About Oil Dipsticks

The Alfa Romeo oil dipstick is a long rod/tube like apparatus used to measure the oil levels in the internal combustion engine. 

The oil dipstick is located beneath the bonnet, contained in the dipstick tube. Usually it has a brightly coloured yellow or orange top to make it easy to find. 

It is advisable to check the oil levels weekly and keep oil levels regularly topped up. Before putting the dipstick back in the tube to check the level of oil, the dipstick should be cleaned with a cloth to remove any oil. Oil levels are checked by lowering the dipstick into the dipstick tube then pulling it out to check the oil level mark. Dipsticks usually have either holes or lines at the bottom of the dipstick which are used to indicate oil levels. The oil should register somewhere between the top and bottom lines on the dipstick. If the oil levels are close to the bottom line this means the oil need adding to. It is advisable to keep the engine oil always well topped up to enable the engine to run at top performance and to avoid damage to engine components. 

The oil dipstick can be easily damaged when removing other components and often needs to be replaced due a broken oil dipstick that is stuck in the dipstick tube. The Alfa Romeo oil dipstick is the ideal replacement part for the make and model of your vehicle. 

Alfa Romeo trivia

• There was a long period where Alfa Romeo simply stopped selling cars to the USA. Exports stopped in 1995 and didn’t resume again until 2015 when they launched the 4C sports car.
• The Alfa Romeo logo has some really weird imagery. There are dashes of the Milanese coat of arms, and a terrifying picture of a snake eating a man. That image comes from the Visconti family crest, who used to rule Milan.
• The lighter designs of Alfa Romeos has seen the company get a lot of racing success. They have performed exceptionally well at Le Mans, the Mille Miglia, and the Vanderbilt Cup. Perhaps their personal favourite victory was the 1923 win at the Targa Florio, a famously challenging competition.
• In the 1960s, Alfa Romeo shifted their designs and started manufacturing a line of more luxurious models. One of the most popular was the Alfa Romeo 2600, one of which was even owned by the Pope.
• Alfa is an acronym, standing for Anonima Lombarda Fabbrica Automobili, but few people are aware of where the word Romeo came from. It’s actually the surname of the Italian engineer Nicola Romeo, who bought the company as WWI was raging.
