Looks normal to me. I've had a few cars with a twisted dipstick just like that.
What model is it from?

That's probably because yours is diesel.

Back to topic. :wink:
Thought I'd share this for better or for worse.
Mileage 1140 miles.
Had an oil change with Motul VW Specific 5W30 504 00, new filter, plug + Boron Silk engine additive + Boron Silk fuel additive to full tank of BP Ultimate 97RON. Done at my VW dealership.
Running like a dream. So very smooth now & probably due to new oil in engine.
The other stuff will take 500 to 1000 miles to be felt I am told.
Ahhh! :smiley:

PS: Also collected my new Ed30 Manual shift. Looks ver' nice. :grin:

Get it fitted later in the week and post pictures.
Now, and you won't believe this, maybe I prefer the one already in the car due to the red bits on it! :shocked:
I am really becoming a James Gould copycat. :rolleyes:
