How to remove a broken oil dipstick?
Needle Nose Pliers are a great alien technology, it would brought to us by the Vulcans along with Velcro.
The dipstick tube is held on by one bolt. Simply undo the bolt and remove the tube, push the broken dipstick out from the bottom.
Um Gum at the end of the stick? Try that. Also don't you have a magnet? Mechanic/DSMer's greastest tool.
IF all else fails, drop the pan, and get em out, and take a look around while down there

im afraid that is not possible, i looked down there and say AT LEAST 5 Rusted bolts, and belive me 5 headless bolts in the oil pan are not something im looking forward, i was tinkin of removing it without removing the oil pan, so i will take the bolt out tomorrow and see if i solve itswade said:IF all else fails, drop the pan, and get em out, and take a look around while down there

I know this thread is old but I figured I would just ask the question here. A piece of rubber off my dipstick feel down the tube. It's about have the size of a dime. Will it just come out in the oil pan. Would anything happen if I turned the car on? Sorry bout the noobish question. I don't have a place to remove the oil pan in my neighborhood apartment complex because of the strict rules for working on cars there.
