Hi

Please could someone help me.
I am looking to acquire an oil dipstick that can be used on the 2.0 TDI CGLC engine code.

I have seen many dipsticks available for the older TDi engines with different engine codes but similarly the dipstick tube is located under the engine cover and is covered by a cap. I have been advised by the sellers of these dipsticks that they are not suitable for the CGLC engine.

Audi dealer says that a dipstick is not listed so they can not sell me one.

i know that the oil level can be checked through the MMI but I would still prefer to be able to manually check it.

someone please help.

Thanks in advance for any assistance.

There is a retrofit kit available, have you searched this forum as there are a couple of threads.

Old thread but did anyone successfully aquire a dipstick for checking the oil. I know it will not be able to reside in the tube because of the cover?

Sealey make a generic adjustable dipstick for Audi (adjust the level whilst the MMI shows max and mark it) which is sold by Aceparts (their Product ID: A197142) on following link
