Any suggestions how to retrieve the lower part of the dipstick from the tube? dave284 Enthusiast / Moderator Aug 9, 2008, 1:33 PM Post #2 of 5 (2162 views) Re: Broken dipstick Sign In You could try a telescpopic magnet, Autozone have these at the counter for about two bucks and if that doesn't get it....plan on removing the oil pan. way2old Veteran / Moderator Aug 9, 2008, 3:04 PM Post #3 of 5 (2157 views) Re: Broken dipstick Sign In You can get needle nose pliers that have a long reach also. They are more expensive tho. Being way2old is why I need help from younger minds Jeff Norfolk Enthusiast Aug 9, 2008, 3:41 PM Post #4 of 5 (2156 views) Re: Broken dipstick Sign In Try to blow a bit of compressed air though the oil pan hole while someone else taps on the side of the dip stick tube. I have had good success with this method in the past when I managed an oil change and repair shop.
