Help! My Mechanic Changed Engine Oil Through Dipstick. by somez(m): 5:03pm On May 15, 2022 |
Greetings everyone. Please I am writing this with a worried heart. I left my car with my mechanic to change oil and left to buy some other things for the car servicing. Coming back, behold I found my mechanic ( he's boy actually) pouring the engine oil through the dipstick! I almost collapsed. Though I drove the car home with no issues, I'm still very worried. Would this cause any damage to the engine? Thanks and appreciate your response. 6 Likes 3 Shares

That’s a practical example of THINKING OUTSIDE THE BOX. That guy just demonstrated an alternative means of proffering solution incase the usual or conventional doesn’t work. That guy would be a better president because Nigeria needs a president who can multitask and use unconventional to achieve great success. 145 Likes 7 Shares |

![]() Just like in insemination, the only aim is to get the semen in; either through a syringe, a tube or straight from the preek. There's no difference between a normally ejaculated baby and an artificially inseminated one. So as long as he changed the oil filter, you shouldn't be bothered how the new oil got into into the engine. 146 Likes 16 Shares |

It is not something overly drastic, Just make sure you keep an eye on your oil level as often as possible if you have a leak. 9 Likes 8 Shares |

Praxis758: I think the act is counterproductive as it will consume more time why not open the engine top and pour in from there seeing that sef I may think he did not remove the oil filter or did he also drained the oil through the dipstick pipe? Perhaps the car’s engine room is so sophisticated that he does not know where supposed oil inlet is. Most of these mechanics na junkies 22 Likes |

somez:To sin by silence, when they should protest, makes cowards of men Why didnt you protest? Why didnt you correct him? Why didnt you ask him what's the reason, why he didnt pour the oil into the car's engine, using the opening next to the dipstick? You could have pointed out the picture shown below to him and ask what's the reason, why that entry point wasnt used? Personal text: Jesus is not a theologian.

Not bad. ATF is poured through dipstick too. Maybe he didn't want to waste time removing those rug and plastics that cover the engine of new vehicles. 3 Likes 1 Share |
