You’re names in black so yes ?

 

[Podney]

I’ve often had trouble getting mine IN, but I’ve never had trouble getting it OUT!
Boom,boom.

I've just come off the phone with Eva from Fiat Commercial. After explaining my problem she went quiet for 30 seconds (obviously crying with laughter) and then came back to say she would order a New Dipstick and Sheath (no less) for my rig...

In that case you will be removing the old one as I suggested ?

Old Sheath needs removal from casing. I ordered a new Sump n Gasket as well just to get this sorted.
I have a garage mechanic who assures me he can assist in replacing my Dipstick and Sheath if I'll let him in my rig!

Why on earth does he need to be inside, everything's under the bonnet?

 

[Calamaster]

Well, technically 'inside' is within the confines of the Motorhome and not an exterior feature....
So he wants to get in me Bay then

Funny you should say that.

I once had a car that, unbeknown to me, had been leaking petrol into the oil sump. I had the bonnet up with the engine running, when there was an almighty bang as the petrol fumes in the sump ignited. The dipstick whistled past my ear like a missile and shot a couple of hundred feet across the playing field I was parked next to.

Ah.... now I understand why you chose “The Scream” for an avatar.

"Excuse me Mr bookshop owner. Have you got the new book about premature ejaculation."

"Sorry, it's not in yet."

"Yes, that's the one "

I feel for you

Did you give him a hand, well a finger or two ?

Or maybe tweezers ?

Every time i see this thread title I think of Rodney

 

[Silver-Fox]

Don’t you believe it

I’m working with a bloke that’s a spanner monkey.
He’s told me of ways of opening cars I’d never thought of.

Even high end Beemers without even a scratch ?

 

[MyrtleGuru]

Ah.... now I understand why you chose “The Scream” for an avatar.

Yes, in the picture I am just checking that I still have both ears and the dipstick hasn't taken one off on its way past.

 

[Calamaster]

Maybe some idiot who had the sump off damaged it?

I have a feeling you may be right, so ordered a new SUMP n Gasket as well (Sump rusty anyway and leaking.

You're going to save a fortune on servicing if the bonnet release cable breaks then.
Any bonnet can be opened from outside given time and tools
