Am I the only one who finds it difficult to accurately read the dipstick on the V6 engine? No matter what I try it just comes out with the plastic part covered in oil, even though I suspect it's not full.
The green plastic does show up the oil better than the black plastic on the earlier models, but I'm still not convinced of the oil level.

If you can, read the level first thing in the morning without starting the engine. The dipstick will show the level first time, after you wipe it its pretty useless.
