Oil dip Stick broke?

[ron350]

The plastic part of the oil dipstick broke on my 96 Regal with the 3800 series 2 motor. This is the second time the yellow plastic part that fits in the oil tube has broken so its time to replace.

 

Does Dorman sell a replacement for the plastic part of the dip stick or will I have to buy a new dip stick at the dealership?

Try a junkyard real quick

mine did the same.

 

$5 at the local junkyard and i got a correct one, though differently shaped handle.

Thanks for the help I will try the junk yard first then the dealer.

I bet the dealer wants about $20. for one.

the L67 in my GP had the same issue. i got one with a different handle from the junkyard. verify it is the same length and you should be good to go.

I wouldnt even think about calling a dealer unless you are too far from a scrapyard, i know they dont really differ between the 3100 and 3800 should be plentiful regardless of series they should all fit.

I think I paid like $12 for a new one from the dealer for my 04.

Mine is currently broken as well. I need a new one before the handle completely comes off from the tube
