Before I start messing around with DiY oil dipsticks (as I am only a dabbler NOT a trained mechanic) can you or KarbonKid tell me how the tube attaches to the engine/sump -push fit/screw/weld/cable tie/clip ?????

Why the f@@k didn't BMW do it? They could have added that and put the BMW badges on as stickers to compensate ala 996 GT3 RS.

Just re-thought, the PM you sent me Pip which I have just picked up this afternoon probably referred to this topic, right? (as you didn't mention in your PM what pics you were referring to). If so, I'll try and get some up soon.

Indeed. Yes, sorry I did think that after I sent the personal message but guessed you would work it out.

I look forward to seeing the pictures.
