Hi , could someone please tell me the official VOLVO reason for the .o. rings on the dip stick and the ramifications of not having them there..
does it have any relevance to oil pick up and oil distribution to the working parts of the motor..
this sounds a silly question but I am going somewhere with this,..it's doing my head in.. cheers Pa..
what is the importance of the dipstick and its seals
