Guys,

Could you please let me know how long is the oil level rod?
After many many tries trying to "read" the oil level discovered that the rod is pretty short.
Someone has changed it for a FIAT one (I guess).
Thanks so much.
-DO.

You mean the Q4 oil level rod?

I've measured the oil level rod from a spare Q4 engine and it is just as long as the one in the picture above (524 mm for the metalic part of it)
But my Q4 engine's oil level rod is 10mm shorter (same measurement)...

Looks like you have the same problem as I have.
Definitively my rod is not 524 mm long.
