Both poor reasons I know but as the electronic dipstick hasn't changed in 11000 miles I figure I don't need to bother using the old tried and trusted method
I have never had any problem in checking the oil level by the dipstick. I also co-relate every so often with the electronic dipstick reading and up to now (5500 miles to date) have had no issues with the oil level (MY10 2.4 DrivE)
