch above the bottom cylinder on the dip stick, which is closer to 1/2 above the max line. He told me Ford recommends checking the oil by inserting the dip stick and stopping when the base of the handle hits the dip stick tube, not inserting the stick in all of the way. When we did this the level of the oil fell to just above the max line.
Problem is after they changed the oil the level was within normal with the dip stick inserted all the way.
Am I being mislead here?
