Title: Anyone know the part number for the oil dipstick?
Post by: wingnutLP on June 12, 2014, 09:52:59 pm
The orange plastic below the o ring on my dipstick has literally crumbled away. Now when I put the stick in the boring slides off and falls down the stick.

Does anyone know the part number of the stick?

Great, looks like there has been a revision

06F115611E

to

06F115611F

Which is I suspect due to the plastic becoming brittle.

Now, does anyone know a reliable parts company that will deliver? My dealer's parts company wants me to come in and pay and then come in again to collect!  Someone must sell this kind of thing on line?

Thanks

Mine did this!  Got a new one for less than a tenner from VW.  Only thing is the new one is yellow not orange...
