⚙️ Key Features

• Oil dipstick from the Lubricating and Oil System group
• 0.118 kg
• Supersedes 40005818, catalogued earlier as a pipe
• Covers six D series engine applications

🔌 Function

Measures the oil level in the sump, the marks on the blade referenced to that sump's capacity.

⚠️ Common Signs of Failure

• Level readings that do not agree with the oil actually added
• Blade bent, kinked or the marks worn away
• Handle seal perished so oil weeps or crankcase pressure escapes at the tube
• Dipstick a loose fit in its tube, or hard to seat fully
• Blade found broken or its tip missing in the sump

🛠️ Service Notes

• Dipstick length is calibrated to the sump - never substitute one from a different engine, or the level will read wrong
• The old number was catalogued as a pipe, so an older parts list may show it under a different description
• Check the handle seal and the tube's seat while the dipstick is out
