It looks like the seal on my dipstick has gone,
What do I do?

Can I replace it?

How can I replace it?

bit of gaffer tape? ;) might be worth checking the crankcase vacuum though - I wonder if your breather's worn out?

First thing I checked and changed, its defiantly coming from round the dip stick.

Might sound silly, I've always found mine don't go in quite far enough, as the dipstick is slightly too long, I've cut 'about' 5mm off the bottom and it sits a treat in it's seat

Hmmm. :(

Hope you've recalibrated the dipstick...
