Wear Spot on Oil Dipstick

[Andy13186]

If your car has the 'TICK' it'd be interesting to pull the dipstick back about 6-8" when it's ticking and see if it quit....Hmmm

mine had the tick but ceratec fixed it. so I dont think it has anything to do with the dipstick.

Makes it slide off the stick instead of clicking it...LOL

@fmc_smt ... thanks for the photo.

The wear spot on the dipstick looks to be closer to the end of the dipstick than where the tube stops. I'm thinking the wear spot is from the dipstick rubbing/rattling on something below the end of the tube ... like on the windage tray maybe.

Looks like in the photo the "windage tray" is the pan assembly and where the tube itself stops.
So do the EB's now have the tick too?
